@Johnnymetal80 @JCMacriNBA Would be a contract that keeps an injured player on our roster and hinders us from picking anyone else up. We can resign Landry later on, based on how he rehabs.

@JCMacriNBA Why not keep shamet if they're only gonna keep 12 players? You need 14 so why not keep 13

Knicks making their moves.
NY Knicks PR@NY_KnicksPR
Knicks waive Chuma Okeke, Landry Shamet and T.J. Warren.

@NBA_NewYork And PG is now dealing with his knee... does that change Embid's stance for his team?

The first two matchups between the Knicks and the Sixers are back-to-back for the Sixers

Describe this player with three words or less….

@alanhahn The beauty of having a whole team and not just relying on 2 dudes! What a feeling!!!
English
Fans will get mad at this but it’s a fair take. The elite teams have those crunch time killers. That may be the last step for Brunson to make to complete his ascension. His clutch stats are good but Shump means game-winners, daggers. Close the deal. Jalen has it in him.
First Take@FirstTake
"I love [KAT and Jalen Brunson] on paper. ... I don't love that at the end of the game in the playoffs. It's not scary enough." —@imanshumpert on the new-look Knicks 👀

@BobbyMarks42 @ramonashelburne Any chance that Richards is a part of the deal and coming to NY?
English
This trade has a lot of moving parts.
Because New York is over the first apron, they cannot take back more money in the trade and will need to send out an additional $8.8M in salary.
Minnesota is over the apron and cannot take back more salary from what is sent out.
Enter the third team- Charlotte
Besides Keita Bates-Diop ($2.6M), New York has DaQuan Jeffries, Duane Washington Jr. and Charlie Brown Jr. available for a sign-and-trade.
Jeffries, Washington Jr. and Brown Jr. are eligible because they finished the season on the New York roster.
A sign-and-trade has to be a minimum of three season, with only the first year guaranteed.
Ramona Shelburne@ramonashelburne
The Knicks-TWolves-Hornets trade involving Julius Randle, Karl Anthony Towns and Donte DiVincenzo is still on track, but not completed yet. The expectation is early this week, sources tell ESPN, which means the players involved will not be at media day as camps start to open Monday.
English
@IanBegley So is there a chance we gettin Nick Richards and more?
English
With Knicks waiving Marcus Morris Sr. and Chuma Okeke, veteran Landry Shamet is currently well positioned to make the 15-man roster. Obviously a fluid situation as the details of the Karl Anthony Towns trade have yet to be finalized.
English
@JCMacriNBA This has to be the best signing made for my Knicks. Don't have to worry about no more, "rumors". Not to mention, recently getting diagnosed with, "Bell's Palsy" and locking down on more money for more years?! Thumbs Up!!!
English
Some real 4D chess by the Sixers, giving a guy who treats his conditioning like a leisure activity nearly 200 million additional dollars through his mid-30’s.
I’m sure this April he’ll be in the best shape of his life.
English
@JCMacriNBA Word is... this signing does not touch our salary cap at all. Deuce will be part of a package that brings us what we need.
English
Some quick(ish) thoughts on the Landry Shamet signing and why the contract details matter a lot here.
English
Should the Knicks consider inviting 7’4 Boban Marjanovic to training camp?
English
@EddiePresti_ Am I missing something with this AD talk? Very talented big who can be a monster on any given night... who is also making a lot of money is far from durable. We trade for him, he sneezes, and then sits for most of the year... is that the plan?
English
Anthony Davis to the Knicks for:
Bojan+Duece+Mitch +25NY+27NY+29NY+25MIL+2 swaps?
Y/N?
English
@JCMacriNBA So you move away... you don't pull a 7' Footer down towards you, to potentially hurt yourself or him. He should be suspended a game.
English
@wojespn That's a set up... unfortunately, his Achilles will end up getting hurt. The calf is the prelude.
English
After an MRI, Giannis Antetokounmpo’s left Achilles tendon is fully intact and his return to play will come with how quickly his left calf strain heals, sources tell ESPN.
English
@TheDunkCentral @BobbyMarks42 To give to Shaq? Who's going to Detroit?
English
The Detroit Pistons are now projected to have $64M in cap room this offseason 👀🔥

English
@ToddyWoddy1330 That wasn't the trade though. We also got Precious and Malachi. Plus, the pick is a 2nd. This post is a little misleading. We got a wing that can defend and more depth. Great trade. RJ and IQ weren't going to make it here for the price we needed them at.
English
I’m an OG Anunoby fan but he is not Immanuel Quickley + RJ Barrett + Picks good. Hope I’m wrong.
English
@IAMRJPAYNE @djkhaled @3LMthree @analoglady @FINALLEVEL @C_Lance_ @Pa_dre_beats @Watson3172 @cartunebeatz @CherchezLaPorsh Fam... that, "I'm TruLife/ I'm Psycho/ I'm punching rappers in the face" - have to ask if that was intentional? Tru being from the LES... tied into, "Psycho Les"?
English
@TheCohencidence We should be looking at Ken Lofton Jr, Whiteside, and players that can help now, with no commitment to the future.
English
This is brutal.
The DPE is worth half of Mitch's salary. The Knicks have to stay under the hard cap of $172.3M because of the DiVincenzo signing. Any player they acquire via trade with the DPE has to be on an expiring contract, and the exception can only be used on one player
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The New York Knicks have applied to the NBA for a Disabled Player Exception worth $7.8 million as the franchise projects center Mitchell Robinson will miss the rest of the season, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Major development as Robinson had ankle surgery last week.

Miami Heat make NBA Finals and then draft Jaime Jaquez in first round. Knicks eliminated in second round by Heat and don’t have a player from the 2022 or 2023 draft on roster. Heat by 21
English
@JCMacriNBA They also had to give up Williams which means their middle is depleted and trusting an older Al and a forever injured KP can't be a solid idea that the whole organization is behind.
English
I was extremely intrigued by the idea of Jrue on the Knicks, but they had no business trying to beat what the Celtics ended up paying for Jrue, not at this stage.
Still a bummer to see him go to Boston. That team is going to be hell to play.
