This will be very unpopular, and I agree as I am sick of losing too, but this would address both a PG and a star...
Don't blow your load on Bosh or Johnson types if we can't get Wade or Lebron, and just wait til 2011. I know, I know, wait til 2011 lol. Just saying With Jeffries/Curry off the books Carmelo and either Chris Paul or Deron Williams could be had.
Paul
Douglas
Anthony
Gallinari
Hill
A little undersized but maybe we get a decent MLE big or draft a decent big in 2011
Before you all kill me for this, yes I too obviously want to make moves to get good in 2010 as I've wasted so much of my life watching this team lose, but wanted to throw this out here. Would you rather miss Lebron and Wade and make some desperation stab and come up with like Bibby and Amare, or just sit on it another year and wind up better? Personally I'd rather root for CP and Carmelo too, I see Lebron as the evil villain ala MJ
Although Lebron would look fine in orange and blue. Idk, I'm confusing myself and I need a beer, but let's go Knicks, lets get good again baby
