Make way for the new King
Exactly. But of course there will be questions just like it was with Amar'e :shrug:its not like we played defense before getting melo anyways...
This team isn't built to win this year regardless
Well a lot of us, including myself, questioned if Amar'e was worth that money. This has to do with depth.Exactly. But of course there will be questions just like it was with Amar'e :shrug:
Well they released the stat on ESPN when they announced the trade saying he's the 1st Knick to average what he does since Bob. But, Bob is a HOF so thats a great compliment. Though in no way am I saying he's Bob.
Bernard King deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
As much as I like Bill Bradley his stats are kind of pathetic compared to Bernard's.
Bradley was playing with much better players so he didn't have as many scoring opportunities, King was pretty much carrying the Knicks in his time here so his stats would obviously be more impressive. If you compare King's career #'s to Melo's tho you will see Melo compares favorably & that's even playing with a good amount of talent. Melo will be a Hall of Fame player someday himself.
Bernard was a much more dynamic player than Bradley, more athletic, and could get his shot off anytime he wanted.
Bradley was a great scorer in college and I think this helped him get into the Hall as well as being a two time NBA champion as well as his intelligence.
It is a joke that Bernard King is not in the Hall of Fame.
I agree with you Bernard should definitely be in the HOF, he was the Carmelo Anthony of those days, the guy was a pure scorer. I can't comment much about Bradley I've never seen the guy play, I just know he played with much more talented teammates so he had to share his touches more than King had to. Anyway it's hard to compare players from different eras. I'm just happy we got a new King of NY!
The toughest piece of the puzzle is going to find a decent big man.
I like DeAndre Jordan.
History shows that having two great scorers but a poor defensive club does not win.
The saddest thing about this is that Walsh was not running this trade and that maggot Isiah came back in from under the cracks.
Walsh will probably walk away. I know I would.
Too bad because we need him to finish what he started.
Don't get me wrong I loved Bernard and his sensational quick release jump shot and speed driving to the hole...BUT...you are not comparing apples to apples when comparing BERNARD to DOLLAR BILL.Bernard King deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.

Too bad you missed the greatest team with a capital T possibly in all of sports.
The Knicks championship teams of 1970 and 1973 were a very unselfish team and all of the players moved without the ball.
There were basically no isolations and one on one ball that you see today.
The team defense was unbelievably great.
How I miss those Knick teams.
oh, yes a goofy tall guy with wide shoulders was a role player that became a coach that broke Auerbach's championship record.
I still hate the Fakers though.
