Imagine the pain of having Novak, Balkman, Jefferies, Jordan, Douglas as your second unit Outside of Melo, Amare & Tyson the only other person on the team that is interesting is Shumpert. 3 players earn $10 million plus, 3 players earn just over $1 million ( one of them is Balkman) The rest are all under a million dollars. Jeremy Lin is their best point guard, until we see what Baron Davis has left. The coach is running a Steve Nash offence without a Steve Nash. With the 6th pick in the Draft...Houston selects with The New York pick....
You do realize that 7 - 12 means 7 wins and 12 losses right? Not 7 losses and 12 wins. Once you figure that part out you will know how silly your quote is.
Grandpa Kidd and Delonte West for Dallas? Jest throwing something out there but those two are pretty pethetic right now.
Is there worse management than the Knicks, anywhere in the league, when you consider everything a New York team has going for it? I have to wonder. Memphis has a decent team, at least when they're all healthy. The Clippers used to be at the top of management/ownership stupidity, but with the help of Stern, they seem on their way up. Who's worse than the Knicks?
I just think its hilarious that Isiah Thomas was fired for screwing up the Knicks. And then that idiot owner thought he'd let him back in the fold to acquire a "superstar" and he managed to screw the Knicks a second time. From last Feb 10th: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-thomasknicks022011 [rquoter] LOS ANGELES – The thin veil of secrecy has torn away now, the pretenses gone and Isiah Thomas has left the shadows and moved into the light again. Once more, he is the New York Knicks’ top basketball executive. Thomas is driving everything through owner James Dolan – the trade for Carmelo Anthony(notes), the departure of Donnie Walsh and perhaps even the eventual hiring of the New York Knicks’ next president and general manager, multiple league sources told Yahoo! Sports. “Isiah is calling the shots for New York,” said one front-office executive with knowledge of the Anthony trade talks. “It’s a disgrace. Donnie should walk.” Thomas wouldn’t blink. After all, that’s his plan: He wants Walsh to leave out of sheer frustration because of Thomas’ meddling, or because Dolan doesn’t pick up the option on his contract in April. For a franchise with a history of inexplicable dysfunction, even this is an episode for the Madison Square Garden time capsule. Dolan has overruled Walsh in these trade talks and undermined his authority. Walsh has never wanted to give away Raymond Felton(notes) for an aging Chauncey Billups(notes) and throw Danilo Gallinari(notes) into the package, too. This is all Isiah, all his influence. Thomas doesn’t believe Dolan is inclined to give him his job back, but it almost doesn’t matter anymore. In a moment of truth for this Knicks franchise, in the biggest trade they’ve tried to make in years, Isiah Thomas, the coach of Florida International University, has emerged as the de facto GM. Eventually, Anthony will likely end up with the Knicks, and Thomas plans to take full credit with Dolan for delivering him. He’s worn out Dolan with the idea that Walsh is too old to recruit the biggest stars to New York, that he can’t connect with them. This is complete nonsense. What sells New York isn’t the GM, but cap space, the Garden and a magnificent teammate and leader like Amar’e Stoudemire(notes). Thomas is forever selling revisionist history and out-and-out lies to an audience of one: Dolan. ... [/rquoter]
i honestly cant wait till amare and melo come back and take the ball away from lin. our draft pick will gain value again.
