let's get wild

I must admit, you have a talent.

 

[the 718 truth]

Larry Brown wasn't no "yes men," the reason why he got fired was b/c he essentially butted heads with the entire Knicks management team.......Dolan to Isiah to everyone else up top

…and because he was finished…

Herb Williams is what yes men aspire to one day achieve. My guy survived like 6 coaching changes and when he got fired ends up with the Liberty.

Facts are Thibs runs a system of basketball which is what Phil wants

And those Bulls were making the triangle cuts a lot better than we ever have

I hope Phil is willing to consider Thibs although they have no relationship

 

[Air Pope]

It would be awesome going into 2OT w/ the score tied at 65

 

[lver of jordan]

Phil rather hire one of his Lakers butt buddies

One of 'his guys' isn't gonna challenge him if they disagree on something.

Someone like Thibs, JVG, etc. has no problem standing up for themself.

Facts b

I've been reading that Thibbs hs been working on his offensive schemes and working with other coaches so I'm open to the idea long as he knows he can't burn out his starters.

I didn't like Thibs on Chicago really and the burnout thing is a serious issue but, he did do a good job of getting young players to improve—(at the time) Rose, Noah got significantly better under him.  Then Butler more recently.  

But hard-edged coaches seem to struggle in NY.  That worries me.  

Also he got a major media pass in Chicago for falling short of expectations repeatedly after the initial improvement.  That is not going to fly on the Knicks.

Would you guys trade Melo if it could get you the Brooklyn pick?

Not even.

I like Derozon if he can stay healthy.

A point guard is paramount tho.

Nobody saw what it was that I did here?

Would you guys trade Melo if it could get you the Brooklyn pick?

if it's top 3 i'd strongly consider it but there's no chance Melo waives his NTC to go to Boston

I'll be interested to see if and how long Jose starts after the trade deadline passes...I'm optimistic that it won't be long.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Would you guys trade Melo if it could get you the Brooklyn pick?

If it's Simmons yes.

 

[you go boy]

nope i wouldnt even consider trading melo... he could retire a knick for all i care... he needs to get the respect ewing never got and we traded him for no reason when he should of finished his career here...i know ewing got to the finals twice and melo didnt but melo gets my respect for being the first superstar wanting to come here... this franchise was trash for a long time and stat came here just for the money but was only good for that 1 year...

Carmelo Anthony says it's his dream to have a star player next to him on the Knicks: "You realize you just can't do it by yourself."

Is Simmons more PF or SF? Dude reminds me so much of Odom.

PF.

Has very little to any range shooting right now.

Hope Phil brings the man some help before he leaves...
