Figured it made sense to start a new thread now that the draft is over with and we're moving on to FA. Not much news today except:
1) Bondy said the Knicks aren't expected to have interest in signing Russell if he becomes UFA. Thinks they'll sign guys to 1 year deals if they strike out on KD, Kawhi, Kyrie rather than go after Russell and other similar FA's with max offers.
2) Jalen Rose thinks KD is headed to NY -- specifically the Knicks. Here's what he said:
| "The Knicks," Rose predicted. "I still feel like if you're going to leave the Golden State Warriors, it's not just about the rings; he got two there. It's not just about the money; he can get more there. It's the stage. If you're gonna come to New York City, that's at MSG." |
Noteworthy because Rose is a roc nation client and therefore has ties to Kleiman. Of course, he may know nothing and is sharing his opinion but who knows.

If you believe the hashtags he is recruiting for the knicks
is that a current pic? you can't see his legs but doesn't look like a guy who just had achilles surgery
It's not something that makes you look sick or keeps you bedridden.
It's been about two weeks since surgery, hasn't it?

The Knicks have long been planning to pursue the likes of Durant, Kyrie Irving and Kawhi Leonard in free agency but are widely expected to turn to short-term offers if they miss out on their primary targets
Possible Value SG Pickups - ( New Window )
yeah i hear you, just seems like an odd one- rather punt on a different position that wouldnt clutter the development of the asset
would love it if there is a team option, get cousins on the miami weight loss program that fizdale has..
The Boston Celtics have emerged as the frontrunner to sign Charlotte All-Star guard Kemba Walker once free agency opens Sunday at 6 PM ET, league sources tell ESPN.
Not really sure what the celts plan is here. Are they shooting to be the 4-5 seed for the next 4 years. Will this cost them Rozier? not saying Rozier is Kemba but we dont know what he is and he will be a lot cheaper. Unless Tatum becomes a superstar or Hayward looks a lot closer to hayward a couple years ago then i dont see how the celts team will be anything more then a second round exit at best.
