First and foremost, we should not be looking at Vince Carter. Overalll he is just not what we need although he is obviously extremely talented. But you should only go aftert a talent that you don't need when it comes cheap and he definitely wont come cheap.

We should be looking at big men who can post up well and/or play defense and rebound well.

If we are going to take a chance it should be on a young 6-10 and up player who is developed or who has potential.

heres is who I think Isiah should be looking at:

Eddy Curry- obviously he has the potential to be better than Shaq!
Yeah I said it and I meant it too. yes I ould give up sweets for him because sweets is a 6-9 talent which is much easier to come by

TYson Chandler- If he can stay healthy he has a tremendous upside still. Even as a 10 10 guy he is tall and lanky and could block many shots as well. he should it the weights though.

Brendan Haywood- 7 foot, good hands youung and I think the staff we have could help him really develop.

Samuel Dalembert- tall athletic young and probably difficult to acquire but I like him and we could use him.

Sharif Abdul Rahim- a true post player. He would be a perfect fit for us right now because we sorely lack that aspect of the game. Few in the league possess his repoitoire and portland really doesn't need him because they have Zach Randolph. We should try and get him maybe with a 3 team trade. We could not lose nazr trying to get him though. Him and nazr as a part of the knicks would be sick considering what else we already have going on.

What do you all think of this and who else do you guys think we could or should be trying to acquire?

I almost spit out my coffee. Where's your brain?

Guys like Chamberlain, Alcindor, Ewing, Shaq ... everyone knew they were going to be great players when they were entering high school. They were pegged to be great WAY before they entered the league.

Curry has been in the league for years now. He will improve, and can probably become good enough to be a starter on a contender, but he will never .... EVER .... be anywhere in the same zipcode as Shaq. Get real, get off the pipe.

I can imagine how nice a Marbury-Camby connection would be!
Does anybody remember the '96-'97 rookie game? Marbury to
Camby alley-oops galore! Now THERE is an athletic duo!

I'd add Nene and Kwame Brown to that list.

#1 on my list is kwame brown.
washington has a glut at the PF/C position.

jamison, haywood, etan, brown.

all of them are signed to long term deals except brown (who's still on his rookie deal).

getting him will be tough but i think he's definitely worth it.

kwame turned down $65 for 7? wow, that's balls right there.
now this is where tim and penny could be useful next offseason.

tim + #1 for kwame in a sign and trade

not for nothing but vince is still a superstar.
he's a whiny little baby, but if he gets traded, whoever gets him will land a stud b/c he's going to prove to everyone that he's 1/2 man 1/2 amazin'. his #'s are weird this year b/c it's true, they rarely run the offense through him. i've watched a bunch of toronto games on league pass and they have this weird offense where nobody gets featured on offense. that's why bosh hasn't blown up yet b/c he doesn't get it enough in the post.

i'm not sure if it would work with marbury tho b/c steph needs the ball in his hands but i have no problems getting vince if it doesn't cost us ariza or sweetney.
