IMO, out of all the teams, I think the Knicks deserve a top 2 pick more then anyone else.

Im not just saying that b/c Im a fan, but when you look at all the other teamswho have a realistic chance of getting the number one pick, the Knicks are the only team w/o a young future superstar.

Miami has D-Wade
Seattle has Durant
Minnesotta has Al Jefferson
Memphis has Rudy Gay
Milwaukee has Yi
LAC has Kaman and Thornton
Charlotte has Gerald Wallace
Chicago has hella young talent
New Jersey has Devin Harris

Who do we have as our future? Curry? Nate? Lee? All these guys are good but they dont have the upside alot of the other guys have.

Stern grew up a Knicks fan, much like the 1985 lottery, the league will find a way to get us a top 2 pick. lol
You make a point, but I'm sorry a little biased. It's not the other teams' faults or the league's fault that the Knicks are in cap hell and have no future superstar, all you guys have to blame is yourselves. Everyone else has done a great job in obtaining young superstars unlike you guys. Just because you guys went to hell because of Isiah doesn't mean you deserve a top 2 pick. But, I do agree Stern will rig this and make you guys get a top 2 pick.

Eh...not sure you can call Yi an upcoming superstar. But they do have MoWill and Redd.

I'd say the Knicks have Crawford :D

Your right, Yi may not be a superstar, but his upside is "higher?" then anyone on our team.

And I guess Crawford would be considered as future talent. But not the type you can build a team around. Dont get me wrong dude is sick (at times) but he forces it ALOT.

But thats not a good way. Cause teams that tank (Miami) would get rewarded for tanking. And that just shouldn't be. The 2nd idea might not be so bad.
Yeah I personally like my 2nd idea better, lol.

When I had the chance to watch the Knicks, we dont have any kind of ball movement. Everyone played for self (except Lee, Blakman, and a few others)

Whenever the ball went into Randolph it was like it was going into a black hole. 96% of the time he shot it. The whole team was like that, we had no chemistry.

Crawford is a streaky shooter, when he's on, he's on. When he's off, he thinks he's on. I love the guys game, but it would be best if he wasnt our PG. He would thrive as a 2nd scoring option IMO maybe even third.

Hopefully.

hiring him as coach may turn out better then I think it will, I hope Walsh knows what he's doing.

I want Robin Lopez to slip to Detroit, I think he'd be a nice fit here.

I think Walker should wait at least one more year before coming out, he had a good season, but he could go much higher with one more year as the teams number one option now that Beasley's gone.

I've been reading and hearing that you guys may go for bill walker.
yea I think we'd take Bill or BRush(if he there). We need a backup SF before another big. I look for use to take a Sf then in the 2nd round we'll take a bic(C or another PF).

Yea he could but i figured when oj declared bill would leave. For where he's projected on going from mid 20's to early second he's gonna be a steal though imo.

I highly doubt we'll take Randolph. I just dont see that happening.
