Being a turnover machine in the playoffs will get us nowhere.

And yes, I like Lin, but come on.

Are you guys telling me, that if we let Lin walk, and get CP3. You'd be pissed about it?


Christ, what are you on?

Aren't you guys tired of these CP3 dreams?

Let's just be happy with what we have.


Its one thing I think you can safely blame on Melo.

A) you're assuming Lin won't get better
B) Where the hell did CP3 come from? Red herring?

More slightly OT but I was thinking yesterday -- how much worse is Bill Walker than JR Smith really?

He's worse. But it's not some huge gap.

Because having Lin on the team is better than not having Lin on the team.

And I'm tired of all the rumors of <INSERT NEXT SUPERSTAR> joining the Knicks. We have the ability to add young talent today instead of waiting on another pipe dream three years from now, assuming we even have the cap flexibility to sign CP3 then. If CP3 becomes a possibility in 2015, we can talk about it then, but we're pretty much stuck with the roster as is for the next two years so why not make it better while we can?

When JR Smith gets hot, you can have around 30 + points

When Bill Walker gets hot...you have sweat covered bench chair.

Well I was basing this off that ESPN article about use using Lins capspace potentially for CP3..

Why settle for the mini MLE when he could just take the minimum. He'd make more off endorsements anyway. 8-)
