Woj: Knicks considering adding Kenyon Martin

[Mr_Perfect]

I think Kenyon makes sense if they make a move on Brandon Jennings. Jenninngs is going to cost NY some young talent. Brewer, Copeland, Felton, Wallace.


Felton, Brewer, Wallace, Copeland, and 2013 2nd round pick
for
Brandon Jennings + Ekpe Udoh

I think your post makes no sense.

What does signing K-Mart have to do with Brandon Jennings?

What a puzzling post.

[waya]

The fact that no one has signed him seems like a red flag to me.

Well, he's not really good anymore. He's a 35 year old player who was only good to begin with because he was an athletic freak. I'm sure he can still provide some solid defense and rebounding in short spurts but anyone expecting the old K-Mart should temper expectations. He will just be insurance for Rasheed. In terms of skill level, I don't think he would make a bigger impact than even Kurt.

He seemed pretty productive for LA last season.

You happen to catch any of the playoffs last year? He was a pretty big reason the Clippers did what they did in the first round to Memphis. He was taking Deandre Jordan's minutes because of the way he was defending. I don't want to cut Kurt, but to even PRETEND like Kenyon isn't 5 times the player Kurt is (or at least Kenyon from last year's playoffs), that's just absurd.

Dont forget the Kid/ Martin dynamic as well. Those 2 played their best ball together. Its a no brainer IMHO. Bring in Kmart and cut White if you can get him.

Well yeah, back when they were on the NJ Nets.

It makes sense when you realize falcindor is always on his own planet

[blue and orange]

gotta make it happen, it keeps the Celtics and Heat from signing him, getting a big is an absolute need for the Heat, its a luxury for us. Cut White we gotta keep Kurt hes doing ok in limited minutes, he is a great guy to have on the roster for leadership and changing the culture of the knicks and I want to see him win a ring. Just once I would love to see Tyson, Camby, Sheed, Martin, Thomas on the floor together I know that would never happened but that would be very intimidating.

[melo mvp 15]

While I would love to get Kenyon on this team (I've wanted him for a while, I thought we'd sign him this summer before we got Camby and Sheed)... at this point, idk man. It means less time for Melo at the 4. With Tyson, Amar'e, and Camby all deserving minutes (not to mention Cope and Novak), I really don't see where we need him. And if Sheed does come back soon, he's definitely earned a spot. And while I love KMart's feistiness, I think Kurt's calm demeanor is much more needed in the locker room.

haha I know I know. You know what im saying though. The experience those two have playing together can only benefit us.

If we go through with this, Woody will definitely have a task on his hands with settling on a rotation once everyone's healthy

[falcindor]

Knicks obviously are going to make a move this year. No way they keep JR, Brewer, Shumpert, White, Novak all fighting to stay on the court with Melo. Knicks need to pair down their 2-3 spot. Felton is Felton but we need someone with higher ceiling. Its a great time to make a move because Felton value cant be higher. Brandon is streaky but he brings great speed. Who but Kidd is better to mentor him. Its a special opportunity getting this kid on a rookie salary and being able to sign him with Bird rights. Were talking about the Atlantic Division with Rondo, Wall, Deron, Lowry.

i'm not sure what went on but one day you need to explain what happened to you.

Woj is pretty reliable, and considering the chain of events, not surprised less than a day later this would come out.

I'm always on board for improving the team, see ya later White...sorry about the dunk contest.

He will but its worth taking a chance on, Woody can sit him down and explain to Martin that this is how its going to be you have to be all in and accept any role your asked. Im glad im not the one who has to worry about the rotation. Look at it this way if we sign Kenyon he would be playing half a season, so would Sheed when he returns it puts less wear and tear on their bodies and will be fresher come playoff time. A deeper roster is all the more needed with an older roster.

[kane]

This move has everything to do with not being able to depend on sheed staying healthy and how much the Knicks D has dropped off since he's been gone

[moocow007]

If we cut Kurt, can we just make him as an assistant coach? I'd like to keep him on.

Yes have him teach all the guys on the crazyeyes stare.

Come...buh bye Kurt and White...hello Kenyon and Delonte!
