What should the Knicks do now that Layden is out and Thomas is in? Should they deal away some power fowards...maybe deal eisley or ward...cuzz williams looks ready to step up?
I think Isiah's hands will be tied because Dolan has made it clear that he wants the playoffs this year. Until Dolan realizes that its these same sentiments that will hold Thomas back from taking chances, I think you will only see marginal improvements until Isiah can figure out how to get out of cap hell. I don't see rebuilding, but I do see him making a run for Tinsley.

Even so, I don't see how they do it right away without a trade that benefits the Knicks. Frank Williams may, and should get more minutes. Isiah likes point guards who can score (wonder why) and Williams has shown he can penetrate a bit and has some strength. Besides, they should evaluate him fully before trying to deal for a point guard. He might do well if given consistent minutes. I would hate for the Knicks to get someone else, give up on Williams, and later see him do well for another team. But hey, Dolan wants to win now with the lousy team he and Layden put together. I'd rather they play the lottery.
He'll end up making this team have a mediocre season, 32-38 wins, no playoffs, and get a late lottery pick. They should rebuild NOW if their smart.
they should start rebuliding but they need to make some trades soon because they are way over the cap!
I think that they are good the way they are. They need to wait until next year and sign a good free agent
