    Jacksonity......or the Knick thread

    DISCLAIMER: I really have no idea what it takes to play NBA caliber defense. With that being said, how hard is it really to gameplan defense? I mean, it certainly isn't as complicated as defense in football. In my (limited) playing experience, defense is 99% everyone hustling and being on the...

    I agree with the comparison of NY to Dallas last year, with regards to the pieces being there. I think it's worth noting, however, that it isn't like the Heat didn't put up a fight against Dallas. They basically walked all over the east, taking each series against the 76ers, Celtics and Bulls...

    ESPN Is Pathetic

    Probably not. Furthermore, assuming there is a need for punishment, why wouldn't the managers be punished as well? Racism is an ugly thing, and as a society we should be on the lookout for it. Unfair treatment of labor is also an ugly thing, and it deserves to be scrutinized just as much...

    Regarding the Knicks trading for Howard, I don't see how it would work. I mean, I would do Amare for Howard straight up if Orlando wanted to, which they wouldn't (right?), but Melo for Howard doesn't make much sense. In that scenario, one of Chandler or Amare would have to go, and I think...

    /useless post He's from (around) my home town, so presumably he can score everything for the entire team. As I stated before, and echoing your sentiments, I really like J.R.. Great player to come off the bench. The Knicks are really exciting right now. Can they take down the Heat? Why the hell not!

    So, in trying to figure out the salary cap situation for the Knicks (which I havn't really come close to doing), it is amazing how they have been able to turn the franchise around. In 2005-06 the Knicks payroll was $124 and they paid $62.3 million in luxury tax. Their payroll is now $72 million...

    J.R. Smith would be awesome coming off the bench. Career 18.8points/3.0assists/4.2rebounds per 36 minutes. I've always liked him. From this link "The Knicks have more money and a bigger role to offer than other suitors such as the Lakers and Clippers." Is this true, do the Knicks have money...

    So, Lin Fields Melo Amare Chandler That is an impressive starting 5 come playoff time. I would think that Melo and Amare, at their respective career stages having signed big contracts, would be willing to work with the pick and roll in an effort to win a championship. Their bench is weak, to...
