Always been a Agbaji fan. I'm rooting for him. Wiseman's on court IQ makes Mitch look a mensa. He needs to strip his game down to rebounding and lobs. Maybe he finds his game by simplifying things?

Here we are like 5 years later so this may be his last chance for the league. His ceiling is definitely higher vs Eubanks but Eubanks is definitely a safer call for this vet team.

Wiseman never had a fair shot to just be who he is… a massive dude who just balled out in the World Cup USA . He is what he is a shot blocking,screen setting dunker, who should be a beast on the glass… guys like him shouldn’t be drafted #2 … and because he was drafted so high the expectations were unrealistic for the player he is…

He can be a very good back up or even starter if kept in his lane to do what he does well.

He's a more significant player than pretty much all of the recent add-ons and camp invites, so I'm really curious if they have a handshake deal to bring him back on board at the last minute after they take care of other business.

McCullar is absolutely not more significant than any of the players added. Brown, Kochar, and Agbaji are all veterans who were rotation players last year. And none are eligible for 2-way deals. McCullar is a 2-way eligible player who has yet to play in the nba really, despite being already 25. If another team wanted him on a 2-way deal he would be gone. His preference is probably to hang around and grab a 2-way spot but he doesn’t even seem to be guaranteed a training camp invite at this point. Knicks aren’t really interested in younger players on the active roster. They want proven vets. Even Agbaji was a really good 3&D player 2 years ago and had a down year last year. These 3 wings they added are really good.

You're making more assumptions than I am. We won't know the answer to any of it until he signs on somewhere.

Other than that, I simply have a higher opinion of him than you do.

In general, I believe increased backcourt and center defense is more important than adding wing defense at this time.

And there is Dadiet who is a prospect.

Wiseman had an achiles thing and might not be or ever reach the level of raw ability he had. Not all players respnd the same and tall players have other issues regarding tendens. 5 games in two seasons. I would not expect much. Likley very rusty. I suspect gleague assignment?

The others are vets but might be cooked either by injury or by aggregate of years in the league.
I can see where Clarkson might never step on the floor again as Karcher will be going for his minutes. Or Clarkson gets regular minutes. No telling.
Some things are wide open. Kolek? Who knows. Dadiet? Can't say if moving him means we need to put a pick with him or we get a pick back?

McCullar? Good question. I guess we are to assume he is an camp invite? Whose camp? Gleague bound?

What are you actually stating in this post? Is that a TLDR: I don't know anything?

Im asking questions and framing the potential desision making process.
Many are dismissing Dadiet to make room for some of these vets but the kid has a contract. Maybe his agent is even asking for a trade out to accommodate?

Im reminding not to expect much from Wiseman and perhaps he is Gleague which gives him an path as a knick or other teams.
Not everything need be a statement as part of a discussion. If others have insight or an opinion they will chime in.

If we are considering Brown or Konchar as another wing - who is the better fit and who fits better long-term?

Moving on from Dadiet is not a big deal but if we are moving Deuce it makes me think Brown would fit better in that type of role
