    Ok, we are getting Jordan as well.

    That makes it a great deal for us.

    He’s serviceable. That’s all I care about. They were never going to get some stud there

    the big minutes are already set with small ball

    Now way we gave up a first. That don't even sound right. I like Roco defensively but he is really overrated.

    Still hoping another young player was included.

    Salaries still look wrong.

    They traded a late #1 for an early #2. Obviously I would rather have a #1 but the #2 off sets that somewhat.

    I’ll never forgive Les for selling the team to Tilman.

    Cov and Bell actually makes us better tbh.

    Rockets I think might still be looking for a center or another big. Still have other poss trades and buyout/free agent market

    Clutch is saying on Twitter that we traded the FRP to move Nene and Green so we could duck the tax..

    Tilman strikes again

    Hate to say it but Morey got fleeced. Teams knew he had little leverage and a crazy owner.

    Congratulations to the Knicks.
    You are no longer the biggest dumpster fire in the NBA.
    Tilman and D’Antoni stole your title.
