The knicks might have some serious completion for Hayward in the Pacers, its said the Hayward wants to play for his hometown and a possible sign and trade involving myles turner could be an option for boston. Well maybe Oladipo becomes available if that happens.
Speaking of opportunities opening up, can the front office be creative enough to pull off a Lonzo ball trade? Since the pelicans drafted Lewis ball might be made available. That might be an interesting line up
Mitch

Hayward

Lonzo
Gallo not exactly an 80 game per season kind of guy. He north of 30 too!
Gordon had one gruesome injury. Last year he was great but in the playoffs he sprained his ankle. Gordon gets hurt, not injury prone. At the end of the day Haywood should have stayed in Utah but he chose the relevancy of Celtics. Who knew Tatum would be all that and soon top 5 player??
His health is good. All players get injured. Its not “Knicks being Knicks”. Bryant and Perrin have a long history with him and they can gauge his ability and what he has left in the tank. Based on the Tweet by Locke Gordon craves the limelight and wants some legacy to his career.
I get he would want to be in Indy also.
Above I inferred Hawks not interested. I meant for Olidipo. ATL is a wasteland culturally as a sports town. On the court it might be a good fit though.
As for the money, must view it as a three year thing. Say he keeps his 34mm, then at age 31 he does a two year year deal at 25 per?
Thats 84mm. OR 28mm avg. I’d give him 28mm per if Perrin and Bryant sign off on it. Its their asses, not the starphuch to worry.
Glad I'm not the only one who's auto correct is changing Hayward to Haywood
I would love to land FVV and Hayward. I'm worried they're just using us to get what they want. Hayward to the Pacers in a sign and trade with Miles Turner going back to Boston makes too much sense for both teams (plus Hayward wants to be there), so I can't see that not ending up being what happens
HELL YEAH I COULD FEEL GOOD ABOUT THIS

I saw that twice now. I am down with that. Hopefully it doesn’t prevent us from signing FVV if we have that 1% chance.
a lot of scratch and 3 years should be the upper limit
some other things about Gordon and more generally a smart player
Gordon is disciplined. Unlike someone like Melo, you won't see him launching a shot with 2 guys hanging on hip and a 7'3" wide open under the hoop. Instead when he shoots he's set. generally there are rebounders in place. it's not 1 on 3
there aren't good stats that show the shot was quality or smart, or lead to a subsequent good or bad thing
if we get him i am very hopefully that he will up the on-court IQ and teach others by example.
this is polar opposite of Randle. He mightbe a great guy but his low BBIQ is palpable

It does. According to reports, Masai is hoping 4/$85M. Only way to get both FVV and Hayward is to bget rid of Spindarella.

I’m sure Lowry and Siakam would love to have him as a teammate.
Manage those expectations folks:
Still fear we’re being used. Fingers crossed though

If Indiana finds a taker for Oladipo, then I can accept it. They earned it.

seems the most likely... but we'll see.

Macri says Indiana is trying to do a sign and trade using Myles Turner. I hope this fails, not because I want Hayward that much. But eff Boston.
Dammit Mario....Hope this doesn't help the Cs and Indiana in a sign and trade.

Well then if he isn’t coming here let’s still drive up that contract price 😎
