Gotta love this signing. Bench just got better. We also need some dogs.
BigRedDog @ 6/30/2025 10:00 PM
Can we afford him and Horford?

Bondy saying for VET MIN -- NICE if true.

Knicks are not capped at any apron, so yes

Get Horford for TMLE and hell with it -- bring Russ in on another vet min deal.

Would give us 3 very experienced vets to add to existing squad without touching anyone on roster.

Clarkson was the 21'6th man of the year. He can still get hot. Just what our anemic bench needs.

Honest question, can Clarkson and Deuce co-exist in the second unit? How about Clarkson, Deuce and Hart

I think Deuce is gone. Especially if we sign Westbrook. I think Kolek is a better fit with his ability as a floor general. 2nd unit shaping up. Hopefully Mitch is brought back.

Great signing at the vet minimum. Averaged 16 pts per off the bench last year. Can get hot and shoot his team into games....can also shoot his team out of games! perfect 6th man

Duece is making less than 5 million per and his great value for what he provides and at his age. No am I moving Duece to make room for Westbrook....

Clarkson if its vet min does a lot for us. A ballhandler and improvisor. I wish his 3 ball was better.

Westbrook makes no sense now....unless we have some kind of Hart and Deuce trade going on

VDesai @ 6/30/2025 10:19 PM
I only see Bondy saying vet min - any others?
HofstraBBall @ 6/30/2025 10:20 PM
Weakness was the bench. So this helps. Vet, can score and former 6th man so knows role well.

I think Westbrook commands more attention from the defense. Deuce gets to the line on average less than once a game. I think we need a player who will be more aggressive, get to the line more often. Help put the other team in foul trouble.

Clarkson creates offense which no one off the bench was doing for the Knicks

Deuce is the only point of attack defender on the team. There is no one on the roster who can replace what Deuce provides. Even if you bring in Westbrook he's bad at it.

Westbrook and Clarkson in the same backcourt are too ineffecient from 3 and wildly inconsistent to play together. Also, Westbrook only averaged 3 free throw attempts per the last 2 years off the bench which is the same number as Clarkson. I think we are good with Clarkson. Duece is only 24 and for the production he gives us, is on a great contract for us. Also, Duece is also our best on ball defender...
