The New York Knicks defy logic . . . again

Vote

by user DRE-LO

Once again, the New York Knicks look logic right in the eye and spit in its face. It was all set up on a silver platter for the NY Knicks. The pure point guard in Marcus Williams who had great court vision and can distribute the ball. There was one thing about Isiah I constantly give him credit for and that was his draft choices. Damon Stoudamire, Marcus Camby, Tracy McGrady, Channing Frye, Nate Robinson, good choices. The Knick faithful lying in wait hoping against hope that logic would win out.

Logic got knocked out in the 1st round.

The Knicks decided to draft Reynaldo Balkman, a forward from South Carolina. A player who most experts had as an early 2nd round pick at best. They would pick up a serviceable PG from Temple in Mardy Collins with the 29th pick. But Marcus Williams he isn't.

Marcus Williams is a NJ Net along with his fellow Uconn alumnist Josh Boone. What a mentor he'll have in Jason Kidd to teach him how to play the PG position. By word and by example.

This is the wrong way to begin the required one-year turnaround set by James should sell the team immediately and go jump off a cliff Dolan.

Someone come up with an offical countdown for the Nets to move to Brooklyn. Only then will NY have a real franchise.


P.S "Is there a record for most trades executed in 4 hours? The Blazers may have shattered that record.

The Knicks once again prove that they are the worst organization in professional sports. Isiah's justification for taking Balkman was painfully pathetic--they were worried that the Suns might take him? Please. Isiah should focus on his popcorn enterprise because he has sunk the Knicks.

You never know, he might be better than everyone expected. Look at people like Tomas Holmstrom (10th round), Tom Brady (6th round). If they can perform, someone supposed to be a 2nd round pick can still be brilliant.

Maybe Isiah has trades lined up in the coming weeks. You folks are much too bitter. :)

If Isiah has trades lined-up, they are most likely bad trades that will hurt the Knicks. The guy has no credibility and has destroyed basketball in New York.

I heard Isaiah's gonna send the Bulls the Knicks first round picks through 2018 for Tyson Chandler and an autographed Michael Jordan jersey.

Some people were saying that this kid may not have even been drafted if the Knicks had taken him.
