For the knicks to be any better next year we have to get a defensive minded center who can guard & footers. Sign lee for 10 and get a big time center for 7 million and sign a max guard and we are in business. If you get lebron you still wont have a point and big that can guard like varajevo.

We were supposed to fill one of those voids in this yrs draft, knowing we don't have our 1st rd pick. We had an abundance of guards in the draft in the early 1st rd and we took none. This management better get a free agent pg next yr or else.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

D'Antoni doesn't play centers. His line up has guys like Lee and Diaw as his centers. Unless the next Brad Lohaus shows up I don't think anyone over 6'9" is in the middle for the Knicks.

Jordan Hill??? D'antoni has to trust the rookie...kid needs his minutes...jared should be the back-up when the rook is struggling. I'm absolutely done with Duhon...he just plays the Knicks to sleep....only guys playing hard out there is Nate and David Lee...Wilson was sleep walking all game

Seriously. Enough with pretending we're "one player away".

MDA has Amare Stoudemire and Shawn Marion in the absolute prime--he doesnt want to play a 7 footer but these guys were unique one of a kind players on the same team[and they still got jobbed inside on the d] either he accepts some form of 7 footer--Bosh would be nice or we will be small in almost every game. Hill was active --why not play him 30 minutes?? Playoffs are officially over.

Mike would play Bosh because he's a gunner.

Playoffs? Never even been a thought IMO. I tried to explain this weeks ago but nobody gave a **** what I had to say. No biggie. But now you see what I was saying.

I don't really think anyone that has watched this team thought they could make the playoffs. The only thing that has come up has been questions about the coach and his rotation. The guys with expiring contracts playing tons of minutes has never made any sense when there was a lottery pick and another first rounder on the bench. The playoff goal in my opinion is for MDA's ego. The Knicks would need to be committed and coached like the Rockets if they wanted a shot at the playoffs this year.

The Knicks were a few percentage points away from the 8th spot at one point.....Knicks still can get in.

I don't think you can just give up on the team even they give up on us all the time. Truth is Wilson is a walking zombie, Chris duhon is the worst starting point guard in the league, Gallo is looking like the one trick pony ESPN says he is, and Jared might be the worst starter in the NBA....thats it in a nutshell, besides the fact the Knicks aren't playing a nba shooting guard.

Knicks need to explore trades...Its hard to think next year already...its eating at my Knick pride

Wow, you must not read this board much because all the usual suspects were running on about the playoffs from December through just a week ago.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

Is a young raw mess of a player.

And any player you muse "well in four or five years he'll be good!" isn't a player that is going to win you games.

He should be playing though. Consistent minutes. We need to know what we have here. Recently he FINALLY seems willing. So give him the minutes. 20 at least. And shove Jared Jeffries into a Mike James trade already.

I just KNOW we are going to get rid of Jeffries. He is playing out of his mind. It's going to happen. I can just feel it.

And when it happens then Jordan Hill needs to start and play 25 minutes a game. I don't care if he picks up five fouls in five minutes. Leave him on the court.

hard for Jordan Hill to show you much when his teammates won't pass him the ball everytime he flashes off a pick... i musta saw him get looked off at least 6 times last night when he was slashing to the basket with his arms raised in the air.

& i have no idea what you're talking about with him "finally" seeming willing... i've seen him show consistent effort on the floor every game he's played this year, including games where he struggled... if there's 1 thing u can't question about Jordan Hill's game, it's his willingness to give a good effort.

I don't understand either side of "the Jordan Hill effort" argument. Both assertions make no sense. He's a young, developing player and deserves some patience, while his back story doesn't entitle him to more.
