Too snarky to be Mars. I'd suspect myself if I didn't know better. Maybe Mr. Perfect or Rasho?

Fish needs to concentrate on getting these groups out there more.

hardaway, Jason Smith, and Amare together....lord help us all and no it hasn't.

Our best +/- unit has been Larkin-Hardaway-Shumpert-Anthony-Dalembert

and none of these rotations have played enough for any of these stats to matter. but to my eye, we're better with daly at center because we might actually stop someone at the rim.

Best strategy at this point is to tank.

Send Phil an email. Perhaps a letter. Convincing people here does nothing. I'm sure you realize that though.

And willingly accepting loses doesn't do anything either. So we get a great pick but the loosing mentality remains. Loses don't feel that bad anymore. And winning culture dies.

If you notice...most tanking teams don't do it with a star in his prime on the team. Its a bunch of young guys with potential and lots to learn about the NBA and winning at this level.

If we end up getting a great pick - for me that will just be a consolation prize - not a goal. Besides that pick will need time to develop. He won't be here to help Melo. He'll be learning to take over one Melo is gone. So has this board - those tank dreaming - given up on the Melo era and are already looking 4 years down the road? I'm still hoping for trades on DEC 15, at the deadline, and FA signings during the off season to set us up for a run next year.

+1,000,000!!!!

WE ARE NOT A TANKING TEAM, PERIOD. Tanking teams do not have a top 10 player in the league IN HIS PRIME. The concept of tanking with Melo on the roster in his prime is just laughable. The Knicks situation is so much different than that of Philly, Utah, Minnesota, Milwaukee, etc. We are not developing a star young player this season. We barely even have any young guys on the roster. To the extent Phil can make in-season trades to improve the team (while not hurting us long-term), he should absolutely do it. Fisher needs to establish a winning culture among the players that will be here in 2015 and beyond. He needs to establish his system. He needs to make himself and the team look like attractive options for free agents in 2015. If we end up with a lottery pick because the team just wasn't good enough to qualify for the playoffs, so be it, it's a consolation. Nobody should be rooting for that though. A 19 year old kid does not help a 2015 win-now Knicks roster with Melo as the centerpiece. You'd be a fool to think it would. Look at how quickly Lebron shipped out Wiggins from his win-now team and ANY FAN IS LYING TO THEMSELVES if they think this season will result in the Knicks getting a draft prospect better than Wiggins. So fans need to just stop the tank nonsense, the tank talk, it's embarrassing quite frankly.
