this win against the spurs proved to me we don't need gallo for the long run...we need chandler much more

My thoughts exactly!

Ah yes...the trolls are trolling.

Ah yes!The people who never played the game are posting!

Yes it did. Danilo Gallinari provides nothing and adds nothing that we cannot replace.

Oh my goodness. This has to be something personal with you and Gallo. To say he does not add anything is just dumb and I don't think you are dumb.

haha.. for real.. but I tend to ignore those type of comments

I'd rather start Williams and play Gallo off the bench. This year, Williams has played at least as well as Gallo. Maybe if Gallo knows his minutes are limited he'll be more aggressive offensively.

rofl.....

and while we at it.. lets start walker over chandler.. at least walker dribbles with his head up and can go left.... right?

Gallo is our BEST player per possession.... I wish I could post links but don't know how but there was a breakdown when he got hurt
that proves this point!!

Gallo would avg 125 points per 100 possessions ....... Amare is second with 109 per 100

So saying Gallo offers nothing is just plain stupidity!!

He also plays great D and is only playing in his second full season!!

KNICKS on the way UP!!!

Wilson is a better player but who cares. Why do we have to pick one over the other. They both play great together and they both have shown that they will step up their games when the other one is injured. The reason we are good right now isn't because of all this great talent(although we obviously have great talent). The reason we are good is the mix. These guys are a true team. They play well together. The ball zings aroudn the perimeter and finds open people. They all hustle. They believe in each other. It doesn't matter who is the best player, who is second best blah, blah, blah. It matters that we are gelling as a team and both Wilson and Danilo are a major part of that. Now of course their are trades out there in which Gallo or Wilson can be included that may make us a better team. But why worry about that now, when both of these two guys are developing and playing major roles on a good team

What excites me? If this team can continue to win without Gallo, some of you idiots will look at it as a "see we don't need Gallo" moment. Waht I see is entirely different. If we can continue to win without him, it excites me that can still be a good team with one of our starters on the shelf. Imagine how much better we can be when he comes back.

Remember: You can never have too many good players. Celtics are winning without Perkins. Celtic fans are excited by this and still can't wait for him to get back because they know that he makes them even better. you can never have too many good players

I just hope that people will like me

Gallo is our BEST player per possession.

That's why people are so frustrated about the fact the he takes only 10 shots a game.

If he averaged 10 shots a game on this team it would be great!!

Amare gets 20 shots

Felton 17

Wilson 17

Thats 54 out of 100 shots with 3 players........ if Gallo took 10 that would leave 36 shots
for the other 4 players

TD takes 10 shots a game so Gallo actually shows that he can play 37 minutes HARD even if he doesn't
get rock enough....

You think Melo would be a happy camper if he got only 8 shots?...... Hell to the NO!!

Gallo is a GREAT YOUNG TALENT ....... Period!!

Then you should be upset with Felton and not Gallo because Felton and TD are the ones setting up the offense. Gallo takes his shots when they are there and takes it in the flow of the game. Like it or not, our offense runs through Amare first. If you say how come Wilson got his shot attempts then I tell you that Felton has ran more plays for Wilson in the PnR than Gallo. I have seen very little occurences where Gallo was the first option. He gets a lot of his points as they run through the offense and Gallo is the 3rd or 4th option. He also gets a lot of points off transition and he is very good at this. Not just making his baskets but spreading the floor by running hard so the other players can have a better shot.

^Also, in the SSOL, the 3rd and 4th option ususally does not get a shot attempt.

LOL No man, I just think we have the players to replace the shooting Danilo Gallinari provides. Aside from shooting and spacing the floor, he doesn't do anything else.

If someone thinks Gallinari doesn't 'do anything else', then they are not watching the games. Gallinari does it all out there, unselfishly and with little fuss. He's very efficient.

So you only want one player that's efficient and capable of doing everything on both ends of the ball? Because two would be detrimental? Gallinari is almost 7 feet tall and highly skilled, more so than Fields; he's a rare talent. He gets to the line, shoots, plays excellent D, can take it inside, finishes, is clutch, doesn't turn the ball over, and so on. Top it all off, he's 22 years old and has a year left on his rookie deal. To get rid of him would be foolish at this point.

I want to stress that he's almost 7 feet tall. Height matters in basketball. Lots of players are shorter and have great careers, but nothing beats being 6'11" or 7'0", getting those hands in the air and around the opponent when you're playing D. It helps in every part of the game. To have his combination of height and skill is unique and should be cherished, we should be thanking God he's on the Knicks.

One thing I wonder about is that if we add Melo, would that ruin the chemistry (on and off the court) we have as of now? I think the dynamics with Felton as the second leader and STAT as the true leader is working well.

I think it's risky thinking that we have to get Stat help right away. A plan I would fully endorse would be adding some depth, a good center and maybe having a project a la Randolph who could be the replacement of Stat. But AR isn't working out so far.

Think 5-6 years ahead. Do you think a core of Chan, Fields, Gallo and MAYBE AR would work?

ISergio you do have something personal against Gallo....

He doesnt score enough for you and thats your beef.......

Saying Gallo does nothing is just dumb..... He doesnt touch ball enough and its not his fault he proved at end of
last year that he can be # 1 option yet doesnt cry about not touching ball!!

He is second to Amare in FT attempts on our team as a fifth option ...... Refs give us no love BTW
when they do that total will rise.

Shoots FT's better then anyone on team!........ Plays tough D and his D rises in the Clutch!!

He is also our most Clutch ballhandler .... Has least amount of TO on the team!!

Gallo is asked to be a role player and he is doing his role QUITE WELL!!

KNICKS on the way UP!!!

Absolutely it would ruin chemistry. I agree that it's risky. This is the first Knicks team with this type of chemistry in at least 10 years. Depth, yes. But adding Melo is a very Isiah move.

You can't try to be someone you're not. We can't try to be like the Heat because we weren't the Heat to begin with. Gotta be the Knicks, Coach Mike's Knicks.

Man all I know is that this team just keeps getting better and even guys like Williams and Walker understand what Mike wants his players to do. They all have bought into the team oriented style. In fact since we don't have a ton of "ME" type players it works great. Chandler is so humble, as are Gallo and Williams. I prefer that to some of the selfish crap we've had for years. After watching this team play, does anyone still have a complaint about Mike wanting controllable players? The team is made up of predominantly "good guys" and not many rebels. What you notice most is the lack of drama. It's all concentrated on BB.

If Chandler is playing this well and can sustain this level of play, why do we need Carmelo at all? Keep Chandler, Keep Gallo and add pieces.

if Wilson sustains this level of play, then scratch any hope to sign another impact FA this summer cuz he's not gonna be cheap... if Wilson outperforms guys like Luol Deng, Andre Iguodala & Gerald Wallace this season don't u think his agent is gonna be asking for those types of dollars to stay?

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
