I was just talking over with my friend about the Knicks' awfulness these days and we devised a plan, give me some feedback. (Some things will be fairly radical, please keep that in mind):
-They bite the bullet for this season and get a decent draft pick.
-Trade Marcus Camby for a top 5 pick, using that pick to get Drew Gooden.
-Using our draft pick and hoping either a.) Stern helps us or b.) We get lucky, we somehow manage to land Jason Williams or if Chris Duhon is coming out, him.
-A sign-and-trade with the Clips sending Sprewell to them and getting Lamar Odom.
-Knicks start Jason Williams, Allan Houston, Lamar Odom, Drew Gooden, and Kurt Thomas in 2002-2003.
-The Knicks target the 2004 and 2005 offseasons when Mark Jackson, Travis Knight, Charlie Ward, and Kurt Thomas would become free agents. We let them walk and sign a big time free agent and also, the contracts of Fred Weis, LJ, Luc Longley, and Vernon Maxwell will no longer be counting against them.
Now, I know this is incredibly radical and not very planned out since I just came up with it in 5 minutes, but Layden has to devise a plan something like this and have some sort of goal for this team and get them out of mediocrity. Also, in 2004 offseason, most draft picks from last year will be free agents, so the Knicks could be looking at the likes of a fully developed Pau Gasol, Tyson Chandler, Kwame Brown, Eddy Curry, and Eddie Griffin (from NJ). Please don't take this literally but do tell me what you think of it and refine the parts that are most unlikely.
