what's your point here? we have the worst defense in the league or thereabouts. please don't tell me the knicks would be contenders with curry here this season instead of calderon.

Oh yeah the Knicks would sck with Curry.

I don't think that you read his post.

Well Melo is barely a Top 20 player

So swapping Melo out with most player ranked in the Top 20 above him that is

We'd probably be noticeably better than 5-29

Maybe closer to Brooklyn or Bucks record

Nothing ground breaking but competitively better

I know the whole team is bad. We do have one good player who makes too much and is now hurt and should take his buddy's LBJ lead and sit for 3-4 weeks.

eff i wasn't even thinking swap out melo for curry. i am saying swap out calderon for curry and we are still not contenders.

this is one of the worst defen-sieve teams in the nba and no matter how much we fantasize about "outscoring" the opponents-- a silly conceit that almost never translates to the playoffs btw-- come playoff time the knicks don't even make for a competitive second round playoff series.

i say this based on the premise/scenario of: jackson, fisher, triangle.

system first, players second.

no mix and match, no compromise, no adapt to players' "skills."

You think swapping out Melo for someone else you think is better would make us close to a .500 team? Wow you have to be kidding.

Here is another thing that was on my mind regarding the pg free agency,
One thing that Dragic, Jackson and even knight have in common is hat they play FAST and Dynamic basketball. The triangle does not scream that at all. Its more be decisive and hit the open 3 pointers. If we want to get the utmost best out of them we have to dump the triangle.

Not for nothing, but Curry has been a good defender this year according to 82games. It jibes with what I've seen from the court this year from him as well, so he's kind of a bad example.

Well Jackson said Stephen Curry was

Exceptionally ideal for the Triangle

He mentioned 4 other players and Melo did not make the cut

So Phil surely isn't on the right page with you as a fan

Not in execution nor vision

he may be ideal but as an undersized shooting guard, not as a replacement for calderon... which i thought was the point of the exercise.

if we are talking about curry instead of the crap we have at shooting guard then that is different. above .500 perhaps.

BUT

calderon-curry-melanoma and any other 2 frontcourt players does not inspire awe or fear in other teams, does it?

yes he would be ideal for the triangle but the knicks need defenders given their present state. i don't see how curry, who is a great offensive player, lifts the knicks to contending status given the overall lack of defense that presently defines the team.

the knicks need two-way players at every position. the knicks do not have starting-caliber two-way players. not a single one!

incredible, really.

I agree all I'm saying Stephen Curry was Phil's fancy

And he has big dreams for Greg Monroe if no Marc Gasol

All I'm saying Phil is more than likely playing with your Yo-Yo

The accidental free fall into the lottery landing a savior is

What may salvage the relationship

like cosmo kramer falling backwards into money, yes-- could the knicks have earned that sort of good fortune through sheer incompetence? i suppose....
