The Knicks need someone to take a stand and bring some stability. Woodson needs to coach this squad and stick to a game plan not adjust to each team as they go....

The new President has to make a trade to force Woodson to do so....it doesn't have to be a block buster deal....but the Knicks need to look to reinforce our holes.

We need a point guard that can attack....Felton isn't doing that and playing Priggy extended minutes doesn't give us the one two punch we need.

Bobby Brown would have been perfect....in hind sight. Beno is being wasted right now. Amare needs to be shut down or put out there to play legit minutes every day not spot minutes when the doctors feel it's ok....chemistry is down because of it.

What can we do to stabilize this roster?

"We" can't do anything. I doubt Mills is on the phones doing trade things. Thats Mark Winkydink job and isn't John Gabriel on the payroll?

As far a pleading for Amare to step up or retire, Really???? They guy is done and the plan is to play him back until he gets hurt again. Kicking the can down the road.

You'v been "Hinting" to whom?

As far as fixing this roster or adding some stability, that may be an off season job....a lot of restructuring..

He's a threat to double-double every night, is that supposed to be impressive? Any competent big man in the league is a "threat to double-double" he's nothing special. Besides, Faried's double doubles are of the 10pts 10rbs variety, not the 20pt 15rb kind. He's not that good.

I like Faried, but i think Shumpert is the one piece that can help acquire an all-star, packaged with our big expiring contracts when the time comes, if that is the route we choose as a team.

Who would that be? What all star is dangling right now? Amare and Shump for who? Shump and Bargs for who? I'm just asking.... Torontos Rudy Gay? Who else is possibly available?

I would look to Denver and try to get Nate and Faried. It's not a blockbuster per say, but in terms of giving this team what they need to Stablize itself this works big time. I would start priggy and jr and have Nate and Beno off the bench. Front court we could start Faried and Melo with Bargs until Chandler comes back. Then we don't have to play the game with KMart and Amare. We would have reloaded a bit and Stabilized everything.

And you guys like to get on me.

by time we have any expiring deals shump will be close to the end of his rookie deal, so what do you think happens? he will want more money? will teams see him as a bargain still?

really? well here is the list.. Dwight, David lee, Aski, Vujaveic, Zach, hickson and Horford..

the next group of guys close to avg a double/ double, who were over 9 boards per but not quite 10..

Cousins, monroe, Faried, Tristian Thompson, Al jefferson, Lamarcus Aldridge..

Pretty good company.. So it is not just any competent big man.. these guys are above and beyond competent..

and you could not get any of them just by trading shumpert... The end!!!

This might be a poignant argument IF Faried actually averaged a double-double, which he has never done.
