People only talk about winning teams in any sport for the most part. And LBJ is the biggest star in basketball so that would make sense. But yes I rewatched part of the game. Dubs missed a lot of shots they would make. Toronto played like this game really mattered to them. And that's understandable. But for me this nor any otger game really matters because they gonna be completely different come playoffs. That 73 win season ruin them. Also with boogie they will be a different team. It will be interesting seeing Toronto battle Boston and Milwaukee though. I'm not sure Toronto will come out of east

White boy the 'victim" now huh

Ron Baker becomes victim of Knicks’ Allonzo Trier discovery

The Bake Show has been canceled.

The Knicks have agreed to a two-year deal with stud rookie Allonzo Trier that will force them to release reserve guard Ron Baker, an NBA source confirmed.

Trier’s two-way G League contract has been converted into a two-year, estimated $6.8 million deal in which the Knicks will use their biannual exception and could cost them cap space for next season. According to an NBA source, the second year, worth $3.5 million, is a team option. The Knicks will have to make a decision before July 1 free agency begins.

If the Knicks exercise Trier’s option it would leave them with $30 million in cap space. That factors in Kristaps Porzingis’ cap hold and waiving Damyean Dotson’s final non-guaranteed year.


, who is a 3-point shooting big man the Knicks still want to develop.

“Ron is a true professional and we thank him for all of his contributions during his time with the Knicks,” Knicks president Steve Mills said. “His dedication and passion for the game are unquestioned and have been truly appreciated by our fans and organization. We wish him all the best.”

The approximate deadline for the Trier deal had been Saturday, but that was getting pushed back as he is currently sitting out with a strained hamstring. He is averaging 11 points per game this season and has made the biggest impact among the Knicks’ three rookies.


Kornet played 8 minutes in Wednesday night’s loss to the Cavaliers, grabbing three rebounds. Baker was a favorite of former coach Jeff Hornacek and former team president Phil Jackson. He signed a two-year, $8.9 million deal before the 2017 season in a shocker, as he never improved his 3-point shot despite showing defensive grit.

The Athletic first reported Baker was to be waived.

Even though Lake Show taking an L tonight, I like the way they've played overall. The refs have been horrible. :smh: Lakers cant sleep on Saturday nights game in Charlotte. Hornets are gonna really get up for that game and approach it like a Final. Im ready for BI and Rondo to come back.

Phoenix. :smh:

What did you gain?

Kelly Oubre is average, and you have Bridges.

Washington, he helps with them getting rid of money. So it was good on their end.

Austin Rivers and Jabari Parker already look like the two worst free agent signings. After 20 games they wanted to get rid of them.
