It's going to be hilarious when the Knicks

robertg · 07-01-10, 08:29 AM

this organization is a train wreck.

jjgold · 07-01-10, 08:31 AM

Lol

solid post and correct

Knicks are done, bad coach and bad management.

DeluxeLiner · 07-01-10, 08:35 AM

so true. sharp post. wait for carmelo (if the nuggets dont trade him)?

tltaylor89 · 07-01-10, 08:37 AM

Carmelo will resign if he dosent he leaves $65 Million on the table

ProfaneReality · 07-01-10, 08:42 AM

Melo is still under contract... I bet he is trying to sign an extension early with the nuggets knowing they are going to be drastically reducing max contracts next year

oiler · 07-01-10, 08:43 AM

why would carmelo go to a team that is the worse ownership.management or coached in the nba.he wants to win a championship and the knicks have about the worse chance of that happenening.i think the cubs will win the world series before the knicks win any championship

gafl · 07-01-10, 09:11 AM

Everything Dolan touches turns to crap. Knicks will wind up overpaying for 2nd tier free agents and the cycle will start over again.

Powderguy · 07-01-10, 09:12 AM

So true

LT Profits · 07-01-10, 09:32 AM

LeBron = 0 chance is just plain wrong!

Knicks are frontrunners to land him.

D'antoni and Donnie Walsh are intelligent men.They will get the best out there,you're definitely incorrect

Also does anyone really think the nets have a shot at lebron? they play in NEWARK.... NEWARK.. thats all i gotta say

KuntkyKfc · 07-01-10, 10:28 AM

Come on people we are talking about the EAST here with all the free agents they can easily be a 7 or 8th seed.

dherd · 07-01-10, 10:41 AM

dont sweat it the big apple will get theirs. dantoni is a great coach he has already begun to turn it even with the poor talent on hand.

remmy358 · 07-01-10, 10:52 AM

I think they figure out a way to get at least 1 big name

CashMoney · 07-01-10, 10:57 AM

I'm a die hard Knicks fan and even if they don't get LBJ they can still put together a decent team for next year. A team is about putting the right pieces together.

Bill Dozer · 07-01-10, 10:59 AM

What are the odds on Knicks landing him? Is +800 out there?

waddsoy · 07-01-10, 11:01 AM

The can still get some all stars anything can happen

thebestthereis · 07-01-10, 11:05 AM

all the knicks need to do is turn the paper upside down and they'll be in first place in the standings, they don't need players

Everyone has a chance. But right now the Nets have a better chance than the Knicks.

jjgold · 07-01-10, 11:14 AM

The coverage of this in NY is unreal, I have never seen anything like it.

He might be just playing the game and going to sign back with Cleve

gafl · 07-01-10, 11:18 AM

Have to figure Cavs wouldn't sign Scott unless they thought Lebron would agree.

sean133792 · 07-01-10, 11:25 AM

The Cavs are in the east they still can be good without Lebron they just need another person

SHADYLANKY · 07-01-10, 11:38 AM

D'antoni plays a style that let's players put up big numbers and get paid well because of it. Stoudamire and Joe Johnson are examples. I don't think Johnson (not sure if Amare is either?) is really worth max contract money but they will get it. Either one could end up in NY. If NY doesn't get any top tier players then we will really see if the GM has a clue. If he over pays a bunch of mid level players again and dooms them for another 5-7 years. I kind of wish some crazy shit would happen and Clippers would end up with LeBron or some other top guy and give the Lakers a run.

Regul8er · 07-01-10, 11:43 AM

I think Bron Bron returns to the Cavs. He doesn't want to live in Michael's shadow in Chicago, be second fiddle to D-Wade, be Kobe's little brother for the Clips or have to handle the ridiculous pressure he would encounter in NJ or NY. I see him wanting to get max money, winning in his home town, with the help of possibly Bosh or Amare.

LOL. Are you serious, Frontrunners?

Time to Consider Plan B...

The New York Knicks left their meeting with LeBron James this afternoon expressing confidence in their pitch, they have continued their pursuit of Joe Johnson, despite a hefty offer in hand from the Hawks that the Knicks would be foolish to match.

With Rudy Gay off the market, and LeBron said to be leaning away from New York… where are the Knicks headed?

Sources close to the Knicks said this afternoon that they were not focusing solely on the top 3 or 4 guys in the 2010 class, and that they have reached out to Charlotte restricted free agent Tyrus Thomas, to their own free agent Al Harrington and that they have meetings plans with several other free agents this week.

The Knicks plan has always been to make a compelling pitch to some of the major named players, but sources said there is a real chance they are going to spend their money on several 2nd tier players and guys like Tyrus Thomas are absolutely on their radar.

As expected.

ProfaneReality · 07-01-10, 05:44 PM

The knicks can't match ATL's offer even if they were stupid enough to WANT to.

stealthyburrito · 07-01-10, 06:02 PM

good for lebron and the other top tier guys, they'd never win anyway in that system and organizational management in new york.

djiddish98 · 07-01-10, 06:10 PM

If the knicks can't land Wade or lebron, they should really just fade back and put some smaller pieces together. Lee needs to be signed if they go this route.

As a fan, it would be dissapointing, but not as bad as waiting 3 years and then crippling the franchise by offering amare / Johnson max deals

THEGREAT30 · 07-01-10, 10:38 PM

turning out to be a dud.

Bosh+Wade= Miami
Johnson= Hawks
Gay=Memphis
Stoudemire,James, and Boozer are the only guys really in play unless you wanna talk Lee, there own guy, or trades like CP3. Does not look good
