The KP Robinson Knox frontcourt is worth waiting for.

Reports say Minny is in no way interested in signing a released Noah at the minimum. The same reports still have the Knicks intent on stretching him before the season.

Who is more likely to be on a roster in October, Bynum or Noah?

Would look good in Knicks colors

Based on what?

NEED

You have outdone yourself. 

What need presupposes we pursue a 30 year old wash out who hasn't played in four years and who was physically and emotionally underwhelming when last he deigned to rehab or play? 

I'd rather have Noah. 

For that matter, if we are talking about an old school low post offensive center, why go for a gimpy mirage when we have a younger, healthier center in Brother Kanter, who is a better rebounder and FT shooter. 

And team mate.  I mean, because Bynum is a jerk.  Remember his going away ultra-cheap shot foul in the playoffs?  Hmmmm?

But hey, I'm a fucking moron.   

Duly noted. 

PS: Yes, Mitchell Robinson is slotted for G-League.  And youth is overrated. Heh.

A washout.

Wow.

I don't see the problem with taking a look

Chip has proclaimed my guy Kanter to be above Andrew Bynum, a comeback candidate to the league looking for a minimum deal.

Brilliant, that Chip.

Yes, let's bring an immature, selfish, creaky player, four years out of the league (sporting crappy knees when last spotted among the living), on board for the minimum deal so he can pollute the gene pool, postpone the development of Kornet and Robinson, and create a log jam to prevent Kanter from discovering his true level under Coach Fizdale. 

I must confess that I did not immediately apprehend the sheer brilliance of your inspiration.  Player development at its best.  No wonder Scott Perry never makes a move without first consulting you. 

But then, mere mortals are honored to bask in your penumbra. 

Shine on...

Minus Noah -if Kanter is shitcanned for 4th quarters again this guy could be a nice C option

You forgot how good Bynum was.

I forgive you.

(Fuck - he aint choosing us anyway - so lets close this case)

Bless you father.

Oh, and I DO recall how good he was...WAS.

We drafted Channing Frye ahead of him, and it quickly appeared that the Lakers had made a reach (Praise MITCHELL ROBINSON) that was going to pay dividends.  Of course, early in the the first round us even more daring. 

As for Kanter being pulled in the fourth quarter?

THAT was on Hornacek. 

And I would way way prefer Noah over Bynum. 

Nighty NIGHT.

If we’re going to take a flyer on a redemptive return, I’d prefer Bosh (if enough doctors sign off) to Noah, Bynum, or Bellamy.

Noah has a head's up on Bellamy.

Heck, if Bellamy is in the mix, I'd prefer the Knicks take Reed as they did the last time they chose between the two.

Walt Bellamy?

Without using the Google machine, (which full disclosure I did and I got the question wrong)

What was Bells 1st NBA team and who did he play for in his 2nd season?

And why would the Knicks use a roster spot on Bynum? Will he help 2-3 years from now?  Is he a mentor for young Knicks bigs?

Thank you.

Kiid seems to believe that our current passion for youth is misplaced. 

Oh well. 

PS: Chicago Packers, which beget the Chicago Zephyrs, which beget the Baltimore Bullets.

PPS: And whom did the Knicks trade to the Bullets to get Bellamy in trade?

Bynum may be only 30, but his knees might be 70.

IMO Knicks should stick with kids this year, take their lumps, let them learn and grow, see who has a future and who doesn't, don't rush KP back and collect a decent lottery pick,

wash, rinse repeat.

IMO the tough part for Fizz is don't let the kids get too discouraged on what is going to be a discouraging year at times.
