NYK '14 offseason thread

[championboyz7]

Just fire Woodson and the team will start to win games.

You don't even need to get a good replacement, just getting a coaching change will result in a little boost in confidence. Fire Woodson and go 7-3 and start to climb out of this hole.

No we won't Have any changes on this team this season . The boss has spoken .
God I hate this team.

 

[goldenchild9]

Is there any way we can blame Melo for how badly we've looked the last couple of games, even though he's not playing?


I'm sure there's a way to point the finger at him somehow...

Imagine if we got Bynum on this team

 

[harlemtothebronx]

Glad I didn't watch again.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

I hope Bynum becomes a knick.

 

[8pm at msg]

I hope Bynum becomes a knick.

We got plenty of banks in NY

 

[the 718 truth]

I hope Bynum becomes a knick.

You mean the guy who doesn't want to play basketball?

 

[Hahahaha]

Woodson, Beno and 77 all have to go.

This team is so bad, Murry should get serious minutes. He had some great plays last night. He's not ready but I like his game better than Beno's.

77 is trash and Woodson doesn't have control of the team. His coaching methods don't even seem the same as last year. He looks like a different man.

 

[Coupé It]

I just looked at the schedule.

:x

We're not winning a game for a while. About to go on a long losing streak.

Blow it upppp, up, up.

 

[ballinsam23]

bosh would be perfect for us

 

[pr0phecy718]

Which one of you dudes throwing a New Year's Eve party?!

 

[GaBeGRaMz]

I'm all for ANY expiring contract.

Including Yolo Bynum.

 

[you go boy]

just sign jeremy tyler and cut chris smith already forget burning bridges

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Bynum and Andy for stoudemire.

 

[flyeed]

random, but never knew Spero Dedes was an NFL broadcaster too. as much as we hate Breen, it's pretty cool we have a guy who calls the finals and someone who's regarded highly enough to call multiple sports. And can't forget Clyde.

 

[flyeed]

I'm all for ANY expiring contract.

Including Yolo Bynum.

according to hoopshype, Bynum expires in 2015.

Former exec: Nuggets player was 'stoned' at 2010 playoffs practice

The Denver Post shares this anecdote from a Denver Nuggets practice in 2010, courtesy of fomer executive Rex Chapman:

It was the morning of a 2010 playoff game, and one of the Nuggets had just smoked some nuggets. As the team practiced, the player was so high that Rex Chapman, a team executive at the time, said he had to pull the player aside to get him to focus.

"Across all walks of life and in every profession, people smoke (marijuana). This is no secret, and pro sports are not exempt," said Chapman, who played 12 years in the NBA. "But employers deserve and pay for A-plus employees. There is a time and place for everything. As a member of a team, guys owe it to their teammates to put their best foot forward."

via Athletes and Pot: Legalized marijuana in a league of its own -- The Denver Post.

The story comes as part of a wide-ranging and fascinating story on the status of marijuana as the substance prepares to become legal for retail sale in Colorado after a ballot initiative passed last year. Professional sports leagues have made no indication they intend to change their stances on it being a banned substance they test for.

Here's the roster for the 2010 Nuggets if you'd like to take a guess at who the chronic offender was.

The NBA didn't start officially testing for marijuana until 1999.

@IanBegley: Hearing: as #Knicks inch closer to signing F/C Jeremy Tyler, they are strongly considering cutting G Chris Smith instead of C Cole Aldrich.

 

[Hahahaha]

Cut Chris and Cole. Both are trash. Cut Beno and 77 too

I'm also all for trading Shump in a deal for Deng.

 

[Mark Antony]

Well, it is the closest thing to "work" I've seen from them all season. Put em in the dirt.

 

[sohoguy]

Blow the team up, change the jerseys, cut coach, and management. Everything must go

The dark ages have returned

 

[x Buddha Bless x]

I would've voted yes but I do not have faith It's just that statistically speaking there's a relatively good chance we make the playoffs off of one or two good winning streaks and .500 ball after.

I'm also all for trading Shump in a deal for Deng.

We can do better than that but most likely worse. Either way I don't want Deng on this team.
