Obviously


obviously this obviously that.....nothing is obvious when reading your posts because its very hard to understand your sentences, and don't say that 'i don't have any brain left' in reply because i'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand what you are saying

sometimes you don't need a bunch of superstars (Portland)


:lol: a bunch of superstars? well rasheed wallace isn't super enough to be a superstar and besides wallace who the hell else even a star on that roster

sometimes you don't need a bunch of superstars (Portland) to win but guys who are dedicated and determined to win, players who give all they got in order to win a game


try telling denver that

Sorry, I didn't know we had kindergardens in the forum, my appologies to the forum.

and don't say that 'i don't have any brain left' in reply because i'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand what you are saying


You would understand when someone agrees with you, in case you know what the verb (to agree) means, that's obvious. I've seen you (that stands for I have seen you, making it easier for you) coming with the comment that you don't understand why people quoted you or asking "what does that mean?", so I don't think it's just with my comments, I know your problem it's general and that's not a problem I have to deal with. :roll:

well rasheed wallace isn't super enough to be a superstar


That's just your opinion John, you also considered Shawn Kemp worse than Vin Baker and that's also your opinion.

besides wallace who the hell else even a star on that roster


You see, maybe because you see I reply, you think that you are a good writer or your english is perfect, however that sentence is disorganized and have no sense, else is not a verb, the hell is not an auxiliar, are you trying to make a question there?, it's hard to know but I guess you were.

Anyway, since you don't have the same opinions or understand what a star is, I won't make another argument on who are stars or who those players are.

try telling denver that


Denver? I wouldn't say Denver wanted to lose but everyone, besides you, knows how bad Denver & Cleveland wanted to get the worst record for a better chance in getting Lebron, do you call that playing hard?

I stated well "I wouldn't say" :roll:, cause every team is supposed to have the desire to win John, :roll:

talk about making a big deal out of nothing


:roll: , Well, I saw in other threads you were advised not to continue with this thing but like you just didn't stop, I found necessary to show your english was not the best. You are one of the few that can create sentences without verbs.

I'm not sure Krause wouldn't have done the same thing. :wink:

That trade wasn't terrible until McDyess' unfortunate injury in the preseason. It certainly makes a case in favour of star players recovering from injuries to skip preseason games. But since the way it did turn out, it was certainly a bad move - risky at the time it was made, but potentially good until the injury.

The "trading a long time franchise star" curse strikes again.

Remember that you don't know how those guys coming from a different league and from HS are going to perform in the league.

At the beginning I really liked the trade, but after McDyess got injured again, oh well...

Well yes MP3, he was obviously out for the whole year last season and I believe part of the year before so Knicks knew what the risks were. Also knowing McDyess as a superstar we really wanted to get someone like him on the team, no matter what the risks were.

McDyess to have surgery again

Might be an idea if he sits out the pre-season this time around, in case another unfortunate accident occurs. :?

Anderson Varejao

I think the reason mp3 mentioned him is because nbadraft.net has the Knicks picking Varejao at 9. Because the lottery hasn't been done yet, there's a good chance they won't be at 9 but drop or rise. I think the Knicks would be better off with a big man that they don't have to develop, like Sweetney or Collison.

INTEREST IN P.J.: With the future of Knicks forward Antonio McDyess uncertain after undergoing bone graft surgery last week, don't be surprised if New York makes a serious pitch for Hornets' free-agent-to-be P.J. Brown.

The New York media has been speculating in recent months that Brown would be a good fit for the Knicks.

McDyess underwent the graft at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., on Tuesday, and saw X-rays following the surgery that brightened his mood.

Three times in the past 18 months McDyess has had surgery on his fractured left patella.

"The X-rays were unbelievable," McDyess told The New York Post from his hospital bed. "You couldn't see a line in the bone. All I could do was smile. I was definitely satisfied. I was able to put a smile on my face."

McDyess will began rehabilitating in a couple of weeks, but is not expected to be ready for the season opener, making it more pressing that the Knicks add someone with size, such as Brown.

"Of course I'm going to be worried," McDyess said. "As a player, after a third surgery, you wonder if things will be the same, wonder how my knees are going to respond when I get back on the court."

Brown earns $7.044 million in the last season of his contract with the Hornets.

The Hornets would be wise to ante up whatever it takes to keep Brown in New Orleans. It's much easier for Brown to commute 30 minutes from his home in Slidell each day than to uproot his family and move each basketball season.

Whether Brown would accept a little less money to remain here and play for the home team is uncertain, but the Hornets certainly need to be persuasive in their negotiations and let Brown know how much his talents on and off the court are appreciated.


P.J would give the knicks solid minute's but imo i think the knicks could do with some young legs.

Brown would probably be able to provide the Knicks with the kind of defence that was their staple during the 90s. He'd probably come at a price higher than the Knicks can offer him (unless they can work a sign and trade). Still, he'd be a nice insurance policy if McDyess is out for the season again next year.

I don't think Brown will command more than the MLE, and if he does I don't think it's very smart. With luxury tax and all, teams won't be willin to pay an aging PF a lot of money (unless your name is Antonio Davis :P)
I think Rasho would be pretty good for thr Knicks as well, he seems very interested as well.

I guess that depends on how much Brown (and/or his agent) thinks he's worth. If New Orleans are willing and able to offer Brown higher than the Knicks' exception, then he might stay with the Hornets.

I think Rasho would be pretty good for thr Knicks as well, he seems very interested as well.


Rasho would be a good fit on most teams in the East, the Knicks included. If I were the Timberwolves' management, I'd try to keep him.
