but if he bulks up, he will be slower, and his shot will be off and then that's it! and your dawg iverseon was skinny for his whole career. he sucked, but he lasted for a lot of years.

you are delusional

But at the end of the day if people are in place that you don't trust or can't get you the information you are responsible for making sure you make the right call. What was Walsh so busy with after the trade deadline? Seriously?

He didn't really do anything this offseaon except hold workouts and play smoke screens all over the place. You biggest position of need is PG.

Evans, Flynn, Curry, Rubio, Jennings, Lawson you're entire second half needs to be on these guys. Especially Flynn, Curry, Jennnings and Lawson. Watch every tape of these kids. It's basketball not brain surgery, get the scouting departments to break down the film so you don't have to waste time.

Poor form and effort on the Knicks part.

The Knicks didn't select Jennings, so there is no need for Walsh to point fingers and play the blame game- he should just learn from the mistakes made, and move on, remembering not to repeat those mistakes in future drafts.

was wondering myself, but perhaps he needs to send Dolan a message.

that was my take. Seems like a powerplay by Walsh. If you want the best results I need my people, not the last guy's. I wonder how much those guys are making

If he's not careful, he may find himself giving roadside interviews soon...

LOL. The funny thing is, LB's antics did not seem so strange at the time, but looking back on it you are left with a big feeling of "WTF??!!!"

Douglas is a nice role player, but his ceiling is limited. He is 23 already and very old for his class and is a volume shooter, but his defense is a huge plus.

Hill was just a very stupid selection and redundant.

he's not really redundant. he's the biggest guy on the team other than Curry (i'm not even going to count Darko). i'd like to see what he can do at some point, but hopefully all the minutes for jeffries lead some contending team to take a chance on him for an expiring.

but, yes, missing jennings is going to hurt for a while.

imagine next year:

PG jennings
SG Chandler
SF Gallo
PF Lebron
C DLee

try guarding that. sigh. oh well.

I DON'T BUY IT, Walsh is covering his tracks, DAMAGE CONTROL.

Thats what I'm saying. So the scouts say he's very good, but because they didnt bring a shotgun to the meeting and literally threaten you with bodily harm, they're to blame and not your dumb ass?

What kind of weak ass, bellyachin', "imma blame the next man for my fault" nonsense is this?

Like others have said, if Isiah was still here, Jennings would be here so Walsh missed me with all that. We would also have a million overpaid "stars" and enough drama to power day time soap for the next 15 years but that's another topic.

if Isiah were still here this would be our team:

C - Zach
PF - Lee
SF - Chandler
SG - Jamal
PG - Jennings

playoffs in '09... no chance at any FA's in '10... depending on what your priorities are for this team, that could have been a good thing or a bad thing.

not exactly. Isiah tried to trade Zach at the 08 deadline according to Hahn.

The bigger of the two came hours before the trade deadline. Thomas had a deal to move Zach Randolph to the Denver Nuggets in another complicated trade, but there is no disputing a trade was ready to be made. But at the 11th hour, Isiah was at it again trying to tweak and adjust and squeak a little more out of the Nuggets, who eventually got fed up and called off the deal.

If we made the playoffs in 09 we wouldn't have a shot at Jennings.

sorry, i was talking about this year... Jennings wasn't even in the NBA last year
