Those numbers are about right for Hickson.

nice pick up. It seems like teams don't want Hickson for some reason. Maybe it's defense. I was thinking that Houston would try to make a run at him but I guess not.

maybe, but lets ask this?

why couldn't we get carmelo for what he is really worth? is he worth 20 mil? NO

why couldn't we sign amare for his true worth?

why couldn't we sign tyson chandler for his true worth?

Novak?

Camby?

It always seems like we overpay for everyone..

when you look at it, hickson is a bargain..

splitter got 4/36

landry 4/28

milsap 2/19

josh smith 4/56

david west 3/36

hickson was a bargain.. a double double guy at 5 mil and still young...

Reasonable contract. It doesn't help them defensively, though, which is where they need help.

well bonn, it gives them a situation where they can rotate both he and faried.. hickson is not a bad defender and he can rebound like a horse and is a better offensive option than faried.. it gives the nuggs options, and on the cheap...

no worse than what we did, and bargs doesn't help us defensively or on the boards..

They did no worse when you consider the salary and assets given up in the Bargnani trade.

At least the Nuggets have evidence of an improving young player, not a player where we're questioning his love for the game, his health, his ability to play at a high level consistently. See Hickson was a double double guy which means in order to be double double guy....he brought it pretty much every night.

Bonn you're a Stat Whore..... I mean this in a complimentary way, go look up Hickson's numbers per minutes and get back with us.

We whacked it last yr when when arbitration ruled in our our favor for Novak and Lin. Grunny immediately proceeds to shell out 4yrs $16mil to a guy that does only 1 thing well and although fans didn't care for the contract overall, they were happy he got locked up because he helped spread the floor. We then trade this guy 1 yr later for essentially a malcontent who supposedly spreads the floor at double the cost when you factor Tax.

wait a second...dont faried and JJ play the same position...with the same skills?!?! a lil redundant?
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

Oh, I thought this thread was about Hickson and his value. Never mind.

So did Denver pick up any shooters? Also, they have to find some defenders.

Hey you know they still are hurt about the trade. I think some of our guys moved to Denver

I would say Hickson more polished offensively but we never beefed over having 3 point guards nor when we had 3 forwards last year.

If anything it may leave Arthur a little out of sorts but now they havea pretty decent trade asset

They led league in points in the paint...and they do have adequate shooters...

Chandler/Gallo/Fournier/Hamilton

I think we proved more than any team last year having shooters can be overrated.


I will admit they need a more defensive mindset maybe Shaw will provide that scheme wise. It's not like we had a ton of defensive minded players on our team but our coach did preach it a lot.

this is what analysts would call a coup,

5 million per year for a BEAST FUCKING MONSTER ANIMAL??

JJ HICKSON is the truth!!!

i've been following this guy since he blew up in april of 2012,

had him on my fantasy team this season and he dropped numbers (until i traded him for kevin martin in a desperation playoffs push late season),

beast animal,

in my wildest dreams i imagine hickson in new york, PERFECT FIT FOR US, BUT NOW HE IS A NUGGIE, THEY ARE STICKING IT TO US LIKE WE ARE PUNKS

Pachulia got more than him which is weird. Hixon plays hard and puts up double doubles.
