Woj: Shake Milton is planning to sign with the New York Knicks upon clearing waivers.

[DrCoach]

Solid pickup

27 yrs old, same age as Donte

[nyknicks2k2]

Shake spent 38 games with Minny and 4 with the Pistons.

Wouldn't it make more sense to say we're adding talent from a 41 win squad?

[NoLayupRule]

shake what?

[Gravy]

Love that the Knicks are adding 1/5 of the roster that lit up the NBA for 8 wins.

Killian Hayes still out there. Sign him too.

Sometimes you gotta go to the dollar store and pick up some party supplies.

[Clyde_Style]

shake what?

Shake illton

This is an excellent signing. McBride is probably done after this.

I, for one, don't let facts get in the way of any preconceived narrative I'm pushing.

[thebuzzardman]

I get him confused with Landry Shamet. Should help with the gap.

I get him confused with De'Anthony Melton.

The 76ers having both of them at one point was very confusing.

[cgmw]

A good depth pickup especially with Burks looking so bad.

Deuce should still be ahead of Burks/Shake but you never know what Thibs will do

Insert Thibs maniacal laugh .gif.

All it’ll take is one halfway solid game from a 27 year old to replace Deuce in the rotation. Or one minor Deuce mistake, whichever comes first.

I fully respect this.

Maybe because they both gave us fits in the past. A quality pickup... even more so off of waivers.

It's absolutely a solid pickup.

I think there were cap considerations and they wouldn't pick up anyone, but in Aller We Trust

shake's salary is a lot lower than those of the veteran names we were kicking around. must fit.

It is actually possible

Deuce messing up Burks’ game lol

I thought that was Lauren Boe-

Excuse me, I'll see myself out.

Stand firm, buzz.

The FO can say all they want about bodies but I think this speaks volumes about AB and even the trajectory of Burks career.

He’s gone from 29min to 22min to 20min over the past three seasons (steady decline). The last 5 games he’s been averaging only 14min.

I know there’s a lot of conspiracy theorists out there but the numbers aren’t lying. He’s rapidly got less and less playing time every year and his role - even with all our injuries has been minuscule. Even if you look at McBrides last 6 games, he’s been getting 23min. Thibs got a ex back but he might already want a divorce.

THibs is too stubborn to admit to a mistake , especially so soon. I bet this was an executive decision from above.

[RHODEY]

Just thinking ahead ...when fully healthy how many teams could field a bench squad that could match up to this:

Mitch/or Ihart
Precious
Bogs
Shake
Deuce

We'll be deeper than the Atlantic ocean when all is said and done.
