Lets say we are able to pick up a player thru a trade or sign and trade.

Forget who and the price.

One has to go for what ever reason.

Which one do you keep?

Gallo (communities choice)
Wilson (Shy Willie)

Tough question, but it does depend on the type of player you get back. If the player you receive back is a 3 pt threat maybe you'd rather give up Gallo. If the incoming is a slasher, maybe you give up Will.

Wilson isn't a winner, Gallinari is.

Aren't winning at the same rate since they are on the same team.

I'm talking about their mental strength. Gallinari is tough in the brain, his mental is geared to win, to be clutch. Wilson, he ain't about nothin. Gallinari is fearless in the face of danger, like when he took on Melo and squashed him. Wilson would never take on a dragon and face him like that.

Isn't Gallo's piss poor play related to trade rumors. Some mental toughness shattered by rumors.

brutal question... I love the two of them together and what they bring. Very versatile and skilled. Will keeps getting better. Some of those dunks are sick, but his post moves are very slick also. Still takes too many 3s but I would like see him get more touches with his back to the basket. Seems to score on that low block every time.

I'm not sure why you hate on Gallinari, but it's obvious you are biased against him. Your opinion of Gallinari is clouded.

Gallinari is that ninja.

Just as your biased against Chandler. Chandler is the Samurai.

Would like to keep both but voted for Gallo who seems to do so many little things and picks up his game in crunch time. He just seems to do more without the splash of Chandler. No knock on Wilson who has improved beyond what i thought he would.

Both or either.

Chandler and Gallo arent the difference between being a contending or an average team.

Dude, your living in a fantasy world. Melo scored more points than Gallo, shot better than 50% and his team also won the game.

YOU'RE BUGGIN'. Knicks won 109-104, Gallinari dropped 28 with a +12 to Melo's -1.

Gallnari is a team player, a winning player, he has the right attitude, he's got the balls to face the dragon, he won't back down in clutch time.

Ill Wilson, while Ill, is a timid little guy that will never have even a quarter of the fire that burns within Gallo everyday of the year.

I'm sorry I have to qualify with for who-
If we're getting a scorer (Melo) then Gallo
If it's for a big man center to complement AimRyay then Wilson.

I like both a lot and I like how they're different. I trade one if it brings back what they offer, but better.
Team has chemistry! Upgrades only, please-
I'm happiest if they both stay and we keep improving into next year.

If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

Nalod's turn, and yeah its a tough question that obviously has many variables.

My thinking is in a free agent scenario or Melo coming and perhaps a sign and trade. Even though we have curry coming off the books we could sign up Wilson (as negotiated by Nuggs) and this way Melo gets his money, Nuggs get a good player, and TMS gets his wish. Maybe its Marc Gasol, maybe its nobody we even thought of yet.

I like both these guys a lot. Wilson seems to be getting better and better but Gallo just has a skill set that is very unusual and I think he morphs into a power forward that can do what the team needs. Rebound: OK! Handle:OK! Defend:OK! Shoot: all day! Get to the line: OK finish on the break: Ok!

Wilson has this package also but not so much with in the team concept. Gallo is a better passer.

Maybe Sean Williams becomes Wilson "lite" with a better 3 stroke and lower salary demand. If Melo is reality then he can slash. Seems Melo and Wilson have similar skill sets. Melo is better. I'll leave the question: "is he 10 million better?" for another forum at a nother time. From a biz standpoint "Shy" Wilson does not sell seats. I like the quiet cool that he is.

I'd be fine with both but its an arguement if you have to move one.

Gallo is WAY too hot and cold. Wilson is like the little train that could. He may have only 1 speed (quiet & stead) but, he's consistent. You rarely see Wilson drop an 8point game.

Gallo is trying to be a good defender but Wilson IS a good defender already and unlike Gallo, he is still a threat even when his outside shot isn't falling.

Gallo will try to rebound when his shot isn't falling but he isn't very good off the dribble or at taking his man to the rack. He was better at this last season but he seems to have regressed in nearly every facet of his game.

Also, will have improved EVERY YEAR. Last guy we had like went on to be an allstar. Not saying thats in the cards of Wilson so, don't kill me for that statement. Just saying you gotta love and respect guys that are committed to working on the games in the offseason.

A big deal was made about Gallo working with Kobe's trainer and his working on other facets of his game. I have yet to see any evidence in this.

Also, people say Gallo is being misused but it is up to him to contribute. He needs to watch how Reggie Miller moved without the ball.

the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

Here is the answer--Chandler is playing a perfect role since they moved to 4-1 I dont think you could do that much better in a team game. Now if Gallo can just get back to what he was doing on the road trip--meaning getting fouled and moving in and out--the answer is none.
