To the extent that any of them are available they would make great Knicks. I haven't seen when they'd be available via trade or free agency but this is the type of player we need in New York and have not had in forever.

no Gallo? 2 way player, team guy, GREAT contract... Why no love? Looks like Dragic is the only scorer in your list. Your aware you need buckets to win right? Just ask the Pacers? How do you go from best team in the NBA to looking at first round flame out at the hands of an 8ths seed with 37 wins? No scoring.

No roster = your list sucks

Parsons and Lillard are scorers, but I do agree with you for the most part.

you build a team with these guys first and then you will attract the elite players. the exact opposite of what happened with the melo trade. until i see gallinari healthy again and playing 75 games next season i am not ready to put him on the list. one of the most underrated players in the nba when healthy. most of the guys on my list can score the ball.

show me the list of players you think would make great knicks.

Parsons is great. He's actually what we all hoped Gallo would be, but his scoring comes off other players. He's not a guy who can go get you baskets. Dragic has beautiful game in that regard.. so silky smooth. I believe Parson's is an RFA.

Oh and Steve Francis he can score

I agree, would love to see gallo healthy, and if so, he is a heck of a player.... as you said, one of the most underrated players in the nba when healthy.. I would like to add Deng to that list, long, athletic, can score, and is a great defender...

These are good players to have in your line up if we still have melo.

The object IMO is not to get talent, but get certain pieces that complement other pieces. The one thing I (if i was a gm) like is that atleast 80% of my roster has to be able to knock down a 3 with some consistency, in fact every player should be able to hit a open mid range with ease.

Why not a list of supermodels that would make great WIVES/girlfriends?

Or Powerball amounts that would make great bank accounts?

Or a list of Yachts that would make nice boats?

Maybe this is the hater list of players that has two meanings:

1. Players we could have instead of Melo!
or
2. Masterbation list for the hater.

We get Lamar Oh-Dumb sans his pipe.

Let me add some quality low contracts like

James Johnson *would offer him a 2 year vet min deal*
Gereld Green *would offer him a 2 year vet min deal*
Brandon Rush (a big gamble if he does recover to his prior injury form as an extremely efficient SG/F that rebounds, steals/blocks, and defends at the high level in addition to his FG and 3pt % *team option deal*
Marion (despite his age) *solid Mentor*
Randy Foye
Adrien

Believe it or not I believe Darko Milic would be a quality BIG that would fit in the Phil's versatility on the cheap
He has been consistent in terms of Rebounding, Blocked Shots, Post Presence, mid Range game, PnR game, and could be 1/3 BIG rotations that is extremely under rated
Darko will never live up to being picked 2nd before many STAR's but he has been working out with his trainer, and I think is cost efficient

Maybe in 2015, at the right price, we can target players Dragic, Love/LA, Rudy Gay, Monta Ellis

3-4 Rotation of PF/C
Jordan Hendricks, Chris Johnson, Greg Stimensa, Cole Alrich, Jeremy Tyler, STAT (on a vet min to about 2m deal)

At PG, vet min deal on Ridnour and/or JJ Barea, in addition to DK's list of Livingston, Marshall

As for the MLE this summer, depending on of it is a 5m or 3m+ deal
Pau Gasol, Trevor Ariza, Sessions/Bayless, Gortat, Robin Lopez

We have much work to do in terms of building a winning culture, building a team with chemistry, and playing TEAM effective ball
It starts next summer, from our Head Coach, Assistant Coaches, and Development Coaches

Actually he can, especially when the rockets push the ball, he is very good handling the ball and getting to the rim, in the halfcourt set he has shown the ability on numerous occasions to beat his man off the dribble.. he has worked on his catch and shooting abilities as he was not good at that a couple of years ago, but has improved... he is also a pretty good passer.. not sure how many rockets games you watch, I followed them all year, he doesn't actually rely that much on getting set up from teamates... I'' have to find the stat but I think less than 50% of his shots are unassisted.

RonRon @ 4/22/2014 11:42 AM
For Sun's I wonder with the way Dragic has played, if we can steal Bledsoe or Dragic, with 1st round pick and 2 2nd rounders for CA, and either fill ins or a trade exemption
