They have some interviews posted that have some scrimmage action in them. Nice to see the team actually practicing together. If you look at the Tyson Video you can see a bit of Iman and he looks good out there. Moving with confidence. They even show him stroking a jumper. Just good to see Knicks basketball again. I look forward to seeing more and more of these videos.

I called Chandler to be out target last year and made many post about it. After Dallas won their Championship, it seemed unlikely that we can grab a true center of his caliber.

Matt Gasol
Deandre Jordon

looks like they will be retained by both their teams.

I am happy Tyson Chandler is here, I think he is going to be contagious. The presence he solidifies in the middle, protecting the paint, can help build team work , and chemistry.
With Amare and Melo, taking majority of the shots, I actually would like us to move the ball with the rest of the shots.
Whoever, is hot, and whoever has the mismatch, let the team work it out.

I like the way TD plays and he can go off and hit many 3's with good looks and ball movement.
Tyson Chandler is a big boy and he sets nice screens, he causes a lot of mismatches with the picks and him rolling after.

Dirk
Terry
Barea

were Dallas 3 main options, most of the time but Marion and Kidd could also get hot. And Kidd didn't shoot much at times, but he shot effectively from good % on 3pters n free throws.
I remember when Kidd, couldn't create, no longer having the penetration and quickness he once did.
Barea came in and used the pick n roll, hitting jumpers, penetration and finishing, and penetrating dishing in or out.

Ak47, I wonder if the 2.5 exemption or biannual would be enough to attract him here?
Shawne Williams, what is the hold up that we can't resign someone that wants to be here.

Do you guys feel we should pick one of these 2 with Ak47/Shawne Williams? or to sign em both?

It doesn't look like we can even trade with Atlanta at this point, which I don't want to roll the dice with Crawford anyway.
However, adding another guard that can run could be helpful in this shortened seasons.

Barea, doesn't look like hes coming for 2.5 mill either?

I don't mind adding either player between Barea, although I prefer Barea, or Crawford.
However, I don't want to give up TD and def not Iman, for either player.

If we don't add any guards and can add Ak47 and Shawne Williams I wouldn't be upset at all.

PG Iman/TD/Bibby
SG Fields/Walker/Shawne
SF Melo/Shawne/Ak47/JJ
PF Amare/Ak47/JJ/Jorts
C Chandler/Jorts/Ak47/JJ/Jordan

Iman
Fields
Melo
Amare
Chandler

TD
Shawne Williams ?????
Ak47 ?????
Jorts
JJ
Walker
Bibby
Jordan
Balkman
1 spot left.....3 spots without Shawne Williams and Ak47

I like AK47's versatility, shot blocking, length, and quickness for his size.
Problem is, he has a history of injuries the the past couple of years
I like his style of play and the combination of Chandler and him could be deadly.
ic him more as a lanky and still some athleticism and PF/C. Still can be used at times at SF, only because Chandler is out center.

I cant wait till we finish our roster for this year and FA in the summer lol

Thanks for posting that link- what I like is that all of our players seem to be in good shape- even Bill Walker looks to have slimmed down, Melo has slimmed down, TD and Fields have put on some muscle (TD especially)- considering what happened last lockout, these guys have done a good job staying in shape which is vital considering the shortened training camp.

To think we used to worry about how fat JJ and Curry would be when training camp started- I'm glad we seem to have some actual hard working professionals now- hopefully it'll pay off!

that vid and the other Media Day Videos are on the MSG/Knicks site.
the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt
