    Worst franchise in the NBA by far. What a stupid trade.

    Isola said Knicks may make an offer sheet to Kanter.

    @HowardBeck: Monroe met with 4 teams: Bucks, Knicks, Lakers, Blazers. All offered the max, I'm told. Chose Bucks because they're the most playoff ready.

    Blazers would have been interesting as a LMA replacement.

    But right decision.

    Monta/Wes (if it ends up that way) certainly makes the team better. You don't think that creates more than 1 additional win? They traded two assets; Staukas, who isn't that good, but certainly an asset and a non top 10 first round pick.

    Collison/Monta
    Matthews/Gay/Mclemore
    WCS/Cousins

    should win more than 30 games. Certainly not a competitive playoff roster, but at least a team that can compete. People are overating what the Kings gave up.

    There are several reports that the Knicks and Lakers did not offer the max. (including Woj)

    I would LOL if the Knicks sign Kanter though.

    When it comes to NY and LA I think Beck probably has more sources since he actually worked in those cities.

    lol. Because Woj is often wrong, right? Like how he called out the draft 5 mins before the picks were announced (and called picks before the previous team even picked)

    Beck has plenty of sources that WOJ might not have on those cities. You probably didn't even know he worked in LA and NY.

    No, I looked him up and saw what his background is. I just want to stress how incredibly dumb it is to disregard what the guy that knows everything about the NBA has said. If you think Beck has more sources than Woj, you are clinically insane or just unwilling to admit you are wrong.
