I would sign Reynolds and Lin--dump Rautins and offer Earl Watson and 2 year 6mm $ contract

S Reynolds 2 years 1.1 mm with one year guaranteed
Lin 3 years 2.7mm with two years guaranteed
Watson 2 years 6mm

Dump Rautins and Curry

Lin/Reynolds/Watson/Douglas/Felton......Very Bad idea Briggs when one our more pressing needs is 2 guard play. I'd probably look into picking up Rasual Butler with the $3mil if at all possible and signing Lin-Janning or possibly Karl/Owens instead of Janning.


Reynolds is already in the Suns Camp. If he plays well during camp/pre-season he's probably getting signed.

I wanted to get Livingston--we should have. Right now we can play Chandler Walker Azubike Douglas at 2 guard--we really need a pro vet PG in case Felton goes down and I think Lin is just a very good prospect as a basketball player--forget position. We really don't need Reynolds if we can get Lin and Watson.

Briggs--- 4 roster spots and $1.5M in cap space. I make assumptions about Amare, Felton and Mozgov, though I think Mozgovs contract is really 3 years, $7.7M with $2M of the $2.5M buyout charged against the Knick's cap this year--making the total contract 3 years $9.7M. We have one cap hold currently. So, by my calc, we have $1.56M to spend without using exceptions. Note, after we cap out, we could still give a player a minimum contract to play backup pg.

You know I gonna spin wit it
how many roster spots do we have left??
