The Official Welcome Tyson Chandler Thread

[TR1LL10N]

With that frontcourt they went to finals 3 times winning 2 rings. I think that speaks for itself.

And I meant Bynum/Gasol/Odom of course.

I'm not saying that Chandler/Melo/Amare is bad but come on they haven't played one game together yet. It may work if Amare and Carmelo become better defenders, but I seriously doubt that will happen, especially If we consider fact that our coach doesn't include defence in his gameplan.

Ask yourself why on a Knick forum in a thread that should be something to celebrate you are the only one being negative.

It's an easily observable pattern...

and how is Carmelo doing in NBA finals? oh wait he hasn't been there, and never will be.

Why should we get respect? Only two teams in NBA are worse on defence than us.

sure we can win 4 in a row...in a summer league lol

etc.

etc.

[CuseGirl]

what? best frontcourt in the nba? LMAO

Amare - no defence
Carmelo - no defence

get real people and stop embarrasing yourselves.

yea, a bit of hyperbole there....it's not the best but the talent is there.....

[TR1LL10N]

Another lockout shortened season and another revamped Knicks team poised to take the league by surprise. I think we can overachieve with Tyson filling up the middle since it allows Melo and STAT to do what they do best. Hopefully we can nab Baron Davis!

I don't think it's hyperbole especially since even if you disagree they are #2 at the worst.

Yeah, I don't want to count eggs before they hatch, but it'll be refreshing seeing a legit 7 footer on the floor for a change. Also has any of you guys forgot about Kurt Thomas, maybe he can replace Turiaf?

[fender0577]

Kurt thomas is still in the league?If he is i'll take him, that dude plays D on anyone.

1. I disagree although they are probably the closest.

Tyson > Bynum
Amare = Gasol
Melo > Artest or Odom

2. That frontcourt is being broken up.

Please!

Gasol couldn't handle breaking up with his girl last year...
You think he can handle being on the trade block? Nope.

Odom was crying.

MWP couldn't hit a shot to save his life.

Knicks front court > the Lakers... easy

He just announced on ESPN dallas that he will sign with the knicks.

I can't wait for this move.

TC should partly make up for Amare's lack of awareness under the basket. He'll be able to relax much more knowing he's got a 7'1'' beast behind him.

Infact he'll help both Amare and Melo. They'll just have to funnel guys to TC.

If and when it happens.. this is a GREAT signing for our team.

Are you flip-flopping from our Big vs CP3 debate?

[Sprewell-Houston]

Which frontcourt is better?

THe Answer is: None!

Thank you sir.

We're gonna rule this year if Tyson signs.

Only MIami are stronger.

Let's say Baron Davis signs here for the vets minimum....man we're gonna tear teams apart...and I don't even like Baron Davis, but Baron, Melo, STAT and Tyson on the same team? ARe you f-ing kiddin me son?

Monster team.

[serendipity10]

Perfect fit, defender and rebounder. Now the Knicks need a distributor, someone needs to be signed or TD needs to step up his game.
