I am not sure what you are looking for, a white flag? The Knicks are rebuilding and if they get it right thing should be good.

You think we can sure up on every other position, and have a guy like larkin, felton, calderone, prigioni, or some other below avg pg and it wouldn't matter, will be fine.The Knicks already have a really good back court defender in Galloway. Great point. The plan is to continue to improve the teams defense not only on the interior but also on the perimeter. In the Triangle you can get away with a 3nD PG since the system doesn't rely on a ball dominant PG. They can't be as bad as TD was but they don't have to be PG wizards in order to have a good role in this offense. Fisher being a case in point. I like Galloway and I think he's an example of the kind of tough nosed players Phil likes. |

For me, the best combination of stats I want when building my team from the offensive perspective is a combination of True Shooting percentage and actually, fouls drawn. Arguably, TS% already includes fouls drawn by turning 2pt plays into 3 point plays, but a guy like Deandre Jordan's TS% will not really show how many fouls he drew cause he misses his free throws A TON. That said, I am fine with that percentage to the extent that the fouls he draws ends up putting the opposing big man on the bench. Defensively, every player has to be considered a strong defender in order to overcome Melo's weaknesses on defense. I love your WS/48 list. Have you seen any correlation between WS/48 and contract pricing? What do you see Green getting on the FA market? He has much better stats than Carroll, but I am guessing his contract is going to be $10MM to $12MM vs the $6MM to $8MM that Carroll appears to be headed for. This is the Randle.

I'm not sure what Green's market value is. Given that it's free agency we're talking about he's gonna get some good money, but I don't think he'll be a max player. My guess is $9-12 mil. Green has been excellent value for the Spurs his contract for 2014-15 is only $4,025,000. My guess is there aren't a lot of team's that will be willing to pay a fortune for a guy like Green who is considered a role player. I also like Carroll so whichever way we end up going i'd be fine with either guy. |

Check out Eddie when he gets to the money rack. This kid is definitely someone the Knicks should look into.

This kid may be the reason Danny Green ends up a Knick. The Spurs always have guys in the pipeline. I was kind of hoping we could pilfer Cory Joseph from them too. |

At least one former NBA player thinks that’s a bad idea. The way your thinking of building is old school foundation, play in an out is a style of the 90's. I mean how many bigs do you see in the post. PF's are working on the 3 point shots more than anything. If you don't have at least 3 to 4 players on the floor at all times thats can shoot a respectable clip from downtown, your not going far. It has been in almost every commentators convo about the direct of the league. ES

At least one former NBA player thinks that’s a bad idea. The Knicks are aware of this. They have been working with their bigs on extending their range. We had Bargs who already could shoot from distance but they had Jason and Acy work on extending their range. They know this helps to spread the floor. |
