if the knicks dont sign lebron... 

Post#1 » by teamsteven01 » Thu Jul 8, 2010 5:39 am

So if the Knicks don't sign Lebron does this make Amare screwed? I mean, i'm pretty sure when he signed he thought some other star would sign, and everyone is saying lebron is now signing with miami, so i dont know.

Ohhhh welllll he still has 100 million reasons to love New York i suppose.

he will probably average like 32 PPG next year though.

I bet it's the Knicks, Jared Dudley along with Jude Lacava (Phoenix sportscaster) also tweeted all signs point to LBJ joining the Knicks.

Amare agreed to sign with NY because they offered the most money, not because he thought they would win a championship or something

Newsday/ESPN reporting Lebron to Miami.

We seen what happened with Hedo and the Blazers... Amare has the character to do the same to the Knicks.

Hey the Knicks might even end up changing their mind too considering they didn't get two big names!

You guys I'm just hoping... :cry:

Why not talk about this in the thread dedicated to Amar'e? Why do people make new threads every time a thought pops into their head?

Just like Nash's signing 6 years ago with Suns. In heart, Nash wanted to stay with Mavs and Dirk back then. :roll:

For that to be the same Amare would have to, at least, contend for MVP next season.

For the record Nash allowed Cuban to match but instead he turned around and asked for a S+T to which the Suns told him to go jump.

:lol: :lol: N.Y. has been destroying thier roster for the last couple of years to attempt to build thier team this year, to only get Possibly Damaged Goods Amare!!!! is a FAIL!!!! They had better have a contingency plan to fill out the roster cause if they dont they are going to really suck. :lol: :lol: Good Luck Dantoni!!! i hope you guys suck for years to come.... like 5 to be exact!!! :lol: :lol:

Let's try to avoid troll bait; once things begin to become official, RealGM forums will become pretty chaotic so let's avoid these comments so that we can continue to have good discussions with the Knicks fans that come through here.

Thanks!

Well I think everyone can forget the Lebron to NY plan. His agent booked every availiable cabana at the W Hotel on Southbeach for the entire weekend along with Lebron themed ice sculptures, etc.

Hopefully they realize that if he signs with Mia he will no longer be King James, but rather be Prince James because that is Wade County, it's Wades team and he is just another addition to the heat and wade not the main attraction.........if he thinks he is going to take over Mia from Wade......sounds like a lot of tension coming in Miami.........

He's too much of a weasel to care about respect, apparently.

Unfortunately no. Knicks had their eyes on Ridnour, Miller, Randolph/ or keeping Lee as a backup plan to this conclusion. They still have a hell of a coach, along with up and comer Gallinari on top of that. They can still come out ahead if they play their cards right.
