Pretty sick for my Knicks.
Yeah, I'm trying to switch over from Nets to Knicks. No joke. As long as the 5th pick isn't a foreigner, I think it might happen.

Maybe this will help the Knicks out. I mean they can't possibly be worse than last year. I guess they can actually.

It'll take time before they're anything, but at least now they'll be cohesive offensively. They'll go from a team of chuckers to an organized team of chuckers. Q had his best season under D'Antoni, Nate, Crawford, Steph, Balkman, Lee, Chandler...Jeffries even, are all the kinds of guys athletic players D'Antoni would love. I just hope he keeps his rotation open instead of limiting it, because it sucks to see Collins, Balkman, Chandler all go without minutes for large chunks of the season.
Can't say anything about defensive expectations with D'Antoni coaching, but the fact is, the Knicks really only have 2 or 3 good defenders on the roster. Also can't say what it will mean for Curry and Randolph, but I know it's a signing that sees past these guys because the Knicks have no interest in keeping them around.
Can't wait for the draft. A team that can score in the East can always compete, unless they're like the Bucks, who just are miserable.

Will he really make that much of a difference? I mean the attitude and overall skill level of most of the Knicks players is horrible.

The Knicks are still going to be terrible, but it will be fun to watch them some games now

I'm not excited about this nor do i hate it. Moves need to be made. Randolph or Curry needs to go. Jefferies and James salary need to go. Q needs to go. As a knick ive learned to be optimistic. We still have the draft, they need to hire a gm, and offseason moves. We'll c though

Marbury for Barbosa, Diaw +?
If the Knicks could pull that off it would make them better, but it'd also affect future cap space to go after LBJ. Suns need to rebuild at some point so this deal does make a bit of sense for them. For the Knicks a lineup of Robinson-Barbosa-Richardson-Diaw-Lee would be able to play like DAntoni wants.

I like Barbosa but don't see the point. Walsh also promised no long-term contracts. It's really not worth it, he's no answer and they need to commit to fixing their cap situation.

I just don't see the point for the Knicks. They get better in the short term, and maybe they believe thats more important to eb the tide of negative press against the Knicks. Barbosa is a very nice player, but Diaw is just mediocre.

Barbosa is a very nice player, but Diaw is just mediocre. I actually like Diaw a lot. He's a smart defender who'd be their best post defender immediately, and they need someone who can pass from the post and help run an offense without always dribbling. But yeah, they'd be exciting additions, but thinking ahead, it's not worth it.
