That's it we need Ewing back in some capacity to lift this damn jinx

Exactly. Ewing can call off the Voodoo priests.

Maybe we could offer to sacrifice IT to remove the curse ?

Bulls get a top 3 pick..

there you go, all you you ignorant folks wanting to tank... read my motto!!!


Huh?!?!?!? The 6th pick is much better than 15th pick, right? And if we tanked all the way, we would have had a top 3 pick like Miami got.

Anyway, if we didn't get the top pick, 6th isn't such a bad spot. Hopefully this takes us out of the running for "combo guard" Bayless. Now we can focus on someone like Randolph. No sense in wasting our lottery pick on someone who isn't a true point. yay.

Not only did the Knicks get knocked back a spot to 6 but 2 of their biggest rivals got the 1st and 2nd picks in a 2 player draft.

This hurts on 3 levels.

6th pick can still land a PG for the Knicks...which is what they need.

I don't mind miami- but Chicago has plenty of talent- they should have competed. They've had enough lotto picks thanks to us.

I am sick.

You better mind Miami. Wade is going to come back healthy after taking last year off, Marion will be back and throw in Beasely and they're a playoff team next year. All they need is a decent PG and a defensive center and they're right back in it.

You think the Heat resign Marion if they draft Beasley? I see Beasley has a three..isnt that the same position that Marion plays?

So what, the 5th pick is still better than the 15th pick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're either building for a championship or you ain't nothing. The ceiling for Isiah's dreck was no better than 40 wins and we're not winning no championship with Zach Randolph and Eddy Curry so in my book, the 6th pick is HEAVEN compared to the same old same old mid to late round pick which gets us NOWHERE.


And WTF is Latroy Hawkins throwing at Adam Jones head?!?!?!?!?

It's too bad we couldn't get the fifth pick. Walt "Clyde" Frazier was the fifth pick 41 years ago.

So was Kenny Walker and he pretty much sucked balls in the NBA.

Jeter got plunked earlier in the game on an up & in pitch by Cabrera & had to be taken for X-Rays... it wasn't a pitch at his head but if you missed it Hank made it clear at the beginning of the season the Yankees wouldn't stand for their star players getting plunked anymore whether it's intentional or not... i don't agree w/throwing at a guy's head tho... that's uncalled for.

Think back a year ago and all the bitchin and moaning Celtic fans did, and we don't want to be like that. Alot can change between now and the start of the season.

Hawkins is an idiot and the yankees and mets suck donkey nuts... Don't talk baseball to me until the yankees start winning.. LOL..

anyway, pick 5 and pick 15 this year will basically yield you the same bum player this year in most cases...

i don't know what this team would do w/o LaTroy Hawkins... i especially love the fact that such a worthy player is wearing Paullie's #21 & honoring it with such class & greatness.

This is why I cant get too wrapped up in basing the long term health of a franchise into this randomness...

Hope this puts all the 'fix is in for NY' talk that all the East Coast bashers love to conjure up. Actually, the '97 Knicks/Heat disgrace should have already accomplished that.

This just sucks. Well, lets get ready for Melo or whomever, because the 6th pick aint' SHYT. And it damn sure doesnt compensate for this abortion of a season!!!!!!

If I was Denver there is no way in hll that I would trade Carmelo Anythony for pick 6 and whatever other pile of crp the Knicks can throw there way. The Knicks really blew their chances to rebuild the team by fliudering their lottery picks of the last 7 years on Curry Marbury and indirectly Zach Randolph. We couldve made a team. Unless Denver is that gullible and stupid[and I doubt it] we dont have nearly enough goods to trade for a player of Carmelo's talent.
