http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/222059/Knicks_In_Lead_To_Acquire_Steve_Nash So apparently Knicks are in the lead and we probably never had a chance. Now the franchise suffers through yet another embarassment of only having an overpaid deadweight to show for all the fiasco. (I say deadweight cau...

After all shit the team has gone through with Ross and Fields, still no word from Nash. Somehow, I'm thinking we are not his first, second, or even third choice and he's just waiting for some team to come and save the day so he can say NO to Raptors nicely so he doesn't lose any fans here in Canada....

I've accepted the reality that this team isn't bad enough to compete for top lottery but not good enough to challenge for top spot either through FA/trade or whatever but it's also been too much losing for too long that the team should really try its best with what they've got and see how far it can...

1) I'm sure that FT% is workable. He's young, second youngest in draft, he can learn. 2) Lamb IS long. I think he has the tools to be a good defender. I don't watch college ball but apparently, he was fine on that end the year before. Just last year, there was too much shit going on on that team. I ...

This IS Araujo pick all over again. Picking based on need. They identified a need and picked the safest guy that addresses the need, BPG be damned. Colangelo and team did a shit job of tanking and got a shit lotto pick instead of a good one. Then they lost a fucking coin toss to Golden State on top ...

Long time since I posted here...

Just came to say FUCK COLANGELO!!!!

NO excuse! NO FUCKING EXCUSE!!!

Damn, just when I thought we were getting a top pick in a loaded draft, they have to go out and actually start playing better. It's good that Dwayne Casey is starting to get the most out of this group although Ed Davis and DeMar DeRozan haven't started out as well as I'd like but damn they need to s...

I certainly feel better about the pick. But we'll have to see how he fares in European Championship later this summer. That's going to be a better test for him.

Well, they can't redo the draft so what can they do? Cavs themselves were rewarded with #1 AND #4 picks under very suspect circumstances, at least to me.

Anyway, it changes nothing. Everybody knew he was staying a year in Europe and it looks like he is if he'll sign in 2012.

But I thought this guy was supposed to be all about defense? Isn't his offense more of a question mark? I'm not sure what to think about this pick. The guy may be staying another year but there IS an impending lockout so who knows what's gonna happen. It may end up being a non-issue. Well, at least,...

Maybe they save money? Their not picking up an option means they don't have to pay money owed to him as a coach, doesn't it? And if there's a lockout, they could go in with no coach to pay. Either way, I'm glad.
