Funny shit..

Robin signs with NYK... If DJ doesn't?!

One way or another, the New York Knicks are getting a new center.

Robin Lopez has committed to signing a free-agent deal with the Knicks, barring an unexpected decision by DeAndre Jordan to do the same, according to ESPN's Marc Stein.

Lopez and the Knicks were most recently reported to be in talks on a contract that would pay him between $12 million and $13 million per season.

More to come.

The Lakers lost a free agent max contract TO THE BUCKS
Because he believed they're closer to contention. Lmfao

Lakers felt good about their lma pitch only to be stunned that it was shitty to him and they had to have a do over. Lmao

A free agent chose the knicks. THE KNICKS over the lakers! Lmfao

R.i.p. lakes

 

[Mexi]

Robin is a solid player
Knicks need some rocks. Got 2 in AA and Robin

Oh can't wait to see that Lopez Brothers cross town rivalry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BwareDWare94]

he's still an all-nba caliber player..

Who can only play about 60% of the games

 

[elcheato]

He played 75% of the games last year 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

That's still a good chunk of missed games

 

[elcheato]

So should they have let him walk instead of giving him a one year deal? He's making 5 million more than DeMarre Carroll 

 

[Mexi]

Wesley turned down 64M from the kings and he might not ever be the same player
Ouch

Only team worse off than the lakers is sacramento

Usually new ownership is a good thing. Kings literally stayed the same if not are even worse off with vivek over the maloofs

no I'm fine with the deal from the heat perspective. Just pointing out that missing 20 ish games is a lot

 

[jonathanlambert33]

That Asik deal looks a lot better now that the terms are released, it's 4 years at a 11.2M with a team option the fifth year.

Bitch then stop arguing with me 

 

[elcheato]

The Cavs have Kyrie on 5 years/90 mill and Love on 5 years/110 mill before the new salary cap kicks in. What a time to be alive.
 
This is probably why Gilbert is spending so much, because when the cap inflates he probably won't be in the luxury tax anymore for a brief period, so the repeater tax will reset. 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Mavs got Wesley

 

[elcheato]

David?

 

[Pugz]

Mavs got Wesley

average $13M a season. that team is a perennial first round exit.

 

[bosoxlover12]

David?

James

The Kings will reportedly meet with Josh Smith on Friday.

 
Sacramento continues to lose out on the big name free agents, despite the ability to throw plenty of money at them, so it looks like the apparent dysfunction in the Kings front office is steering some perspective free agents away. The Rockets would like to try and re-sign Smith, but that could become tricky depending on the kind of deal Patrick Beverley earns. The Kings have expressed interest in Smith before, and it'll be interesting to see if they can acquire his services via free agency.
