Such a BS call

[Yahoo Sports @YahooSports]

FIFA confirms there is no mechanism to appeal a World Cup red card, per The Athletic.

USMNT's Folarin Balogun will miss the team's Round of 16 match vs. Belgium after being red carded in tonight's win.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

I wonder if Herb Williams will be available for Knicks backup C position.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent center Marvin Bagley III has agreed to a one-year deal with the Denver Nuggets, sources tell ESPN. A critical frontcourt addition for the Nuggets.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

@bisquiggles That’s worrisome cause Brad Steven’s generally knows what he’s doing.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Maybe I’m a bitter Knick fan but why would Boston give Mitch 3 years and almost 50 mil and then immediately make their team worse by downgrading brown for George whose contract is terrible for 2 more years and their return of picks isn’t even great?

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

I think he is talking more about where LeBron lands and not about the Knicks.

[Joe 🗽 @JoeLiuzzi88]

I'm telling yall, the Knicks are up to something 👀

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

That red card is complete BS.

There was no intent. Yellow at worst but should just be a foul.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

@BrockRob86 💯 they felt they had a shot so went with it.

I also think they didnt know about the 2nd apron mandate and now with deuce they have that information already.

With Shamet & Alvarado locked in long term off bench, it would surprise me if deuce isn’t traded b/w now and Feb.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Sign 2 of the Vets and be prepared for tj to make a deal likely moving deuce for size at the deadline.

We will be in same spot with Deuce am next offseason as we were with Mitch except I’d argue Duece will have an even larger market.

[Tommy Beer @TommyBeer]

Knicks should be okay depthwise behind KAT if they sign 2 of these 6:
Kevon Looney, Nick Richards, Andre Drummond, Marvin Bagley III, Kelly Olynyk, Larry Nance Jr.

Remember, they can also go smallball with OG, Diawara or even Hart at the 5 for stretches.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

@THold42 Agree which likely means Deuce out the door which sucks but I expect to happen anyway because he’s up for big contract next offseason.

I’m just not sure Char is interested in something like that.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

I guess give me 2 of 3 out of mamu, Richards, and Drummond but man this is gross.

[Tommy Beer @TommyBeer]

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

I had come to terms with Mitch leaving (all cause of Dolan’s position) but going to Boston hurts

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

This was my biggest fear with Detroit being second.

This is all on Dolan for not going into second apron.

Absolute crushing loss considering how limited the market is to backfill this position.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent center Mitchell Robinson has agreed to a three-year, $47.4 million deal to sign with the Boston Celtics, with a player option in third season, sources tell ESPN. Robinson departs the Knicks after serving a key role on the historic championship team.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Not gonna lie. Wasnt expecting this.

Knicks frontcourt depth is in trouble. The market is thinning fast.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent center Ariel Hukporti has agreed to a one-year, $3.4 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Hukporti departs the Knicks after playing a reserve role on their title team, and gives the 76ers frontcourt depth and a high-motor, athletic big man.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Most Cs to sign have been back to their own teams.

The ones likely to be on move are waiting for the Duren and Kessler shoes to drop as that will determine their market.

[SleeperKnicks @SleeperKnicks]

I can’t be the only person who finds the lack of genuine Mitchell Robinson rumors interesting right?

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

“Shooting” frontcourt piece is interesting description. The Knicks were leaving him open in the ECF. Cavs offense felt way more dangerous with Merrill or Straus on floor.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent forward Dean Wade has agreed to a four-year, $39 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Several contenders pursued the former Cavaliers forward, who has become an indispensable defending and shooting frontcourt piece.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Hard to remember a more underwhelming opening day of Free Agency.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

I can promise teams are going to have no issues leaving THJ to double GA.

[Chris Haynes @ChrisBHaynes]

Free agent sharpshooter Tim Hardaway Jr. will be signing with the Miami Heat to provide the organization with the spacing needed for Giannis Antetokounmpo, league sources tell me.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Okay now maybe Clarkson is back or I could see the Kelly Oubre thing but only on vet mins

[Knicks Nation @KnicksNation]

“The plan entering free agency for second-round pick Jack Kayil is that he play next season overseas with his current club in Germany”

Interesting.

[Mike Williamson @mwilliamson03]

Aspiration will cover the 7.45

[Yossi Gozlan @YossiGozlan]

The Raptors luxury tax/apron situation is fluid due to Kawhi Leonard's $7.45 million trade bonus.

He will need to waive most of it unless Raptors shed more payroll.

They'd have enough room to fill their final four roster spots with minimum salaries if he waives it all.
