top 5 in the lottery, here we come! SWEET!

Who are we going to draft next? Mike D's Butler's son or the mailman in Mike D'Antoni's neighorhood? I really don't have faith in the Knicks drafting ability.

career shooting
Cross cutting from the two trades:


JC 40% from the field 34% from 3

mobley 43 from the floor and 38 from 3.

Mobley is better defensively.

Plus he costs ZERO in 2010~.

I think we'll be better than what we look like on paper. We have shooters and have some reclamation possibilities.

Who ever the Knicks draft my prediction is it is a small forward and we will either know weeks in advance who they are selecting or they will take a guy who is not on the draft board for rounds 1 or 2.

i know ur being sarcastic but we already got some depth at SF w/Chandler & Gallo in the future... i would say the Knicks are probably gonna look to draft a C, or a banger PF if they trade D Lee this year... or they might go after a SG.

Cos we were so good before these deals.

This team was completely mediocre, but two of the most important players were traded for trash. Instead of a .500 team, we're getting a .300 team

And a lottery pick! Ahhh, now I feel better

That is a dumb mentality. When you rebuild you dont make the playoffs and win the title. You're thinking for the short term. We just got under the cap to pull in a superstar in 2010. All we need is a for a solid core for the next 2 years.

the absolute worst thing u can be in the NBA is a 40 win team... too good to get a good lottery pick & too horrible to win a title... stuck in perpetual mediocrity spinning your wheels & getting nowhere fast... i have no idea why anyone would wanna follow that path.

Because when you rebuild you are either mediocre or you suck. Thats the way it is.

Harrington, Mobley, Tim Thomas > Randolph, Crawford, Collins

And we've been an expansion team for 6 years now.

Before these trades the Knicks were just treading water, albeit with a more entertaining high paced style. Now there's hope for the future and an opportunity for kids who actually have a future with this team to develop.

OMFG.
Isles... said... the... word... HOPE!

Dude, so rehab went well? Did you have to show your certificate of completion to get let back in?

If by Rehab, you mean the pool at the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas, yeah it went really well.

You don't want to know what I had to do to get let back in. Think Clockwork Orange.
