smokes, i guess its cus i want to see chandler at the 2 spot permanently. 6'3 guard, a 6'6'' sg, gallo, a 6'10'' sf, lee at 6'10 and whoever else
Toons....all your positives on Curry is true that he is a Top 10 pick in this draft, I like Curry too.
But....u and I must admit for the first time in Duhon & Nate's NBA career they were finally given consistent playingtime above 26 mpg and not to many guards in the league out played them. For Duhon & Nate to be considered by many to be backups (which they both accept and does well), u have to give them their Props in holding down our guards spots for 50 straight games this season all by themselves.
In every Knick forum on the web this season the evaluation of Wilson Chandler has concluded him to be a "natural" SF. Whom has the talents to switch on a defensive play to defend SG & PF well (which is a natural SF duties). We supposed to be improving Wilson Chandlers talents at the SF position so he will be able to play at the next level when we do make the playoffs.
I want coach Rick Pitino's senior SG-Terrence Williams in this draft b/c he can do all the things we expected $27M Larry Hughes to do as our 3rd guard in the rotation. Terrence court awareness, running the break, passing-skillz, put backs, and defending SF, SG, PG, is what we are looking for to add to PG-Duhon, PG/SG-Nate, SF-Chandler, SF/PF-Harrington, and PF-Lee.
If we are going to draft a replacement for any player on our last season roster it should be C-Thabeet for Curry, or SG-Terrence/SG-Henderson for Hughes and Q.Rich.
We are not looking to build a Championship contender this offseason....we are looking to add hard working "assets" that compliment and improve the short amount of decent players inwhich we do have on our roster.
Drafting SG-Terrence Williams will make our ending contracts Hughes & Q.Rich step up their performance by working out hard this offseason.
We already know that Duhon, Nate, Chandler, and Lee works out hard every offseason at improving their performance as a team.
So replacing these players when we have deep-deep holes at other positions that need to be answered says what???
There is no Shaqs, Kobe, D.Wade, CP3, Deron, or Lebrons in this draft....only a Duncan in Blake Griffin (will Clippers hire a coach to help Griffin play at the next level like Duncan had David Robinson?).
