The Official NEW YORK KNICKS thread

Wow, have the knicks come full circle in the last year!

Knicks by far have the best front court in the NBA baring none.

Now if the do sign Bibby, which I am against and maybe can land Byron Davis as a PG (which I would think is a stretch) they would have one of deepest teams in the NBA. They can say Isiah Thomas is the real man behind this or whatever, but truth be told, they still have to learn to play with one another as a unit.

Bring on Christmas Day!

I think saying they have one of the deepest teams in the NBA is a bit rich.

Surely a championship contender will try get him.

Chauncey has basically said for NO TEAM to claim him off of waivers or they WILL regret it. He doesn't want anyone else to choose where he is going and wants to make his own choice.

They have 2.5 million left.

Correct, I thought when Novak signed he they would of used it but didnt as they waived Hunter and Green today meaning we now have a spare spot on the roster however it won't be possey and looks like if Knicks get anyone it won't be until march when china leage embargo ends according to latest reports = Martin or Chandler
 
oh for once, I sit here and say, hey, we have a chance. Its going to be a sprint to the end for everyone. No one is dominant. I see 6-7 teams that can win it all this year, it all depends on how they use the bench and how everyone gels. I watched the game this morning and woke the house up at the end. I haven't been that pumped sense watching John Starks hit a 3 back in the 90's when it was for something.

We lost Jefferies and Shrump last night for a few weeks though. SO its time to see some of the others get some valuable burn and get creative. I think the Knicks are as deep as anyone else at this point. They might not all be good, but I am still am not convinced that anyone else has anything better on the bench. When Chandler comes back from China, the Nuggets have the right of matching anything he signs for as he is a restricted FA. You would probably see Kenyon Martin before Chandler I hate to say. And I hate Martin, he has the ugliest tattoos.

I say stop the season now, we are in 1st place! :)
 
Lin has been signed on a limited contract meaning the Knicks can waive him anytime, it's to cover in-case as Mike said, if a PG sneezes they are shot
 
The funny thing is, Lin is the only other natural point guard on the team besides Davis, and he is hurt.

I like his game, scrappy and smart player, like to see him on the team for the year and see about next. Watched a bit of youtube on him and he has a nice way to seeing the floor and can pass out of the pick and roll, something Douglas does not do very well. Bibby is Bibby, still not sure what we will get out of him at this point.

And Bibby and Douglas.
 
Talk has started about Dwight Howard for STAT+ others

I can actually see this has legs since STAT was offered for CP3 from reports so the Knicks don't have concerns trading him, STAT also is from Florida (went to school and has a house there) so again more legs

From a Knicks perspective at 1st I was thinking this would be terrible especially with Chandler however it's clear Melo is the center piece for the NYK and Howard would offer not just a defensive presence but the post to guy as well which Amare doesn't really like and Chandler isn't built for.

If the deal has legs wonder if this means fields and douglas will have to move as well - hopefully Shrump won't be traded.
 
Then you would be trading one out of place star for another. They need to get rid of the coach before either can be anything but a wing man!
