The thing is, I think Galo could be a good player one day. Not a star, but good player!

I want him to live his resume before we write his RESUME!

I really need to stop writing you back! Curry and Jefferies contracts are guaranteed if they pickup the players option. Buying a player out still counts against the cap! You think curry or Jefferies would be here if Donnie could write a check and the cap room would appear? Therefore, Curry and Jefferies would never opt out of there contracts! Are you crazy?

Dirk can opt out because if he is double crossed by Dallas, there are 29 other teams waiting in line! Curry and Jefferies don't have that luxury!

I understand you are hoping for the best, but don't be stupid!

I'm a Knicks fan and others thought I was hating when I said the Knicks could be 10 games under 500 by December!

Again, I saw this train wreck a year ago! The problem with trading your best 2 players Zach & Crawford for what you got back was criminal! I believed there was a better route to take, but if we had a chance at LBJ or someone I could live that it! Donnie has placed the entire Knicks franchise on the roulette table 2010 black and the wheel is spinning!

I have been right so far, now listen to this! There will be no real star coming to save NY if we don???t move the curry contract, and I don???t see any buyers! The other option is to go back to cap hell for 5 years!

The Knicks will have about 28M dollars to sign 6 players! 1 star = 20M! We can use the mid-level for another player! That leaves 3M to sign 4 D leaguers! Which star is coming to play for a team when a 1/3 of the roster is D leaguers?

This gamble only works if Curry and or Jefferies contracts are moved! Others teams think they have a shoot at LBJ and others FA too! The only former GM that would deal for Curry and or Jefferies is Mchale, and only for Boston!

Again I thought there were other options! The truth is no Curry move no star! That Simple!

Here we go again! Boston was turned around because of a sweetheart deal from Mchale!

WOW Jennings did workout for the Knick! Where do you get this stuff from?

AND IF MY SISTER HAD BALLS, SHE WOULD BE MY BROTHER!

Galo is 21, and the only thing we have seen that was true from the reports is a very good set shoot if he had room!

Again there are 17 things my ex coach said I needed to do playing basketball. Jefferies can do 15 of them better then Galo! All of us would trade Jefferies in a second!

That is my point! Stop making excuses! When/if he plays we will all give him credit, but stop until he des it!

No not arm chair! Truth I have been talking about these event and what would happen since last year this time.

I am not Nostradamus, but I know what I see! Most of you listen to the media reports and the press releases, and run with it! Gman is a legend when it comes to that! However, if you like and know BASKETBALL watch the game and talk about what you see!

I saw the Knicks winning 30 games when Gman and others were talking 40 wins and the playoffs!

Now! I am totally wrong when I say the knicks can not afford a star contract and sign 6 other players without going back to cap hell, without another deal! Okay, we will see!

Time answers all questions!

Defense is not something you figure out! The problem with Galo is not his skill or how he can develop!

What make Galo a bad pick is it was not what the Knicks needed!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

It is not what other teams did. It is what the Knicks do!

Douglas was 29th. Galo today is a 6th man! He can't create his own shoot! Until that changes he is a 6th he drafted very high in the first! Period!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

That is why drafting is so important! Donnie has not shown he is good at that!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

Okay, then that is no what Donnie and Mike are saying! So the question is from what they are saying can you see the picture! I can't see the picture, therefore I must question it! If you think "what you said" is the real plan, then Donnie or Mike need to explain that to reduce expectations! certainly not talking about to playoffs!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

So could Zach averaging 20 and 10 again shooting 48% be unlucky and played for bad team? You said Zach shoots alot, but he averages 50% from the field! Also Atlanta is playing great ahead of last year, so did Crawford make them better?

Do you see my point?

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

JGB we have been down this road before! I do not see the FA money people are talking about without going back into cap hell! You said Donnie has a plan and not telling anyone! Okay I hope you are right!

What I see today is 27M + 1 star 47M + signing 6 other players ='ing No star or Cap hell!

Until I see different, I see what I see!

Gman you are laughable!

The sexual harrassment law suits was a problem and Isiah should have been fired! My only point is Donnie took over with better players then Isiah started with!

Therefore he do not make the problem worse! He did not fix it either, that is why he was fired!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

Isiah lost the team, totally his fault!

Donnie and Mike won 32 games last year and on pace to win 20 with the poor and stupid moves they made!

U R what your record says U R..and donnie and Mike own the worse start in Knicks history! That was your point not mine! Next!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

I did not start it! However I will continue to make the same point if people are stupid!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

Okay so what was Isiah supposed to say? Do you see how your argument has a double standard?

Of course you don't!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

I am starting to think you really don't have that Basketball back ground that you profuse!

Donnie took over a better team then the team Isiah started with! Isiah did not fit the problem but it was better! Isiah did not have A Zach, Lee, Crawford, Nate, Chandler and Marbury!

Talent alone! All of these players are better then what the Knicks has before Isiah!

Outstanding comment!

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

That is a point. How about Donnie and D'antoni talking all summer about the playoffs with this team?

Is that not delusional?

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson

If they got Tmac, the goal would not be making the team better this year! It would be cap for next year!
