when did 6th in the west become elite by the way ?

There are about 6 elite teams in the West.

It's sad how the only player that the Knicks drafted in the past 20 + years who was in their long term plans has been Iman Shumpert.

Knicks94 is one of those clingy fans that overrates every decent past Knick player just because they didnt turn out to be Michael Sweetney or Lavor Postell. He also seriously believes Lin will average 20/10 someday. Just pat him on the head and whistle down the street.

I don't overrate every former Knick player that showed flashes of decency in past. I still think that Landry Fields and Toney Douglas are bums, Nate Robinson is a clown and Trevor Ariza and Channing Frye were draft mistakes.

When I say clearly I do not mean may be better. I mean without a doubt clearly better. I will start you off. Kevin Durant. That is 1. You only need to name 4 more.

Why limit it just to the western conference? Just because the West is weak at SF doesn't give Gallo any form of props..

He isn't top 10 in the league currently.....

LeBron, KD, Melo, Deng, Paul George, Nic Batum, Gay, Pierce, Evan Turner, Kawhi Leonard are my 10.

And that's not including guys like Granger who is injured, Parsons, MKG and Barnes who are rooks. and sure to pass him over in about 2 seasons.

Gallo is a good player, nothing special, definitely not worthy to be called top of anything.

Can't think for yourself, Rasho? I thought you were better than that.

So you're saying Gallinari has the same impact on a team as Chandler? Please tell me you're joking.

Marv Albert said the Westbrook outburst was about something to do with Durant. I want to know what it was that set Westbrook off lol

Maybe Durant finally grew a pair and told Russy to stop shooting so damn much.

Gallinari gives his team offensively what Chandler gives to his team defensively . You really can't compare a player who is better on defense to a player that is better on offense.

It's now reported as being with Thabo and Durant tried to intervene.

1) Chandler is better at what he does than what Gallinari does. The man is the reigning DPOY.
2) Chandler would provide much more of an impact for this team because of how bad of defenders Amar'e and Melo are (though they have improved)
