Dont know if this has been posted yet. I guess we go after JR?

I actually wanted Kmart, see how playing badly just cost us. At least he didnt go to the Heat.

Thought that would happen- I was in favour of getting him before the season began, but surprisingly our main problem isn't front court depth, but rather bench play at PG, SG and SF. Knicks have made the right decision in targetting JR smith (unless you can come up with any better alternatives!) with the LLE rather than K-Mart.

I want Jorts to get the big man off the bench minutes.

Wow that's a nice athletic front court rotation: Jordan, Evans, Blake, Martin. Couple that w/ their 45 PGs and Caron Butler and this team is poised to do some serious damage come playoff time.

I also like Jorts coming off the bench. He is gonna have a solid career as a role player if he stays healthy.

they are a blake injury away from relative obscurity and an injury for him is inevitable with his recklessness

I want JR Smith anyway.

As long as Jorts can make it back, big men isn't our area of primary concern.

We need guards.

The clips need some depth. Good move for them.

i doubt it. as china's leading scorer (33/7/4/48%3P FG), he has taken his team to a solid record so they are probably headed to their postseason. midmarch is around when that ends.

supposedly his team's season ends on february 15th. then i think they have to wait til the team is eliminated in the playoffs. honestly, not even sure if they will make the playoffs...

i think kmart was allowed to leave early because he'd been bought out of his contract earlier, i think that's part of why FIBA granted him access to play in the NBA.

I don't think this is a big loss for the Knicks. Kidd made Martin look better than he was in his prime, and he is no longer close to his prime (check his stats, even his FT% has gone down).

kmart is solid backup PF at this point in his career. Brings energy and toughness off the bench and can fill in when your starting PF misses time. I don't think he will play much in LA because they have Jordan, Blake and Evans but he likes billups and LA is a winning team. At this point in his career he just wants to win a ring

in their right mind would want to come here?
Well....KMart says "NO" and JR Smith will pass, also.

I don't think KMart has much left and I agree with Martin about Jorts. KMart has had microfracture surgery on both knees, and was let out of his contract in China because he was, "struggling to contribute". I also think saving that exception was the smart move. The Knicks have depth at power forward.

Dolan prefers his PFs to be aging and have had at least one microfracture surgery actually.

You throw enough **** on a wall...

Even the Knicks will eventually get something to stick.
