2015 NY Knicks offseason thread, Los Almighty appreciation thread

[slime rawstein]

If we don't get proffesor oak…jordan is a must imo. I def don't want Hibbert after that block on Melo. Wesley Matthews is also a must.

eddy curry wouldve been an all star if he had a heart.

I think I see what you did there.

Stop it guys. We're going to end up with the 7th pick or some ****. Knicks luck.

& about Phil, it's his FIRST full year. I remember seeing someone say "the biggest problem w/ the Knicks are their fans" & sometimes I believe it. No patience. Ppl yell fire the minute they see a box of matches. We haven't given anyone a chance to grow within the organization & establish a SYSTEM. A big reason why the Larry Brown firing back then really irked me.

I agree, we sucked for a good amount of years and somehow we still demanding. Out of all my years of being a Knicks fan, (been a fan since 9. I'm 31) this is the first time I ever seen an actual rebuilding phase within the organization. We always cover a bandaid with a bandaid and then we end up getting ****** for it. We as fans gotta learn how to be patient, and everything will take its course. All these moves will make us better for the long run. But first, we gotta find a way to get rid of melo.

Chris Herring going around the country to watch the top draft prospects in person & do a writeup on each of them.

this is why he's the best at his job

He's a good writer too, I think he relies on advanced stats too much to prove his point. Nonetheless, he's a good journalist.

These clowns are always in panic mode thats why everyone fails in new york....now we have a guy that has 11 rings running the show and they still want to be pessimist. ELEVEN rings ....ELEVEN.....and these guys still dont believe.

From what I reading in the Daily News, the Knicks ****** up with Melo's management. I kind of ranted on Twitter about it yesterday. This doctor says Melo could be out 6-8 months.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

i dont trust the daily news for anything.

 

[pr0phecy718]

Ok he'll be back by the start of the regular season

yes I know training camp is important but ehh, what can you do

 

[7thave btn 31stn33rd st]

I'm familiar with the Doc, he's probably one of the best Sports Medicine Docs in the city. I'm sure Dr. Answorth Allen is doing Melo's surgery, I've treated many of his patients. He has a quick trigger to do surgery. Melo's condition doesnt require surgery.

when have the Knicks ever correctly managed an injury?

Sheed had a "sore left foot" for 3 months in 2012

 

[8pm at msg]

As long as Melo comes back with his leg still attached I don't care.

@Chris_Broussard: Knicks package for Dragic includes Tim Hardaway Jr. and Jose Calderon

welp

 

[Hahahaha]

I'm cool with that. I want to get rid of both players. And no first rounder? I hope this happens. Wish we could throw in Bargs also.

Hate to see Timmy go but it's time to start the rebuilding and I'm cool with this also as long as no draft picks are being traded away 

 

[ballinsam23]

Throw in Larkin instead of a first just to get this thing done. Unless they include Miles, then i don't care about the 1st rounder.

 

[you go boy]

i like the trade because you get dragic and get rid of jose but still cant give up on cheap homegrown talent like thjr

 

[ny mavurs]

Throw in Larkin and get back Ennis too

But I doubt that happens

 

[ballinsam23]

Completely forgot about Ennis

Fully prepared for nothing to happen. We need to move Caldo though.

 

[sonoftony]

THJR is still young though. we ALWAYS give up on our young guys. I hope we find a way to keep THJR and get rid of Bargs and Jose.

 

[GaBeGRaMz]

If that trade happens, i just hope we aren't maxing Dragic.

He's a great talent and I would love him as the PG for this team but I don't think he's a max player.

Tim Hardaway Jr. hit the Sophomore slump hard. Although it's easy to have a bad season in a bad situation like this. I like his athleticism and the fact that he can shoot, but I don't think he'll become a much better player then he was at his best last year. I haven't seen him use much of any athleticism this year either. Too soon for a player to clock out in his young career. Not a great attitude IMO.

 

[ballinsam23]

Phil is gonna have to use one of those trade exceptions if he wants Miles in there too right?

On the topic of who I'd overpay for.....Wes, Butler, or Draymond.

 

[Hahahaha]

I don't want to max him but most likely they will if he's coming here


I want Timmy gone. I want Jose gone. I like Larkin, haven't seen enough to decide if he should stay or not.


Just don't want to trade a first rounder.

 

[ballinsam23]

Zero chance he gets the max.

DRose, CP3, Westbrook, Wall are the only full max players. He's not on that level.

 

[you go boy]

dragic is worth 10mil a year at most

 

[don ramon]

dragic is worth 10mil a year at most

highly disagree with this. $20 million might be too much, but he's easily a $14-16/yr million player
