124 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 C'mon, lets get the Knicks in at least the Top 5 people. If Chicago can get the #1 overall seed last year, surely the Knicks can this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otter Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 This seems to be a one player draft. Hopefully the Knicks will get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rillo Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 8th overall, as expected. Hello Mr.Curry. The Knicks will draft another foreigner, some kid (PG) from Spain I believe. I'll be pissed again on draft day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gangreenman Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 The Knicks will draft another foreigner, some kid (PG) from Spain I believe. I'll be pissed again on draft day. My gut says Curry or Flynn... And considering theyre aiming to get Lebron after next season, either would be a good fit with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otter Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 The Knicks will draft another foreigner, some kid (PG) from Spain I believe. I'll be pissed again on draft day. Ricky Rubio will be gone by the time the Knicks pick. He'll probably go second or third. I would like to get him, he was really good for Spain in the Olympics.

Otter Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 My gut says Curry or Flynn... And considering theyre aiming to get Lebron after next season, either would be a good fit with him. I'd pick Flynn over Curry. Flynn is a pure point guard. Curry is a great shooter, but he looks like he'll be overmatched physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECURB Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Knicks will trade the pick for another salary dump... sadly they will not be getting Lebron... and will have a ton of money to spend for nothing and losing to show for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, because if they don't get LeBron they can't win. There arn't guys like Chris Bosh or Dwayne Wade hitting the FA market that year or anything. Nah.

Nah. None of them are going to sign with a depleted Knicks team that has oodles of cap room and no players... they are all going to want to be the one missing piece on a playoff team.

They are a terrible team with no real plans to get better until 2010... Top FA's that arent locked up before 2010 are going to head off to playoff teams or re-sign with their own team.

Most great players never become FA's... and if they do... they certainly do not risk it to sign with a team that is not ready to win it all.

ECURB Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 There is a lot of talent available this year... I doubt the Knicks land many if any of them... they also need to sign Lee and Robinson to extensions... Kobe has an opt out to become a FA in 2009 Carlos Boozer is available if he wants to be in 2009 Mehmet Okur has an option to be available Shawn Marion is unrestricted Ron Artest is unrestricted Lamar Odom is unrestricted Hedo Turkoglu can opt out Ben Gordon is unrestricted Paul Millsap is restricted Iverson is unrestricted Steve Nash can be opted out by the team Rasheed Wallace is unrestricted Jason Kidd is unrestricted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but the Bulls have plenty of good young talent and plenty of good draft picks... not to mention they will be able to trade some of their talent for a missing piece if needed. The Knicks are clearing house and not filling back in the pieces... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
