Blatche is immature. We don't need that on this team. If you realized, Grunwalds focus this offseason was getting proven leaders/veterans who know what it takes to win. I expect Grunwald to either call someone up from the d-league or sign a veteran forward like Martin or Barnes.
I don't think we're getting Amundson. I can see him going to Charlotte or Cleveland.

your crazy kmart can still ball but our team is really in need of another shooter i'd go crazy if we could still get delfino but kmart would do plus he'd be insurance if amare goes down Yes Flatbush I must be crazy, I coached High School Ball for 5 years and 2 local colleges for 12 worked for the Albany Patroons for years don't know if you heard of them they are where the great Phil Jackson started his coaching , Bill Mussleman, Dean Meminger, I know Talent and K-Mart is washed up, if you think he is better talent wise then Blatche, you are a tad bit crazy...

im not sold on blatche but kmart only has to play like 15 minutes for us and he was good in the playoffs for the clippers last year did you even watch him last year that guy still has some left in the tank idk what you expect him to do for us but all he has to do is rebound play good d and knock people on ther *** every once in a while not to mention he is a good locker room guy to keep around also at vet min it's not that big of a risk ther is a reason nobody claimed blatche off waivers cuz he sucks lmao

I would be happy if we got Barnes.

EDIT: Barnes just got arrested again and we don't need the drama so scratch this post.

LOL Gideon I was just about to reply to you with that same news about Barnes being arrested. This guy is half-way crazy.

Manhattan Beach PD says Matt Barnes threatened bodily harm to one of their officers as they were trying to arrest him on a traffic warrant

**Punk** · 07-31-2012, 03:26 AM

I still want Barnes. We just had Kidd nearly kill himself, what be the harm in adding Barnes? Just keep him away from the cops.

Besides, Barnes is probably the craziest and dirtiest player we would have since Oakley/Mason.

This is supposed to be a hard nosed physical team. Barnes would not take no **** from Pierce and LeBron.

I believe Barnes' last 2 seasons haven't been as good as his previous stints with Orlando. I don't want kim here. His shooting, which was once reliable, is now so inconsistent.

I'd prefer Dominic McGuire or another big.

Did you see what Carl Landry signed for in GS? We could have gotten him for that money... That is before our moves.

**thepearl** · 07-31-2012, 01:00 PM

Knicks need a power forward to back up Stat. Yi Jianlian, though not a savior of any sorts is a "young" option that can easily be had at the vet min. or used for trade bait down the line. Check out his video's..the kid can move for a seven footer. Could create another asian sensation at The Garden. Your thoughts.

**HouRealCoach** · 07-31-2012, 01:23 PM

I wouldn't pass on Yi but he would be an asian Anthony Randolph here

Yi is not that popular within the Asian community and his skills are not good enough to become a sensation here. Trust me on this one. My girl is Chinese and usually supports all Asian athletes, but she hates Yi (and she's not the only one)! Lol!

**SluggeR** · 07-31-2012, 02:26 PM

People keep saying we don't have room to add another guy, because there will be an issue with minutes..I don't see it.

TC/Camby/STAT
STAT/Thomas
Melo/Novak/Copeland
Brewer/J.R./White
Felton/Kidd/PP

Just because a guy is on the roster, doesn't mean he is entitled to legit minutes. Thomas, Copeland, White, PP, and Brewer are not the caliber players that can demand so many minutes each night. Leaving Chandler/Camby/STAT/Melo/Novak/J.R./Kidd/Felton to play the bulk of the minutes. If we can land a quality player that can significantly contribute every night, sign him up..AKA K-Mart or Ivan. I'm surprised to hear no one has signed Ivan, he could be the second-coming of Oakley if he came here.

Ivan is a RFA. The hawks would match our minimum offer. And brewer is a caliber player that deserves to play around 15-20 min even when Shump is back

Someone please explain to me why we dont sign Kenyon Martin!

**THE MTL** · 07-31-2012, 10:50 PM

**Jint.** · 07-31-2012, 10:56 PM
