    Simple question ... if the Knick's have Houston's Dragic who starts? And if your answer isn't 2 syllables what you are smoking is probably not legal in the state you currently reside.

    Dragic won't do well either when he's constantly being forced to defer to both Stoudemire and Anthony.

    knicks need a new coach. trading melo does nothing.

    amare is still bad defensively. d'antoni is a poor coach. lin won't average 25/8 for entire season, and he still gets blown by with ease by good point guards.

    The Knicks need to give up on D'Antoni and give Mike Woodson a trial run as interim coach for the last 24 games. It's almost too late now and they can't afford to wait any longer. Anyone can see D'Antoni is a bad coach all around and isn't the long term guy to lead the Knicks to the next level.

    If Woody doesn't pan out, find someone else but at least give him a shot and stop spinning your wheels. D'Antoni looked like he had been to a funeral before the game. Pre-game is usually when coaches are most jovial. Put the guy out of his misery (your team too).

    And it could get even better tomorrow. The Cavs are facing the Raptors at home tomorrow and they have one less loss than the knicks, so they might even fall to 10th place! and I wouldn't count the pistons out either. They are playing more consistent and are a slightly better team. I expect them to make a leap next year tbh.

    I think the Bucks will eventually sink like a stone and the Knicks won't finish the last 24 games losing 8/10. They will be the 8th seed.

    You act like he's the only one not able to defend Rose.
    Nobody can defend Rose.

    Besides. Most of the times Rose scored is because Jeremy got stuck in a pick. You have to switch there. Absolutely no communication by the "stars" to any of the other players on the court.

    Check their respective schedules. Bucs schedule is cake compared to the Knicks the rest of the way.

    What do you guys think about a deal for melo? I know it's probably a long shot, but the knicks might be desperate enough. He's already locked under contract, so he can't leave us, and it makes Houston an attractive place for d-will this summer. Melo may be garbage on the knicks, but he did lead the nuggets to the wcf just a few years ago. We should try to grab him while his value is low imo, cause the magic might not trade dwight.

    plus we probably give them back their pick and a few 2nd rounders. I think we could actually pull it off and go after d-will this summer.

    I want the Knicks to lose as much as possible. I would rather have a top 5 pick close call than the Knicks making the playoffs.

    We need to trade some good players to the Bucks and the Nets, ASAP.

    this first the first time.

    jennings: 25 points

    lou williams: 28 points

    tony parker: 32 points

    jason kidd & rodrigue beaubois: 33 points

    rondo: 18/17/20

    part of it is the knicks bigs not rotating and part of it is jeremy getting lost on screens.

    Martin needs a new situation and could provide the knicks with efficient scoring and give better spacing on the court. we also give them dragic who could give valuable minutes at the one or two. and give them some 09ers. we get back melo of course and try to pair him with d-will t his summer and that would definitely be a contender. and also get shumpert who has crazy potential. he's long as crap and plays great d, also gets to the rim at will, great athleticism. this might hinder as at pg for the restof the year, but who really caresat this point? lol

    Lol I recall you saying the Knicks weren't going to lose many more games and thought it was sad that I was cheering for a worthless draft pick. Times sure have changed...

    Jennings: Had 33, 27, 34 points within past six games.
    Williams: Had 21, 26, 25 points within past six games.
    Parker: Had 23, 25, 30 points within past six games.
    Jason Kidd & Rodrigue Beaubois: Not even going to bother with this. You combined two players points.
    Rondo: Top two point guard in the NBA.

    Jeremy isn't a lock down defender, but he's not bad. Keep in mind all of those above are either superstar PGs or veteran offensive-minded PGs.

    Didn't realize Melo and Stoudemire would suck this badly. I was knocking on wood when I joked that Melo and Stoudemire back would destroy team chemistry again. Never realized they actually would.
