In a way we got JR as free agent to replace Shy Wilson.
THink JR not pissed he can't get a nice contract like Wilson got?
someone put them Nugg hoes on the thread!
go knicks! Better win or the Sombers will awake!
Hopefully should be a good game- JR, Melo and Felton will be wanting to crush them, while Gallo seems capable of having those occasional big games against us. Don't want to lose two in a row, so I will accept nothing less than victory!
I think Wilson is still out.

He is, having hip problems for a while now. Seems like he's been injured since we traded him- though never underestimate the magical healing properties of a Knick visit. I'll wager any money that Lopez is magically healed for the Knicks/Nets game.
After Felton, Wilson Chandler was the one I didn't want to let go off during the trade with Denver, as he could play/defend multiple positions, and brings many intangibles with his ability to score as the 3rd/4th option on the floor. I always thought Gallo was too slow to to play the SF spot efficiently and too small to play the PF or SG.
Unfortunately, Wilson Chandler has been injured much during his return to the NBA.
This game is very important. Need to continue to not lose two in a row (with that one exception). Our O should come back to our norm after yesterday's lockdown by the Bulls
I read that Wilson isn't traveling with the team.

I can't find anything that says yes or no. We'll probably find out a little before the game like last night.
My hope for this game is gallo go's for 40, melo for 45 and knicks win!
Why?
Not to further the argument or fuel anyone, but Gallo spend 3 years here, liked playing for NY, NY liked him and why not have a wonderful memory.
He won't be given it, he has to earn it!
Hopefully its not about revenge and I suspect its more about professionals doing their thing, earning the pay, entertain the crowd and earn a win.
If JR wants to "Stick it" then do it within the context of a team victory.
Well Gallo did have 37 in the last matchup
Don't care who scores what. Just want to see our D and ball movement.

No way he won't play, just don't see him sitting out a personally important game like this.

Couldn't you have said the same thing about the Miami game?

It's not enough to hope for the Knicks to win. You have to hope for each member of the opposing team to go scoreless!

You didnt really need to quote my post to say that since your response doesnt really have anything to do with what I said.
Some prefer the former players all blow out their ACL making any trade goof proof and impervious to second guessing
I said I want the knicks to win.
Gallo was liked in the Garden.
This is like the guys that wish the old girlfriends are all miserable because they lack self confidence in themselves and what their lives are about. Knicks take care of their own business then it don't matter who does what.
If you want to argue the trade Its all about the knicks doing well because of it. Took a season and a half to get the roster back after depleting after the trade. If you did not have confidence that could be done perhaps you hated the trade. If you were confident the knicks would then you loved it.
The team is 15-4. It would be fun for an ex knick to have a good game and entertain viewers. As long as our team wins.
Thats how you win trades, by winning.
If you have to see abject failure from the trading partner to validate ones moves, then thats your criteria and so beit. Me, I like to see players I once rooted for do well.
OH not this again - now we will have another month of Nuggets threads where people gloat how bad they are.

Did you really imply all this from the one question I asked you? Good god...
I have no problem with any former players scoring any amount of points or doing whatever. I just dont want them to do it against the Knicks
