thats nonsense. Dantoni needs a PG.

If they force him to run this team without a PG he deserves an extension for the trouble

We got Tyson to lock it down in the middle. Our frontline is arguably (not really arguably) the baddest mothers around, but we have no PG for the time being.

Strong rumor that the Knicks will give Steph a look in camp to see if he has what it takes to run point and get one try in NYC.

StephOOOOOOON MaaaaaarrrrBURY could be coming back.

I really have no idea what to make of this. On one hand, we just got the guy that single-handedly shut down Miami's penetration in the finals. On the other hand, we now have a massive hole at the most important position in the new NBA. As the adage goes, size over talent in the NBA, but using up all our cap space on a defensive center is a pretty mind boggling move for us.

the money for tyson doesn't matter. once the knicks realized they couldn't get cp3 they made a decision. try to use our 13 mill next summer on a center/pg and lose all our youth. or keep everybody, sign chandler now and still have the smaller mle to add to the team next year. it's a no brainer really.

I love the Chandler signing (I've wanted him on the squad for quite sometime now), but we have no PG now and apparently the Lakers have CP3 coming.

Let's see if CP3 extends with the Lakers with no front court at all and an aging and declining Koke.

Let's face the facts ..... we didn't have the players to trade for Paul. Our other glaring need was center and we did the right thing by getting a legit one. I'm glad CP3 is out west so we don't have to deal with him on an east coast team like TKF said. I love this move. I can't believe Mark Cuban let this happen. I wonder what he has up his sleeve.

Paul last night indicated if it came down to it what the Knicks had to offer after this season wouldn't be enough.

Knicks apparently have decided to amnesty Billups, deal Turiaf for nothing really, and sign Tyson Chandler.

Rumors had flowed that they would try to use Amare to get Paul but the Lakers have apparently acquired him.

Essentially the big 3 dream died last night and the Knicks are reacting.

Lakers may also acquire Howard too.

I still havent heard a solution for people complaining.

Where else were we going to spend this money?

Who else were we going to get to play C?

I agree the money doesn't really matter when it comes down to it. The acquisition isn't a bad one, though using the amnesty sucks. It's just that it leaves us so weak in other areas.

Like I said, I'll reserve judgement until I see who our lazy, bearded, fat f*ck of PG is.

I thought it was because Lebron choked...



The Mavericks had the same exact roster as they did last year and they got bounced out the first round to the Spurs. They add Chandler, they win more games, a title and become a top 10 defensive team.

Chandler got votes for Defensive Player Of The Year but he came in 2nd.

Oh if only Aaron Brooks wouldn't have signed that last minute CBA contract.

PHX would've either trade Nash considering Brooks is coming back.

Or we could've worked something out for Brooks.
