By himself I think it would be too much for Bosh but he's gonna be here most likely with Lebron and that is a huge buffer. Lebron will always take more of the pressure and abuse. Thing is I don't think they'll have to worry about the media or Fans if they're both here. I think that with Boston getting old and the only other really tough East teams being the Magic and maybe a revamped Heat, the Knicks would be a force and going deep in the playoffs every year.

Bosh coming here would make the Knicks a YOung, but experienced top team that makes sense construction wise. Lebron, Bosh, Gallo all fit into slots that complement each other.

If Walsh really is committed to getting Lbj and Bosh then Gallo and Chandler should be expendable.

Everything I hear about Lebron is he wants to hit free agency again in three-four years with an option laden 5 year deal.

But if Bosh wants his 6 years, then we should be willing to trade Gallo/Chandler for him. Two young players that will likely rot on the bench at the 3/4. Chandler, Gallo and Curry for Bosh would make the most sense for all parties.

“It has been narrowed down to a handful of teams, including us,” Colangelo said, not going into any more details.

Seems Colangelo confirmed the story. I think Bosh is headed to LA for Bynum. Jackson doesnt seem to care for Bynum anyway.

I'm not sure why you think Gallo would rot on the bench if we added Lebron/Bosh. Gallo complements both players perfectly as an outside shooter. None of those players occupy the same space on the floor. I also doubt highly that DW would send Gallo. Chandler I could see but not Gallo.

They shouldn't be expendable but Walsh showed with the McGrady trade that he is all in so I agree. One or both may not be back next year.

Yeah Walsh is definitely all in. He did that McGrady trade so he could have options and its giving him a lot of options. resign Lee and add a top notch FA. Or go with two FA signings. Or One major FA and multiple FA signings. Options are there for sure.

Only position that both players played in the NBA so far.

Chandler has played Small Forward, Power Forward and Shooting Guard with the Knicks so far in his career. I said from day 1 why come Gallo was put into the Power Forward spot like Walsh said he would. But I was told that he is a small forward. So I guess there you have your answer.

Lakers head coach Phil Jackson is considering sitting Andrew Bynum for Game 4 against the Suns after the center's poor performance in Game 3 of the playoff series. Bynum, who is playing with a tear of the meniscus in his right knee, had two points, two rebounds and four fouls in the game.

"I'll talk to him to see what his suggestion is about it and how he feels about it," Jackson told ESPNLosAngeles.com. "I think he was ineffective. There were some things that got by him. He had one nice move in the post. Defensively I thought he was a little bit late."

Bynum doesn't think he'll be replaced in the lineup.

"I don't believe that's going to happen," Bynum said. "That's probably more so to motivate me and try to get me to play. "[My knee is] alright. I'm doing OK. I'm dealing with it so I can play basketball ... I got to be out here. I got to go play."

Bye bye Bynum.

MDA has always had SF's playing what would loosely be considered PF and PF's at C. Too much is made of this. How MDA actually would use Gallo would be to stretch the D and likely at times in the post but he can certainly play with Lebron perfectly complemeting him. I don't see DW sending Gallo away. I think he'd rather keep Lee than send Gallo.
