with that in mind, let's think of some names that would be a good fit for this system... just as long as they play no defense & they can shoot the 3... here's what i could come up with:

Ray Allen (free agent)
Tracy McGrady (free agent)
Kyle Korver (free agent)
Mike Miller (free agent)
Nate Robinson (free agent)
Luke Ridnour (free agent)
Anthony Morrow (free agent)
Brian Scalabrine (free agent)
Michael Finley (free agent)
Tim Thomas (free agent)
Flip Murray (free agent)
Jarvis Hayes (free agent)
Matt Bonner (free agent)
Steve Novak (free agent)
Gilbert Arenas (trade)
Baron Davis (trade)
Rashard Lewis (trade)
Michael Redd (player option)
Vladimir Radmanovic (player option)
Channing Frye (player option)
Adam Morrison (QO)
JJ Redick (QO)

feel free to add other options that fits the mold

I can see us giving deals to those 3 guys.

resign marbs, make trades for arenas and peja (dump those young guys, who needs em). let the circus commence.

only if we can trade for or sign as many crippled guys (tmac, yao, arenas, marbs). then the nyks can be...

that's the beauty of the Michael Redd trade... we get a cripple & a no defense playing guy who can knock down the 3 all in one, plus he's grossly overpaid... how can u do any better than that? the only thing missing is huge amounts of baggage & character issues... maybe Marbury would be amenable to signing as a free agent if we offered him the big bucks.

Able to catch and shoot pretty well. Doesn’t do a whole lot in post up situations. A little bit on the soft side. Solid rebounder offensively, but doesn’t grab too many on the defensive end. Doesn’t show ideal anticipation when trying to block shots from the weak-side. Very foul prone. Had a half-way decent career at Memphis, but nothing that would indicate that he’d develop into an NBA player. Has spent time in the NBADL, as well as in the Philippines. Shows glimpses of what he can do against lesser competition, but hasn’t been able to figure out how to stay on the floor at the NBA level, despite his above average skill level. A lot of that has to do with his defensive ability.
Defense: Doesn’t have the strength to maintain position on the block, and lacks the lateral quickness necessary to step out and defend players that like to face up in the post. Usually asked to defend the center position, but struggles as a weak-side defender. Has a hard time containing bigger, strong post players. Doesn’t show good discipline when contesting shots. Will reach over the top and get called for a lot of fouls. Decent rebounder, but nothing to write home about. Not a defensive playmaker

forget Kenyon Martin, he's not a good fit... he doesn't shoot the 3 & actually likes to play defense.

yes..but he does have bad knees and a burdensome contract

DW comes from the defensive era and from what he's done and said I fully expect him to try to build a strong defensive team as well. We need to let this season go and stop judging things based on this "dead team walking". DW has a solid history of putting together solid defensive teams and why would he stop now?

I don't think this is about Walsh. This is really on D'Antoni's desire to not want to utilize players on the defensive end. I think you have to start and separate the two. To continue to lump them together is unfair to both MDA and Walsh.

walsh was the one who hired mda so walsh has to take the ultimateresponsibility
