Looking at their payroll they'd have to move Kanter, ilyasova, and one other contract. I'll admit that's a he'll of a starting 5, but they'd still have a shitty bench.

i think ilyasova has a non guaranteed contract that they're gonna wave

noah looked utterly washed this season but you have to figure he'll be better next year. but the knicks dumping robin lopez's reasonable contract and their first round pick PG to pick up like $40 million worth of salary in broken down d rose & joakim is.................

both rose and noah have been either awful or injured for years now, a bounce back season for one of them isnt out of the relm of possibility but both seems way too much to ask

"bounce back" is really relative too

that knicks lineup could finish anywhere between 2 and 14 in the east pretty much

yeah i'm not sure rose/melo/zinger/noah is really any better than what the bulls put out there last year, and that team missed the playoffs

that team could def be in the lump of five or so teams competing for the final 2 playoff spots

Eddie Sefko ✔@ESefkoHearing that Dwight Howard is leaning toward either Boston or Atlanta. Doesn't look like anybody else is left in the picture.

atlanta is weird they don't have a whole lot left other than millsap i figured they'd be taking the year off

newish ownership so i could see them wanting to at least stay a playoff team or keep what is not historically the most devoted fanbase engaged. love al and want him to stay but i can understand the thinking behind being reluctant to max him for five years. there was some fantasizing out loud of what if kd came here that followed 'why isn't atlanta getting a meeting?' and it was a nice vision. could okc clear up space by doing a sign and trade w/ atlanta? we'd take whatever contracts to make it work and they could throw in sabonis to make it worth atlanta's while. maybe atl thinks 'o we can fix him' about dwight but if horford splits i would definitely be thinking go young. i guess in theory you could sign dwight and then see how the team looks and then if come the trade deadline you're like a 4 seed or worse then you blow it up idk, i wouldn't say i'm hoping atl gets dwight but if the money isn't bad it wouldn't have to be a disaster i guess. i just think it's very unlikely the money won't be bad.
― balls, Friday, 1 July 2016 00:03 (seven years ago) link
there was a moment during the finals early when i thought ok horford might be gone and teague is probably gone so let's blow it up and maybe we could get love and some assets for millsap (who basically only has one year left btw iirc), thinking lebron would be pissed and desperate enough for us to fleece cleveland somehow. love could still get dealt but the incentives at work in cleveland now are totally different. also thinking about how newish ownership might want to make not the smartest long term moves just to stay a playoff team, it occurs to me that coaches w/ personnel control have that kind of motivation in play also. i forget what podcast it was pointed out on but: coaches hate to lose, hate to coach losing teams. also those wins and losses go on their resume.

I chose these things except the cold weather, I think it's because we don't care about stats (such as WINNING) that have led us to the Nets.
