    Knicks will pick him up, play him, and Rockets will re-sign him this summer.

    Best of luck to Macadho, didn't really see anything that impressed me out of him. I think Ishmael Smith was better.

    Objectively, he is just not that good, even in the DLeague.

    lol. Watch, he'll end up in NY. Good luck Scott, I thought you definitely had an amazing ability to create out there. Get that defense fixed up.

    Any word on whether he will sign a D-League contract with the Vipers and stay around? I don't think he'll get picked up off waivers, based on his D-League play so far. He needs a bit more development time.

    There goes our only pure PG :(

    Let's hope Beverley can fill his ample shoes.

    Best of luck to him. Kid had a knack for assists but everything else needs improvement. Hopefully, a season in the D-league or overseas allows him to improve his game so that he can come back stronger and viable for a team down the road.

    If the story of Lin and Arian Foster proves anything, it is that if you keep at it, there is a chance that you can get to shine, even when others have given up on you if you hone your craft.

    Metta would be taking a spot that's already filled by #AnxietyTrooper

    Good luck the rest of the way! Maybe the Knicks will pick him up?

    I hope Lin phones the right guy this time :)

    Knicks have a full 15 roster right now. They would probably have to waive James White but hopefully not until after the dunk contest.

    Machado might end up signing 10 day contracts and get his Sundiata Gaines on.
