take a gander at the list of available Free Agents after this season... probably the worst class of FA's i've seen in a long time... there's only maybe 2 or 3 names on the entire list i'd even bother looking at if i was a team w/cap space

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

So this writer, Kahn, who writes for Newsday says that ideally, Donnie will be able to sign Lee and Nate and still go after Lebron, Bosh and Nash!
I'll never trust this' team again.

only way that can happen is if we dump Curry & Jefferies' contracts now for expirings... u can't just figure on having cap space for 2 big names, u also have to factor in the rest of the roster spots that will need to be filled.

hoping we can draft one this year w/our pick... Thabeet's shotblocking would look real nice in a Knicks' uniform.

I also see us going over the salary cap again, but at least this time it would be worth it.

I'd like to go after Tyson Chandler in 2010.

he'd be a nice 3rd guy to complement the 2 stars, but i wouldn't go big money on him.

oh bro, after 2010 we're gonna be capped out for several years... but at least we'll have talent worth being capped out over just like u said.

Would be nice for the run and gun system, but as a third signing after hopefully Lebron and another star. Wonder, though, who would you pair Chandler with? Bosh? Amare?

If I had LeBron and Tyson in the bag I would pair with Bosh. Dude is not as hurt and can post up better than Amare.

If the Knicks sign off on Mobley....then in 2009...the Knicks should do all they can to make this happen again:

The pickings are slim no doubt. Good thing we're looking at 2010. Anthony Parker holds some interest for me. I think he's a Shooter who could fit right in on this team. I wonder if MDA could get something out of Stromile Swift. He avg's a bit over a block a game.

Stromile is a blockhead, i would pass on him... we can find shotblockers in the D Leagues who can give us what he could at a much cheaper rate.

Parker is sorta redundant when we have Q Rich, Chandler & Nate also... don't see where he would fit in really... we need a physical frontcourt defender who can block some shots... a guy like Etan Thomas in terms of physicality & style of play... i'm sure there are guys like that in the NBDL that we can bring up on a 10 day contract to see what they got.
