<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Steve Francis was traded Wednesday from the Orlando Magic to the last-place New York Knicks for Penny Hardaway and Trevor Ariza.</div> http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/bask...s.ap/index.html I dont understand the knicks. So their a team with pretty much three undersized shooting guards right now. with no true point guard. Marbury and francis are the same player.
I know, New York is stupid, they shouldve went for KG! New York right now has 2 ball hogs who just like to shoot, good deal eh?
I don't know francis can be alright sometimes, they also could trade him or marbury, i think they got a better deal then the magic.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Jerry West:</div><div class="quote_post">The Knicks keep getting more expensive and stupider as the years pass.</div> True. It's like the NBA has turned them into the leagues trash can or something...One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Hate to say it but the League's biggest payroll keeps getting bigger and the team stays the same. The worst run pro organization in any league.
they got rid of penny who was doing nothing and got a bonafide allstar. now they need to get rid of q-rich, and possibly channing frye, and get KG. imagine the line-up. pg : Stevie Francis/ nate robinson sG: stephon Marbury sf: Jamal Crawford/ Jalen Rose / david Lee pf: Kevin Garnett C: Eddy Curry/ Maurice Taylor GAME OVER!
The Knicks have no direction. You have so many tradeable pieces, why wouldn't you get somebody that can actually help the team. I don't understand that, it would seem very logical. But Isiah doesn't seem to "GET IT". Maybe they couldve got a shooter, or a defender. But they traded they're only defender in Ariza lol. Somebody has to be destroying this franchise on purpose.
I think the owner of the knicks, Dolan, is probably telling Isaiah "this is new York, we need a star player, keep trading for name players to see if they can be our franchise player" - if you look at all the trades he's done, he's always gone after name (or ex-name - Jalen is a classic example) players.
