Here for the Myles Powell signing
My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

It is now. I have something to root for regardless of how bad the team is. Powell should at least make the team and hopefully get in there, he's always played great at the Garden.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.

The Knicks declined team option on Bobby Portis ($15.7M) and waived Taj Gibson ($10.29M) and Elfrid Payton ($8M), sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Frees up salary space for New York.

Myles Powell's point totals in the final 6 games at Madison Square Garden in his Seton Hall career:

28 vs. Kentucky
26 vs. St. John's
31 vs. Georgetown (BET)
22 vs. Marquette (BET)
25 vs. Villanova (BET)
29 vs. St. John's

That's an average of 28.6 points. #Knicks #shbb

Ellington, Pinson, and Wooten gone.

$40 total cap space freed up.

Only previous players I care about keeping are RJ Barrett, Mitch Robinson and Frank Ntlikina.

Good defender, will likely never justify where we drafted him. Of the three I'd be least upset by him going.

Frank is gonna be back in France within the next 3 years

He is up there as one of the shittiest players I have ever seen/watched. definitely the softest player i've ever seen. knick fan reddit jerks off to him because of his 'drip', which is actually horrible too. he is such a shitty player, i'm tired of seeing him and tired of him talked about as a prospect. he is excrement. he air balls more shots than he hits, has no aggressiveness or urgency to his game, cannot lead or set up an offense. he is also the most overrated defensive player i have ever seen. his defense is so fvcin mid, but knick fans jerk off to his defense because he is a try-hard on that end of the floor. he gets his cheeks clapped regularly on the defensive end. spencer fvckin dinwiddie has had multiple career games against frank LMAO.

knox is also a lost cause but he is not actually worth the energy it'll take to write why he has no future in the league

RJ, Mitch, Dotson are the only talents worth keeping on this team. RJ and Mitch are very imperfect. Mitch needs to work on consistency and mental toughness as well as basketball IQ.

I like RJ but there are going to be 'limits' to his stardom that I don't think he can actually improve/overcome. he can run in a straight line very fast but other than that, his lateral mobility/agility with and without the ball is very limited. driving/moving to their left or right is something basic that all great players possess, and he doesn't have much, if any, lateral wiggle. also, he just dribbles the ball way too high and i don't think he can get low. every time he drives or attacks with the ball, defenders' eyes are wide open because they feel they'll be able to steal the ball off of him, and it embarrassingly happened multiple times this season. i feel his ceiling on this team will be as a #2 type guy at his best.

the form on his J is great but his shot is still so excrement/inconsistent. this is something i think he can actually work/improve on.

this team is so devoid of talent

RJ, Mitch, and Obi will be fun to watch.  The team will still be buns though.

Wow, I forgot all about Dotson and Knox. I don't see Knox ever being good, Dotson is a streaky shooter. It will be fun to watch a young Knicks team though.

Taj and Portis declined their player options.  Payton is out too.  Pretty much everyone is gone.

I'd like to see Gibson come back on a cheap, one year deal to backup Mitch.
