SMALL FORWARDS

1. Gerald Wallace (14.5 pts, 7.2 reb, 14.07 PER)
The lack of interest in Wallace has been one of the summer's more mystifying events. He's an outstanding defender, he scores enough to keep defenses honest, and he's very young (just 23). Nevertheless, he might have to take the Bobcats' one-year tender due to the absence of other suitors.

2. Devin Brown (16.4 pts, 5.2 reb, 14.57 PER)
A versatile performer who has been stuck in a deep Spurs rotation, Brown can shoot, defend and create shots. A late-season back problem has stifled interest, however. Utah is the only team to recruit him heavily, so Brown may stay in the Alamo City -- his hometown -- for another year.

3. Glenn Robinson (22.9 pts, 6.1 reb, 17.10 PER)
Big Dog played only 157 minutes last year, but his numbers should have gotten some people's attention. No strong offers have been reported yet, but considering Robinson's solid showing in San Antonio, a team looking for scoring punch off the bench should be dialing his agent soon.

4. Damien Wilkins (14.1 pts, 5.1 reb, 13.36 PER)
The son of Gerald and nephew of Dominique, this Wilkins held his own in limited minutes with the Sonics last season. He's a restricted free agent but is being seriously courted by Minnesota.

5. Latrell Sprewell (16.7 pts, 4.1 reb, 12.10 PER)
For the sake of his starving kids, let's hope somebody gives Spree a contract. He made a colossal blunder in turning down the Wolves' three-year, $21-million extension offer last fall. He'll be lucky to earn a tenth of that this season.


Isiah Thomas will lead us back to the playoffs in 2006 !!!

I really hope Big Dog gets some burn next season... he's an awesome scorer

that's a pretty good looking SF pool, but I believe Damien Wilkins was signed by Seattle today - they matched the Minny offer sheet
David f'n Lee for President!!

Isiah wants athletic and young, doesn't Gerald Wallace fit this bill? His defensive ability is for real, I have seen him swat Shaq like it was nothing. I wonder why he hasn't excelled more in his career? Does anyone have a better NBA body? Only a couple.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

I believe he has already contacted him. Gerald Wallace is a already a Knick. He plays like one. All he needs is a uniform. Who do we trade for him though? Draft considerations?

For what we know, Wallace may be the one that Zeke is targeting.

Well we definitely don't need another PG, SG, or PF. SF and C are probably the thinnest areas and it's much easier to get a young athletic SF than C with upside for only the LLE.

Ever since I first saw Gerald Wallace play I wanted him on the knicks. How much money does he want? 2 million is his qualifying offer which we cannot offer him. We cannot get him, we have nothing to offer except Sweets and they already have Sean May.

The qualifying offer is just for one year, though. We can offer him the LLE for 2 years (about $3.3 mil I think).
