14-21. This means to make a run a the playoffs, NY must be no worse than, 27-20 the rest of the way.

The positives? FWill, IT hired and Layden Fired, Mutombo, KVh of late, Anderson

The negatives: DON freaking Chaney, lackluster play, eisley, Dice
Lmape and Sweets on IR most of the year.

As some have said, they need an A player. Ewing was the last one they had. Houston and KVh could compliment an A player very well. So how do they get one? I guess that is where IT must get creative.
I do not think Wallace is that player. I want McGrady in 2 years. IT should making all the moves to get us under the cap after next season.

this team has some talent but lacks fire. As much as I like Houston, I wish deke could sell him to the lakers. I mean Kobe would have to go to lakers management and let them know he intends to leave regardless... He is the type of player that can save this franchise, I would be willing to give up Dice and houston, plus a pick, a guy like kobe along with KT, KVH would be a nice trio and add in Frank williams and we have a legitimate starting 5, could you imagine the defensive horror Kobe and frank would cause for other backcourts, this would be nice..

but only a pipe dream...

Marbury would fit right in here. Right now. and we'd be ready after they make a few runs, to rebuild. I know how some feel about Marbury. But I think it's the one move that makes sense. Mcgrady would be great for fandom and exitement but He won't win here. If we gonna get a superstar then let it be a point guard. A real point Guard. I was getting a little dreamy about somehow gettin Lebron when he's up but after thinking about it LEBRON WILL STAY in clev. Unless he has that thirst. BUT THE CAVS would have to leave town. HA haa. I think he stays home. Can you see the Headlines, LEBRON BOLTS TO NY... CLEVLAND BURNS... HA HAAA.

If the Knicks do what's neccessary to get McGrady in NY, he would be the superstar NY has been lacking. I like the future back court of Frankie and McGrady with Milos backing both up.

I heard this morning that Kobe wants to OPT OUT and come to another big city market and get away from the LA to prove he can win without Shaq. What other place would be perfect than NY. He would benefit in many ways. #1 He would probaly get his endorsements back and two NY fans would start selling out the garden again.

I think H20 would fit in nicely on the Kings...he would provide scoring from the SG spot which they are lacking - not that they need more scoring. But having him on that squad would create all kinds of problems for teams like the Lakers and Mavs. But who would they give up for him and how would they get salaries to match? Bobby Jackson is one person I wouldnt mind seeing in a Knicks uniform - they dont have anyone else for H20 though because you know Peja, Webber, and Miller are untouchable.

And just how do you plan on getting Kobe to NY? I would put my money on him being a Laker for life unless they trade him. The free agent talk is just Kobe wanting to show Shaq the entire league wants him on their team - nothing more.

The only way to get Kobe is a sign and trade and the Lakers dont want anyone from our team. They would rather Kobe just walk than take any of our salaries and if Kobe just walks he can never sign with NY which is ridiculously oer the salary cap.
