the way it is going with this team, there is no such thing as time.. We are garbage and it annoys me as a fan when I see no movement what so ever from the front office....

Deadline is approaching. Wait and see if anything happens before handing out more grades. I also would have liked to see a few 10 day contracts, try some guys out, but there's still plenty of time.

How about the team wasn't very good to start the season with and it would be in the teams' best long term interests to be sellers here, if we can.
Its just a mix match mess. I mean coming back from 15 in the last 5 minutes against Miami looks snazzy, but the fact of the matter is we were down BIg late

dont you notice that in many, many games we are down double digits?

i dont think we have blown out 1 team all year, we had a few comfortable wins, thats it.

With 30 games left, just to get to .500, the Knicks would have to go, the team would have to go 22-8. Does this team look like it's ready to go 22-8? or more like 8-22?

Marbury's time down the stretch needs to be cut to 35 minutes and just let the Ls flow. Its better for this organization to lose as many as possible.

this whole gig that you need to win to save face and create some kind of fake aura is just that BECAUSE we dont have the right set of players!!!!!!!!!!!

Briggs! I agree with you completely. I never liked the trade for Crawfford. I always wished that we had gone after Larry Hughes and Haywood instead. I was happy that we got JYD with the deal, but look at how horrible we are at the SG position. I think that it is time to move away from the idea of having Houston coming back healthy. That notion has been a bad idea for two years now. We have to do something, and do it fast. Isiah should offer Houston a front office position and force him to retire. He is hurting us in many ways.......And as for Dolan, he needs to stay away from the players. He is a freaking owner, and he needs to stay in his lane...

I agree. We don't need him......I don't know where our help going to come from...We don't have one guy in our squad that can actually take over the game...Marburry can, but not with this low talented team....

I like Finley, but I don't want him here. He's turning 32 next month and is owed about 67M for another 3 years after this season. These are the kind of deals we have to stay away from.

BRIGGS is right. This team was never good to begin with.

That's why I think it's a good thing that we have so many injured players. Craw, Nazr, TT, H20, and I guess Marbury as well. The more we lose the better player we will get in the draft, possibly a franchise player.

I say NO to Finley and Eric Williams. Both are 32 yrs old, and we don't need to add vets. We need to go after a possible future centerpiece of the team and that's thru the draft at this stage. No need to acquire more vets, we need to get rid of them for more picks/youth.

There will not be a franchise player available until the next three years...The Knicks need to groom their own...Isiah is good enough to judge talents...That is why he should try to accumulate as many picks as possible. Trade Nazr, Kurt, TT, Penny, for garbage players, but be sure to get draft picks in return...

And that brings up the question... Who are the franchise players in this year's draft?
