I hear you but West already trashed the knickerbockers politely,
He isn't coming here now and indicated he'd take less for Warriors or Spurs.

No way he bothers here, I rather NY take chances on ex knickerbocker Wilson Chandler

Is Wilson a free agent? I would love that actually.

Seems from link Wilson FA 2016 guaranteed contract, but maybe nuggets dont want to lose him for nothing 2016
.. is presumed, while this yr. He has good value.

Thus Exp. Contract between now n next 2016 I reckon.

Solid team??..eh..32/34 wins maybe?

It's not often you can double your win total.

I think they'll be pretty competitive. I think .500 is the best we can do though.

Compared to the rest of the roster we are stacked at PG. Don't understand spending more money there. Galloway, Calderon, Grant, maybe Shved

Agree David West is 35 and just dissed the Knicks as well? I wouldve liked to get Bennimon on our SL team. Right now what I would do it sit back on the cash and see what unfolds. See if players are released--see if there are standouts in SL were in good position lets chill here with the cash.

Yes to Benimon--Khem Birch is another SL guy I'm very much interested in.

Seriously??? Some things believe it or not mean more to people than money. The guy wants to be on a winning team . He does NOT want to come here. Next...

Remember
Kristas P (KP)
won't be around on NBA court until best case 2016/2017 (late) year
and possibly worst case 2017/2018

NBA nyk fans won't be seeing KP for at least 2 yrs down the road
is what's being stated or forecasted

Simply stated KP isnt NBA ready yet

He might have considered coming here if the Knicks were set up like the teams his Pacers beat a few years ago. He still wants to be on a championship team, or at least one that can compete at that level.

On this Knicks team he isn't a final piece...but more of a mentor and professional influence on our younger players.
