With training camp fast approaching, it seems we are going to camp with at least 17 players. I am thinking without a deal in place to trim the roster, Dan Dickau and Jerome James get the ax. From a money standpoint, James would stay and Jones would go, but it seems that money is not the biggest concern with our team. What do the rest of you think

So guys are going into camp fighting for roster spots? That would be stupid. There have been trades made during pre-season. That to me is more of a distraction than anuncagate

No time for this... bball stuff.
Do you know that MSG and Isiah integrity is on the line?
Who cares how many players?

I thought James and Jones also, but Isaiah drafted Jones, so there are ties that bind. I feel that Artest will be a Knick if not this year then next, but that trade is not here right now, and the only pieces I would let go in that deal would be James/Jeffries/Robinson..that's if the trade happens before the trade deadline and after we make cuts to get to 15. I am really excited about this year and the potential of our team, but I said that last year. Let's hope we make the right cuts or right deals to get us where we need to be..at the top..GO KNICKS!!!

Marbury and Jerome get cut
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

how quickly you guys forget that jerome is the only knick with a winning percentage as a starter.

division by zero? Oh right, that was when Isiah was doing the twin tower thing.

Does Jerome have more minutes or fouls during his starts?

I don't think Marbury needs to be cut. I think his big head is about to explode, and we can just get the Medical Exception.

I would like to cut Jerome James but I can\'t. The guy still is 7-1 290+ and if the darn guy would ever accept to eating well and taking weight off he *could* be effective in that 12-15 minute role he had at Seattle. To much money on the table. What I would do is what Riley did to Walker--either you get to this weight or you are fined and suspended.

Malik Rose--intangible player a leader tough/ undersized inconsistent does he really have a role going forward--I would still keep him

Dan Diackau--Decent player when given PT at the PG but is he really a 30 minute player at the point with what we have? Ending Contract--do we really need 1?
Fred Jones--cut terrible % player who does not fill oen need anywhere except his ending contract.

My take--we have who we have--I don\'t think the ending contracts are big enough to get us something that might come available or might not. Offer each buyoputs where we can svae enough $$$$ that pays the rookie contracts off. Goodbye Dickau and jones

Fred

Q, balkman, Jared and Chandler at the 3.

Marbs, craw, Nate, Collins, and Nichols at the 1-2.

Curry, Jerome, Morris at center.

Zach, David lee, and malik at the 4.

Isiah's only hope at sweetening any deal starts and ends with dickau and Jones. Thing is is tu even worth it? The knicks have a stacked roster. The talent is there. The knicks can definately get by off the players they currently have.

Only shooter I can see that is available for the knicks is wally Z cuz he's stuck in Seattle. Other than that what is the point of carrying these 2 players? There aren't any available players that's worth the trouble.

Artest? If the guy wasn't such a maniac he would be an untouchable piece in Indiana still. Mike miller is not going anywhere.

Kapono and that other dude in Charlotte are taken.

What about peja stoyakovic? He's currently recovering off of some crazy back injury.

No help in sight.

The knicks have to dump dickau and Jones.
