Should we overpay Brook Lopez to sign him

  1. Yes, we are desperate and need a interior defender

    capela is solid , 20m per year , but why would the hawks trade him to us when they already let go of John Collins to the jazz ? Do they need more capspace ? Maybe the clippers want to move Zubac so they can get harden ? Or we could get hartenstein from them.

    If Toronto wants to SNT Frederick to us so they can generate a TPE they would send us picks to get it done, we can combine those picks and our assets to trade for a center . Anyway, Jabari is our stretch big. We just need a defensive rim runner type

    Reports are out there Hawks will give Capela for peanuts and cap space. My speculation is we sign Dillon Brooks later today and shortly trade fodder for Capela (depending if we like him more than Zubac).

    That would certainly go towards the goal of building the worst shooting team in the modern NBA.

    FVV
    Green
    Brooks
    Smith
    Capela

    It's hard to find a worse shooting team than that.

    Of course you guys would. As long as they’re homegrown, you guys are okay with winning 25 games max.

    Yeah of course! Watching our exciting young players develop and go through growing pains for 25 wins vs watching guys who are what they are help us get 28-30 games max?? While they make insane amount of money and potentially hurt our young guys development and extension in 3 years time? YES.

    Rockets legend Isaiah Hartenstein is a Knick now.

    How much development have you seen these past 2 years? Young guys don’t learn from each other, if that was the case, we wouldn’t be the worst team in the league 3 years running.

    Wanted to spend his last years with a so called contender, a fair attitude.
