F*ck Bargs. Seriously.

Raps suck forever. Knicks win 50+ games. Knicks trade for this douche. Knicks are a laughing stock. Raps consistently win the division.

There it is. I'd rather have Isiah Thomas back, and f*ck that guy too

If he keeps up this level of play for the remaining 20 games he would definitely be in consideration for coming back. The triangle suits his game and maximizes his strength. As a 6th or 7th man off the bench he would be essential to a winning team as he can come in and score 10-12 ppg in 20-25 minutes.

I would definitely consider him at a 3 year 15 million deal with 3rd year being player option. At that price he would be great value...

Thoughts ?

When thinking about re-signing Andrea Bargnani, note that you are only likely to see him in Godnani mode for a third of a season. The remaining two-thirds he would either be injured or… how will I put this politely… be ‘not good’.

Yeah I have some thoughts

1} he was injured and useless most of last year and all of this year until we traded away everyone on the team and he was given an opportunity to showcase for a new contract with zero pressure or competition for shots

2} he's never once in his career played up to a lottery pick level or to his salary level. Not once. Not to mention the 1st overall.

3} He's got no heart, soul or balls

4} F him

If he's willing to take the vet minimum and the Nets aren't willing to match it, sure.

When healthy he's good in this structured offense that maximizes his strengths. Only problem is, he's never healthy.

I had a dude named "nolayup rule" say this was a "dumb opinion" but it still is the best idea for the "KNICKS" in free agency by a wide mile. Again my free agent "core four"

G---Rodney Stuckey--I can say his name 10 times over the next month--hes going to be a top 3 value.

G-- Mo Williams--we need a pro PG

F_Demarre Carroll F--we need a 3-4 who can shoot 3's play defense and team ball

C Alexis Anjica--C--we need a C who can also score

Besart19 · Post #1851 » by **Besart19** » Wed Mar 11, 2015 2:33 am

One of the few good things about Woody:

Melo at 4 and two PG... even in triangle!! And add at least 3-4 proven vets and winners even if they dont/wont/cant play

Wade would be great pick-up if he somehow decides to opt-out and leave Miami (although he's a Chicago native and he might want toe end up there to finish his career)

Towns // Melo // Green // Wade // Gallo

Three guys who can post up in Melo, Wade and Towns... PS: any Green available

I read your posts as satire

then I saw that in your sig that, "vanilla ice is the best rap artist of all time" and realized you're a great judge of talent...."ice ice baby" and "go ninja go ninja go" are two of the most influential songs of all time

So these must be taken as fact!!! Some one wake up phil!!!!

And for the record I actually like carroll, though

Dude is playing for big money. The only thing that's different about him this year is his three point shooting. That's a big red flag to me. He is shooting 40% from 3 this year and before that he has never shot over 32% from 3 in a season.

I dont recall

I want both of those guys on the Knicks next year for reasonable contracts

Ive always felt Stucky was a good player and we need his quick offense
I like Carroll

Not sure what you are referring to

Besart19 · Post #1859 » by **Besart19** » Wed Mar 11, 2015 11:01 pm

Gasol 20M
Melo 22M
Durant 26M
Green 8M
Russell 4M

80M in total in 2016... 54M in 2015

Alternatives: Towns/Melo/Durant/Butler/Dragic

Okafor/Melo/Lebron/Knight/Conley

or Noah/LMA/Melo/Matthews/Mudiay

Role players (6th man) who would fit well in /_\ Batum (2016), Carrol (2015), Iggy (in 2017) [Odom, MWP, Ariza]

=> attracting a top tier FA and picking up the best pick possible will be huge for our 2016 (and 2017) campaign...

#TheYearOfTruth

PS: Curry, Davis, Westbrook, Lillard, Conley amongst te top FA in 2017

i would like to see al jefferson come over. i know many people dog him, but with the right personnel, he does well. hell, he was a top 10 post defender last year. when he's not expected to do EVERYTHING on offense because there are no other offensive pieces, and can focus on both sides, he is a 2 way player (not elite, but he does play both sides).

i have he (and demarcus cousins) on my fantasy team, so i follow both teams on league pass. i've been watching him a lot, and the dude does very well in a system (like how the triangle is a systematic type of offense). i have seen him, as one of their plays, go and set 5 straight picks for teammates WITHOUT expecting the ball at any point - not half-assed picks either. that, to me, is a guy for the team. he may not be the perfect fit, but he seems to be a guy who does well when a system is in play, and is willing to work in a system.

plus, the hornets have taken a major step back, and have already been looking to unload stephenson (although, they didn't end up doing so). i don't think jefferson is a FA, but, (without giving up the top 3 pick), i'd love to have this guy over here.
