I read NJ is going to make a push for Tayshaun after they waive Outlaw.

Let's hope so lol.

its not a bad plan if tayshaun doesnt ask for a bunch of money which i doubt he does but i also read that we want to bring him back =/

Damn there are some very good FA centers out there this year, we really need one...

I would love to get Gasol or Chandler on the Knicks. I dont think it will happen though.
gasol and chandler will not be in new york

Gasol is re-signing...or Memphis is going to match any offer.

Chandler will most likely resign as well.

Nene I can see going anywhere...maybe the Clippers if they don't try to get CP3.
gasol is staying put, memhpis will likely let the market set gasols price and match an offer. chandler is iffy but i think he'll be back in dallas but his value has gone up a lot. nene is tough. i really dont know. i think hes leaving denver but i have no clue where. i can see him taking less money but he can also pull a lot this off-season and should take the biggest deal.

Why is Dumars such a fucking idiot?

I also read the Clippers want him too.

the clippers have had interest for a few years now. i just hope this is the time they take him lol. i really like tayshaun but he had his chance to shine on our team and didnt; he played how he always has. now its past his time and dumars should see that. we dont have a real starter at the three but daye and singler should be enough to hold us down in the lottery ;)

I don't like him at all.
We drafted Daye at 15 for a reason, let's see what hes got as a starter.

singler is more pro ready already imo. daye doesnt have the defense to be a full-time starter imo. id like daye off the bench for a scoring punch. i guess since we arent competing right now we can start daye but hes more of a 6th/7th man on a championship squad.

but we can see that daye isnt a good enough defender to start lol. hes too slow to guard twos and not strong enough to guard three/fours. but hes long enough to still defend decently the two/three. though, i still do like him. lol

I think as long as he puts a little weight on he can guard the 3 effectively because of his length.
I mean, he seen Prince do it for 2 years, no reason why he can't.

prince has such a feel for defense. his footwork, his length, and timing. plus prince is a whole lot stronger than people think. hes backed down power forwards and took them to the whole. daye cant do that yet. and defense is something you have or dont have because so much of it is timing and strength. if daye hasnt gotten much bigger then i dont see him getting that much bigger. hes going to be thin is whole career.

I still think he can give us like 16 ppg with average defense.

IDK, I strongly believe he could get around 16 a game as a starter. Kid's stroke is just so smooth.

Are we jumping from the Laker wagon so soon?

It's also convenient how you forget who the Clippers' owner is.
what wagon?

i've been in LA my entire life. i've watched these teams since i was 10
no wagon

and i was just saying i think they'd get a good free agent signing (or in paul's case, extension)

who cares about sterling? he'll spend when he needs to. as long as they get paid, these guys dont care

Apparently Kyle Singler is signing with Real Madrid and won't even be on the team this season.

Fuck you, dumb ass.

If that isn't the case, I don't even want him when he does come back. That's some hoe ass shit.
I HIGHLY doubt we asked him to.
