Remember the Lakers free agency crash and burn last summer? I have a feeling that's what ours is gonna look like. Apparently giving away all our best players for nothing and then drafting a project wasn't the best strategy to attract free agents.

The cap is doubling in two years. $15M is a bargain

New york--what do w do if we strike out--trade melo? Its almost unfair at this point to both Melo and the Knicks if we get stuck taking secondary crp in.

What's ridiculous is thinking Carroll would take that contract from us. That contract is basically the new MLE.

I would trade Melo. Will be hard to find a market for him before the trade deadline though.

Yeah i think if we strike out and Melo would agree to it then we might as well trade him if we get the right offer. The contracts that are being given out right now are too much for us to even match if we wanna build this team the right way. Milsap 4 years 80 million and Carroll 4 years 60 miilion. We can't give out contracts like that with the position we're in right now. This is getting me very nervous right now.

The upside to striking out is that you end up being the only team with space when the salary scale doubles to match the cap. Plan A should be get Monroe, then 1-year deals to hang onto the space.

That's way more than I would've paid for Carroll and I liked him. The Knicks still have options even if they aren't sexy options. No need to panic. You just make smart moves and hold on to some cap space if you strike out. There are some good low end players like Ajinca and R Lopez and some Euro players they could also go after. You still have a shot at Tobias Harris as well.

The Raptors won the division last year. We won 17 games. Why would he choose NY again?

Use the cap space to take on salary for picks- it's not the end of the world. Thats where we went wrong in 2010, by panicking and signing Amar'e

These contracts are ****ing insane. TV money, cap doubling? guys are getting 1MM per point!

Carrol is a very solid role player that's it. To put in perspective, Russell Westbrook made 16.7MM last season, Curry, 12MM, Horford 12MM

Lock out will be happening soon.

lol...because he LIKED working out with d.fisher

Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

Rolo and T.Harris wouldn't be a bad free agency and we might still be able to add a P.Beverley to that.
