Realistically we all know it should be Kelly and Sacre getting the boot. But it's hard for me to see that happening. There's a difference between what we want to happen and what is going to happen.

In my opinion, I think it'd be better to cut Kelly. Keep Sacre until Upshaw is ready and up to speed then you can cut him or just trade him for nothing in return.

Leave Holmes off the roster, but on DFenders. Leaves him vulnerable to being poached by another team, but if he shows out you can always cut Sacre and keep Holmes.

Jabari has some okay qualities. But there's really no growth for him. Is what he is. End of bench guy.

Is that statement based on the anthony bennett facial? Shot blockers get dunked on, it's a fact of life

I'm the biggest Upshaw fan here.

I'm second.

MWP is hardly a lock to make the final roster going into opening night.

He's played alright so far during the first 3 pre season games and he's in good shape physically.

But if Randle continues playing and improving like he has been. Then MWP's mentoring job with Randle is done and they have big game James Worthy on as a consultant with the coaching staff to keep coaching him during practices.

I'm 100% positive they'll keep Metta around somehow, they're not gonna make the same mistake they made with nash. Worthy is a great coach and I can see his influence on all the bigs but Ron is the perfect OG/big homie for randle

It would absolutely be intelligent to figure it out, keep Ron around.

Which means it won't happen.

[Rockabilly Zombie]

We could all use world peace. I'll see myself out.

I'm not a believer in world peace?

World Peace is overrated.

[willzway26]

Dont like World Peace on the roster.

He was too old and slow the first time they let him go.  He barely got any playing time on the Knicks last year of all teams.

And i'm not a fan of letting former players linger around...how did that work for Steve Nash?

At least Nash was more of a role model, didn't he change his name to something Panda over the summer?

This is a lottery team right now, I'm not trying to rebuild around the tutelage of Ron Artest, I'm just saying.  10 years ago this guy was running into stands beating on fans

This team will be fun to watch tho.  They might not win a lot but they'll be fun to watch play.  They look like they generally like playing with each other.

Yup, but we'll still have people in here ****** and moaning about how much they suck

"Randle's a bust"

"Shoulda picked okafor"

"Russ is slow, gonna bust"

"Byron is awful" (I WILL SAY THIS 100x) 

"Shouldn't have got hibbert"

"Metta playing too much"

Get ready for the ride

What the...who are the 6 that voted we'll go 73-82?

 

[CP1708]

Hibbert is already a made man imo.

Our best defender, and rushed to Randle's defense when he got shoved. That's a leader, teachin kids.

I'll get annoyed with his game here and there, but I know he's doin his job every night.
