Wow, I'm so not impressed by D'Antoni and his press conference. Basically dude said his decision came down to him and his wife deciding where theywanted to live. SMH, if anything, we'll see more wins, but nothing substantial. Dude said nothing of substance, that I saw (I came in a bit late on thereplay).

Did you really expect him to say anything realistic like "we've got to turn over the roster"? Nothing really comes from these press conferencesother than "I'm glad to be here...I love NY...Always loved NY...Bring the Knicks back to respectability" etc.
I like how he mentioned that he coached to his players ability in Phoenix. I hope he means it, and we can get some defensive guys in here.

This is the cap for the suns right now
This is our cap
Raptors
Its possible to do the trade's for Crawford for TJ. That would actually be best for both teams. The Raptors get a penetrator, and a solid scorer, and weget a decent PG just in case we don't draft one in this years draft.
I DO NO want for us to get Diaw and Barbosa. Their contracts go past 2010, and they don't help us in anyway. We are better off keep Marbury, and lettinghis contract expire.

It's a new Knicks world now. Dolan has promised commissioner David Stern he would spend what needed to be spent to turn this thing around. And Dolan may have been advised by Stern to offer up his money but not his basketball advice. In turn, david stern has promised to give the Knicks a top 2 pick in the draft

@ the fake editing, at least put David Sterns name in caps

Agreed man getting under cap should be #1 for us cause if even if we cant get Bron at leasst we will get a star. Hopfully Bron though son is DIRTY
Basicailly my main argument is that weas in the fans, media, and most importantly have to be patient. Dont be stupid. I get pissed when i hear peopletalking about this matter. DO NOT TRADE STEPHON MARBURY!!! Just PLEASE deal wityh him for this one last year, we have deal he;ll since 2004, we can live onemore year with him. Think of it this way, i mean we have dealt with Steph's %!#+ since 04 dont WE deserve to have his contract come off our cap? Is itreally fair to us that we have to deal with Stephs %!#+, and than we trade him to one team who has to live with him for one little year and POOF they get the$20 mil off their cap.
Lets not be stupid, we cant trade Stephon, it would just be a stupid move. It is the kind of move that we do in the past, we always would trade expiringcontracts for long term big contracts and usually they turn out to be busts., Cant we learn from the past? Than again maybe not cause we OBVIOUSLY haventlearned very much from Larry brown in 06, yes i know there are differences which i stressed but still.
All im saying is keep Steph on this team, i mean unless there is an offer that we really cant refuse, but still we need to try. And on the trade subject, ifwe cant get Rose (one week today baby
i would love getting him, he can play the 1 or the 2, he is lightning quick. I think in the east in D'Antoni's system running the show instead of abackup he could have be an all star caliber player and not to metion he is very young and loaded with potential. Also his contract although long term is veryreasonable, so if we get him that means we get an all-star young player who we have locked up for numerous years under a low contract. But than again if we getrose i would not be down on trading for him because we would give up alot and i dont want to give up all that for a backup, but if we dont get rose he may beanother answer for our future PG with Nate coming off the bench.
And yes I agree i like Diaw but homie is too soft for NY
but not as soft as...

but eh .. i just never really gave into the whole lebron coming to knicks idea.. ya can flame i already got use to it atschool

See I don't see this "bad attitude" that some others see. As a matter of fact, I see him as a model citizen and the right choice forthe face of the league. If he comes to the knicks I will.....................let's cross that bridge when we get there.
