<div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">Suspended from this board? wait now you're frustrated? good, walk it off.</div> Why would I be frustrated? I think the entire justbball.com forum would rejoice if you indeed got suspended or expelled, because you aren't contributing anything except insults and non-sense, twisted ideas. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">Phoneix got 3 draft picks and Lampe (Lampe leading to the trade for Jimmy Johnson who played a big role on their team) Think with your head, not your dick. Lol...wow you're knowledge of the NBA is decreasing every time you reply to me</div> Jimmy Johnson? Who the hell is that? Assuming that you meant Jim Jackson, he's still not a young player and he didn't play anything more than a second fiddle to Joe Johnson. Again, you could make a valid point without being immature and using childish insults. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">Free Agents: Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Richie Frahm (restricted), Damon Stoudamire Nick Van Exel has an expiring contract...lmao @ you...where are you pulling these things from now? You're desperate, just don't reply or you'll make a bigger fool of yourself </div> Okay, he had a player option for this year and I guess he exercised it. I made a mistake, but so what? Everyone makes mistakes. How am I desperate? Listen man, if there's anyone making fool of themselves here, it's you. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">3-4 years? Lebron will be the best player in the NBA by the time we sign him in, Knicks will be NBA contenders if we get under the cap and sign a guy like Lebron or Yao</div> How else do you expect the Knicks to go under the cap? You are probably going to say "Oh, if they follow my plans they'll go under the cap in less than a year," but do you honestly think that other GMs will do the extremely lopsided deals you proposed? By the time you sign LeBron? I guess you're Isiah Thomas and you got a verbal commitment from LeBron James that he will sign in New York when his rookie contract expires, right? Stop making such blank conclusions because there's about 99.9% chance that it will never happen. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">Whoa, stop riding shapecity, okay, so you admit SHape doesn't have any sorces? But his ideas don't make any sense, Knicks degrade in talent, and get two back up centers to start our front court, if we get Theo and Nasho at the front court, these guys don't have a reliable post game we can look to, and they're very injury prone </div> How does it not make any sense? I'll understand if it wouldn't make sense in your brain because you want the Knicks to go grab every superstar there is, but it will make a perfect sense in Larry Brown's mind. Mind you, he didn't say both Theo Ratliff and Rasho Nesterovic. He said one of either. You really need to learn to read the full post, not just the first couple of sentences. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">Listen up genius, Theo is a 32, we don't need another limited offensive center who fouls alot and only gets attention cause of his blocks, we need a legit all around center, Theo isn't going to be a long time center for our team, he SHOULDNT be, he has 3 - 4 years on his contract Nasho is just about the same as Theo, terrible offensive player, average rebounder, and fouls alot, and gets overrated value cause of his blocks...how....lol this is so idiotic, "Nasho/Theo" frontcourt makes sense? explain your self, and stop riding shapecity.</div> He may be 32, but he will give Channing Frye the time to develop into a starting centre. Why would you need an offensive center? You have enough offense as it is and if you need anything it will be defense, which Theo Ratliff is excellent at doing. Since when did he foul a lot? Because last time I checked 2.9 fouls a game isn't a lot for a big man, let alone a shotblocker. Rasho doesn't foul a lot either. He averaged 3.1 a game. It becomes really evident that you don't read people's posts thoroughly because it was clearly stated that it will be one of the two, not both. Besides, when your team just signed Jerome James to a 5 year contract, you shouldn't be complaining about Theo's contract lasting 3 more years. By the way, please explain how you are going to get a 'legit, all around center'. And no, don't post ideas like Michael Sweetney, Penny Hardaway for Shaquille O'Neal. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting j0se:</div><div class="quote_post">This is my scenario plain and simple, I don't have sorces, but this is how I would plan it, start the team over, keep our young core of Nate, Lee, and Fyre, and trade talent for expiring contracts, teams who need talented players who want to contend in the playoffs, cause right now we're just an 8th seed team with alot of hope, we're not legit yet, and only way to get to that elite level is if Zeke gets another superstar in here. Like I said, this cap problem is something we have to face soooner or later...but its like you can't read, you're too busy riding shapecity.</div> Of course you wouldn't have any sources, because no one else has the genius brain that you have. Your scenario would work if we lived in a fantasy, but unfortunately we don't, and the reality is harsh. It must've been said about million times already, but the Knicks ARE in a cap problem already. What else would you call a near $100 million payroll? It would seem that YOU are the person who needs to go back to kindergarten and learn to read.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MrJ:</div><div class="quote_post">Hey, hey, hey; let's calm down, people. Now although you might not agree with everything said, that doesn?t mean you have to take it to personal levels. This thread is another post away from getting locked and it doesn?t have to be so, either. So I suggest everyone stops the baiting, personal attacks and profanity and stick to the original topic of this thread.</div>And that post is this one. It's obvious that this thread is going nowhere because j0se can't have a simple discussion without insulting other people. THE END
