>>but the Spoon, eisley and shandon triumvirate, was a dark period in knicks history....
Don't forget Eric Chenowith, Michael Wright, Erick Strickland and Milos Vujanic
Go look who was drafted after chenowith and wright, and after Slavko vranic...
in 2003 instead of taking a player who could play with the second round pick,layden blew the pick off with slavko vranic( a project) and look who went way after him late in the second round..
Willie green, zaza pachulia, kyle korver, keith bogans, james jones and Mo williams..
in 2001, he takes michael wright who was a true tweener and passes on earl watson( like we didn't need a PG then) and Bobby simmons..
Again IT really makes the most with his draft picks, even with ariza, layden took some bad chances, for a conservative guy, he just pissed away second round picks on projects when there were guys availabe who had proven careers in college.....
Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser...............
