because jamison  is that young superstar lebron can win multiple championships with.
 if the cavs win a title this year he most likely will bolt to another team.

playing with wade/bosh/or amare> playing with 3 players on the verge of retiring

i swear buk sometimes i think you say things just out of spite
  

 

[kiddin like jason]

He'll get traded before he becomes a free agent, though. I know how this works; I'm an Indians fan.

 

[thasoleful1]

captain kirk has to go, maybe to the lakers

 

[franchise3]

I'd quote Mike if I could on my phone, but he's right.

If the Knicks strike out in 2010, what makes them think they'll have a better shot in 2011?

 

[im not you]

3 first round draft picks of 2009...2 of them lottery picks have been traded this season. Interesting.

i'm 22. as long as they win a chip before i die, i'm good playing the waiting game. why would we waste money and end up like detroit?

what does that tell you about knick fans patience?

whose the other? joodie meeks?

im surprised bucks traded him.


2011 has CP3, who i know for sure def. isnt having a good time in NO. i would like deron the most, although i think he likes it in Utah.

 

[billy hoyle]

man looks like i missed a lot, trade deadline ends in 8 minutes

 

[franchise3]

And do the Knicks, if they strike out in 2010, be content with stinking it up for another year, and more then likely, see their lotto pick go to Houston to gear up again for 2011.

Either the Knicks land the studs they want or settle for a guy or two they don't really want.

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

i wouldnt min shannon for kirk...

i just dont want dfish, farmark, sasha or morrison in return

hell, give me mbenga instead of any of those guys

Do you think they completely fan on 2010 though? I don't...

Maybe not LeBron, but I still think they're looking at one of Wade, Bosh, Amare... Then hold off another year and you've got a TON of cap space plus Curry's contract... Whether that means somebody panics and you can absorb money through trade or you wait it out and try again next offseason, there are still PLENTY of options...

That's the point. The Knicks haven't locked themselves into a "We have to do something NOW" scenario... They have options.

 

[smoothrick007]

I like what the Rockets did.

Now we have a post that's over 6'8

And we have Kevin Martin

Aaron Brooks, Kevin Martin, Shane Battier, Luis Scola, Jordan Hill

I do see that as an appeal.  Having the options is nice.  Gotta hand them that. 

It's just interesting to me the way they are going, complete free agent overhaul for either 2010, thru 2012, with pretty much zero draft picks to use to build off of/supplement.  Unique I guess.

Yea but what they were left with after Isiah, they can't ask to be in a better position than they are right now.  Just a waiting game between now and July 1st (unless they somehow miraculously make the playoffs).

the reward is much greater than the risk.

at u thinking you'll receive a lotto pick. seriously though? seriously? it seems as if we're getting just as many haters as bandwagoners. o btw, good luck with hill (ariza 2.0)

With all these "sources" and twitter accounts and people trying to make a name for themselves, things are going to get out faster than that. But to the guy who said T-Mac hasnt worked out in a month, what about all that was written/said he was working out with Tim Grover in Chicago?

 

[size 15 please]

Who is this clown talkin about the Sixers

 

[yeeupp]

Ill like to see How Hill plays, he should be decent. He shoot better than Ariza..

 

[thasoleful1]

there goes nate rob

When he was told to stay away from the team, he's been working out in Chicago. Wade said he can still ball, and Walsh went to see him workout like last week... That may tell you something.
