Nah. Knicks gave up A LOT in this deal. Their bench is downright horrid.

Why? The knicks traded away everything they got outside of Amar'e .. Our shooters > their non-existing depth & Defense (even compared to ours)

EDIT: sorry cb, didn't see your post, both pointed out the same thing

Untill Free Agents sign with them for pennies to win rings. The Knicks move ahead of Orlando with this move after this season.

Not yet, we need to do whatever it takes to pair CP3 or Deron with Dwight.

How will we be better next year? We have no money and no 1st round pick. An expiring JRich and Earl Clark. Turk will be another yr older. Arenas blows. I'm not even a negative poster, I'm just being realistic. We are in a terrible position. Unless Otis can somehow pull off a miracle and land Deron or CP3 I don't see a silver lining to everyone pulling ahead of us.

Curious to see how Boston plans on snagging Battier from Houston.

I've read that earlier and for some reason I feel that SVG said that before earlier this year and that's when Otis made that big trade. I can't be certain though.

J-Rich needs to kick rocks.....Too inconsistent and virtually brings nothing to the table that Redick can't emulate

We all knew when we signed Lewis we would be in trouble in about 3 years. We have since turned that into an even worse situation. We are in a tough situation with a lot of untradeable contracts. I am worried anout our future. I think are window may have closed already. Otis is literally going to have to work some Magic. Pun intended

otis has no tricks up his sleeve before the deadline.

our defense, back up center, and shooting guard situation is pretty ****.
