Will that finally expose Phil that his system is flawed in today's game? All poignant but legitimate questions.
The part in bold. May I ask on what body of evidence that you base this conclusion? Is it due to the results Kurt Rambis had running it on a horrid Timberwolves team, or our results with the group of scrubs and injuries we had last year.
Usually when something finally happens, its because it something someone has been waiting for? Why would anyone who wants to see the team succeed be waiting for confirmation that the system we are running is a failure?

Nah, he will ask out after he gets injured this season and rehabilitated.......while his value will be lowest!

Gotcha,
Im sure you can agree that's not a fair body of work to go by. Your system is only as good as the players running it.

So based on the signings that was done in the off-season, do you see the Knicks having a better season with a better system because of the players we signed?

Re: Clyde on Melo: "Will he ask out?"
Not sure why Clyde would feed into this. We can't even get through the summer without **** like this being entertained. If he asks to be traded...then we can discuss it. It is not happening this year.
Winning in NY would make him a legend. Maybe later in his career he might go chase a title. He has an opt out after year 4. If things don't look good by then...he can bolt.
People need to stop feeding into this talk without any reason to bring it up. Melo has not said a word about any of this. Let it happen people!

Re: Clyde on Melo: "Will he ask out?"
I don't see Melo in Washington at all....
I see the Heat, Clippers, Lakers (maybe), Bulls and that would probably be about it I would think.

Just to elaborate a bit...
If we stay healthy im comfortable to say we will surpass 17 wins. In all fairness that's not a high bar to pass.
I just see no reason to debate whether Phil or the Triangle are now obsolete based on anything that has happened. The only thing fueling this train of thought are the NY Media and NY Haters IMO.
Dont let agendas and slander have any part in formulating your opinion. Let the body of work do the talking.

What would you say to this?

As a possible trade. Rio and Deng are expirings.

So the point is simply to remove his salary?
Winslow and McRoberts (for 2 more years) is your return?

Well damn, I'm just bored guys relax. As far as the trade no way we offer more than that. If its any consolation a lot of guys on the Heat board felt that even that was too much to give up on the Heats end so yeah…
