Bullock posted on IG that he was heading to PHi. Maybe a deal for Tobias Harris and bullock and another player or two to PHI.

If Tobi comes here, then your Rockets should be required to release Bobi so he can be reunited with his two best friends

The Celtics added Brogdon and Gallinari. Is that better than Brunson and Hartenstein? Which pair would you rather?


Brogdon and Gallo as complements to a solid core over Brunson and Hartenstein as pseudo primary guys.

So far I think Boston has had the best offseason.


The Lakers definitely have to be up there too. Adding Bryant, O’Neal and Pippen to Lebron + AD looks tough on paper

How is adding compliments better than adding "primaries"?

Btw, Brunson will be the 3rd option on the Knicks with Hartenstein as a back-up big.

Because Boston raised their ceiling to championships while the Knicks raised theirs to 6 seed, first round loss.

How many third options are making $26 million a year? Jrue Holiday?

I can see Joker because he's a 2 time league MVP, but Beal. Smh Beal is a joke of a player, he's good, but he does not have that drive in him like a Lebron or even Jokic that makes a player go from just being good to being really great. Like championship level great, a level that drives you to wanna win titles.

Wasn't Klay Thompson's deal the richest one before this?

He and Gobert signed those deals as second bananas then got traded to be third bananas or whatever Gobert will be now.

My overarching point is the Knicks signed Brunson to a first or second banana contract when he’s really a third or fourth banana player.

yes, he is a 3rd option, maybe, but he'll become a 2nd option in NY, who knows maybe even a 1st option because Julius Randle is all over the place. He's not dependable at times, and he only drives to the left, he has never developed dribbling to the right side. But Brunson really became a 2nd option in Dallas, so, that's why I say he can become a 2nd option. He played his best ball when Doncic was sidelined by injury, he was basically Dallas' go to player while Doncic was out. Doncic hogs the ball too much when he's playing, and the other players defer to him when he's in the game, it's frustrating for a player that wants the ball also like a Brunson.

Barrett is the primary in NY. He is about to get a max deal and they believe he is a future all star. They needed someone to facilitate to him. Randle can be 3rd and play off the other 2 or be sent somewhere else..

Sorry, I disagree with you. I've watched Barrett since he's been there and he is NOT A PRIMARY, he is not that skilled. He himself could only go to 1 side of the court when he first arrived in NY, but he's worked on his game and has improved in that area and can now go to the right. But he's a player that is up and down, Randle is still the primary imo despite being able to only go to 1 side.
