For all those who question why Lee and Nate might have to be sacrificed in the Knicks pursuit for max free agents, tonight's game should put those questions to rest. Lee and Nate put up nice numbers but Wade basically took a **** all over the Knicks as he basically won the game singlehandedly.
You can be competitive with players like Lee and Nate but you can't expect to be more than that without a real franchise player.
Which max fA is coming to NY that is on Wade's level--Wade Lebron Kobe? OK they'll be in NY in two years--after that its crp shoot city with players who are not good enough to take a team to the promised land.
& yet u wanna lock up guys like Lamar Odom to longterm contracts? it doesn't make sense to me... we clearly need superstars... if we can't get one in 2010 then we need to look at other alternatives, but on premise isles is absolutely right, Lee & Nate are only taking this team so far... look at our W-L record this year... we still stink & both those guys are playing the best ball of their careers... doesn't take much to figure out we need big time upgrades if we ever wanna be serious about being contenders.
LOL--I keep hearing this--can you name me the superstar that is coming here? I mean what is the plan--who is your superstar?
i can't name the superstar obviously cuz 2010 isn't even here yet... who the hell knows what will happen from now til then... i do know 1 thing, that's locking up non-star players to longterm contracts is the wrong plan to follow, unless u wanna go back to the Isiah system of building championship rosters.
is there no midde ground? Its either cling to the pipe dream or go back to Isiah? There will be a lot of bigtime players that may be forced to settle for the MLE. Odom is one of them. I certainly hope we are players in that market
