I like your style Blobby, but I am fan that thinks the Giants will go 16-0 every year. I really don't see the Knicks losing again this year with my dusted off rose colored glasses.

You can look ahead, because you aren't playing

I want Marc Gasol, dagnabbit.

Though I agree with you about Carl Landry, I can't see him being available.

Gasol is an RFA this summer and Memphis is poor.

It's more than possible to beat teams like OKC, Phoenix (who really isn't that good), and Portland on the road or at home.

The toughest challenges are beating the Lakers, Celtics, Dallas, and probably Orlando.

The thing is with a spread floor we really are a tough team to stop, unless you want to go with a zone, which teams haven't been using against us that much. I'm sure someone will do that to try and stop our PnR game and frustrate us into bad shots. As long as we keep ball and player movement I think we'll be very competitive with the best teams.

If Amare sprains his knee--its all over for a long time. Thats why i think its pivotal to acquire a second quality big and try to keep amare at 35.

misterearl wrote:briggs - sure, it is no secret the Knicks are desperate for a quality big man. In a highly competitive environment, that is much easier said than done.

Give me Marcus Camby or give me death!

I consider acquiring a quality big a pivotal next step. We can talk Caremlo till were blue in the face but ya know what Fields Chandler Gallo and Williams will take care of business. In fact I dont even care about free agency if I get the right big man--Im very content with what we have on the wing long term --we need to get Amare's back--hes the man hes the foundation core. We have to make sure he is not over used and I would use any NON core asset including giving up FA to get that done. I think we have some pieces to get that done. And no not Marcus Camby for goodness sakes--dude is done.

misterearl wrote:briggs - you better check your facts. Marcus Camby is starting for Portland and at the ripe old age of 36 still rebounding the ball at a respectable 10.5 (3 offensive which are super valuable) and shooting 42 pct per game from the field... and STILL blocking nearly 2 shots a game.

There are few big men who are more suited to the new Knicks playing personality. Very few.

Quality big men who can put the ball on the floor, and have the studious timing on the jump, like Camby, are rare

Camby had 12 points and snared 19 rebounds in Sunday's win over the Clippers.

Always loved Camby, was sad to see him go. Glad to see he can still produce but we need someone younger and more long term. Too bad we can't get Superman, that would be NASTY.
