With all that's gone on this year. He really did a great job bringing in the right players and making the right moves. Don't see that much mention in regards to his success this year. He keeps a low profile and we don't here much from him but let us not forget him.

Novak, JR, Tyson, BD ... Oh - and LIN!!!

Extend him?

Keep it up Glenn!

How do you live with so much hate?

When there is so much anger and hate - these can seem a bit blurry.

What? Nobody wants to give him love? Or thinks he deserves kudos in all this?

Every move he has made so far looks like gold.

16-17

He get's limited love until we figure out what's wrong with Amare and win a playoff series.

What? He did not sign STAT.

The question is: has he improved the team since he came? Or, has he made it worse?

Again, he's made some great moves in Lin and Novak. One year rentals were the perfect storm it's not like he out manuevered to get JR/BD.

But, if Amare turns up lame and is giving us what we have seen Tyson Chandler (who has played very well) signing will be a disaster because we no longer have our amnesty. With 54MM tied up in three guys and another 10MM likely in Lin/Fields we would be a perenial early exit, because we won't have the ability to sign guys.

All part of Isiah's master plan!
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

I'll show him some love. Grunwald has made some good moves to help make this team more competitive. After Walsh left I was worried about who would fill the void but he's done a good job so far.

I agree about the amnesty. I've expressed my concern over this in many threads but most people believe it was worth it to get Chandler this year even though (if Amare becomes a permanent senior citizen) we could have made a run at DHoward next year.

He has made some good short term moves to get us a pretty darn good roster and for that he deserves props. However, I have siad this many times before the amnesty should have been saved for Amare. His contract is too much of a risk and will kill our cap space for years if he really is on the decline. I don't buy the idea that otherteams will just take Amare because they need to worry about he salary floor etc. That sounds pretty desperate. And I think Grunwald has been very lucky in the way things have turned out.

I give him credit for keeping Lin on the radar (Lin had apparently impressed the Knicks during pre draft work outs) then sending him and JErome J to the D-League. I also give him credit for Tyson Chandler who has singlehandedly made us better on defense. Signing Novak was a good idea. I am not sold on JR Smith yet, but he has exceeded my limited expectations in the short term. I would like to see how Grunwalds keeps the team around after this season and what he does about the Amare situation. I hope amare does find his game back, but I am not holding my breath.

TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

I agree about the amnesty, though that would probably have meant - No Tyson - and a rough year.
