he can't be that expensive,

tyson for pekovic straight up

We can't. Pekovic is a free agent so we'd have to sign-and-trade for him but we're too far over the luxury tax and can't receive players in sign-and-trades.

that's really bad,

let's try to get him within the next 3 years

Don't make our immediate future look so grim, we did ok this yr, and the playoffs is not all talent and depth, it involves a bit of LUCK and every coach in every sport will tell you that..

deceptive regular season success this year, this is a sub 50 win team even this season, but they got very hot and rode the horse to the pony show,

their essence is below 50, but sometimes there will be some things that will stick on the wall and the true face of the beast is shown when it is difficult going

The team was different and showed a lot of heart through adversity. We need Tyson to come back w a move or two. We need two good players from the draft. One a ph one a big. And we can get perimeter help from top d leaguers or foreign players who's games have matured. A healthy Shumpert Weill give them a second offensive cog

You are what your record is. We would have been no match for Miami as the record did show. We were competitive with the Pacers despite a greatly diminished Tyson due to in season injury and illness and a puzzling ineffective showing by JR. If we were as bad as you say, we should have had a close series in Boston(possibly losing) and gotten swept by the Pacers.

The Knicks played about as well as they could of this season. Next year though the Pacers will be better , so will the Bulls. Im sorry but I cant say the same about the Knicks. This roster has no flexibility and players leaving their prime. Meanwhile the Pacers have 2 emerging stars that are 26 and 23 plus a huge trade chip in Grainger.I hate to be a downer but I just dont see how this team can get better then the HEAT,Pacers or Bulls. The answers I get is Chandler comes back with an offensive game.Carmelo and JR become less unselfish. These guys are 30 years old they arent redefining their games into better players now.

And we can also draft the ROY at 24!

We can also draft a complete bust - but I guess you were being sarcastic? But it's safe to assume whatever rookie we draft won't see in playing time under our "coach".
Our window got closed last year. Now we will repeat last year and there will be the usual chest thumping during the regular season and then we will lose in the playoffs again.
