Got some work stuff going on this morning, so this is what you get for now. I may add more later, I may not. If I was smart, I would have done a post last night when I got home. I wasn't smart.
There was also an article on Roto Arcade about how Amar'e has "lost his way". But it also said that he isn't being used the way he was used in the past. I haven't seen a whole lot of Knicks games, but I think I said this a few weeks ago; they're not a deep team and this season, being deep is gonna help a lot. I think they've got a real thin lineup even for a normal season.
And I didn't understand why they let go of Chauncey. Their main problem is PG and he was the only good PG on the roster. Nice move. Worked out for the Clippers tho.
He had a great year last year. I think it's more about Carmelo and how he dominates the ball. Nash has the ball but he distributes, Melo has the ball and scores.
"they had to move chauncey to be able to afford Chandler"
Dolan had like a $140 million payroll about six years ago, and they played about the same. They didn't "have" to move chauncey to afford Chandler. They thought he was old and overpaid. Like many of their moves in the last few years, they were wrong.
sucks that bev didn't outlast those bitches, but she did win last chance kitchen so maybe she will get to beat them there and even better, return to the competition. anyone know when that person gets to come back
with the new CBA, they couldn't sign chandler though.
it wasn't about affording him, it was about going over the salary cap.
If they thought chauncey was old, they shouldn't have exercised his option at the end of last year to pay him $14m or whatever (that they still have to pay him)
Bottom line, the Knicks salaries are a mess. What are they gonna do in 2014? They'll have 3 guys signed (Melo, Amare and Chandler) and they're gonna be over the cap just with those three guys. So they're gonna be bad for a long time, because much like now, they can only sign minimum guys and one mid-level (which is all they can offer Nash), unless they can free up cash by trading Amare. But if he keeps playing poorly like he's playing now (which is caused by Melo) no one will want to take on that contract.
CP3 to the Knicks looks more and more like a pipe-dream. They don't have room for him. The only way they get better is if they make smart decisions in the draft (which they haven't done), convince Nash to take a mid-level (and he's gonna be 38 pretty soon) and hope everyone stays healthy and maybe they can make a run in 2014/15, but they still have to play defense to make it anywhere in the playoffs. Then they start all over again in 2015 (where, right now, they have $0 in owed salary).
I agree extending Chauncey last year was probably a bad move, but the reason they kept them then was to avoid the problem they have now; they don't have a PG to play Dantony ball. So they should have figured something out then, but they didn't.
To ditch him to sign a guy that has a long history of injuries, and who, even when healthy is a good (not great) player, I just don't get. You fix a problem by causing another. And, like most Knicks off-seasons, they let the available free-agent market dictate their roster. Chandler's the only center available this year? And he just had his best year in last three years? Sure, let's lock him up for four years.
"That's what I said, but even if they get a PG, everyone is going to be standing around for 1/3 of the plays because Melo is a chucker"
he's a great player, but this was frustrating as hell when he was here. They'd be moving the ball having a great offensive game, then 4th quarter would come and he'd just hold the ball and try and be the hero.
"not really, I mean i bag on the heat, but they share the ball for the most part."
When Wade plays, maybe, but when I was watching a Heat game the other night, they were saying that the reason for their 3-game losing skid a couple of games ago was because there was too much iso, and Lebron was the problem. Watching that game you could see it, no one was cutting and everyone was chucking. And they were losing.
It's not stuffed up like it used to always be. But it's still swolled up inside and there are still stitches in there that I'm waiting for them to dissolve

i like ron paul because his name reminds me of a pornstar name
maybe just because of ron jeremy
not enough rons in the world though
my grandpa always told me to never trust a guy with a last name that's a first name, like ron paul
but then our last name became popular these days as a first name so i'm too confused.
rob lowe is the new chris mortensen
but then our last name became popular these days as a first name for gay guys so i'm too confused.

I think it's Moyer's goal to play until he's 50, I think he'll turn 50 this season
oh to be a left handed pitcher
really oh to be any pitcher

amare was product of Steve Nash...take away a hof point guard and he's basically kwame brown
And I didn't understand why they let go of Chauncey. Their main problem is PG and he was the only good PG on the roster. Nice move. Worked out for the Clippers tho.
KWAME!!!!
they had to move chauncey to be able to afford Chandler
thought they were too soft on the front line because their PF and SF don't believe in defense.

He had a great year last year. I think it's more about Carmelo and how he dominates the ball. Nash has the ball but he distributes, Melo has the ball and scores.

"After 562 runs, receptions and kickoff returns in his four-year NFL career, Green-Ellis still hasn't fumbled."
O:FB with the long con, it's comin
i would punch green-ellis in the ovaries if I ever met him
chauncey is old and is not worth 14mm
they keep saying wait until boom dizzle is ready
luckily the east is trash
amare was not a product of nash
he's a beast
but he needs a pg because of his pick and roll game
melo dont play that he's an iso player
amare was 7-22, melo was 5-22 last night
in the end, poor shooting loses games and when you cant turn to a scorer off the bench it hurts
especially this year with the condensed schedule
d'antoni always runs a tight bench he only employs 8 players max
and only chandler plays defense, melo only plays defense when he is scoring or during national TV games
they had to cut billups per new CBA rules (like blue said, signing Chandler forced that)
i hate toney douglas
"amare was not a product of nash
he's a beast"
KWAME BROWN!!!!
amare has no post game, he's a slasher, a pick and roll guy and an offensive rebounds guy
he's not patrick ewing where you can clear out a side and throw him the ball
Bottom line, the Knicks salaries are a mess. What are they gonna do in 2014? They'll have 3 guys signed (Melo, Amare and Chandler) and they're gonna be over the cap just with those three guys.

Then they start all over again in 2015 (where, right now, they have $0 in owed salary).
"melo dont play that he's an iso player"
That's what I said, but even if they get a PG, everyone is going to be standing around for 1/3 of the plays because Melo is a chucker.
"amare has no post game, he's a slasher, a pick and roll guy and an offensive rebounds guy"
he has a jumpshot

I agree extending Chauncey last year was probably a bad move, but the reason they kept them then was to avoid the problem they have now; they don't have a PG to play Dantony ball. So they should have figured something out then, but they didn't.

starks sucks
"That's what I said, but even if they get a PG, everyone is going to be standing around for 1/3 of the plays because Melo is a chucker"
he's a great player, but this was frustrating as hell when he was here. They'd be moving the ball having a great offensive game, then 4th quarter would come and he'd just hold the ball and try and be the hero.
Reed singlehandedly won a title. What did Starks do? Headbutt Reggie Miller?
melo is a "i've got to get my shots" guy, as opposed to "let the shots come to him" guy
starks had that dunk
World Championship > Reggie Miller Headbutt + Had That Dunk That One Time
"oak and starks over reed?"
there was only room for 2 old timers, i had to go with the teams i grew up with
the pearl and glide
I don't even think Starks makes a Top 5 All-Time Knicks Guards list.
"melo is a "i've got to get my shots" guy, as opposed to "let the shots come to him" guy"
isnt 80% of bball players like this?
Ok, maybe he's #5 on the guard list. Frazier, Monroe, Houston, Mark Jackson, Starks.
"I don't even think Starks makes a Top 5 All-Time Knicks Guards list."
he's #5 in my heart
#StarkChills
Honorable Mention: Michael Ray Richardson
melo is no mj... i know this man
but
mj was a chucker, hate to break the news here
Houston was borderline GREAT at times man
what a shooter
"Ok, maybe he's #5 on the guard list. Frazier, Monroe, Houston, Mark Jackson, Starks."
you left out Derek Harper
"Houston was borderline GREAT at times man"
When he was healthy, sure (that's been the story of the Knicks for the last 15 years).
health is key

"isnt 80% of bball players like this?"
not really, I mean i bag on the heat, but they share the ball for the most part.
Kobe is a "i need my shots guy", but not a lot of other guys left like that.
Durant for sure isn't that way
keef hates the NBA and cartoons
I on the other hand very much enjoy Family Guy and Futurama. Used to watch all the old episodes of Futurama online

zoidberg is pretty good too

So he was a product of Nash. Got it.
