If we don't get Lebron, then I say go for three' star players!

Bosh
Stoud &
Yao!

What three would you take? Why not do it?
I'll never trust this' team again.

if we can't get Lebron then IMO it's likely we won't be able to land Bosh either... i think Amare is very likely to come here tho listening to how he's been talking of late as is Nash since he already lives in NY & loves our head coach & the system he runs... if u added another banger like Boozer to those 2 along w/Harrington, Duhon or Nate, Wilson Chandler, Gallinari & whoever we pick in this year's draft, u would still have a very good roster.

Yao Ming's not a FA til after the 2011 season according to hoopshype.

Must be something wrong with me, I just can't get all worked up about who might or might not sign here in 2010. I'm happy that we will have cap room and flexibility to build a 'new' team, that's as far as I can go. All this Lebron worship is a bunch of hype and anything can happen between now and then. Frankly, I think he's an idiot if he leaves his team...the one that they built for him....the one that they revamped after a finals loss to the Celtics...the one that has some great defense that wins playoff games...the one that has some great depth. How about giving the guys we have now a little shine.

Lebron, Wade or Bosh is all wishful thinking.

Its more likely that we remake the NY SUNS

Starting w/ a trade of Shawn Marion for Steph and something this yr!

Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson and Steve Nash

How about drafting Hasheem Thabeet and getting a second pick for Stephen Curry? That would be gosh darn lucky.

Why these two guys are better than anyone on the knicks. These are not 19 YO Italian boys.

Still, it you can get them you do it without even thinking. And since LeBron and Bosh aren't a sure thing you have to keep improving other ways.

Thabeet is improving at a shocking pace. He is scratching the surface. While I'll say at this point Griffin is likely a consensus number 1 Thabeet has the highest ceiling. Just remember 7-3 275 chiseled pounds athletic fast mentally tough smart with a 7-7 wingspan. He'll be a better pro than college player.

Hye DJ--remember when walsh said they took lumps in Portland but now they are good--they drafted the entire team and only made small EFFECTIVE trades for guys like Fernandez Pryzbilla and small signings like Blake. They did it the right way they have a whole team for a decade and with Bird rights they own everyone.

Starphucking:
My wishlist if we dont get Lebron would be to get Chris Bosh in 2010 and CP3 in 2011.
Ah..one can always dream...

Shotblocking:
We need to draft a shotblocking big like Thabeet(Never seen him play, assuming he does play defense since opinion on him seems to be so high) or prise away someone like Josh McRoberts from Indy (he is redundant there, good shot blocker, excellent passer). Mbenga @ center from Dallas seems to play defense and run well, free agent next year.

TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

CP3 is not a FA in 2011.

I'll take Q Rich,Duhon and Gallo over any of those FA.

Whatever happens happens-- I just really hope that Gallinari AND Chandler turn into borderline all-star players-- I think a big part of our future rests on that.
