[Gozlan] The New York Knicks are now $16.9 million below the $188.9 million second apron with 11 players. They have enough flexibility to re-sign Precious Achiuwa and use the $5.2 million taxpayer mid-level exception.

    Brock Aller and Leon Rose working their magic

    Who are the best taxpayer MLE caliber players left out there?

    Center is first priority but we could also add a PG, since it frees up the ability to trade Deuce for a solid backup C.

    Also to note we can trade someone into the taxpayer MLE. It doesn’t have to be a FA signing.

    Knicks are spending Independence Day freeing themselves from the apron.

    That’s means they are barely above the luxury tax line. LOL master class

    I personally wanted Precious back. I hope he signs for a somewhat reasonable pact in the Deuce AAV.

    I’m glad for two reasons, they got the cap down, and that the reporter said re-sign. I hate seeing resign, that’s literally the opposite.

    Precious is awesome he’s perfect off the bench for us

    Leon and the FO showing their skill and dedication 👏👏👏

    Paul George is yelling at his Agent right now, he was promised an ECF run

    What a god-level FA masterclass shit is this. Leon a fcking madlad.

    Finally, after a very long time, I’m looking sooooo forward for the next season💪🏼💪🏼🏀🏀

    Maybe Knicks just resign precious and go from there. Save the tp mle for an in season trade.

  14. I hate this fucking shit. Smart teams like the Knicks have to do all this nonsense to get under these aprons and fans have to waste brain cells on this shit instead of just enjoying the game.

    We can’t even get just fun straight-up player swaps anymore (the Bulls Caruso trade the rare exception). Almost always some complicated salary shit involved.

    And for what? To help the Sacramentos and Minnesotas of the world compete? Those teams spend *decades* in the lottery, wasting high pick after high pick. Even Minnesota, a small-market “success” story – it took them *nine years* after getting the #1 pick in K.A.T. to win a playoff series.

    Small markets have not been been helped by all this luxury tax/apron/and lottery nonsense

    Enough
