I completely apologize for doubting Leon Rose! First I find out the last years on all of those deals he signed are team options and now he gets Kemba Walker! Leon the Ninja!

IF this is real, then that is a pretty big deal. Kemba and DRose make for a nice one-two punch at PG and fit Thibs well.

I never saw this coming which is again just how Leon Rose works. Pretty impressive move and as Jason stated all it cost the Knicks is money. The Knicks keep the core together and they add exactly what was needed in scoring and players who can get their own offense.
More on this after I watch some Kemba videos. I should note going into all this I wanted Collin Sexton and Kelly Oubre. I was a little off.

CHESS. You have 2 PGs that need their minutes limited. Having both should help each. And you are ok if either has to miss a game or games.

I'm supposed to be working but I'm just a little in shock. Leon Rose and WWW I chastised for what looked like shutting the bed this summer, and they replaced Bullock, Frank and Payton with Fournier, Kemba, Mcbride and Grimes. We stayed consistent and upgraded every player that went out. Wow!! |

Leon Rose and WWW I chastised for what looked like shutting the bed this summer, and they replaced Bullock, Frank and Payton with Fournier, Kemba, Mcbride and Grimes. We stayed consistent and upgraded every player that went out. Wow!! Bro this takes so much pressure off of Randle with two great playmaking and perimeter threats in Rose and Kemba. Fournier is someone you gotta respect and leave open and who also can penetrate. Robinson will yam it on you if Kemba and Rose and other give him the rock anywhere near the Burg Khalifa lob range. RJ will drive and also hit that corner three. Quickley, Grimes, and Mcbride(if he gets playing time) can score multiple ways. Obi is evolving. I'm really excited for next season. I'm still taken aback. Also with team options in everyone's deals, we can easily flip them, especially Kemba for a higher impact player if it doesn't work out. Had this happened a few days earlier I'm sure the Lakers would've pounced on him being bought out and we would've had Kendrick Nunn. Think about the actual timing of this. Wow!! |

I think we played this free agency with chemistry in mind,we added quality character guy Kemba is an awesome addition to the locker room,Rose is great other teams pick him up everyone loves Dee Rose,we have gret great chemistry Obi,RJ ,Randle,Taj,Mitch,Noel,Burks and IQ is going to be great year two these kids have not stopped working to get better,hard works provides results and Randle is a testimony to that.The future with Deuce and Grimes looks like they fit that mold to a tee.The future so bright I have to wear shades.The Knicks got alot of info on Fournier so I'm comfy with move there as a fit.
