You're never to old dream. I had a dream that I was with Kate Upton the other night.
Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

I actually think the Knicks could offer Butler $12 mil and that might make the Bulls pause. Do they want to tie up that much into him when they will have Noah to take care of? The Bulls have other young players they can look to so why spend so much on Butler? My guess is they would let him go. It's worth a shot.

The only way to have a shot is to offer max. Butler was asking for 14mil per extension with the Bulls. Bulls only offered 11. He won't accept 12 to leave the Bulls and Bulls would pay the 12 since he has proved his worth.

J.Butler and M.Gasol are the two players I always believed the Knicks were go hard at this off season...
We'd need to offer them both max deals and we won't have enough cap space to do that. Besides, there's less than 1% chance that Gasol would leave Memphis for this ****show.
Now the joy of my world is in Zion
How beautiful if nothing more
Than to wait at Zion's door
I've never been in love like this before
Now let me pray to keep you from
The perils that will surely come

Knicks might be able to do Butler and Greg Monroe tho. Both at near Max deals might just be enough to get them to bite. If JR opts out that would give the Knicks a bit more room $35,837,283. The Cap for 2015-16 might be about $66.5 mil. Knicks could likely fit Maxed out Butler and Monroe.

IM thinking its gonna be Monroe. Dude gotta plan. He has proved to take the risk of playing the season out. He can get his 5th year via opt out after 2nd year. Guy is young and belief is in the triangle he blossoms.
Thats my faith.

He comes off the bench for a horrible team. Doesn't really come off as an impact player. Phil would need to sell him on a value short term contract, using the triangle to expand him to star status and getting max in his next contract when the salary cap rises.

Monroe only has tread because he's the latest name drop
In the media, we moved on from Rondo, Love, Gasol, and
Greg The Great Monroe, this would be such a Tire Fire move
I'm just not at all convinced with Monroe. Not a smart player, dosen't make others around him better, he is not my kind of player I'd want with the max
The Future is Bright!

Wait, now we're pissin on young talent like Monroe? Who the F do you guys think are out there that we can get? The only thing left is draft picks for guys we don't know can even make it in the NBA yet. I just don't understand guys anymore. The kid is 24 and on a dreadful team. I'm pretty sure he can be much more productive if given the chance in a better role. I think Monroe would shine in a system like the Triangle. He'd touch the ball WAY more and have more opportunities to get assists as well.
