Hard to see him not playing at least 38 min per night, which doesn't bode well for anyone under him on the depth chart

statements like this does not bode well for your reputation.
Are the Wolves still trying to trade Jauncho? Not saying he's great or his ceiling is high, but he fills a need with his physical profile defensively.
The Knicks were dodging bullets long before we even knew it. I am glad we did not spend a bunch of assets for Beal.

There’s no excuse for being this stupid- what is so difficult to grasp about the concept of a vaccine lowering the chances of infection and severity of illness but not being 100%? Just brain dead stuff.

any time i ponder a question like that i remind myself that over 74-million people voted to re-elect trump and that puts everything into perspective
Yikes! Wonder if his back holds up
If his back is okay, I'd be suing that team Dr that told teams he'd likely never play again just before the draft, read an article saying that report was the main thing that scared off teams (think it was the Clips Dr, and that's why they passed on him twice)

I really like Porter. But not so sure I like him at over $40 Million per year. Just reinforces how much I appreciate the work our FO is doing by locking into JR at under $30M per.
The 207 is if he makes supermax by being all-nba. Then it drops to $176. ITs been discussed that he’ll have Embiid type deal that is based on games played. Basically if he is healthy, he is a hell of a player and showed that last year. What prevents that? His back. So dDenver is protected to some extent.
I like the Randle deal because it allows him to drop back and let the team grow around him. He is a better player with lower stats which promotes WINNING. On another team he could get more money but he is valued here and we are building around him. ITs good for both him and the team. Leon is fostering a good environment that fostered a mutual trust between the team and Randle.
No Drama
No Distractions
Just Hard Work
Kind of hidden in this answer Thibs said Knox had a good or great summer. Audio quality is not the best.
Sorry for the spam but Thibs is giving some good info. The Knicks are adding more player development guys because our players keep putting in overtime.

Ty for these.
Can anyone confirm, did RJ grew taller over the summer? According to the team roster both RJ and Burks are listed at 6'6" but in the training camp highlights both RJ and Burks doing shooting drills, it seems to me RJ is visiblly taller than Burks.
This is going to effect a lot of players, because it seem like everyone started doing this

I like that the NBA is looking into this but, man, this is going to be hard to call
I just checked out the Knicks early season schedule. We play the Magic 3 times! It looks like a 17-4 start is possible before we begin a slate of games vs. Western Conference contenders.
I don't really believe in the idea that "you have to play every team at least twice." By the time newly signed players can be traded and the All Star break，a lot of teams already know if they will make the playoffs or not. The play in spots make it slightly more competitive，like the Wizards turning it around last season，but those instances are rare. A solid start is the most important factor for a successful season.
Between new coaches in Boston，Washington，and Indiana， the Ben Simmons/ Kyrie/ Beal situations， and early season injuries to Warren and LeVert， I'm optimistic about the early season for New York.
I think Wiggins for Porzingis makes sense. Texas (I'm guessing) won't have any protocols and Porzingis can shoot 3s while doing weak side blocks in defense. I don't think Donicic and Kidd have any interest in playing KP going forward，but Wiggins can give them another switchable wing to replace Josh Richardson's role.
