How many backup point guards does one team need?

Five, apparently.

We already have backup caliber PGs in Duhon, Nate, and Douglas. Now we need Sessions and JWill who are also both backup caliber PGs. So the answer is five.

I guess Chandler will start at the point next year. I'm sure according to some he'll be a top 15PG if he starts.

This is our strategy - to put more back ups at each position than the other team, ensuring us a victorious path to mediocrity for the next 3-5 years.

I'm just glad you can't rebuild in NY

When are the Nets due in Brooklyn?

What is the over/under that Walsh will sign Sessions this week? I think its 50/50 that we will still be talking about making Sessions and offer next week. Walsh knows how to wear a player (and the fans) down with his slow negotiating tactics. It burned him with the Nate/Jeffries for an expiring contract from Sactown deal. Hopefully it will not burn him here.

A few summers ago an NBA team owner, frustrated by the lack of any news or signings for his team marched into his GM's office and made his concerns known to the GM. The GM picked up the phone, called an agent and offered a full MLE to his player so that the owner, media, and fans could have some new name to talk about.

The GM was Jerry West and the player was Brian Cardinal.

I think we're conditioned from past regimes to expect big flashy moves from time to time. Isiah was a master at this - Stephon Marbury! Eddy Curry! Zach Randoph! Whooopeee!

Now we have this boring, plodding old man running things. It appears that he has a plan and he's sticking with it. The plan may be to bore us to death, but at least he has a plan.

When did we sign Nate? Right now the only options we have at PG are Duhon and Douglas. Douglas is a rookie so its better not to have to rely on him to play heavy minutes at first, so you need more options. Duhon has only one year left and will probably be traded during the season, so that leaves the PG situation depleted. Sessions is a young pass first PG who could grow with the young core and leave at least a solid PG rotation for 2010. If you can get that young player with upside for the MLE, you have to try.

How many backup PGs does a team need? Well, if some want to see Sessions just like that, then consider that his contract should be small, back up like, so why criticize? The Knicks know they have to do their best to trade Curry and Jeffries, and if they do, they can still sign 2 FAs so the main plan won't be ruined.

Okay, I feel you. If we just hadn't included Mardy Collins in that trade we wouldn't be in this lack of PG depth situation. So let's get Mardy back somehow. I think a 2015 2nd rounder and cash ought to do it. We re-sign Nate. He's ours, we can do that. We S&T David Lee for Sessions. Lee gets his 12M, Sessions gets his 6M MLE (Since Lee is BYC this can happen.)

Then, we spend the MLE on Iverson and the LLE on JWill, and the Bi-Annual on CJ Watson

C-Darko/Curry
F-Harrington/Jeffries
F-Gallo
G-Hughes/Almond
PG-Iverson/Sessions/Duhon/Nate/JWill/Watson/Douglas/Mardy

Am I brilliant or what? Now that's PG depth if I ever saw it. Have I allayed your fears?

Yeah, Isiah might have had us frustrated and depressed, but we were never bored. We were more like in shock and awe.

Eny put the bear down and eat some cottage cheese.
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.
