I don't like Iggy and Melo... I do think if could get Marion to do what he did in Phoenix, he could get Iggy to be pretty nasty too. That said, I don't necessarily think Amar'e, Felton, and Iggy is a championship trio. That is a pretty nasty core though

a good reason why it doesn't look like a champ lineup, not balanced. would be a great lineup for video game but in rl, would come up short. i like tms lineup that included fields and turiaf. you need good players who dont need the ball to shine.

Please keep Iggy away from my team. I'd rather have Chandler any day. Philly gave Iggy the keys to the team and he has disappointed. I want nothing to do with him. Yes if Chandler is lost to FA it will be huge mistake. He is simply better than Gallo we will be stuck with the lesser player. That is why the KNicks should deal for Melo so they can retain Chandler's bird rights.

u got 2 defensive minded perimeter players who both excel in the open floor, u have an elite go to scorer at the SF that can get u baskets when everything else breaks down, u got a dominant low post presence in the paint & a terrific role playing vet that loves to do the dirty work inside... seems pretty complementary to me.

i agree tms... i am not sure were they are not complementing each other... 2 ultra defensive wings all excel on the fast break a big that has a nose for blocking shots this could be a top 5 defensive team amare whos newfound d is pretty impressive and we have guys that, asking about two balls i mean the only complaint about iggy is some think he can be a ball stopper but with mike d even on the olympic team recently iggy was pretty good in a fast paced system .... would you guys make the trade ??

now that i think about it if melo aint available in the offseason our plan b of keeping chandler might put you in contention for very deep runs in the playoffs ....

No 3 point shooting!

Name last Winning team without a true 3 point threat?

Plus to me its like when Payton and Malone went to Lakers too many people who need to be the one!
I like our team........

Imagine adding Melo to the squad we already have?

Or getting CP3 or Deron added to this team?......

We have a good team...... And Gallo is playing well!

His shot is a little off so what?...... He spreads floor better then Iggy and better then Melo.....

How come everyone forgets Melo in Worlds or in Olympics?.... He proved he cant spread the floor as your outside option.

Melo plays mid range and in the middle to be affective...... I prefer Gallo STAY A KNICK!!

WE traded Mark Jackson and we regretted it!
Strickland! Regretted that too!.....
Ariza!! Too many to list.......

We don't need to trade Gallo nor does Gallo NEED to be avging 20 a game when Amare is getting 25
And Felton and Chandler are getting 18 each!........ Again only one ball to play with.

Melo for 15 mil as a FA sounds great...... Iggy sounds dumb! As does selling farm for Melo to extend him @ 20 mil

KNICKS on the way UP!!!

Why would he not want to resign Chandler? He is a home grown future star.

That was my first thought. I'm a big Iggy fan. He's a great bit of everything super role player but his lack of an outside shot makes him a bad fit unless MDA is gone.

Mike Miller woulda made sense here. Moves the ball well. Outside threat.
Anthony Morrow.
Dorell Wright.

What we need:

Backup PG
Quality rebounder/defender who can guard 4s/5s
Cheap sharpshooters

Jordan Farmar woulda been nice as both backup PG and decent outside threat.

Troy Murphy is soft as hell but he can actually shoot the 3 AND rebound. Weird combination. He seems to be on the downside of his career but he is a free agent after this season. Getting him on the cheap would be pretty awesome. My only worry is his defense.

His $11M salary actually perfectly matches Curry. Too bad Knicks and Nets brass hate each other or maybe Murphy could demand a trade to NY if he's not going to get any minutes under Avery Johnson.

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

I cannot understand why people think AI2 would be a bad fit here. I really cannot.

He's going to get pushed out because of Evan Turner. You can see his numbers taking a hit because of it. But this season:

14 pts on 45 FG% and 38 3p%, 7 RPG, 5 APG, 2 BPG, and 1 SPG

The Knicks NEED a legitimate perimeter threat, needs one more "go-to" layer. And he hits enough "hustle" stats where he's proven to be effective without the ball. So he would shine here without the ball, and contribute in a big way on the wing with it.

He'd also play at SG, where the team needs someone to play and excel--and at this point I'm comfortable saying the team only needs a third option. Melo appeals because Felton becomes the third option. But I'm also comfortable enough saying Amar'e is a LEGIT first option, and Felton has looked good as a second... and he's 26

AI2 also wouldn't cost too much in a trade too, because he's overpaid. But it isn't my money and he's a perfect fit on the CURRENT team. Again, I have doubts of it being a championship contender, unless one of the Yoots takes a giant step. But that is a team taht will play EVERY May and maybe get to June. Win it all? depends on some internal growth.

I would keep Wilson as well, forget about Iggy.

just a thought

With that lineup I think we could bring Marbury in as a "team chemistry" consultant. Yes, we would need two to three basketballs, which might really be where the NBA is going if Miami stays together...

I don't mind Felton with Amare, they seem to play really well together and are getting better. But to add another ball dominant person, Melo, to the mix, I'm not sure how that would work. I am open to it, but would like this team to stay together till February, then we really will know what we got. Any move made at this point will only create more questions as we don't even know what we got. Let's see Azubukakilaki come back. Let's see Randolph start to get some time. Let's see what Amare and Felton turn into. One never knows.

I'm not sure if Miami is going to make any noise at all this year...

Judging by his actions in recent years, he seems to be a different kind of "chemistry consultant".
