Just spoke to Andy Miller, agent for Chauncey Billups, who describes his client as "irate" over possibility of Knicks using amnesty on him.

Personally think its too much money for Tyson Chandler and that by year 3 he could be a Theo Ratliff esque clone(1 dimensional shot blocker which may not be terrible) but hey he brings defense and doesn't want to shoot the ball so cannot complain TOO Much.

Now if the Knicks get Baron Davis.....lord help us. He's out of shape, a 3 point chucker, decline in court vision and still thinks he is a superstar in the league. Stay far away from him. Don't let his SOTN performance with the Cavs think this guy is somehow good.

lol Wojina trying to stir up trouble for the Knicks.

Why are people so down on Baron, when he is healthy and motivated he is a top 15-20 pg in the league.

Out of 30? And you're asking why we're down?

Because if you have to start with "If healthy" or "when motivated" there is a big problem.

I actually would like Baron except man it's scary to have legit injury concerns about your PG and C...many are worried about Stat as well in that instance. That's a lot to be worried about.

[NoLayupRule]

I never liked B Davis but you have to see what he could do on this team.


But if we add anyone - Arroyo or Sessions or Miller {hopefully} or whomever - we have to get some improved passing from Carmelo and Amare, which they are both capable of

this is random, but why do guys keep referring to TKF? who is this TKF we speak of?!

Source says add Baron Davis' name to the mix at the PG spot...

nolayuprule called it

[ibraheim718]

Tyson can be to us what Noah is to the Bulls.

I also wouldn't be surprised if we get Barea to be the PG.

And by us you mean he'd be our secondary playmaker? Huh.. interesting.

Why did they resign him to that 1 year deal if they are going to use the amnesty on him? Makes no sense.

Either you trade him or keep him.

We have one of the best offenseive coaches in the league, and i'm pretty sure Miami was pretty damn close to winning the chip with a similar situation last year.[/quote]
Our coach NEEDS a PG. Where have you been?

And lack of offensive efficiency is why Miami didn't win it[/quote]

I agree that D'Antoni needs a good, pace setting PG, but we scored plenty of baskets with Duhon running the point and he made Ray Felton look like an All-Star last year.

There are a ton of PG's in the league, and the officiating has made being a PG easier than it's ever been. Even with all the rule changes, no NBA champion has won a chip because of PG play since Isiah's Pistons. One could argue that Billups was instrumental for the Pistons, but I dont think he was more important than either Ben or Rasheed Wallace.

Mavs won because of their frontcourt, so did all those spurs teams. Miami won with a SG and Shaq, The Spurs won chips because of TD, not TP, Shaq and Kobe won without a true pg, so did Jordan's and Hakeem's teams.

I love cp3, he's easily my favorite non knick, but he's less important in the grand scheme of things than we all think.

Point being, D'Antoni can find a "pure pg" a la Felton or Duhon, and turn them into a pretty effective PG. I don't think the answer is shumpert douglas or anthony carter, but there are options out there that will allow us to flourish with the frontcourt we're on the verge of having.

Barea is looking better and better as a BU

We picked up his option. He will be paid regardless.
