@jordan_marlo_@ImADishCloth there is a faction of the fanbase prone to complaining regardless of the circumstances. Most observers understood that matching the contract was the anticipated outcome. important to note that Cisse has a no-trade clause for his first year, he is not being flipped
@GMZeroOG When you consider that he was set to cost $84 million in tax and became essentially unplayable during last yearβs playoffs makes sense they chose Wallace over Dort
@DadietMuse You still have to score to win. Getting Lu Dort makes the Hawks' defense better, but that's one less offensive threat the Knicks have to worry about guarding.
@travbryanmusic OKC needed to shed salary to escape the second apron, they get three second-round picks for a player they could have just declined to guarantee. Atlanta gets an absolute bargain, but OKC does what they always doβextracting value rather than letting an asset walk for free.
@Flyhigher67 The Knicks were doing the agent a favor. He was getting a vet min or two-way regardless; this just guarantees the minimum by Oct 1. Itβs the same agent who took a deal to help the Knicks two years ago.
