The reason why not drafting Amare hurts so much is because Mark Jackson actually went to the Knicks brass and told them about this kid. Don't know if you guys remember or not but there was an article about how Mark Jackson was trying to get the Knicks to draft him at 7. It was ironic that Jackson then got traded on draft night in the McDyess deal but anyway, the point is, we had someone telling us to draft Amare. Its not like we didn't know who the hell he was.

if thats true than hire Mark right now! I wanted him as coach a while ago but whatever. I think it would be great to have Mark as coach and Isiah as president. We would never draft a bust again!
