My take on the Ellis situation...

Curry is Nellie's guy...it took me a while to get there but I'm convinced it's him...helps the team right away and a combination of Curry / Morrow could be lethal with Ellis and Maggette slashing to the rim...plan B is Hill...Plan C???

Curry would be a nightmare.

I'm still holding out hope that they'll come to their senses and look to move the pick in a Crawford or Maggette package...

If they retain Monta, there's absolutely no need for Curry. Especially given the likely increase in minutes for Morrow who is probably just as pure a scorer as Curry could be at the NBA level.

retaining Monta should have no bearing on who we pick...

It should if the draftee is another combo guard who can't defend a piece of furniture...

I'm OK with Curry if Nellie really likes him and if we're going to clear Monta out of here after rehabbing his value... they obviously can't and shouldn't co-exist.

However, I have to think somewhere in Nellie's mind he's thinking of Jrue... for this whole scenario of mine to work out, you'd have to get someone who wouldn't be a complete disaster next to Monta this season...

I definitely think its between Curry and Holiday for us right now at 7...

I think Nellie wants Evans...

You're giving TK too much credit - sources? he don't need no steenking sources. He has plenty of "sources" whispering in his ear at all times... you and I just can't see them.

Khoee · Post #148 » by **Khoee** » Wed Jun 17, 2009 9:41 pm

Curry, Hill, Jennings, and T.Will in that order...

It's going to be somebody who Nellie thinks can help us this year

Welcome Stephan Curry...Huge upgrade at the backup PG spot.

unless OKC, Minn, or a team that trades up takes him...than it's welcome Jordan Hill...he and Brandan can take naps together...

Why? What happened to your Curry pick of 10 minutes ago?

Nobody wants Jordan Hill, he is only being pimped by NY now because Walsh wants teams to trade ahead of them to take Hill. Same reason why we hyped him.

The Bucks are the only top 10 lotto team that I could see really being intrigued by Jordan.

The boldede part killed me.

One things for sure Nellie and TK are not in on anything together. They don't like each other at all based on TK calling him out all last year. When Nellie makes fun of your name, then you're definitely in his dog house. No conspieracy there.

Nellie/Puppet have both stated that they're looking for a guy who can do 2 of these 3 things at least:

Pass/Rebound/ Defend

From the PG spot that sounds like: Rubio (pass/defend), Holiday (pass/Rebound/defend), Evans (pass/ rebound/ defend) Curry doesn't fit that criteria. He's (pass/ shoot/ score)

Thats why I tend to think its Holiday, or at least tend to hope so... I dont think its Evans, since he's not really a PG and never will be... remember that the Knicks were supposedly very interested in Jrue Holiday as well, probably because of Nate Robinson...

Ultimately my gut thinks its Curry as well... definitely not the Jennings/Lawson/Flynn scrubs though...

Khoee · Post #156 » by **Khoee** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 3:34 am

you're letting your emotions get in the way...Nellie has no interest in Jrue...Curry's his guy...

darobster17 · Post #157 » by **darobster17** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 4:02 am

New York is pimping Hill so other teams go after him...Curry is the player that the Knicks want...After the Knicks took Galinari...the Knicks really need to get a player Lebron,Donnie Walsh and the fans want...

I hope that W's screw them up by taking Curry forcing them to make a deal with the W's...

Khoee · Post #158 » by **Khoee** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 4:16 am

Curry seems to be soaring up the charts...a lot of teams are trying to move up to take him...

What's your draft board look like?

Are you guys certain to go for a PG?
Do you like Hill?

Thanks.

Khoee · Post #160 » by **Khoee** » Thu Jun 18, 2009 7:17 pm

Here's Nellie's big board at #7:

1. Curry
2. Hill
3. Jennings
4. T.Will

I hope we're talking to Chi about a swap that sends $$ and the #7 for the #16 and #26...
