2015 NY Knicks offseason thread, Los Almighty appreciation thread

Here's another important piece to Monroe waiting until the summer – beyond preferring to have his choice. Why would a team want to give up a player or draft pick for Monroe when that teams knows it can get Monroe without giving up assets? And look at it from Monroe's perspective: he wants a team to keep its assets so it can be as good as possible when he joins.

Monroe carefully made his decision, and with the Pistons nowhere near a playoff team, he has just four more months of this situation. Sure he's frustrated by losing, but Detroit has not won more than 30 games in a season since it drafted Monroe as the No. 7 pick in 2010. He can wait it out.

"Greg has a great deal of respect for Stan and even though Greg is frustrated by the losing, he knows Stan is a terrific coach," Falk said.

Monroe is averaging 15 points, 9.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists and has eight double-doubles. Atlanta had interest in the summer and may have interest again in July. It's also not a stretch to picture Monroe with the New York Knicks and the triangle offense. But there will be other teams looking for a big man, too.

He's the anti-Melo! :lol:
 
I'd like Gallo back but idk if he's worth it with his health and contract. Think he'd be a great fit for us though and could definitely be acquired.

I do not want to see Gallo on this team. **** no. Two knee surgeries, good shooter but does nothing else. No thanks.
 
Gallo really isn't even a great shooter though :lol:

Can't believe this troll D'Antoni hyped him up and said "he's the best shooter I've ever seen" :rofl:

if he would have just looked out of his apartment window he would have seen cesar shooting 90% from half court 
 
So Rondo to the Mavs is likely? Hmmm

Or it could just be a story out there to put pressure on other organizations (like us) to give up more and a lottery pick.
 
I think I saw Ainge is only trying to trade him to the West.

Also, I'm not tryna gut the team for 1 guy like we did for Melo.

Oh, I'm not trying to either. I think it's great news we don't go after Rondo and trade our picks.

I just wanted the playoff-push Knicks fans to know that Rondo dream is dead.
