So there you go. I like we kept Bullock. He's very good on a super friendly deal.

I would have considered keeping portis but otherwise, I am good with all of this.

At nearly $16M?! For what? No defense? And barely any decent offense? He's a near min player IMHO

So it's Frank, DSJ or trade. Or hope to hell, for knick1248's sake, that Quickley lives up to his name.

So pretty much as it stands right now

Mitch, Randle, Knox, Barrett, Frank. Toppin, Bullock, Smith, Quickley, Brazdeikis, Powell.

With money to spend. Throw some $$$ at Malik Beasley?

DJ Augustine and call it a day. I'm sure the market will open up and provide opportunities throughout the season.

Some NBA Media say Knicks interested in VanFleet ...............Some NBA Media say Knicks NOT interested in VanFleet. Anybody have even a hunch which one of these two schools of thought are correct ???????????

We need some big. We are not sure if Mitch and Obi are the least bit reliable yet.

Taj will be brought back. Randle still on roster

I liked Portis but he was not consistent either. Got to raise the ceiling now even if its a miss.

They should bring Taj back. He played solid as a center. I think they bring back Wooten for the G league if there is one this year. The rest we should move on from. I would like to get rid of DSJr too but I understand if they feel they would be selling low. I guess they are going to give him one more chance to prove himself.

Like the flexibility we have but we still have too many power forward.. Knox, Randle & Toppin are redundant

Quickley looks like Toney Douglas 4.0

Still think they may flip Randle for lavine or oladipo.

Randle has half the value as those guys.

I wouldn't be surprised about a Randle - Rozier swap and I'd almost be in favor of it

Alan Hahn and Macri seem to think we will not be signing VanVleet, they were talking as if they had heard something on the down low- I hope they're wrong though
