Does this have anything to do with the slew of ongoing court cases out there regarding the eligibility of NCAA players?

or Dink got a taste of pro ball so young he may have found it hard to adjust to being a student athlete

Apparently this

This FO does keep the pipeline active. He's a talent and you never know, but he could have a future with the team. In general, I like seeing guys like this come back, because it can also mean they had a positive experience inside our organization so if they are ever going to amount to anything as an NBA player then they may have some loyalty to the club that groomed them

Dink I hope lands better than Trier. To be fair Lonzo undrafted got two year, nearly 7mm deal and had a really good Rookie year!
Year two 24 games and then waived. WTF happend? Shitty attitude?

Wiseman last man standing. Guess we either decided not to, or couldn't, make a deal.

If Dadiet is either going to turn the corner this season or he will have additional value as a trading piece later, then dumping him for nothing now to keep Brown would be a mistake.

Since this FO doesn't make too many of those mistakes, we can assume they still believe Dadiet has more value than being the cost of retaining Bruce Brown.

This is a deep roster now. The FO should never make any desperation moves, including dumping Deuce.

We get lots of media that likes to speculate. Maybe knicks were trying to move Dadiet, the was reported Kolek becuase nobody wanted Dadiet. We don't don't know what Knicks wanted do we? Add KOlek in and fans get mad. Anger sells so sports media likes to get us going. We then start talking like its fact or we an insider.

Bruce Brown has been a nice player and has had a good career thus far. Pehraps KNicks think Pancome future is still valid were Brown is on the decline? Maybe another team can offer Brown more minutes/opportunity and will go there and asked to be waived?

His career earnings are over $62mm. Maybe the knees hurt and he cooked? Many things one can guess on.

was it you that jumped on me for calling josh a guard?
He is 6-4. He does bring the ball up a lot. He is an elite rebounder for his height.
All knick wings have different defensive assignments and thru the game.
In the Finals OG even guarded Fox for some possessions. Not just one on one, but if Fox tried to initiate a switch it meant OG was now in charge.
Nonsense? LOL......You'll argue it to the death!

McCullers. Not a great camp/preseason for him. Yet here is on a two way. Trade fodder? Still future role player? He'll be 26 in March.
Im rooting for him but time is ticking. Hope he can make a mark.
