Rudy Gay is a 2nd-3rd tier star. He is like Igoudala. Both have the physical tools and skills to be way better players.

How do you think this trade will effect the knicks?...toronto has now improved
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

Memphis will miss Gay's athleticism, abilities, and defense, sacrificing talent and 1 less BALL dominant for better ball movement/chemistry I do not think that Gay was used to his max potential in Memphis and a trade may help him as he can now be the best player and #1 option in Toronto |

Paul George is SG. Granger is SF correct?

I don't buy him as a shooting guard at this point in his career. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too.

Good for them
but Too bad if I were Knicks I'd offer up any combo of Novacs+J.White OR Novacs+Copeland Or do same deal for Andre Drummond of Pistons. Knicks need a valid Board-rebounder man with few offensive Skills Amir, Davis or Drummond would be great in NY for knickerbockers and Turntable Musiclover & Mix-Master-ologist

Crazy trade, but you can't argue it, really. Now do people believe that the Grizzlies have some serious financial issues? Maybe now we can stop bashing them for penny pinching; it really has to do with what it takes to keep the team running effectively.
I still find the new CBA ironic. It's a death sentence for small market teams. They get good enough to compete and then they are forced to trade one of their stars to keep the payroll low. Wasn't the idea to penalize the big market teams? Hilarious. Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

I think Parsons is definitely improving and his numbers say so too. I am a little bias but he looks like he is on the right track.

I think Memphis is stupid because they coulda been a contender... coulda been somebody. That said, Ed Davis is a baller and smart to cash in now while Toronto thinks they should keep Bargnani

callmened wrote:How do you think this trade will effect the knicks?...toronto has now improved not enough to bother noticing. Calderon was the player that would hurt us. Gay won't give them what Jose did when it comes to perimeter defense and point guard play. Jose was the engine that made that teams go, even if it was going nowhere fast. the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt
