. Tweet yesterday from former Nuggets shooting guard J.R. Smith, who had been playing in China this season: "I wonder what it's like to play on broadway? #hmmmmm!" Smith, of course, is an unrestricted free agent. Once his team's season ends, he will be eligible to sign with any NBA team. The Knicks, who still have their "room exception," are believed to be among teams interested.

James Dolan really needs to teach a class at a university called Starphucking 490: Advanced Starphucking.

Who said he's talking about NY & the Garden? It's on 7th Avenue. I'm not sure I care about who they bring on this team anymore, I'm more interested in who will eventually go.

i think JR Smith would be a good addition here. he can shoot from outside, though he's streaky, i think he shot like 44% from 3 one recent season in denver.
and he can penetrate the lane and defend. i used to be in favor of adding kmart, but given how shallow and awful our backcourt has been, i'd sign JR. imagine if our starting lineup looks like this come march 15th or so, giving a six week cram course for the playoffs: PG - Baron Davis Bench: Iman at PG, Toney at SG, Fields at SF, Jorts at PF, Jeffries at roving whatever whatever. in case of emergency, Bill Walker and Mike Bibby That's a quality rotation Sign JR. I think he has an edge this team could actually use. a little nastiness. a little competiveness. that's what i like about adding JR or Kmart. this team needs a little nasty to it. ¿ △ ?

I don't understand this idea of the Knicks Starscrewing. JR isn't a star! He'd be coming here as a good role player. We wouldn't be sacrificing anything to bring him in, so what's with the dissing of this possible move? What do you expect the team to do, just sit on their hands? Who do you bring in? MOST of our roster has good guys on it. So he's a strange guy. So long as he plays well and helps the team win I don't see why you don't give it a try. What's the risk?
The whole idea is to either develop your own or sign a current star player to form the core of your team. We've elected to go with paying for our stars, but it's still a valid means to an end. The only mistake is not securing a quality PG to start for this team. JR or Kmart are solid moves to add to a team that needs depth. |
