Billups is furious
- For teams considering claim on Chauncey Billups, he tells Y!: "A leader can be as disruptive as he can be productive..This is about me now."
- Billups: "People take my kindness and professionalism for weakness. They think I’ll be OK with (getting claimed). I won’t be OK with this."
- Billups wants freedom to choose team. Warns those who'd claim him: You'll regret it. "I'm tired of being the glue guy." Story soon on Y!

I saw the report he literally just signed that an hr ago and then he took his first steps at the garden. Sources said that his words were " this is the greatest feeling in the world, no other arena felt this powerful ".
I really wanna see him get claimed to somewhere he doesnt wanna be, if only for entertainment valueOriginally Posted by venom lyrix

I need to see the final details & do the math. RT @shortross9: can you explain what exceptions the Knicks have after all the Tyson deals?

But son, his defense is THAT poor.Originally Posted by Truballa101
Ya'll gotta stop doggin Bibby.
As long as he can handle the ball and knock down an open 3 he'll be fine.
Even though he was a scrub for the Heat last year I think he'll wake up tis year

Bibby will probably end up getting "hidden" on the other team's worst offensive player like he did in Atlanta.Originally Posted by blackmagnus514
:Rollin at Bibby guarding Rondo or Rose.
It's a good signing and he's a real good fit for the team... The only problem now is that they have zero flexibility and what we have is not nearly enough to be a real contender (imo).Originally Posted by UPPTEMPO8387
Not many teams are going after Marc Gasol because he's a restricted free agent so any offer a team like the Knicks made could have been matched by Memphis...And Gasol stated many times that his preference is staying in Memphis. He would have gotten a salary similar to Chandler's, except Chandler is a better shot blocker, defender, and rebounder. Gasol is a better scorer but he's a half court guy..Not a fast pace guy that D'Antoni would want in his system. The team needed defense more than offense so I'm not mad at the Chandler signing.

D'Antoni is an offensive genius (I know everyone likes to hate him on this board) but even with him it's hard to see this offense really clicking and moving the ball like they did before the Melo trade. They really only have two good offensive players on the whole squad. It's hard to see Chandler functioning well on offense without a good PG (which is ok, not necessarily his job) but I'm seriously worried about the backcourt not being able to shoot or score. It could be really hard to get buckets if the Knicks are relying soooo heavily on two players surrounded by incompetents like TD, Jeffries, Bill Walker, Chandler, uggggghhh
