Knicks · Around the NBA, 2023 Free Agency: Let the madness begin! (page 9)

Some teams have signed contracts and added players this past draft. With new additions many vets will have to be moved and moved with more value for the acquiring team. I think Leon is looking to snag vets other teams will be looking to move now. BTW does Eric Gordon give us what Dante would for a better value ?

Maybe they move Heild?

Where are the Brown minutes coming from?

They've been trying to move Heild for the past year and half. I'm pretty sure McConnell and Buddy are gone for the first halfway decent 4 that shakes loose. And I'm not talking about Obi.

If Dame goes to Miami they won't have a bench with Struz and Vincent gone and Portland better get back Herro

Well, the Mavs were off the table...

And you just know the cHeat are going to get Dame really cheap too. Like Lowry and Robinson plus a couple of seconds.

Portland should demand Herro and Martin plus unprotected picks 5-7 years from now.

I have a feeling he was always going to ask for a trade but waited for Grant to get the bag. Grant does not get that contract if the Blazers enter rebuilding mode before they negotiated it. To be honest I am not sure he gets that contract from any other team.

You might be right, but he is signed to a long term contract and isn't a rental. If he was a rental like Kyrie or Harden I'd agree with you

Just thinking about how perfect of a fit Dame is for Miami. They struggle to score and Dame will win you games with his scoring alone. Even if their bench is thin they will find guys to fill needed roles and Spo will make sure they produce. Some teams get all the luck.

Man, I know I should have more compassion, but seeing this man's tears is... magnificent. These dudes were probably the same guys going on about how stupid we were for trading KP.

I understand why Dame wants Miami. But… why does Miami want Dame?

How do you trade with Miami and not ask for Bam Adabayo? Do you really take back their bad contracts just to make Lollards happy? No way man

martin @ 7/1/2023 1:51 PM
DLo made $31M last year

Knicks give up too much in trades while Riley never does
