Well I'd prefer Amir Johnson to Afflalo so I guess that's a good thing.  But lets see if Monroe goes to NY.

That seems dirt cheap. I know he had a down year, and his defense is overrated, but that's pretty reasonable.

Saving pennies to pay Monroe $20 million a year?

Good money for the Knicks here, though.

SG: Afflalo
SF: Carmelo

Kinda slow perimeter group so far. Not much speed or perimeter defense.

That should put a lot of pressure on interior defense.

we both filled a team need, we needed a tough big man who can play defense, grab boards...I like the Johnson signing btw

the Knicks needed to fill their backcourt...I still hope the Knicks suck though...cuz it's funny

That's good - Afflalo sucks these days.

Avery Bradley minus the defence.

Helps to ensure that the Knicks will be just as bad (or nearly as bad) as last year. :)

disagree. I want them better than the Nets so the Nets pick has more value.

Lol my thoughts exactly, every team against the Nets!!!

The 2nd year is a player option.  Still not bad.  I wanted this guy years ago, but not so much now.  Still an upgrade for NY.

Man I just re-glanced at NY's roster.  What a pile of garbage.

Nice bit of game theory there! I love it!
