If the Knicks offer the max maybe....but he's not leaving the bulls. They got a good thing going on

He could have been if we drafted him. Bulls will match our offer though.

You're never to old dream. I had a dream that I was with Kate Upton the other night.

I actually think the Knicks could offer Butler $12 mil and that might make the Bulls pause. Do they want to tie up that much into him when they will have Noah to take care of? The Bulls have other young players they can look to so why spend so much on Butler? My guess is they would let him go. It's worth a shot.

The only way to have a shot is to offer max. Butler was asking for 14mil per extension with the Bulls. Bulls only offered 11. He won't accept 12 to leave the Bulls and Bulls would pay the 12 since he has proved his worth.

Bulls would probably look for a S&T if they don't want to match.

J.Butler and M.Gasol are the two players I always believed the Knicks were go hard at this off season...

Mirotic.........Euro stash's take time and patience. Low 1st rounders can payoff. Jury still out on the kid but he could be a good player!

We'd need to offer them both max deals and we won't have enough cap space to do that. Besides, there's less than 1% chance that Gasol would leave Memphis for this shitshow.

Knicks might be able to do Butler and Greg Monroe tho. Both at near Max deals might just be enough to get them to bite. If JR opts out that would give the Knicks a bit more room $35,837,283. The Cap for 2015-16 might be about $66.5 mil. Knicks could likely fit Maxed out Butler and Monroe.

IM thinking its gonna be Monroe. Dude gotta plan. He has proved to take the risk of playing the season out. He can get his 5th year via opt out after 2nd year. Guy is young and belief is in the triangle he blossoms.

Thats my faith.

He comes off the bench for a horrible team. Doesn't really come off as an impact player. Phil would need to sell him on a value short term contract, using the triangle to expand him to star status and getting max in his next contract when the salary cap rises.

Instead of Monroe I'd rather trade for a 1st rounder and try and draft another center and sign an average to decent center

Monroe only has tread because he's the latest name drop

In the media, we moved on from Rondo, Love, Gasol, and to


Greg The Great Monroe, this would be such a Tire Fire move

Trade whom???

Im all for trading anybody. Not saying we should, but at some point a good deal can come about.

I'm just not at all convinced with Monroe. Not a smart player, dosen't make others around him better, he is not my kind of player I'd want with the max

Monroe has been talked about here since last season.

Wait, now we're pissin on young talent like Monroe? Who the F do you guys think are out there that we can get? The only thing left is draft picks for guys we don't know can even make it in the NBA yet. I just don't understand guys anymore. The kid is 24 and on a dreadful team. I'm pretty sure he can be much more productive if given the chance in a better role. I think Monroe would shine in a system like the Triangle. He'd touch the ball WAY more and have more opportunities to get assists as well.

Still planning on a triangular future?
