I was really not against MDA until last year when they were getting killed defensively and (among other things) he refused to play Brewer.

On this board many were extremely upset and many said "who cares, its corey Brewer".

Well ... corey brewer turned out to be a very good player. Did not make any sense.

Jordan Hill - people wanna say he is a stiff, maybe he is but he is certainly playing much much better. Tonight, the stats don't show it but he was the only Laker big who actually played well and played excellent defense. I can understand why MDA did not play him - not sure about the trade though.

There are rare exceptions like Jeffries but MDA only has 1 amnesty for a defensive player on his teams

Wow - you are so anti Denver!!

This has nothing to do with Denver - it has to do with the Stubbornness/Thick-headedness of MDA

for what it's worth, dallas signed him to a three year deal and then waived him after the knicks let him go. sometimes a player needs to get to the right place to succeed. but the fact that the knicks never even took a look at him was astounding.

You act like he had a carerer year in Denver. The guy put up the same stats he does year in year out.

That is true too. Nobody made him, he made himself. Pity it was not seen.

he got a three year deal. We drafted Shump.

If you get brewer we no get JR smith. Or maybe it was novak? Or maybe no room for Lin?

Ill take any of those three over Brewer. WE needed our guys this year. Brewer is a nice player but lets not lose ourselves.

Brewer was cap fodder.

This is funny. I guess another subpar post season outing by Melo's Knicks while the Knick "spare parts" he was traded for are doing what he never could... win games vs. the Lakers.

HIGH larious

I love the knocks on MDA. Thank god we had the injuries to deflect responsibility from the players.

Until we get some more spare parts to cover Melo's shortcomings you can expect what you saw from the Nuggs... some allstar games and lots and lots of first round exits.
