Why do people think like this? The Knicks got an all-time performance from their role guys and that’s taken them where they are. Cavs have top guys and specialist. They need two-way guys to compliment their top guys
NY is that good. Spurs are that good. OKC is that good. There are always levels to this. The key point is the Cavs aren’t that good and need to improve substantially to get on the same level. If anything, the last few weeks should be a window into how far away they are.
It's Lakers or Cavs. Mostly lean Lakers but he’s petty king so if they keep playing he’s gone.
I can’t imagine a world where he returns to LAL on a discount deal. I can see a world where he takes less to play in CLE or GSW. Not minimum less but less
Let me fill you in on a secret:
Unless you're the one playing, or a family member is, the overall experience is usually better on TV.
Can go into the why and all of the variables, but yeah, whether you're at a watch party or on your own sofa, you're likely in the right place.
1) If you're counting on energy from the people courtside you're silly
2) Halftime during the playoffs should be longer to allow fans time to use the restroom, get a snack, AND get back to their seats on time. It's been every stadium, every playoff game. The lower bowl is empty

I was freaking out during the first 5 minutes of that 3rd quarter" ~ @PSchrags#PMSLive
Just hilarious watching these Knicks roles players right now. Starters not named Brunson are 13/17 from the field. They are shooting 76% 😂😂 what are you supposed to do?
Big 12 ADs tell @YahooSports they’ve had “serious” talks on not playing Texas Tech. One SEC AD says there should be conversations about not playing Tech “in any sports.”
The Brendan Sorsby ruling has left an industry jarred.
“It’s total f***** bullshit.”

@Rob_Shenanigans No, you’re right. It was certainly a mistake that he continually made which is on him.
He didn’t bet on games he played in. He admitted to everything and admitted to having an issue and is going to rehab. My point is, he’s not Emmanuel Clase or Jontay Porter
This is starting to feel like MVP voting lol I feel bad for Sorsby. A bunch of media folks will speak up and sway others opinions.
We get a little carried away with wanting to punish 18 year olds that get loads od cash and end up doing exactly what other people their age do
I’ve never had an issue paying players- above or under the table. It is what is. But you can’t bet on your own sport & team as a CFB player. That sets a very dangerous precedent. No other way to say it. I’m not saying he can’t have an NFL career but there has to be some meaningful punishment here.
@realcavsfans I’m hopeful there’s a team out there willing to take him. Nuggets come to mind. Don’t think they want Jonas so turning him into Schroeder instead of cutting him could work. They need a back-up PG.
Not sure they’d want him at his salary but neither do we lol
Karl-Anthony Towns long-term future with the Knicks is uncertain even if they win the NBA Finals, per @sam_amick
“If the Knicks do, in fact, tie the bow on this NBA Finals package, there will still be a discussion to be had with Towns about securing his services for the long-term. He has one guaranteed season left on his current deal, with a player option worth $61 million for the 2027-28 campaign, and is eligible for a massive extension (four years and a combined $272 million). The reality of today’s NBA means there are second-apron concerns for the Knicks to take into consideration, and a desire to be prudent enough with the payroll so as not to compromise roster depth. But the tone of those talks, given everything Towns has done here, should be far more flattering toward him this time around. He deserves immense credit for that much.”

@realcavsfans Should (🤞 Harden’s number) put you under both aprons and free up the full MLE which is really where you can improve imo.
Harden
Spida
Full MLE (Oubre)
Mobley
Allen
Strus trade
Merrill
Tyson
Wade
Dennis trade
Procter
Tomlin
Pick
Pick
Strus trade for back-up PG**
@realcavsfans Imo everything he’s done has been about flexibility and getting under the apron. If you can save $10 by trading Strus & Dennis while getting a back-up C & a back-up 2 that’s perfect. That would cover your Wade extension. Harden extension, decline Porter, and trade 1st for 2nds….
