Our main weakness is not PG. Nate will eventually get a handle on the backup spot despite his daily quota of bonehead plays.

Our main weakess is at SF and Matt wasn't the answer although he would make a good project. Boston has Pierce and Davis; NJ has VC and Jefferson; Philli has Igoudala (who's looking like a future Allstar and he sure did shut down Kobe) and even Toronto has Charlie V.

Marbury has been asked to compensate for that lack of scoring from the SF position and we've had to draw Frye out to the 3-point line to help (he's done quite well at it also). However, we want Frye down low mainly with the threat of going outside (not the other way around like now because we also need him to rebound).

We don't have anyone who can take over a game in the halfcourt at the small forward position. Ariza is a nice player on the break but he's dead in the water in the halfcourt game at this point in his career. David Lee is ultimately a backup PF and not a 3. I think it's obvious to anyone that we're unlikely to be a major player for Lebron in 07' as Cleveland will trade the entire squad to hold onto him.

So, i'm hoping that there's some type of AD or Penny + filler trade for Rashard Lewis. His scoring, shooting percentage and rebounding has gone up every year and his 3 pt fg% is almost at 40%. He's exactly who and what we're looking for.

Go Get'em Isiah

I think its going to be Spree. Why would he come here? Cuz noone else is paying him, and he knows he's loved in NY. Plus, maybe he regrets the sour note he left on. But knowing Spree, or at least the image he puts out there, he would come here simply because that gives him 41 more chances to scream at Dolan.

^ Please...


Every "Post" is FOS.

Like its been acknowledged already.....there's no trade imminent. Only a signing.

Everyone get over yourselves.

ROse and lynch are the same, so I don't think its lynch unless rose is moved.

I'd like to see JJ reddick here next year with our low pick. WE need a pick and roll shooter with range.

I didn't "steal" any names and say that I had insider info on them. All I said were these are more names that are possibilities. If you want me to credit you in a footnote, I will, I can edit my posts. Again, I have no idea who its going to be, I'm in the same boat as you guys. I just know its going to be someone. As of right now at least.

I don't claim any inside knowledge. It seems apparent that it is not a free agent signing unlessa pending "deal" falls through. Looking at possible trades its either one of the targets previously mentioned or one from out of the blue. That being said, it could be anyone-none of us has any knowledge. The only thing we can be certain of is that posters will keep throwing out names and after the day is done someone will claimed to have been proven RIGHT!

If the Knicks were going to sign an inactive free agent I think they would have worked them out by now and we would know about it. Otherwise, I think they must either be looking at someone playing in the D-league or a trade--a known commodity.

yeah thats a good point but larry brown said that there'd be a new "guy" in the locker room. if it were a trade I would think that he would have said "guys" becuase in order for the matt barnes release to make sense then the upcoming trade would have to involve the knicks to take back more guys than they give (unless barnes was simply cut becuase he sucks). thats another reason why I think crashdms source is right, unless the knicks as an organization is just going out of its way to lie to the media.

Well there's two things here that can confuse you:

1. Larry is hinting at the fact that we will have a new guy in the locker room during this trip.

2. Larry mentioned the fact that December 15th is right around the corner and maybe there will be alot of movement they'll try to get in on. Our trip ends well before the 15th...

Now my source, and again you can check my track record, is the one who told me about Jerome James (exact contract length and money) a month before we signed him, told me about Eddy Curry the night we traded for him, and told me about LB a day before we officially signed him. I'm not trying to show off or anything, I'm just helping out some fellow Knick fans and making discussion.

Nobody is arguing against the probability of a signing here. All I'm saying is that I would bet the signing would be somebody playing in the D-League.

I hope your right cuase my liver quivers at the thought that zeke might sign a washed up vet like glenn robinson, or lynch.

Btw guys....Crash is AA on K4L.

Just wanted to point that out.

He's sneaky.....vetty vetty sneaky.

^Marcus Fizer, I don't know why he isn't on an NBA roster.
