The pelicans have his bird rights so they can go over the cap.
I like his effort yet he can mess up a simple finish in a bad way.
i like norris. i wouldn't mind. he had a few ups and downs but i think he could be a solid backup at point. do the knicks have enough to even sign him

Unless he is coming here for the vet min, no.
Fyi he will likely be a 3rd string point guard for us at these s point.
Not the smartest player and won't be a good fit here.
Hes a bull dog at point guard with an attitude. ....perfect fit for nyc. Not so perfect for Phils version of a tall high IQ guard.
is there anyone else here worried about our PG depth? jose is a walking corpse at this stage and i dont trust grant at the NBA level (yet)

Galloway can combo. We'd just need him to bring the ball up, then triangle pass to Melo or Kristaps.
norris cole? no thank you
you would think that in this day in age people would stop calling for guys like cole.

I think cole is a good PG. He exceeded my expectations as the key PG on the heat. As we speak, Knicks are showing interest.....But may not have the funds now, after signing Seraphin, my maryland live casino buddy.....He's a big "black jack" player (poker is my game). He's not 7feet, but he played well during his last year with Washington. After meeting him, I started to watch him play during the second half of the season.....And I thought he played well enough to receive more minutes. I think Cole is another solid rotation vet we need! Neither guys are locker room cancers, so it's a low risk move.

You know, when you tell somebody your a knick fan, their very next word is something negative. I can't tell you how many times I heard catchy negative phrases about the knicks over a 20 year span. And 95% of it was negative (half empty). So it's the negativity / half empty comments that makes me see the optimistic side.
Some see life half full.....Some see life half empty. Then you have me, I see both sides! If I come into a discussion thats mustly half empty.....I feel like its my purpose to protect the half full side.......and vice versa.
Man, I've been on a crazy run playing no limit poker. If you play, then you understand.....I hit the bad beat one day, then changed tables and hit the high hand in the same day. Walked in with 200 cash.....(always leave credit cards in the car)......Walked out with 1900 cash.
We're capped out and can only offer a vet minimum deal and N.O. extended Cole his QO giving them the right to match any offer--yet it's being reported we still have interest. I wonder if there's a trade to be worked out here.

of course things are negative. for years, this franchise has been a laughing stock. you need to earn your way out.
200 -> 1900? VERY NICE! are you up overall? Do you track your play?

I don't track.....it's too depressing. If you understand this world, you are never up. So I try to forget the past and move forward. Otherwise you tend to chase the money you lost, and begin losing more! vs Starting all over, changing up your strategy and learn from your mistakes. Once I think like this, I win......So the short answer is no. But most people I play with do.
I'm married, so I really don't have a lot of time to play. But when I do, it's usually a full day. We should try and get a UK power game going....Somewhere between NY and Maryland.....

every player who plays a lot tracks. I don't play that much now but I used to play a few times a week in pretty high stakes. I was an aggressive / conservative player. I read pretty much every poker book and studied the odds pretty well.
I needed to stop because I was obsessed with it and of course my wife was not happy even though I was making good money.
Never touch black jack or any of the other games that guarantee that you will be a long term loser based on the odds.
