Yeah it was DeRozan and/or one of these PGs like Schroder.

Riley doing his thing.

He ain't no "3PT shooter" dude.

The most 3's he's ever made during a single season is 173 (2019-2020).


You've got dudes out here like Duncan Robinson (270), Dame (275), Klay (276), Buddy (282), Paul George (292), Harden (378), Steph (402).


This bum ain't no "3 PT shooter" he's a freaking scrub who's never helped his teams WIN!


F-.

He shot 41% from 3 last year.

If I recall, that was his split with Boston.

or just look it up https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/f/fournev01.html

Ok- so the 413 was total -388 with Orlando.

If we can get the 463 form out of him for a full year, that will be good.

Fournier and Burks for $28MM or Lonzo for 21?

He shoots it at a high percentage and could have replaced Bullocks defense.

Rose was an overlay. He’s was great for us, but he’s a 20 minute a night player and we are giving him 14MM a year?

Maybe there is a move out there with all these guys being sent to Golden State or another western conference team.

Seems like a lot of money to secure the 7/8 seed. Feels very old Knicks.

Not that high on Lonzo, so I'll say Fournier and Burks. It looks like we're re-signing Frank for the all French backcourt. I'm joking...but I'm kinda not

Will we never get rid of this guy? I don't even want him here on a min contract.

Reasonable swap of Bullock for Fournier to upgrade the offense. Adding another guy who can get his own shot is big.
Everything in moderation. Even moderation.

I think you owe PhilC an apology 😥

Wow, I would join the haters of the offseason if this happens and will be reminded again of the sucky part of Thibs being your coach.

if you look at Cameron Payne and Payton, their numbers aren't really that far apart- so if we can get Payton on a reasonable deal, I'm ok with it- he just has to learn to hit 3pters. Put an incentive in their for 3pt%, let him work on his shooting over the summer. I like to think hard work pays off, and you just don't rely on talent.

If we can't get payton, can we please sign Mudiay?

Today's been such an up and down free agency day that I don't know what makes sense anymore...

Watching these clips I am happy to see some good defensive effort from Fournier. Sure Thibs will get the best effort out of him!

Fournier is a way better player than Bullock. He can put the ball on the floor and distribute as a secondary playmaker. And he can shoot on the move. Bullock was mainly a stationary shooter on kick outs. Fournier can shoot off screens, shoot off dribble, etc. and has at least a bit of a floater game to augment his shooting. The offensive upgrade is unquestionable and makes our team better. But Bullock, while not being a lock down guy, was our no.1 perimeter defender so we have to see who takes his place there. The rookies Grimes and McBride will help. Hopefully Fournier can show more on that end.
