I would have traded dickau and jones for wally z in seattle.....they guy is back but has no place on a team with suck talented young swingmen......I would have inserted wally as the starting 3 and made q the back-up.

Opening day would have been:
Zach/ lee
Wally/ jared or balkman
Curry
Marbs/nate
Craw/ q

As of day one I would be trying to trade marbs. I understand it would be tough but at this point where nate is effective and collins is around.......marbs must be traded. I would look to dump him on a team that has a few bad contracts. Over and out....

Whatever the going rate is for nba gms is fine for me.....im waiting for that call.

Do you really think that each player with bad to offul defense is good for the Knicks?
We already have GM thinking like this so you don't need to take over.

Plus the dude spends a lot of time sitting with injuries... he's a fragile guy.

Defense.....

When booby hit 4 straight 3pters did the knicks need bruce bowen to stop him? No. It was a coaching breakdown cuz all of the 3's hit by boobie and jones were a result of the knicks sending a double before lebron even put the ball on the floor.

As far as wally,he's a very accurate jumpshooter. So what he's always hurt. The knicks have the bodies to cover. Wally is on a team that doesn't need him. He is extreamly available cuz of green, durant, and wilkins.

Anyway......you get wally with the idea of having balkman/jared come in as the stopper.

Hell......there are mucho jumpshooter available that isiah can try to get. Shotblockers? We all can have a secret ballot and everyone would name the same guys. None of them are available.

The problems on defense is team related......as far as the progression of the roster.....marbs has to go and Q needs to be removed as the starter. The knicks would be lethal with a shooter like wally and nate promoted to starter with collins getting minutes.

I'd fire everyone and trade everyone. I'd start over. I'd hire as many poeple away from all the best NBA organizations: Phoenix, Detroit, San Antonio, Dallas, Chicago, Miami. I'd get as many young players from winning college programs as possible and draft picks. I would then proceed to PRAY MY ASS OFF that I could draft OJ Mayo, Derrick Rose, or Nicolas Batum, while also putting myself into a position to grab the next available legitimate superstar via free agency.

And, believe me, if a SUPERSTAR could sign a max-deal in New York City with good young talent around him, he would.
