    Are there any draft preps for the Rox or are we conducting workouts or our stupid GM does not care about this years draft?

    Tillman is rich again. He should buy #31.

    Tillman should buy #24 since it comes with a guaranteed first round contract which the Knicks do not want.

    I think there’s a cap on the cash you can send for a pick. I figured a first rounder’s value would exceed that. But yes, buy the first rounder if possible.

    He’s worth more than that, despite his disappointing season.

    AI tells me we can send $7.878M in 'cash considerations'
    Apparently we have only spent $85,300 of our allowance for this season - so have most of it available.

    Would the Knicks trade their first round pick for our remaining cash considerations in order to dump Pacome Dadiet? We could accept his salary into our trade exception?
