i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

if wade leaves miami i have full confidence that riley will sign purple shirt guy in retribution

hahahaha

the spurs seem like a longshot but the mavs makes logical sense if he was ever gonna leave

i think it's just agent shit tho...

yikes

which is better, lower or higher Defensive FG%?

lower left is not the desired quadrant

Brian Windhorst ‏@WindhorstESPN 1m1 minute ago
As they prepare Durant pitch, Thunder looking to clear cap space. Rivals believe they plan to chase Al Horford too

they wld be good

westbrook oladipo durant horford adams is some world destroying shit if they can stitch a bench together

Biyombo will go from 3m a year to 12m+ because... He did pretty much the same thing he did the previous two years.

his defense seems to be trending towards elite levels tho

Your 2016/2017 Knicks!

Derrick Rose
?
Carmelo Anthony
Kristaps Porzingis
Joakim Noah

Twitter response from Knicks fans is obnoxious (go figure). It's a reasonable playoff roster. The NBA is about being better than the teams around your level, not min-maxing. This team can play with Charlotte, Indiana, and Boston. Even my beloved Pistons. :(

I'll be optimistic about injuries and Porzingis improving and say the Knicks are a lock for the playoffs.

Sure as long as next years playoffs start in May 2011

I'm hoping Joakim has a bounce back year because I kind of miss him and am interested to see him liberated from the Bulls but him and rose have both enters prove-it territory for me as far as general health and effectiveness

I might be discounting a monster jump for the zinger though, if Hornacek comes up with a reasonable system and plays him at the 5 all the time where he should be in the 2016 nba, that alone plus an average melo year probably could be a playoff team. That big jump usually comes in year 3 though

Woo lord trying to score against this would be terrifying. Donovan could take half the game off and just say "go where al points if you're unsure"

knicks feels like one of those rosters you can talk yourself into being "intriguing" until you actually see it play but idk yeah maybe hornacek comes up with something.

Sure as long as next years playoffs start in May 2011

hehe

noah looked utterly washed this season but you have to figure he'll be better next year. but the knicks dumping robin lopez's reasonable contract and their first round pick PG to pick up like $40 million worth of salary in broken down d rose & joakim is.................

that's how they've always rolled though. the antonio mcdyess approach.

and how well it's worked!

kind of hoping for interesting stuff from the knicks but we'll see

yea looking forward to this, hope it happens

Y'all okc is not getting Al Horford

that does seem far fetched but i'm not sure why he'd return to atlanta except for reasons of $$$

Looking at their payroll they'd have to move Kanter, ilyasova, and one other contract. I'll admit that's a he'll of a starting 5, but they'd still have a shitty bench.

i think ilyasova has a non guaranteed contract that they're gonna wave

the word ur looking for is "knicksian"

http://i.imgur.com/PEBwEFo.jpg

*mournful smokey riff*

both rose and noah have been either awful or injured for years now, a bounce back season for one of them isnt out of the relm of possibility but both seems way too much to ask

"bounce back" is really relative too

truuuu

crazy to think the bulls had two allstars in their prime that totally shit the bed via injuries

healthy rose/noah/butler is an extremely formidable core

I'm now having dreams about joining the banana boat bros

Mark J. Murphy ‏@murphmj
.@Isaiah_Thomas told @HeraldRadio that Kevin Durant actually brought up the Celtics to him. http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/celtics/celtics_insider/2016/06/isaiah_thomas_kevin_durant_loves_the_city_of_boston

that knicks lineup could finish anywhere between 2 and 14 in the east pretty much

do rose and noah want to play together any more? seems weird

the knicks are an amazing franchise

they love each other

second in..... the lottery?

yeah i'm not sure rose/melo/zinger/noah is really any better than what the bulls put out there last year, and that team missed the playoffs

that team could def be in the lump of five or so teams competing for the final 2 playoff spots

what happens if every east team finishes 41-41

celtics prob more than a 41 win team considering the addition of durant

also boogie is a positive addition for the cs

ya reasonable upgrade on kelly o

Chuck D ‏@MrChuckD
@KDTrey5 seems like a born @celtics & will make them a @nba east finalist the next 5 yrs w just a few pieces around him
