You do bring up a good point. Knicks definitely need a stretch 4. One thing I've noticed about the NBA now is that you can't have a PF/C combo that are both paint scorers. Like DeAndre Jordan/Blake Griffin combo will never be a success. Both are great players, but they don't work together. At least one of them has to be capable of hitting the mid range/outside jumper. Bargs would be a nice fit on offense, but he plays absolutely no defense, is constantly injured, and has a huge contract.

Honestly, if the Knicks want to make improvements, they need to get rid of Amare. How long do they have have to test this Melo/Amare thing for? The stats speak for themselves. Only problem is I doubt anyone wants to take on Amare's contract.
