Dude I know you're pissed about the Knicks and all,just like all of us but ariza is on his FIFTH different team since leaving the Knicks. Apparently it was more than just the garden that didn't want him...

True that. But to be fair you go where the money leads you. Lakers wanted him back but cap restraints did them in and Houston made an offer he just couldn't refuse. Just like the Knicks lost Lin. Anyways that is water under the bridge. Ariza needed time and the NYK management would have wasted his talents so I'm happy for him that he got out of NY. If I'm Hardaway or even Shump I would be screaming to get off the Knicks and into a situation that knows how to develop players.

Traitors! all of them! Betraying Dolan! Plotting against him, disrespecting him! thank god they're not on the team! Give me Steve Francis, one season of Amar'e, and 4 years of Felton any day of the week!

What's going on with Lin lately? His Feb numbers are down to 9.9pts per game, 40%FG, 4.6 ASSISTS and 2.7 TOs. Better than Felton, but is he injured or something?

Oh my goodness. I hope he's okay! Maybe we should send him a care basket?

I believe we just have a poor development system

At this point, it would be probably in both Iman's best interest and NYK's to part with each other
However, I think Iman's value will decline because teams that have interest in him would use him as the last piece to contenders, both with Iman and Chandler

Many bash Iman and Chandler, but we don't have good players to play DEF with them
Kmart was the glue to that DEF

Woodson is stuck with the idea that he can reinvent the success that Detroit had under Larry Brown with
However, their skillsets, IQ, versatile talent on both ends, style of play, depth and chemistry are not the same as our roster

Billups
Hamilton
Prince
R Wallace
Ben Wallace

Delfino
Affalo
Okur

Bynum/Stuckey?? forgot who their backup PG's were

Thanks Skeng, Mike James and Atkins were both solid for them, even Hunter hit some big 3's and timely steals at times with his long arms

Wow, Vmart
I forgot about Williams, he was a nice role player as well, though he was much better while on the Kings
I remember Delfino/Affalo/Prince/Hamilton all playing the SG/SF role more though on Detroit

I would love to bring in some of Poppavich's once mentored ex coaches in if we cannot get Poppavich himself (the guy on the D League that Playa or Crush brought up awhile back)

Also if Duncan retires this summer, I would target him as a lead assistant or even head coach job with high salary
I think he would be great because he would also be able to help us recruit, championship pedigree, work ethic, and develop players with his wisdom

I believe he would be a great addition with his fundamentals, leadership, and would help the development of our future BIGS and promote more TEAM PLAY

For our development staff, fire everyone but Hopla, get a ex PG/development coach that has shown to develop quality PG's in the past, and possibly another great F that teaches the art of fighting for position/boxing out/and how to play DEF for BIG's especially


Out of the recent Head Coaches, I would be most interested in ex Memphis coach Lionel Hollins, JVG, and Jerry Sloan (old school under rated coach that takes no crap and preaches DEF/DISCIPLINE)

Though I wouldn't mind PORKY as a coach, there probably is some *BEEF* with JR and Melo (depending if he stays or not)

Most importantly a GM that would work with these head coaches

Lol.. Porky? Is that George Karl? haha

I'm intrigued by Udoka. Can't wait for a new coach to come here. Besides his struggles as a coach, there's just something that annoys me about Woodson and his face
