Knicks · Melo opts out... (page 4)

on the other hand, he can make decent money in Europe and play a game more suitable to his physicality.
Either way, we good.
That was then.
Look, the reality is the kid had an awful summer last year (Pneumonia) and He was making progress before his swan dive. The team doing better after he left could due to many variables including JR finding his stride. Im not saying for sure "I BELIVE" in bargs but HOPING the triangle provides a better system in which to play to his strengths. whats the expectation??? For a top pick and face of the franchise is one thing, give me 15, 6 and 3 and you have a hell of a player! Don't put the franchise on his back, but as a 3rd option player. High post in the triangle the kid is a treat cuz he can drive past most bigs, pull up and hit a shot, or pass. Not talking larry bird here, just skill set that MIGHT be conducive. He'll be better without Melo.

1)How quickly some forget that we over spent for Amare cause no one would come when we had a boat load of cap space
2)With not one single marguee player on the roster, Why would any veteran player want to come to a rebuilding team
3)I keep hearing as long we get some picks, for what, so we can be a (cavs, mini, sixers,)constently loosing.
Some of you are living a Pipe Dream just like MELO

I think we have seen about all we are going to get out of Bargs. Can't believe we shipped off a 1st rounder for this guy when they were going to get rid of him regardless.

If he was an UFA he would get less attention than Cole. Any scenario where he's playing a role and producing wins seems like a total fantasy to me. I have much more hope that Felton comes back to have an impact season over Bargs, and I consider Felton to be toast (with extra, LOTs of extra butter).StarksEwing1 wrote:Nalod wrote:Bargnani is our wild card.

The upside to the current roster is THjr, Shump, Amare, Murray and JR.

Not many do but Phil has clout, 13 rings and an idea how to play and win as a team
That is as opposed to construction a roster of 40 year old geriatrics around a me first player

We will have cap space for 2 max deals in 2015. We will have an emergent star in THjr. We will (hopefully) have two solid rookies from this year's deep draft (assuming Melo to Bulls). We have PJax and Fisher.
I think a lot of smart players would see huge upside here.

This is what Ive been saying for a while now, too. We will suck next year and get a nice high pick. Then, Phil will have every single big contract the Knicks have coming off the books in 2015 and that gives the Knicks enough cash to sign 2 max FA's or 1 mac plus a whole sheehit load of nice pieces. Whatever is best! The future is not bad at all. Let Melo walk, let Phil have a clean slate and lets see what he and Fisher can do.

well if he has bum shoulders they shouldn't offer him a dime, but if they make him an offer it may be for the max... but if they don't... phil should offer him a disgustingly low ball deal.. I am hoping he offers him nothing, but if phil must, I would offer a 3 year deal of no more than 15mil per.. if he doesn't like It I tell him to take the best deal out there.. you did opt out...
