![]() If you're going for Rasheed, any chance Shaq comes out of retirement?

![]() Rasheed can play D and spread the floor a little. For 10-12 mins per game he can be solid.

![]() This can't be true. Grunwald is better than this.

I think we're just doing agents favours- him and T mac had very little shot of making the team, but the fact they worked out for the Knicks generated some publicity for them. We do their agent a favour, and if they surprise us we can sign them- we have nothing to lose. Hmm, just been looking at His stats- I forgot what an infuriating player he was. He jacked up too many 3s (I seemed to remember him being a better shooter than he actually was) and was a poor/inconsistent rebounder, averaging between 6 and 8 (we roast Amar'e when he averages 9). Plus all the fouls and technicals. He was never as good as he could have been, but I did really want us to trade for him, before the Celtics stepped in to screw us and help him land in Detroit. Just out of interest has any player returned after retiring for 2 years and contributed? Especially at that age- maybe Alonzo Mourning? |

![]() Amundson just signed with the Twolves (for the minimum!) so looks like we're down to old dudes for the final roster spot.

![]() Would adding Sheed be any different than having a taller and better shooting Jorts? Jorts was young and probably not as good but his age is great.

He was a versatile player but never a great player like he could have been. At 38 and out of practice and with one of the poorer motors I can't see him being anywhere close to being helpful. I think Mourning had a decent run with the Heat alongside Shaq when he came back. But Zo was 34 and was of a different mindset than SHeed. |

KIDD Safe to say Woody cares only about coaching people who are at least as old as he is. TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

![]() loweyecue wrote:Strting Line up Ha- the thing is I get the Knicks thinking (old Vet guys are great in games 6 or 7 of a playoff series), but at the same time you have to actually get to the playoffs first. The problem with 38 year old players is that they are good off the bench, but if a starter gets injured, I really don't know if they can fill in as a starter for more than a game or two. Is Anthony Tolliver any good? Looks like the Twolves aren't re-signing him, but I don't really know much about him other than he used to be a pretty good shooter |
