" . . . rid of Stat and Bargs . . . "
Great idea! Can the Knicks trade with D league teams?

It depends on whether or not we'd work with him afterwards. I don't Woodson and D'antoni but this franchise has a bad habit of not working with it's coaches. Woodson needs his vets and D'antoni needed his PG for his system and we got them their guys for like 1 season (in d'antoni's case like half a season).

I think they go center in the gallo draft, point in the hill draft and then are set for 10 years at center, point, power forward if they keep lee, small forward with chandler, and they still have cap space and the pick Walsh traded with hill for mc Grady. That is an attractive team for a free agent to consider.


Well the thing is that no matter who was coaching at the time we were still going all in on trying to get Lebron. Some of those trades still may have happened regardless. We definitely don't draft gallinari with D'anotni not here though.

Also, Walsh totally backed dantoni. If he supports mark like that then he would have success.


Mark would NEVER have lasted those 1st 2 years. Lets not forget that. Mark had a much easier road with the GS. Less expectations and better core talent. Could you imagine Mark coaching Duhon? The real issue wasn't Walsh wanting MDA. It was the dumb decisions to not give MDA a PG to work with knowing his system required at the very least a decent PG. Any time we got decent PG play the Knicks played much better, but honestly there was very little time during MDA's tenure that we had a good PG, much less started a season with one. Dude never had a chance to start a season with a good PG in training camp and finish the season with that PG.

He's playing frustrated using all his energy..so many times im watching where he can get his teammates a easy basket, but he's petrified they will miss..Look at the games this year where melo scored less then 20, we blew out every team..

He has the mind set of J Smooth, force shots and take shots out of rhythm

The Garden just cheered that last Curry three. Sweet.
NumberTwoPencil @ 2/28/2014 9:58 PM
Do you think the Garden will cheer Curry's next board, when he picks up his triple-double?

That's the problem, the only time Woody calls a play anytime is after timeout

I disagree. I also thought mark might be able to get something out of Marbury. I also think mark has a more traditional approach to basketball and would have wanted a center in one of the best center drafts ever. I think mark would have liked Wilson at the three and gotten Walsh to go big. And yeah I think things would be different.

" . . . no system whatsoever . . . "

So true. At a glance, it almost looks like basketball but it's not. The completely lack of any system/strategy/discipline is what has made the Knicks unwatchable all year long, regardless of the scarce wins, the injuries, and so on.

No point guards whatsoever
