A point distrubuting point guard, but the reality is the ball goes thru Lebron.

But we should not look at replecating Cleveland, but instead constructing somthing different. A vison built on the MDA way with Lebron as the engine.

IM thinking DLee as a major cog as a point forward that can distribute the ball TO lebron.

Gallo is a major tool but Im not sure he stays on the perimeter. Anyone notice how big this kid is getting? A multi tool player in the works. Give this kid a post move and he is Dirk lite.

Wilson is trade bait. Minny starts Wayne Ellington. Wilson is better and gives them a young contract friendly starter.

If Hill can step in and give us 25 solid minutes and TD is the back up you have lots of money to spend on filling in the blanks.

How GIGANTIC a circle jerk would all this be if Lebron just resigns with Cleveland?

Filling out. I don't know if its by design by knick trainers to get him more durable or build him for PF duty one day. This kid is no "Durant" type player. Half a season and he is staying pretty injury free thus far.

Lebron as a savior is not going to work. ITs not about what you surround him with but how you surround him.

Jordan alone needed both a system (triangle) and core pieces that were interchangealbe if you look over the teams Jackson had. Those teams had a formula. 6 titles in 8 years is not easy! The constant was Jordan-pippen for allstar talent. Im not saying Lee-Lebron cuz its not the same. Different era, different coach.

MDA will adapt to some extent, and Duhan won't be our point in the future.

Talk of Rubio is cool but if the kid can't shoot doesn't that kind of knock off a dimension?

Does and can Lebron carry team after team on his back and how far can he do it? I don't see the Cavs as championship material. Mo Williams is a nice player and Shaq can't go the ine line at games end so its all on Lebron.

IM thinking Lebron needs to see himself as the alpha dog on a more balanced team.

A Cablevision Channel: LBJTV! Plus some bodacious endorsements, and a young core of Lee, Chandler, Douglas, Gallo and Hill.

LeBron will succeed wherever he goes. To get rings you need more than sneakers and a ticket.

He needs all the help he can get.

NYK has some nice young talent.

Chandler's all around play is arguably the best on the roster at present.
Lee continues to improve and is the best offensive player.
Gallo shows bright promise.

Hill, TD, and Landry show promise.
Jeffries could have a role at a reduced salary on a chmapionship club.
Nate's the wild card in the deck. He could be your starting point guard next year.

Said last summer I thought Nate and Toney would be good for each other. LOL now TD dunks.
Go figure.

Every team I remember watching win the ring had some good talent on the bench
and on the floor. They could play more than one style of basketball and adjust
to the competition.

New York simply lacks an inside physical presence. Your a marshamllow inside.
Give me Gasol.

Bill Simmons on Tyreke Evans "The prototypical 0-guard: Someone who handles the ball all the time, looks for his own shot, gets to the rim at will and operates best if his teammates spread the floor to watch him."
What would Lebron need to succeed?
