as embarassing as my knicks are........it feels good to know that for the first time in years we arent the worst run franchise in all of sports

thank you celtics

heres the problem with that

first off randolph managed to get in trouble in portland.....NYC is gonna kill him

secondly francis is gonna opt out next year anyway.......so why not let some of these albatross contracts expire instead of replacing one expiring disaster contract with a much longer one??

third of all frye could have been the long term answer fo rthem in the middle

then they drafted a forward when they only have 98 of them on the roster

afflalo would have been a much better fit for them in my opinion.......and if you really have to take a forward fazekas would have been my pick

I agree, they dont need a forward. But last year Frye split time with Lee, who played better IMO. He averaged 30 mins a game and was second in the NBA in rebouding.

the thing with frye was his versatility he could play center or forward without losing much in his game as hes physical enugh to play underneath but can handle and shoot the ball as well

they got two guys who offer zero in dickau and jones.......and as good as randolph is on the court hes got well documented issue off the court in portland which doesnt compare to NYC at all

the only consolation to the whole thing was chicage blowing the knicks pick on noah......and trust me its not much of a consolation as the knicks would have wasted it anyway

doesnt renaldo balkman have a 3rd cousin who plays at SW podunk tech they could have taken at #9?

Im a Bulls fan, and I really, really hope they get rid of Noah. Hes not even as good as Tyson Chandler was.

NJ, I have a feeling Oden and Frye will be a really nice front line for the Blazers. Frye is very versatile. Get him anywhere around the free throw line and in and hes going to knock the shot down. He and Oden will have an enormous wingspan down low. Its going to be tough for teams to score on them.

I really liked Golden State's draft too. The kid from overseas looks like the goods. I saw a few highlights of him dunking on our sorry arse Olympic team. Then they traded Richardson for B. Wright. That should give them some more rebounding and a guy that can run the floor like Nelly likes. If I knew B-Diddy wasnt going to get hurt, Id predict bigger things from them next year.

I like how Baron plays. They should be fun to watch if I do watch any NBA games next year.

mega, don't forget about Aldridge as well. Another lanky player for the post. This should help them match up well against Dallas, and San Antonio.
