Have to figure that Luke Walton remembered what Mosgov did last year in the finals, because he only played 25 minutes in the 2016 finals, and half of that was in the second game blowout.

I'm also not sure of Timmy's legs at this point- it will be interesting to see how he holds up.

I thought we might try to get him, but we are clearly trying to create a team based on friendship and familiarity, and Rose, not Melo, seems to be the focal point.

while I think this deal is absurd I think the reason Moz didn't play was because Lue was playing a smaller brand of basketball than last year. Thompson, Love, and Frye were simply ahead of Moz

If the Knicks signed Mosgov to a 16 mill a year deal I think we all would be done as knick fans...

I think a reasonable action would be to seriously consider the NBA game in general has become distasteful to you and nothing wrong with that if it were the case.

Fans have always complained about the crazy money in sports and the NBA in particular, but they keep watching, and going and buying anyway, not only the U.S. but around the worlds. And because they do, the players deserve their share, which is why we are where we are.

If you resent them getting the money owed to the by collective bargaining, maybe it's just time to move on.

That would be the sensible play.

“Some (team) may get him on a contract, I don’t know whether or not it is going to be the Cavs,” Windhorst speculated. “But somebody may end up getting him on a three-year deal where it ends up being a discount when he recovers.”

I agree! Mozgov getting that contract is much riskier by Lakers. You don't think the Lakers would give Noah 4 yrs and 75 million in a heartbeat? Of course they would and so would other teams but Noah wants to play for the knicks as long as they give him contract he's happy with

Completely agree.
