Better D than Nazr ... that's damning with faint praise. Doleac gets about as much out of his limited athleticism as he can, but again, faint praise. Just not quick enough to play with athletic bigs, imo. He gets beat in the post too often, and, even worse, gets beat to rebounds because of his lack of quickness. At least he fights for post position tho, unlike Nazr.

I feel you on that....

Regardless of his skill level he still fits into what the Knicks are trying to do.

The Knicks really can be a legit team next year. I like the idea of having a mix of young big men on the team that all do different things.

I would be nice to sign or trade for Dampier...but the Knicks would be wrong not to put Crawford first on the list. He's just too much of a talent not to try and get him. Would the Knicks be able to get both Dampier and Crawford?

If that were to happen one would have to be traded. It would be great to trade for both.

Check out this roster:
Sweets
Timmy
Dampier
Marbs
Houston

Crawford, Nazr, Doleac, Moochie, Penny....

that roster would leave plenty of space for Barrett, Herve, Ariza, Chan to take turns coming off of the DL.

I would really love to root for that roster. It has a good potential to gel in my opinion of course.

for the LLE? Dice would be a bargain...but i doubt he would sign a LLE contract.

i'd rather have Doleac than Baker though.
