Lets trade Marbury and get some players in here that Larry Brown wants instead of using players he cant get through too since their games as the exact opposite of what Larry Brown preaches.

If the knicks are rebuilding then I will tolerate the ignominious losses, if I think there is hope in sight, with our pick going to chicago there isnt a heck of alot of hope, but we should just site and whatch guys develop, IF we are rebuilding that is.

I wonder if the Knicks are really rebuilding should we stick with larry? Would he seek to trade all of our youth for vets, that can learn his system more quickly?

THIS CAN'T BE CALLED REBUILDING IF YOUR PAYROLL ROSTER IS 125MM... REBUILDING INVOLVES A TEAM WITH A PAYROLL UNDER 70MM..

ISAIH SAYS "REBUILDING" AS AN EXCUSE.. HE NEEDS TO GO..

I think Frye has picked up his system quickly, the same goes for Curry. Ariza isn't a fundamental player, neither is Crawford, neither is Marbury, neither is the whole roster. I'd be willing to sacrifice everyone on this team aside from Frye and Curry to get players in here that Larry Brown can coach, instead of yell at.

What? Since when does it matter what your payroll is, I've never seen that guideline in rebuilding situations.

Good question but I don't think a set payroll is part of it.

It's certainly one way to go but so is having 9 players under the age of 25 on your roster, no?

Thats certainly true. I just dont know what your arguing. Are you arguing the fact that cutting payroll has to be part of rebuilding or arguing that the Knicks rebuilt stupidly with the Under-25 players that they have... or maybe its both?

not arguing anything. most rebuilding teams choose cutting payroll as apart of it.

I'm actually just curious to see the % of teams that go through rebuilding, actually end up winning championships within 5 years of their rebuilding project.

the knicks need to pull off trades to acquire players that will fit browns system, even if it means trading talented young players that dont.
