You would think a major market like that would be great all the time.

I wouldn't say the worst hands down. The Jets and Mets are also really bad.
As well as Chicago teams. Bears and Bulls.
But I get the point. They overpayed. They could of got Gerald Green at 3 million a season and he may be more productive.

God, the Knicks are hilarious.

Post by: Who on July 07, 2017, 07:39:38 AM: What the hell! Crazy. Hardaway Jr is noting more than a good bench wing.

Almost $20 million a year for a bench wing? Jesus.

Knicks should have kept Phil Jackson.

OK good. Atlanta was in danger of falling too far. In spite of NYK disfunctionality, they still have Porzingis and Melo. That said, I hope ATL signs more players.

Post by: vjcsmoke on July 08, 2017, 04:52:00 PM: I guess Atlanta not willing to pay. Knicks paying big money but hard to see it making enough of a difference with how bad the knicks are.

Post by: mnshyn on July 08, 2017, 04:59:37 PM: Woj said they won’t match:

Atlanta will not match New York's $71M offer sheet to Tim Hardaway Jr., but official notification still hours away, sources tell ESPN.

Post by: TheSundanceKid on July 08, 2017, 06:29:35 PM: Perhaps Atlanta might show interest in KCP? Even if they intend on stinking this year they aren't Philly, they need players on the court
