I agree. Leave Nazr alone. He is a hard worker and has proven that he has the talent and heart to start for the Knicks. Maybe if he starts posing and screaming after each dunk he will be deemed untoachable by the fans. Go figure.
why do people think moving Nazr for a guy like Dalembert is a sign of disrespect? Its the other way around.
Every year since Ewing left Knick fans say the same thing...
Why cant *we* make a trade like Indy did for Jermaine Oneil
Why cant we get a guy like Ben Wallace
Why cant we get a guy like Brad Miller
Why cant we get a guy like Zach Randolph, or Theo Ratliff or any of these other bigmen who are major impact players and come up through the woodwork?
Maybe its because you dont want to trade Nazr?
Wake up people.. PLEASE. Dalembert's a season away from being a 23 year old Dikembe Mutumbo. But in a couple years when he's averaging 12/12 and 4 blocks a game will you still be excited about having a 30 year old Nazr?
Dalembert is in a different physical class than Nazr, its not about showmanship or any of that crap, plus Sam has shown he can play at a high level for an extended period of time. Not only would I trade Nazr for Dalembert, but I would take bad contract(s) back.
