**Official '11 NYK LOCKOUT thread*** lockout over

If we get Melo, we could give the Magic an amazing series and hell, might even be able to sneak one out in six or seven games, word to the old Heat rivalry.

If there's a team we should be hoping to see in the first round, it's Chicago.

The only team we would be able to beat in the first round is Chicago and I doubt we beat them when they are fully healthy.

This or ATL (not likely) is what I'm hoping for

When I watch them play other teams and the last two against us they're not great defenders despite their coach, don't guard the 3 well, and like us can go in to scoring droughts. Plus outside of Rose not many on their team can keep up with that D'Antoni tempo.

I know we wouldn't be 60% from the field every game but between what STAT can do and how we work them on offense I'd we have a shot to win in 7. Also, if we had Melo I have no doubt we'd beat them. Especially with the current trade rumor.

[GaBeGRaMz]

Also, why is it out right that Dwight will get Amare/Mozgov in foul trouble ? Is Amare not one of the best bigs in the L as well ? Couldn't he get Dwight in the foul trouble ?

 

[yeeupp]

Best chances are CHI or ATL

IF we land Melo.. then IDK

Marc Gasol restricted
Nene might want out of Denver
Perkins just turned down a 4yr / $30M extension
Dalembert expiring

Still won't have enough $ for them ?

Peter Vecsey

Hopefully, nobody halfway coherent honestly believes Donnie Walsh’s hiring of former Nuggets VP Mark Warkentien as a glorified scout for the remainder of this season will help the Knicks in any way, shape or deformity of getting Carmelo Anthony.

For those who do buy into that theory and disbelieve Walsh’s contention (and mine) to the contrary, allow me to remind you the Nuggets control what team ’Melo represents for the next 32 games.

What’s more, ’Melo has made it exceedingly clear (privately) to one and all from the git-go that the Knicks are his first choice. So, should he chose to become a free agent this summer, please don’t insult our common sense by telling us Warkentien — if even still employed by the Knicks — had anything to do with New York signing him.

Neil Miller

Carmelo Anthony

Meanwhile, back on the court, perhaps the Knicks should’ve been fined for not conducting nearly enough illicit workouts.

Not at sea level since the 18th game of the season, the Mike D’Antoni trey-servers are in danger of meshing with mediocrity should they lose today’s High Nooner with the Sixers at the Sexual Harassment Hacienda.

Nine Knicks’ losses in their last dozen outings — including Friday night’s gettable game in Philadelphia — have altogether agitated the ambiance.

It’s almost like the “statement win

 

[blackmagnus514]

I'd rather Chicago.

We come out to play ggainst them but Noah healthy would be a difference maker.

damn whats the deal with these dudes? what happened? Walsh literally put the franchise back to respectability and in a playoff picture and is still trying to make us better. Nah something had to have happened between them. They better work this out

and Peter Vecsey  is an idiot, always has and always will be for years to come. Like seriously what is his purpose of being a NY sports columnist?

 

[harlemtothebronx]

I think it's a good sign that they don't talk. The less Dolan is involved, the better.

 

[ruffrydya08]

Peter Vecsey just an angry old man these days @@$@ him.

I guess it's better Donnie and Dolan don't talk but I mean the man is the head of basketball operations, you'd figure the owner of the squad would check in w/ him from time to time, but @@$@ it's Dolan

 

[maxelite]

and Peter Vecsey  is an idiot

   I agree. 

Also, I just can't understand Jim Dolan's man crush on Isiah Thomas.

Both of these dudes are clowns on another level.

[petermans]

Howard has his eyes on two teams -- the Lakers and Knicks -- as the big-market destinations where he'll chase down his championships and marketing opportunities if things don't work out in the Sunshine State. The Nets, who are supposed to be in Brooklyn by then, also are in the mix, the person said.

[you go boy]

AYO y melo pose like that in the article 

 

[d3si]

I've got to ask you about Landry Fields. You rock his No. 6 jersey at nearly every home game. 

Yeah, that’s my man. Even [Lakers small forward] Ron Artest has mad love for Landry, and he has love for the Knicks. He'd still like to play for the Knicks. [Artest] still can't believe that the Knicks drafted Frédéric Weis instead of him [in the 1999 draft]. Ron is New York, Queensbridge. He's always going to represent New York. 

People are asking me, "Do you have a nickname for Landry?" I’ve got one: Muddy [laughs]. There’s Muddy Waters; now we’ve got Muddy Fields because he doesn't mind getting dirty, doing the little things. Muddy Fields. I asked Landry, "You like that?" He said, "Yeah, whatever you want to do Spike; whatever you say, I’m good with you."

What are your thoughts on Fields' nickname? 

 

[sircharles2ol3]

Lol @ Muddy Fields.
