regardless of what's really going on, within the past 6 months, we're looking at pau to los angeles, yi to new jersey and danilo to ny.

well, i hope we get some benefit from mr. stern for helping him expand the nba in the euro market. a number one pick next year would be nice.

sorry, but is brooklyn really part of NYC?

The Nets in Brooklyn- I dunno, might be like the Giants & Jets in New Jersey.

Trying to get Lebron is like dreaming of hitting the lotto. We are better off focusing on fixing things ourselves, and to do that, we're going to have to draft our own superstar.

Are you serious?

When some Knick fans talk about Lebron they sound like pre-teen girls talking about the Jonas Brothers. I wish some of us would just take a step back and realize how much we've put this guy on a pedestal.

Fish is obsessed with Lebron even though no one making the cap space argument is. Just let it slide.
thanks for your contribution. The article was about Lebron and the Knicks.

ofcourse Stern would want european players to play in big markets in highly populated areas with the same race to draw more interest ouside of the US and expand interest in the NBA. Any business man would want the same thing.

But to say that he if forcing trades and dictating where each player goes. I don't buy it.

that I am obsessed with Lebron? Your incorrect Bonn. However there is a small, but highly vocal group of people here that want to build this team around the opportunity to sign this guy. This article was apro pos to several of those recent discussions.

Its curious that you felt the need to interject that, especially when you will notice I have posted very little on the discussion I started.

Listen I never said stern does this every yr, I never said he does it in every trade or draft.

But when he does it and it looks like a set up(see pat ewing 1995) it's obvious he was behind the transaction, just ask TIM DONAGHY

I couldn't think of anything better for NYC right now!!! LeBron James in a Brooklyn Net uniform? BRING IT ON!!!

Let this be yet one more lesson with Knick management! If isiah-diot had played his cards right four years ago, he'd be the GM courting LeBron around New York right now.We would have been in capless heaven by now.

Every time a GM made a bunch of 'hands tied behind the back deals (Layden & Isiah)' then it always became another five year financial rebuilding plan, instead of a well thought out building-winning formula.

Donnie's not making the same mistake' and that's why you guys don't see any deals going down right now. And we may not for another two years.
I'll never trust this' team again.

LOL that article brings out the Yi(n) AND the Yao(ng) of US Chinese Basketball Association.
TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

And here's the kicker! I still remember an article that talk about isiah-diot, Jay-Z, Spike Lee and I think' Chris Rock, all hooking up one evening, at a night club in Manhattan. Just after isiah-diot was signed as our new GM. He was seeking advice, being new in NY and the guys told him 'whatever you do, do it fast'!

I think about Jay-Z bringing LeBron to Brooklyn and have to laugh at that advice he and the others gave isiah-diot about four years ago. The New Yorker out witted the chicagoan.
I'll never trust this' team again.
