Knicks emerge as front runners for Jamal Crawford?

Post #1581 » by **K_ick_God** » Tue Dec 13, 2011 10:47 pm

Jamal is coming home either way.

Or he's going to the tundra in Minneapolis.

I think its either going to be Portland or NY. I think Crawford loves NY, recognizes that he's played with Bibby and been coached by Woodson, and lets not forget he probably would love the fact of playing with Amare/Melo.

I'm saying: 60% Portland, 40% New York at this point.

They're not OK if we want to be legitimate title contenders.

please Jamal Crawford doesn't solely make us TITLE CONTENDERS.....PUHLEASE!

Maybe a vet PG like Steve Nash could make that say that if you didn't think it before

But seriously u don't think we are title contenders and if we get jamal we are? thats funny

Gotta wonder how he feels about in essence, replacing one of his best friends in B.Roy.
Can it hurt or help?

Some these teams don't know how to run a team why would portland be interested him they wesely mattfews, ellit willams, and batum. The kings already signed thorton to 4 years 32 million dollar contract they also have fransico garcia who makes lot and salmons. The only team that make sense is the pacers but he turned them down so it has to be us.

Wrong! Look at Dallas for example. Our pgs are fine.

I never said that Jamal does. He takes us closer though (as a sixth man) -- however, IMO we are not going to be legit until we get a real point guard.

Lol bad choice my friend...Dallas had Kidd running point. He's 100x better than anything we currently have at point guard. Even Barea is better than anything we have. Pick again!

We need a legitimate point guard -- Nash, Davis, whoever.

JC isn't coming here to be a sixth man, he'd start.

Turning down Indy means he must be about to make a decision. Because Portland can only offer $5M too. So it's either Portland for more money or NY for less. Doesn't Minny not have room?

I would take our team vs any team right now...add big purp and we are set to go.

If our young guys improve (TD, Fields, SHumpert) we as good as a shot as anyone!

If the Blazers have the MLE I believe they could top Indy by offering more years.

Jamal Crawford wants big bucks.

Yes, Minny still has room. I don't know that they would bid though. They need size pretty badly. Though with Kahn who knows. I would not be surprised if Kahn places an offer on Baron Davis AND Mo Williams (if he's amnestied) at all.

Guys just sit back and look at the whole picture! Take a quick tour around his twitter. He coming to NY! All of the signs point to it.

That's a pipe dream on his part. I think this Indy offer is or is at least very close to as much as he's going to get.

Portland already gave wesly mattefews big money last year 5 years 35 million and going give batum contract extension. They already resigned oden one year 8 million dollars and signed kurt thomas 2 year deal.

I would take our 3/4/5 against anyone...our backcourt...not so much (and I'm as big a Shumpert/Fields/even Toney fan as anyone). We need a legit point guard before I would consider ourselves title contenders.
