Wait, I linked an opinion piece, that wasn't Winderman breaking the news.

Zach Lowe mentioned it in his podcast today, 4 picks, 1 being the Nets pick and the Heat turned it down. Lowe is about as reputable as it gets. This is also not breaking news, it's been known since almost draft night.

Riles dropped the ball!!

Once we learn the details of the Olynyk contract and whether there's a man bun clause we'll know if Riley is good at his job or not.

Are we all really going to ignore that the Knicks gave Hardaway Jr 4 years 71 mil with a 15% trade kicker. Knicks twitter was so awesome when this happened. They thought the stupidity ended with Phil but they forgot who owns the team. Man I can not wait for them to bring Isiah back to run things

@BobbyMarks42
Tim Hardaway Jr. was traded for Jerian Grant who was traded for Derrick Rose who was renounced so NYK could sign Hardaway Jr. for $71M.

Already had it circled, Lonzo's game is so fun to watch.

Also I was thinking today man 4-5 ears ago teams would have been moving mountains for D Rose FA year and now dude can't get any takers. Poor guy, I will never forget that stupid Philly game 1

Crazy how his trajectory changed just like that. You watch highlights of his pre injury days and he was just incredible and people forget
