New York Knickerbockers


Recommended Posts

Knicks dominating the Pacers at their home on a back-to-back game with the score of 102 vs 88.

 

They're topscored by J-Lin with 19 points (just with 10 shots and played for 33mins. only), 7 rebounds, 6 assist, 1 steal and 1 blk; Amare had 16 points, 8 rebounds and 1 steal; Melo had 16 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assist while Chandler had 8 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assist, 2 steals and 3 blks; JR Smith led the bench with 11 points, 3 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 blk. Again, defense was the key tonight coupled with good ball movement and inspired play from the bench where Bibby was decent enough to provide relief for Lin in the absence of B-Diddy. Go Knicks, 3-game win streak baby~! cool.gif

well just imagine your 2 stars got 16 pts each on the last game @ amare 31 mins, carmelo 29 mins

 

versus portland

 

amare - 17 pts on 25 mins

carmelo - 16 pts on almost 25 mins

 

versus indiana

 

amare - 8 pts on 28 mins

carmelo - 12 pts on 24 mins

 

 

woodson is more of a defensive approach type for me. looking at the mins and production those 2 are making sums up that the reason they are winning is other players stepping up and they are playing defense. just like when linsanity exploded. those 2 werent there together once their back its went down. those 2 who has salaries of tens of millions brings in stats of role players. i still agree with trading of carmelo.

They should have traded melo to new orleans for eric gordon and chris kaman.

 

Gordon is an often injured guard that you tend be able to over pay.. the Knicks now has JR Smith for the offensive firepower while Shupert could probably provide better D than him. Kaman might be decent but they already have Chandler who is their defensive anchor, why pay big bucks for a back-up center. I guess you'll only trade Melo or Amare if it nabs you back the likes of Howard or multiple first round pick. I love Amare and Melo but I guess their problem lies in the fact that they are the max players for the Knicks yet they can't seem to consistently play like one and drag the team down at times dry.gif However, i won't make dumb trades if it wouldn't net you the desired value that the team needs.

As you said Melo is paid franchise money but doesnt produce like it,

he's over paid through 2016.

Kaman is overpriced until this year only, he's lucky if he signs for half of what he made in his nxt contract.

and a 20pt scorer in eric gordon costs 5 million this year and a restricted free agent after this season.

which will probably land him offers around the 8 million range.

 

what they get here is flexibility and multiple options to correct the anthony aquisition.
