Golf courses,farms, and even suburban lawns burn through wayyy more water than AI data centers but somehow the outrage is pointed at compute.
Sophie Cunningham@sophaller
so how do we save our farm land and stop all these dumb data centers?

@TheCohencidence @LockedOnKnicks Who’s left? Olynyk probably the best center left and I’m not kidding. That’s how bad it is lol. And I DOUBT hed take a min considering a single center has yet to take the min. Not one.

🧵With the Knicks re-signing Jordan Clarkson, they have $3.27M in second apron space and must eventually fill one more roster spot. This means they can:
1) Sign a vet and have $824K in space OR
2) Sign a rookie and have $1.92M in space
I'd prefer option 1 with NY signing a big

I’d attach a second or two to get Dadiet dumped somewhere just to sign Kevin McCullar Jr.
Ok maybe I wouldn’t, that might be a bit much but losing this guy I think would be a shame.

@SamQuinnCBS Third cap-saving move something needs to happen. Herro?

Feels like a setup trade for Detroit.

The Detroit Pistons are trading Caris LeVert and two second-round picks to the Milwaukee Bucks for Taurean Prince and Gary Harris, sources tell ESPN. Pistons will create a trade exception from the deal and savings while Bucks acquire LeVert and pick up assets.

@PlayoffBoundNYK He led directly to Bridges. Without him we don’t have matching salaries with Bogdanovic trade

On one hand I owe Quentin Grimes my life for being the reason why we didn’t go ahead and trade for Donovan Mitchell.
On the other hand I’m still mad he didn’t make it to the finish line with us, he had everything but got in his own head unlike anyone I’ve ever seen.

Mitchell Robinson (@23savage____) will wear No. 4 for the #Celtics. Number last worn by Nikola Vučević in 2026. #NBA
Brad hit on it, but the new CBA really is crazy
the fact that Jaylen/Tatum went from 47% of the cap to 70% is crazy
The Celts drafted and developed two guys that earned super max contracts .
That led to making massive changes.

Had we kept Mitch at the same value, we are ABOVE the 2nd apron by $9.5M. Assume we salary dump Dadiet and maybe we are only $7.9M. Fine, but know that there are minimal exits out of the apron this season if an injury happens of Mitch plays 40 games or less (likely).

KNICKS Math/Salary Cap Analysis:
OK, way too Knicks fans mad about not keeping Mitch. Blaming Dolan for this. Ok, fine. But for anyone who's actually in a rational state of mind and wants to see some numbers, pay attention and let's go to class. Long thread awaiting.

From a guy I spoke to in an EC front office this morning:
“Pelicans are looking for a center more than they are talking Trey/Herb trades. They are willing to part with draft capital to get one but they are insisting picks be protected. It’s like they just discovered their ability to do this”
He mentions Turner, Reid, Okongwu, and Carter, Jr as guys he knows the Pelicans have checked in on

Savvy move by Memphis to put pressure on Golden State with this offer sheet. Quinten Post got way better defensively in Year 2 with the Warriors, and I believe in his 3-pointer. Would be a loss if they don't match it, and a perfect backup to Zach Edey if he goes to the Grizzlies.
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
Restricted free agent Quinten Post is signing a three-year, $30 million contract offer sheet with the Memphis Grizzlies, sources tell ESPN. The Golden State Warriors have until 11:59pm ET on Tuesday to match.
