take a look. some say he was a better scorer than MJ
if it wasnt for injuries, sure fire HOF
I read once that he was averaging close to 40 at the AS break. i cant confirm this though
I know who he is, was just blanking on who you were referring to as BK

this team has no depth, but even when D'Antoni has a decent bench, he plays 7 guys so meh
no Mozgov sucks. bulky 7 footer at the minimum. he actually has talent

good haul for Denver

new york will need help on the bench, but getting brewer wasnt a bad move either. i still feel they gave up waaaaaaay to much and that still get to dream about cp3/deron.. which may not even happen

remember Melo in the WCF?
he was a man possessed. he was unbelievable
expect this Melo for the rest of the season, and more often than when he was in Denver

going to be fun to watch. too bad the Clippers/Lakers are done with the Knicks this season

I think Knicks fans are letting their attachment to the guys that are leaving affect their opinion of the trade. Were Galinari, Felton and Chandler good? Hell yeah, and they were fun to watch. But you probably weren't gonna win a championship with that group of guys. Getting Carmelo gives them one of the best players in the league and gives them a group of stars in Amare and Melo to build around for years.
I'm not so sure about the build around part. Mostly because of Stoudemire and his injuries, he's going to run out of gas at some point. Then the new CBA, what happens when Chauncey is done (which can't be that long from now)? You will really have to manage your money to have two superstars and a competitive squad, chances of getting three superstars is nonexistent from what I've heard.

i've always liked the knicks lol

they are all good players, but like i said, Melo/Billups/Brewer >
gotta give up talent to get talent
Mexi, you like everyone. haha.

Not saying that's a bad thing.

But I guess I like the deal for the Knicks as well but they did give away some nice pieces, but that's what it takes for a superstar like Melo. Amare, Melo, amd Billups is real nice.

It's going to be tough for the Knicks to get CP3 unless it's through FA. Do they have the cap?

Chad Ford:
Knicks have no center. Thin bench. And won't have the cap space to pay CP3, Deron Williams over any other top FA in 2012.

There will be a franchise tag in 2012 available anyway.

Can you actually go past #55? lol. I swear they say the ref has to be able to have the number on his hands lol. But I think Kapono wears something way over.
