Knicks · Knicks should bring in McGrady (page 1)

McGrady is back from China.

Dude is better than Novak for sure.

NO!

His team is in last place. Something like 8-34

Lol,

the thing is that, once you open the gates with Sheed (2 years out of retirement, currently anointed Franchise Savior),

everyone under 50 years old is fair game,

I'm still waiting for the Knicks to bring in Isiah Rider. Sheed's buddy

Loved his winning attitude the last time he was a Knick...

McGrady would be coming off the bench and provide us with another ball handler, passer, and someone who can hit an open shot. Kidd is playing on fumes at moment.

We are going to have to start resting guys eventually and I'd like to keep Melo semi fresh for the playoffs.

it just doesn't feel comfortable, i feel like we're patching holes in the frame of the boat so that we may only stay afloat,

teams like miami and clippers signed the old guys to secure their position at the top, we're just trying to claw our way to the top on a rickety ladder

Our window is small with this core. Only 2 more years and Amare is gone and we will likely refresh the roster.

McGrady is battle tested. He is good for 10 to 15 minutes a night off the bench. Too be honest I dont trust Felton or Kidd to remain healthy without dropping their minutes.

Plus McGrady at SG helps with our switching defense. We'd be able to go big with our guards.

I literally laughed my ass off when I read this thread title.

I'd rather play James White a whole lot more when compared to signing McGrady. T-Mac was awful last year with Atlanta coming off the bench and just as awful the year before with Detroit.

mcgrady is one of those names that we would be better to let go,

it's the reason we're in the current mess to begin with: the franchise looks first for a quick fix and never even considers the reasonable option which might take a little bit of patience to pick the berries off the bush,

mcgrady is just a one shot quick fix, like baron davis last year and sheed and camby and kurt are this year,

i'd rather go with what we have at this point

Didn't know you could literally do that.

BigDaddyG @ 2/24/2013 12:30 PM
2002 was a good year. McGrady was the scoring champ, STAT was a rookie with loads of upside, Jason Kidd led the league in assists, Rasheed Wallace was an in & out threat struggling to lead an erratic Jailblazers club, and Marcus Camby played only 29 games that year due to injury. The 2012 Knicks: "Yesterday's hits and today's memories."

Yup. Ass is off.

why not go full crazy and bring in Delonte West.

I like this idea. Even if we start winning again. If its evident the perimeter D isn't improving and Shump stays at the 3, we need a guy like West for shooting and tough D.

gilbert arenas must be free...

God forbid he sleeps with the wife of Carmelo Anthony or even worse Melo's own mother?

He had sex with LeBron's mother, his own teammate. Doesn't get any worse than that in regards to being an awful teammate. No thanks.

Bis was looking at his T-Mac posters on his bedroom wall when he decided to make this thread. I'd rather bring in someone like Sonny Weems or a Jordan Farmar not T-Rex..
