I am sitting here watching Nazr being very successful playing for a good team like San Antonio...He did a decent job while he was with the Knicks. I never wanted to see him go, instead I wanted Kurt out of town. As usual, since Kurt arrival to the Knicks, all of the more decent players have been the ones leaving instead...McDyess for instance was one of them, I am sick and tired of that. Isiah needs to undo all of the wrong that have been done around here...I am sick and tired of being sick and tired...Kurt has to go...Find us another Nazr because we have an excellent opportunity do draft a player similar..

So far, two of the guys that Isiah has traded are in the final playing pretty well....two guys that were picked to provide some toughness for our frontcourt....Isiah please, bring us a different new look at the frontcourt...

Are you trying to imply that we should have stuck it out with McDyss?

He was traded in a deal for a star in his prime. Dice is 10 pppg off the bench, what are youtalking about? I mean I'm glad he looks decent now, but he is a bench role player, here he would have been a starter and a sub par one at that. No thank you.

Wrong my friend...I don't regret the fact that we have Marburry at all. I pointed out McDyess name because I would much rather have what he can offer than what Kurt has to give....I am just sick and tired of Kurt thomas..

Okay, I understand that, but we turned him into Starbury, so thats how you have to look at it. If we can land big Z we can trade KT for anything, a sf, a pick, anything.

I agree with that. I don't even want anything in return for Kurt...Just the empty space will do us good..

Akindale can be as good as Nazr, many other bigs can be as good as Nazr...We just have to invest all of our assets to get a dude as good

Dido, another anti KT rant? Watching Nazr do well is becasue he stepped into a system that works. Good players get better on good teams. We had-have good players, just not coached-constructed properly.

I agree with that....But, I am still against Kurt returning to be our freaking starting PF or Center when we have younger much more athletic cats that can give us the same production but help improve our defense.

Diderotn: Re: Akindale....how could you possibly know that a 6'9" guy who is the most raw prospect in the draft can be as good as Nazr. Nazr is good, if unspectacular, rotational big man. Akindale may end up flipping burgers.

I have no problem w/ KT returning as either our starting PF or C as long as his partner in the frontcourt comes in with a different skill set.

KT would be a very good big man on a good team. Unfortunately, we've had major coaching instability for a while now... and we've had numerous shakeups in our cast of players.

Going back to McDyess... had we not made the trade, we could have had Amare and Camby as our athletic PF/C combination. Sick. But then we wouldn't have had the goods to make a lot of the other trades.

And of course, under the Knicks unstable system, who knows if Amare would have emerged into the superstar he is today.

I am tired of hearing you fans talking about what we could have had..the fact remains that we are a very mediocre team, and the only way to remedy this sickness is through careful drafting...I am sorry, I despise the trade for Crawfford from the first place, I wish that we went after another player instead, because Craw is not yet ready and may never be ready...If we were to get a draft pick from Chicago to go along with the deal, I would have applaude it...Look we need to think about the future, not the past. I like Isiah's approach, but I am growing impatient base on the fact that we don't have a real teacher in the house to really coach our boys...I am willing to endure a couple of bad seasons, but we must have a coach around that can fully improve our fundamentals...

I think Crawford's value as a top-notch 6th man, backup combo guard is pretty decent. We'll actually get our money's worth that way by not forcing Crawford to be the SG he's not, but 39% shooting, 180LB, natural PG as our starting SG alongside Marbury will only hurt our chemistry and lead to more disappointing 30win seasons.
