    You do realize that MDA basically ran a 6 man rotation in the WCF and that shrank to 5 when Paul went down right?

    I would like:
    1) DeAndre Jordan (on minimal $)
    2) House (after G-league season at current pay.....becomes free agent this summer)
    3) Markieff (minimal if healthy from neck problem.....worry about nerve injuries due to Terrence Jones nerve problem/leg)

    House will definitely take one. Jordan might take another. I have no clue what happens with the last one.

    CP3/Rivers
    Harden/Shumpert
    Gordon/House/Green
    PJ/Clark
    Capela/Faried/Jordan/Nene/Hartenstein

    I’m thinking a PG or PF. Idk who though.

    We can wait. The later we sign him, the more money we save.

    And why are people saying DJ? Reports are already out that Knicks are keeping him.

    Based on the reports it sounds like Kanter might be the only big man being bought out. I never got why teams did buyouts anyway seems like they don't get anything out of it other than good will. I'd love a healthy Morris but based on what I've heard his injury could linger all year. Ellington would be a great get though. He's a wiz at running around screens to get open threes.

    If the Knicks get two max free agents, staying in NY makes lots of sense for DJ.

    Lol @ people thinking getting House back. Really? We dumped Ennis for nothing to save money. Unless House is taking peanuts, ain't happening. Also, even say we get him back, doubt he will be playing much in the playoffs anyways.
