that we will have baker back + possibly doelac hey we have the same team back! just what i said --we are going to be slogging along for a few years.

well hopefully they find lightning in a bottle in the SL and keep a strong eye on other teams SL--marquis daniels anyone???


You know Id rather be pro-active with KT and see if I can pull off an Arron Mckie AND top 5 protected #1 pick in 2005 for KT---give more PT to Sweetney Nazr Doleac?? and while we have them utilize Deke Othella etc.. we're still seep there.


Id look for ONLY a steal up to the trade deadline-otherwise just let some of those contracts run out-- if someone wants an ending contract, take a player with only 2 years remaining + a pick that would be substantial -something that would fall 8-16


with 2-3 good solid picks 34mm in ending contracts--which some we get let expire--over the next two years we can drop payroll quite considerably and add 1-2 high quality young players and perhaps one solid VET max player we really want--not settling for the Tim Thomas of the world.

ending contracts will get a ton of value as the trading deadline appraoches. Teams that will have missed their season may want to save some cash.

I'd be happy to bring back the dole and see how we perform as we are.

We'll have big changes over the next 2 yrs, but we'll have to be patient as we can't have it all right now.

it's dissapointing knowing that your team--for all intensive purposes is just being built so they can make the playoffs win 43 times as a conduit to raise prices again. When I see a team filled with athletiscm size IQ toughness and heart--no matter the ultimate outcome of win or lose--because we had that type of team for 10-12 years and we came real close--but you can never really predict the end result-- than I will let you know. When I see some toughness like Oakley gerg anthony starks mason mcdaniel etc...then I will let you know. right now all i see is a team that is mismatched with no identity aging quickly with VERY little heart and toughness. teams that win are tough this team is full of wimpy aging overpaid blah. put it this way--just with okafor the charlotte Bobcats have a better team foundation than the Knicks entire squad.

Briggy does this each year, but he is more right than downright depressed.

We internet posters can spend Dolans money all we want, but we are so far over the cap its a joke. We again will be the top salary team and in my opinion, that honor should go to a team stacking talent to make a run. Not to make the playoffs.

We need to pay for this sometime, and we are so easy to assume we can pawn bad contracts for even longer ones and never dissolve this mess.

Its not so bleak, but we are handcuffed to an extent and Isiah if he says much, is to temper the thought that blockbusters are a comin!

Its a shame we don't have any assets to be a player in all thats going on. Its not Isiahs fault, for now, it just is our reality.

isiah's main goal should be to find an arenas find a marquis daniels find a starks find a mason---thats showing a LOT and with our payment structure we need it.

The problem Layden and Dolan made was locking up marginal undeserving talent with the MLE- Anderson, Eisley & Weatherspoon- when they should have just eaten the MLE

Let it go man, just let it go. There is a lot of things we should have eaten a long time ago. It just was not the way we did things back then. So long as we are not history repeating, Im ok to just let this team be or make any changes without adding more to the payroll.

Let it go.

I think its so early to start making doomsday pronouncements

It's never too early for Briggs to make doomsday pronouncements

i've said it before and i'll say it again...the Knicks will not be good until H20, Penny and Shandon are off this team
