1) are the knicks smart enough to tank so that we can be in the lotto and hopefully have a shot at Jennings or Rubio?

2) will Gallo literally come Back?!

3) Is Wilson for real?

4) Can Jeffries show he has anything left?

5) When will we finally cut Marbury - or at least Hardaway him?

6) Can we please trade David Lee for draft picks?

7) Will Big Game take a medical retirement?

8) How long does it take for Fugazy to coast down court & fail to D up his man?

9) How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll pop?

10) Is Eny really bipolar?

Walsh has to be smart about this whole process. In order to lure LeBron we have to be more than just a team full of prospects and draft picks. While I have no problem with a high draft pick this year, we MUST be a good team at the end of next year in order to make LeBron or anyone else have serious interest in switching teams and coming here.

I believe that we won't be able to "tank" the season because even as presently setup this team isn't that bad, so scratch that idea off your wish list. MDA already has this team playing at a level which is likely to keep us out of the top 5. We can't rely on the draft to fix our problems from this point on. That is unless as you suggest we find a bad team willing to take Lee in exchange for a high draft pick. There's a chance that could happen, but i'm not banking on it.

I agree. The trades the Knicks made, they make us a better team. I actually wish we WOULD tank but we won't. Zach was UNTRADEABLE a month back. Suddenly everyone's upset we lost him. Why did he look better? D'Antoni's system. Same with Crawford.

Harrington, Mobley and Thomas will all thrive in the run and gun system and will look much better. This guy makes somebodies out of nobodies all the time. They're not tanking, they became a better team.

There's no way we're tanking. And I want a good pick, but there's no way tanking is happening, especially now that we got vets with playoff experience, who are gunning to win a championship at some point soon.

Not saying it's gonna come here, but still.

I think we should all be realistic here - this team is still flawed big time so what does winning 30-35 games and squeaking into the playoffs, before losing in the first round, earn us? It would be the same level of mediocrity that we have been settling for since Ewing left.

I say tank it, don't make the mistake Isiah made - we need to get top picks in here and grow from within. Then augment that talent with a big FA or 2 in 2010-2011.

Sure they can showcase Curry if he gets in shape and ship him out for picks or cap space, but I certainly do not see the advantage of winning meaningless games. Their record is a shocking turnaround from the past few seasons, but it is still only November and the season is long. Do you think they will keep winning this way? Certainly not after sending Crawford and Zbo packing.

Can someone explain to me how not tanking is going to help us outside of our Coach's ego and Dolan's pockets?

13) When will people stop making Lee trade scenarios?
14) How can we throw' Marbury out of the building, while getting some of the money back that he stole from us?
15) Will the delusional Knick fan ever figure out that it's 'the cap space stupid'?
16) Will the delusional Knick fan ever figure out that it's 'Lebron sweepstakes stupid'?
I'll never trust this' team again.

Things that won't happen. Gallo will not be back. Jerome will not take a medical retirement. The Knicks will not tank. The Knicks will not acquire any first round picks in a trade.

17) will Bitty ever post here again or is it all ultimateclippers.com for her?
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.
