Another serious consideration for Robin Lopez: The Lakers.

Wonder what length they are talking about?

Like lopez but not for that money. That leaves us with 6 million. Afflalo and lopez being our top signings isnt too great

Wow!!

This won't happen unless Jordan says no
fitzfarm @ 7/2/2015 9:08 PM
Nice back up plan

thats too much money for him. I liked the afflalo deal but this would be a overpay
TPercy @ 7/2/2015 9:10 PM
That would leave us with about 7mm right? Can we get Amundson/Labeyrie,Shved,Cole, Galkdas/Gomez, and maybe Bejinca with that?
fitzfarm @ 7/2/2015 9:11 PM
Yea unless it's a two year deal ... I have a feeling that we don't offer Lopez a contract because Jordan comes to New York

Surprised if he comes here. Still think he ends up back with Clippers.

i hope we get shved so you dont jump off a cliff

Sounds like the agent wants to run the price up between the Knicks and Lakers as well. Im sure the deal is atleast 3 years if 2 teams are involved. I wonder if Koufus at 6-7mm is a better play.
fitzfarm @ 7/2/2015 9:13 PM
I'm really hoping for biyombo he would be a way cheaper option with offering a very similar skill set.. I too believe this is his agent building up the price
CrushAlot @ 7/2/2015 9:14 PM
I don't think those are bad numbers when you look at what DeMarre was paid. It isn't like it is an uninsured deal for 100 mil or something.
nixluva @ 7/2/2015 9:15 PM
$12-13mil isn't too much in this market. There is a bit of a fight over him now since he's the last of the somewhat better bigs left. It would still leave enough money to add another FA or 2 and then they'll use the Room Exception and Vet Minimums for the end of the bench guys.

I like Kostas a lot. Not sure that he isn't a better option. But I have always liked Kostas and probably overrate him.
crzymdups @ 7/2/2015 9:18 PM
This would be a good signing. Worried the Lakers will jump in.
BRIGGS @ 7/2/2015 9:24 PM
No real difference per minute. If anything Koufus is a better rebounder.

Also Koufus has 3400 minutes less on his body.
