If you want to see the answer, scroll down below a bit.

Answer:
All five of those players are playing playoff basketball at a high level and earlier this year they were on the NY Knicks and were dumped by our team Prez Phil Jackson!

Yup, salary dumps, silly trades...those five had to be gotten rid of to keep and make room for Bargnani, Pete Sampras, Greg Monroe, and some 19 year old draft pick kid from college.

Look at these five names again:
Amar'e
Tyson Chandler
JR Smith
Shump
Pablo

You mean to tell me we couldn't have a playoff team with those guys plus Melo!?!
Ever think that instead of dumping those guys Phil should have
A) dumped Fisher (how come he couldn't get that group to play and work well together, yet the Celtics make the playoffs with their marginal group of guys?)
or
B) dumped the triangle system that might have been hurting the team's progress instead of dumping players who are helping other teams in the playoffs

Nope, Phil keeps Fish, keeps a system that didn't fit our roster...but gets rid of five of our best players who are now doing well in the NBA playoffs. What a joke.

This thread reminds me of the one you started asking the question why this years team isn't as good as last year's team...

funny, it reminds me of the same garbage he posts all the time too.

What a clueless way to look at things. These teams were already playoff caliber teams before adding our players.

"FireWoodson" and the word clueless are synonyms.

None here could tell me why these five guys couldn't do the job here. newyorknewyork did a good job with his post ("they have less responsibility on better teams") but the rest of you took the typical Jim Dolan spin approach: "things will be better next year...Phil knows what he's doing...Fish is a future Hall Of fame coach...Galloway should win MVP of the league this year..." Quit watching Dolan mind-control "Knicks Post Game" and start thinking for yourself.

People, we were f..ked over royally this year! I see OUR PLAYERS doing well in the playoffs right now for other teams! And you here want to make excuses for getting rid of those five players. No wonder the Garden still sells out even with a sh!t team. You fans buy any bullcrap Dolan tells you and any bullcrap Dolan puts on the court for you.

Wake up, b-ball people! Five of our ex-players are suiting up for playoff games while our current players are suiting up for a Garden Of Dreams prom!
