Exactly!!!! I have no freakin idea what he's saying.

The guy picking his nose is a true master. Look at how he winks at the camera after he's done picking. Almost as smooth as the Dos Equis beer guy!!! LOL

yes Yanks I ****ed up miserably

Smart move. Amar'e is done. Sheed is done. Kurt Thomas breaks down at the 11 minute mark. Chandler is injured. Camby is a shell of himself.

Honestly, I thought it was a little ridiculous signing all these guys but I guess it takes 3 vet bigs just to get 20-25mpg for an entire 82 game season.

I'm still holding out hope that Kenyon and Camby (both were productive last season) can give us quality bench minutes in the playoffs.

The announcers today were saying how much a steal Kenyon was and why they were baffled he wasn't sign till now. They said it might have been about perception, etc etc etc.

It wasn't. Kenyon simply wanted the 4.5 million I think it was. He didn't want to take less. he didn't want to take the 1.4 vet min. The problem, though, was that at his age (35), no one wanted to pay that. He said he'd sit out till he got an offer that gave him the 4.5 mil that teams get...and only like 4-6 teams had it available...


but he's good now.

Can't beleive how many injuries we've had. So many "good" signings but all the age relaly did backfire. I always though (no amare, we still have camby. No camby, we have Sheed. No Sheed, we have Kurt. Same thing with the other positions. But it seems every position has been thinned out simply because of the amount of injuries.

I really wish this yankstheknicks would apologize to all the folks he insulted calling us fake fans and this and that because "HIS" knicks were going to be the best ever and he felt something special... started 1000 new threads and consistently blocked people when they disagreed with him.

Pathetic. We were right -- he was wrong. We all wished the Knicks were going to win - but they aren't.

And you are a punk.

Here's a quote by Woody in the last couple days:

Planning for Chandler's return, Woodson said he's not sure yet how the first five will look, but he'd like to base it around Anthony at power forward, with Martin anchoring the second unit defense.

"A lot of it can be based on personnel and who we're playing," Woodson said. "But I would still like to keep Melo at the four if I can and when we bring Tyson back in, we'll have K-Mart coming off the bench to back him up."

I really think K-mart should start, with Anthony, Chandler, Felton, Shump. This is the combination we've wanted all year - a defensive minded 4 that wont get in Anthony's way.

Of course Kenyon gets in the way. Where are you going to put him on the floor? He can't shoot and he can't post-up. He can run pick and rolls but then Chandler has no where to go because he can't shoot or post-up. Woodson has it exactly right.
