"Weird Science": Take KVH and Gallo and stick them into a blender and you have Barg's!

League needs to cancel this as they have the Draft in NYC and between Brooklyn and Knicks no one got any pics left!

(I know, can't trade consecutive picks!)

Good thing Ted Septian lived, otherwise Isiah would have them traded!

I like how fans can be so comforted by having cap space in two years. We can build around JR then!

Former lotto pick with injury history, overpaid, and under achieved!

One can almost Dolan ranting thru the castle demanding an explanation in response to the Celtic/nets trade: "How did this happen" and "Bring me the one they call isiah and bring me a name!!!!!"

1- Would Toronto not accept the deal for 1 1st round pick and giving us back a 2nd round pick?

2- Copeland already showed he could have played in NYK when given the opportunity but Woodson DOES NOT PLAY HIM for the same reason I don't think Bargs will play

3- Ryan Kelly (late 2nd round pick), BJ Mullens (UFA), and or Copeland could outplay Bargs at a much lower rate without giving up assets, also wonder if there was even interest in the league from other teams for DPOY in Chandler

4- What do you do if Melo opts out and demands MAX money starting at over 20m per season next summer or leaves for NOTHING?

5- Our greatest need is to add 2 quality PG's, now that we payed the price with assets and contracts that could land us a decent PG, how do we fill the position we need MOST?
We need penetration/facilitating and a PG that could STAY IN FRONT OF PG's MOST

6- For the picks we gave up, we can possibly even trade Amare for a shorter bad contract, possibly even add 3 quality players like Brandon Rush, PG's in Twolves like Ridnour (at least Barea), and another solid player
This is just a HORRIBLE move financially as we had much cheaper options and players we could have targeted with the assets we used

They are trying to keep Melo.

Grunwald is doing what he said he would.

Adding to the core. If we bring everyone back we are a better team plain and simple.

Anubis, your reply does not justify any of the above, there simply is no market for Barg's and there was a good chance that he would even get amnestied and he we could sign him with a vet min contract, instead we pay top value for him
What does Ujsuri have on us in trades?

Camby and Novak are top value? Come on man.

Yea it sucks trading the pick but we got a serviceable player for 2 useless players.

At very least we got a rotational big which allows us more flexibility with the MMLE.

Camby gets to retrace his career. Weird.

Novak is a roll player whom Bargs fills very nicely.

Thank god we cant trade consecutive picks or we would never make a pick in the draft. They should name that rule after the Knicks.

Did they trade this years pick and 2future 2nd rounders. If so, I got no beef. No one had Timmy JR making a difference and Dolan has shown that he will buy 2nd rounders no problem so, this is not really an Isiah type move after all. Isiah would have traded numerous unprotected 1st round pick while making moves that were sure to make us a lottory team. Not even close to an Isiah move because it doesn't in itself hurt the franchise for years to come.
