Stacking up all-star players is not gonna automatically make the knicks contenders, but in this case rashard Lewis would fit perfectly with the knicks right now. Zach and curry up front? Hopefully isiah could keep craw to pair with marbs still.

Zach
Rashard
Curry
Marbs
Craw

How deadly can a team with that kinda line-up be?

You gotta love a lineup where Marbury is your best defender.

Yep.

I rather have Balkman at the three. He may not a triple threat at the position but you do have to run plays for him. A healthy Richardson should be your starting 2 guard.

I would not start Q over Jamal at the 2. After last season it is clear the Jamal is a better starter than bench player. Also with Q's back problems you don't want a guy that's going to be in and out of the lineup. It's one thing to have a guy like Zach who has to learn how to play with his new teammates. It is another thing to have a guy playing 5 games and then being out for the next 5 games. Jamal is probably the best on our team at getting the ball to post players.

Q shouldn't be the 2 cuz he rebounds too well. The dude is built like an ox so what is the point of him chasing around NBA 2 guards? He needs to have the option to crash the boards. Again he can play shooting guard but he should start there.

Craw is not a good defender and he never saw a shot he didn't like. Still, he is an awesome ball handler. He is a creative passer and is the best perimeter scorer and clutch performer the knicks have. He needs to start and finish.

Knicks just need that 3pt shooter. They can just rely on Q if he is healthy. The knicks have 17 players on the team. They would have to make a move or waive some people. Dickau and fred aren't automatic waives in my book. Those guys are pros that have paid their dues. I'm sure dickau wants to prove he is worthy of a new NBA contract and Jones is an isiah guy. Those guys could still be flipped in a trade but so could anybody else.

Jamal may also be the worst defender on the team. No I am sure he is the worst.

The rumor is that Thomas is looking to package Dickau, Jones and Jefferies.

It depends on the position being played on defense. Marbury guards 2 guards well but can not guards who drive. However Jamal does a decent job guarding point guards.

Sloan would punch Nate in the face everyday in his life if he had Nate.

The knicks can get anyone available right now. They have expiring deals, youth and servicable players. They also have teams like the lakers and sactown by the balls since kobe can basically direct which team he wants to play for, and artest is a guy that isiah can throw take it or leave it offers at.

Rashard Lewis? Artest? Jefferson? Gerald Wallace? Morrison? Peja? Ak-47?

I think its very possible to get any one of those guys. I'm not bankin on one of them coming to the knicks but its very possible.
