Just wait until Melo & Amare start taking a combined 40 shots a game

while eating up 90% of the salary cap

and the Knicks are still mediocre.

Then what?

A new set of b*tching threads.

But at least they will be based in reality, and not in the belief that Anthony Randolph could save our team.

If the Trade is what it is right now goes down

I'd do Felton for Nash in a Minute, I'm the Biggest Gallo Fan their is but I'd ship him too to make it happen. 1st I'd tell them Fields and we get back Hill and than use Danilo as a chip to get Nash here

1. Hire Lawrence Frank
2. Play Mozgov and Turiaf all the minutes at center
3. Put Amar'e and Melo on opposite sides at all times
4. Make sure one of Melo OR Amar'e is in the game for at least 42-45 minutes a night

That'll be good for 50 wins easy. And then if it clicks, you should be able to compete with the cHeat to some degree. Probably better than the Bulls IF you play defense and get some decent play from Felton.

I think that is exactly why denver is starting to like chandler. Chandler is the best option denver can get in replacing Carmelo's production. They have somewhat similar styles.

Im not comparing the 2 but he is a young option to keep there playoff hopes still alive

No they won't. The reality is investing 90% of your salary in two ball stopping, non defending 6'9"ish players who love the mid range jumper is a horrible, horrible idea

and most definitely in a hard cap world.

PS: We will be in a hard cap world before 2011 is done.

KG, place odds on there being a deal by Wednesday or Thursday.

There is absolutely 0% chance.

Broussard is an idiot...remember???




I think this is going to the trade deadline. So I would personally say less than 20% chance this is done in a week. Only thing that could push Denver is if Minnesota (or the Knicks) really puts a hard deadline on them of "Do this deal next week or never" and they do feel the urgency to get something for Melo. We don't know when the Nuggets will start to panic and say 'We better pull the trigger.'

The Nets thing *may* have been a complete fake deal. So it may not be fair to judge that deal as a barometer of what will happen with the Knicks.

Still, I do not think it is at all likely that a deal gets done next week. But Broussard is not saying that either. He's saying 'the earliest it could get done is middle of next week.' Different things.

Broussard has poor knowledge of the game and he seemed to be very anti-Knicks getting lebron last summer. But I don't think his sources are non-existent or that he's making stuff up completely. There is I'm sure some credibility to this story. How much, who knows.


One of my friends saw him at the Garden and confronted him on his anti-Knicks bias and the bs he was spewing over the summer. He said he promised he was NOT anti-knicks, and everything he reported was because his "bosses" told him to (aka executives who wanted ratings for LBJ decision). Take it for what it's worth.

Ok, I seriously don't know what to say about this.

Chandler, curry, Randolph and whatever kinds of picks and money are involved for Carmelo is beyond fantastic. It's better than best case scenario. It's perfect.

It's hard to believe this could happen. If it does it's perhaps one of the best days in NY in a decade. Not to overstate or anything

Maybe after you do that, you'll see that you and I actually agree about Anthony Randolph too.

While some of you folks ponder if this is legit....


How good are we if this deal goes down as described?

We would be LOADED seriously STACKED!


Would we be on par with the HAWKS?


THE BULLS?


The MAGIC?

BRo, You'd possibly be getting Melo for a guy that doesn't play and a guy who is going to be a RFA and disappears and has never played in one playoff game for a guy who carried syracuse to a championship and the nugs to the playoffs (and a WCF) year in and year out and who LOVES THE BULLY GAME more than the midrange jumpshot.

I'm no Melo fanboy, but if we are able to get him at this price, you do it and don't look back. Sort everything else out later.

No they aren't

Curry/Chandler/AR=Melo money then possible drop in attendance and who knows where they'd stand by season's end for playoffs. They could get knocked out. Now if they start free falling the next 2 weeks I could possibly see things changing. They can make a similar trade in the summer by flipping Chandler if he's in this trade a team of his choice and getting assets. You could say Chandler could raise his value(S&T suitors, not so much money) post deadline assuming solid playoff run

Uh.... it just hit me. As soon as the Knicks hire Warkentien (sp?) Walsh goes to Minny with the money saving deal.....

Warkentien knows Kroenke ... he must have told Walsh what would get the old man involved and how to rock his world. These rich SO B's are so freakin greedy.... in the end it's not about BB for Kroenke....

it's about saving $$$$$. Eddie Curry the grease that fleeces the Nugget. And we all thought his Big Mac addiction was a negative thing.....

:lol: :lol: :lol:
