If Derrick Rose has anything left in the tank, I'd be interested in him if he's bought out.
I still think we end up with THJ and Dragic. i.e. another epic fail, and I've got yet another year to whine about Dwight Powell.
sigh

He's a Raptor guy, and Powell is from Canada. I don't think there's anymore to it than speculation.

Wat? The post was speculating trading Powell to Toronto for Dragic.

Yep, both and a 2nd round pick.
Toronto wants to unload Dragic as well.

Sterling Brown played for SMU, and played for Kidd as a rookie in Milwaukee.

Jeff Green to Denver. 2 year/$10 million.
Surprising to me after he played pretty well last year for the Nets.

Signing all wing guys that can shoot the three. Nice, but we still need a 3rd best player type.

Because of my low expectations from the beginning in free agency (and looking to be correct, sorry overly optimistic peoples) if we get Dragic, I'd give free agency a C+.

I was just thinking the exact same thing, but man, Derozan is still unsigned. Why not make it an A+ fa for kicks?

Sterling Brown: Wasn't he wrongfully tased by police outside a pharmacy in 2018 in Milwaukee? $750,000 settlement.
Then wasn't he injured in a fight outside of a "night club" in Miami? Out for the rest of the season.
You know, one incident is plain bad luck. But twice in 3 years?
He and KP gonna haveta buddy system to stay outta trouble.

We have 15 mil in cap space, Knicks can get up to 30 mil still. I don't see Spurs doing a s-n-t with us like wanting our trash (Powell). So I just don't see a path for us to get him, unless he just will take less to play with Luka. Or I guess if the Knicks don't want to pay more than 15 mil.
