I wonder if Dantoni would play Hill at SG...hes still a very good defender and he can score. I like the idea of signing him
Which Bibby are you talking about?
The Bibby of 5-10 years ago... or the soon to be 33 year old who's only averaging 8 points & 3 assists per game this year? His NBA career is just about over. Nothing more than a solid backup these days. You know why he's a starter with MIA? By default. Not because of talent, but because of default.
TD23's career is just getting started.
With LeBron, Wade & Bosh? Dude should be putting up 8-10 assist's per game. He's not the same Bibby that he once was during his golden years with the Kings. That Bibby will never return.
Any Knicks fan who would seriously start a 33 year old Bibby over an up & coming Toney Douglas doesn't deserve insight. Toney Douglas is one hell of an athlete, an up & coming talent, adds tough defense to the PG position, he's on the verge of gaining the much needed playoff experience learning behind Billups, & will head into next year as a three year pro with two full years under his belt of learning MDA's offensive system.
Bibby over TD? No.
I don't see why you guys would want Bibby, the last thing we need is a guy that ignores defense.As far as Bibby goes, if Billups is still here then obviously he's not gonna be offered most likely, but if Billups isn't, then I don't know who should start. I think TD is coming along enough that he should start over Bibby. I used to see Douglas jack up every shot possible, now he's sharing the ball a lot more. He's not great at assisting, but he's still in second year.
Also, his defense, so yeah.
Age is not a factor though. 33 aint old anymore. Look at Nash putting up MVP-type numbers at 37. Look at Hill moving like he's 31.
I haven't followed Bibby much so I don't know about his defense, but unless it's good, then I'd rather have Iverson and/or T-Mac (though I'm partially biased with that).
I don't, was just talking about hypothetically.I don't see why you guys would want Bibby, the last thing we need is a guy that ignores defense.
I don't, was just talking about hypothetically.
I haven't been watching much of Bibby so I don't know how he's been doing offensively, but it doesn't sound like it has been that good.
Iverson and T-Mac still could get it done offensively (and steal the ball, deflect, etc.)
I'm fine with Anthony Carter being our back-up. I love his tempo and even Breen pointed it out.
Just finished watching Grant Hill mixes and am about to go to bed. I'd be so happy if we got Grant.
ZaZa Pachuila for a 2Yr 3million Contract he will hold down the C spot for 12-18min and adds the toughness you need in the playoffs. He went toe to toe with Garnett everytime they play the Celtics and is a good rebounder and enforcer the type of nasty player we need.
Yup. The championship Knicks didn't win with just three superstars. Complete team and team play.Yes, Fields will become an all around all-star some day. I truly believe it. The kid plays with a championship style of play & even if he never gets selected & voted as an all-star... Wouldn't take away the fact that he's an all-star player. If he continues to develope like this? He may never become a superstar but he has all the potential in the world to become a promising young star for the Knicks.
In closing...
-Draft pick(s)
-Talented FA Center to become complete.
-Fields from here on out developing.
-TD23 after getting an extension.
-Deep bench that can contribute.
How could anyone trade all of that (our farm & future) for CP3? CP3 has yet to prove that he can stay healthy & yeah, he's an amazing PG but I still take Rose & D-Will over CP3 (because of previous related injuries). I would also say Rubio other than the fact that I've yet to see Rickey make an impact on an NBA level.
I want a real franchise. A real championship contender. A strong 8-9 man rotation that creates a deep team.
