    No, they'll take the contract in exchange for minor assets, and/or in combination with passing on a contract of their own if the Knicks will accept it.

    I kind of screwed myself bc my response to him was "no ****, it was a done deal a week ago"... So now I can't go back and ask details since i wanted to act hard like I already knew. But, I'm guessing he doesn't know details or he would have told me in his original text to me. He better not be ****ing around!

    Correct. I think the X is because it's an international airport. LAX. PHX [though there is an X in Phoenix]. ATX [though it also makes sense for Austin, TX]. It's obviously not used extensively but when there's that random X there I think that's how it got added.

    see it's basically a pass the dung bag circle jerk then and for some reason we think everyone should be on the receiving end except for us. i'd be really surprised if NY is willing to accept any more trash back when they're already taking on harkless

    Fraudriguez is such a dipshit. Literally piggybacks what Potato Head says and takes credit for it.

    They already exposed that they don't know facts with all the MVP discussions. Skip's stupidity pissed me off all last season.

    spreading his misinformation and false narratives to casual fans all across America who would in turn spew that garbage at me when talking basketball

    That just shows you that everything is just "speculation" at this point.

    @zeeshan2 did you see those tweets by fraudriguez that he deleted? something along the lines of "the way things are going with Houston, NY and Melo he might just get bought out before the season starts".

    Hayward broke their hearts and so will favors.

    Players say it's beyond boring in Sac & Utah. Rarely free agents go there.....no one of any name.
    Sefolosha and Jerebko are not big names. Rubio was traded there.
    Gobert protects the rim well for two positions (center & PF). Like Whiteside in Miami.

    Ryno would have supplied spacing. Do you think Favors who ended up shooting 30% from
    3 is going to do that? He shot well in the beginning of the season but faltered at the end.

    Diaw is gone so he cant supply space.

    Trey Lyles was traded to Suns or Denver or Sac. He supplied some spacing.

    Jerebko averaged about 3 points a game. He is not much of a threat from 3......not enough.

    Ryno would have supplied proven 3-point spacing for Gobert/Rubio. Those guys clog the lane.
    Favors will further clog the lane. They will be all defense like the Grizz and Bulls were. That doesn't
    beat the good teams anymore. Because no matter how good your defense is.......three point shooters
    spread out around the 3-point line can take advantage of them. Too much territory to cover.
