    I believe KD did want to come to the Knicks. Stupid injury messed it up. 
    Not sure it was the injury, but more  the dysfunction of the NYK ownership?
    Usually he would pay whatever to get the player or players. And that's all he really is there for and does. For some reason they were not sure about the injury. They've had different GMs, coaches, and presidents, some of whom were "close" to whatever free agents were available. Yes Dolan can be a pain or come off as an ass. But he will still pay the players. Maybe the players hate the NY media or the fans.

    It was the year 1988 ... 

    Michael Jordan signs an 8 year deal with the Chicago Bulls for an estimated $25M.  Outrageous!

    @Poncier remember when Ainge fleeced the Nets a few years back and everyone thought it would set them up for multiple championships runs? Now? Haha....

    By the way, thanks for Horford!

    Where are all the delusional Knicks fans?

    GS signed D'angelo Russel for how much?!?

    Kawhi stays with the Raptors until he slays another dynasty.  He is your "Dynasty slayer", lol.

    Good job Nets.  They should be fun to watch.

    Lakers doing anything yet?

    Horoford leaving Boston hurts.

    What's up w Indiana?  They were good before Olidipo went down.  Surprised they haven't tried to make any moves?  Imagine Kawhi going there?  Teehee.

    If Kawhi stays they repeat.  The league is all over the place right now and Bucks haven't done squat in FA.

    76ers congrats on getting rid of Butler!

    Pelicans, WTF were u thinking in picking up Butler?  Don't let him near Zion!!!

    You're welcome.

    You'll be paying 27 mil a year for him at age 36...good luck with that. He's a good player, but was very overpaid here, and will be more overpaid there considering his age.

    And as for that Nets trade...it still netted the Celtics Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum for aging Garnett, Pierce and Terry. Plus we took a kick at the can with Kyrie but found out the hard way that his immense basketball talent wasn't enough to overcome his mental shortcomings. A trade you make 100 out of 100 times without benefit of hindsight.

    Nice to see your Sixers are starting "The Process" all over again. 
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Free Agency does not guarantee success for any time...

    Of course you make that trade. it's just a shame for you guys that five years later the Nets appear to be in better shape. 

    And nothing is starting over. Adding the proper pieces to make a run at the title.

    How do you mean? Lebron won titles in Miami. KD won titles in GS. The league is littered with tons of instances where free agents have put teams over the top. It's all about star players. Doesn't matter if you draft them, trade for them, or sign them. Especially in the NBA.

    Comparing FA in MLB and NBA is ridiculous.

    Oh really?  Whoops.

    Good on Pelicans then and shame on the Heat.  Spoelstra will have his hands full with him but he's a good coach so let's see what happens.

    If you want to call that a move, then yes.
