Yeah he's knee kept giving out last year.

So you pencil Thomas in as the back up 4 and camby as the back up 5... problem is if Chandler or Stat go down can you rely on these old guys to start?


if stat goes down melo starts at 4

but i truly believe NY doesnt belive his knee can be healthy, and lets not forget, jeffries could be S and Ted to a higher # compared to NY's vet min guys


I hear you there... but you now I'm a traditionalist. I like my 2's to be 2's and my 4's to be 4's. :lol: I don't want Melo to play much 4 next year.

Is there any doubt that the no lay-up rule has been re-established in the garden?


Kurt Thomas, Camby, and Tyson.

If Amar'e ever was going to learn defense, physicality, ruggedness, and how to play dirty to protect the paint it is definitely this training camp.

I like this trade! We get Felton back and another big (but KT is like 100 now) and we really only gave up 2 players who wouldn't see much time anyway (but JJ will be missed).

If we match Lin this may be an asset gathering by Grunwald to go after CP3........

Liking the trade so far. If we match Lin then we can call it an offseason.

Well, Kurt Thomas is the oldest active player in the NBA - and one that was missing from Knicks list. So now 3 of top 6 are in NYC.

LOL. The Geria-Knicks


So in the span of a year, we went from being one of the youngest teams in the league to perhaps one of the oldest. wow... :o

Not gonna lie, gonna miss JJ. Great teammate. Ever notice that whenever there was a tussle, JJ's bony ass was the first one in there? And the man could take a charge with the best of them. Heck he was even starting to hit some layups...
