~--~Official 2012 NBA Draft/Offseason Thread~--~

You're fuckin delusional, and commenting on the Nets chemistry issues, when you have Stat, JR Smith, Lin and Melo :hmm:

Who is the leader on the Snickers? Camby and Kidd are vets, but leaders :hmm:

He said an extra 10-15 games :lol:

Whoa, the Snickers might make it to the second round this year :eek:

whats wrong with Jr, Lin and Melo?

Chandler is the leader, followed by Melo and Stat

Camby and Kidd add experience in game situation

We lost about 10 games including the let down vs Indy when Tyson was out, we also lost games early b/c we had no pg and used Tony early... soon as Lin took over they won more than they lost.

A returning Lin plus a legit backup, spot starter in Kidd plus Camby being there in case Tyson needs to miss games or needs rest in games should give this team about 10-15 more wins.

The knicks biggest issues we lack of cohesion and random ass injuries... they never really got to play together, they have a whole offseason and training camp now... Tyson has already scheduled team OTA's before the official camp...team chemistry can do wonders...

Yeah I do question the nets... their cap will be tied into 4 players and all the good ring chasers will be gone by the time Dwight is a net, and avery is not a good coach...
 
Knicks now have 5 roster spots... I think Rivers Kid and Chris Smith get 2 of them... the Greek dude gets the 3rd... maybe Lewis and JJ round it out...
 
I love this knicks offseason... sad to lose Jorts but Camby's back!... so far the team has addressed major weaknesses, we lost so many games when Tyson was out... Camby will also give STAT a rest... there will be times where Tyson and Camby will be out there... another good reason is Tyson owned Dwight last season now we add a second excellent defender... add kidd and kept SHUMP...Kidd and Camby could give us an extra 10-15 wins this season..everyone's saying Melo is more motivated than ever before and Stat is back to beast mode...

If we can send Gadz to Dallas for Kidd we can sign Lewis too... Win Now...Let the nets steal the Headlines, the knicks are building a TEAM.

Right cuz going from last in the division (3rd from last in the conference) to potentially making it to the playoffs as is or earning a top 4 spot w/ Dwight is not building a team :lol: y'all are building a team a season after you had your headlines and signed your name players...the Nets will be there soon...just worry about your squad and matching that offer for Lin cuz y'all still need another pg...the Hornets matched for Gordon quick as shit...Knicks taking their sweet time w/ Lin for w/e reason

Lewis might be brought in since they say the knicks have interest in him. The greek kid is out until at least and they're are rumors the knicks will give chris smith a job as a player as a way to pay JR Smith's family some more money than what they can give him in a contract this year.
 
Damn all of them, fuck I love camby but damn Gina....If this was Miami let's see who this would've been....Norris Cole, Thomas Pittman, Joel Anthony and 1st round pick

Just when i think this Morey dude is a dumb ass who out thinks himself, he pull some shit like this

They will still potentially have a hell of a turnaround tho this season...and w/ Dwight still potentially end up having a better season than y'all in less than a year...only season's end will tell...but to imply they're not building a team...a formidable one @ that is just ridiculous

you guys are forgetting camby didn't even break bread with Miami after they got Ray Allen. Honestly I think he had planned to go to NY since the start.

Dude, why do you concentrate on the Nets, when your team has so many flaws?

Your organization is shit. It's practically the Clipper east. The Nets have at least been to the finals this century.

You have 53 mil wrapped up in Melo, Stat and Chandler, and you're talking about the Nets salary cap situation? You have to kidding me. Add Lin and that's 61 mil.

Now are Melo, Stat, Chandler and Lin championship caliber? That's barely second round. Have they shown they have any chemistry at all?

And you're worried about another team, you have to be kidding me :smh:

??? can't match lin offer until the 11th... league rules. they rn't taking their time. they can't match for 2 more days. Lin's money means nothing since they hold his bird rights.

As for spots.. have the knicks been healthy all season? Nope... we got Melo, lost Billups and stat and Melo was hurt... next season shortened year Stat played one game during the lockout, got hurt lost his bro...Melo got hurt... Chandler got hurt... Lin got hurt.. Shump missed games here and there...D'antoni was a fuck up... not one single person knows what this team can do when healthy and clicking, not one.

Of course ppl will say dumb shit, like last season "the knicks don't play defense" then the knicks finished 5th in defense. This season it's the knicks can't play together like there is any evidence of that.
 
I'm not getting into a Knicks/Nets debate...it's silly w/ me having been a Knicks fan for years up until '04...I have no hate for the Knicks...just mostly Dolan...I just think it's silly for you to be so biased to the point of being oblivious to the fact that the Nets got something cooking w/ their team in BK...and I know the Knicks have until the 14th to match but like I said the Hornets already made it official they will match for Gordon...the Knicks have not...tweets from anonymous sources don't count...don't be surprised to lose Lin...I wouldn't put that shit past Dolan

Nets have never won an nba finals, its nice to go but what have they won?

Lin only makes 5 mil this season third year its 9.3 but who knows what type of player he'll be in year 3... so its 58mil.

after getting dwight the nets will have all their cap tied into 4 players with like 7 on the roster...unless dwight and them are gonna play 82 games at 40-48 a game the nets will be out of it by the players, they have no backup at Center with Dwight coming off of back surgery... no back up at pg with Deron and his wrist thing... Wallace is injury prone and they have no backup at SF... they bout to s &t their starting PF too.. what the nets did was cool for them but they have no depth and waiting for Dwight has cost them Camby, Kidd, prob Lewis, maybe even Allen even the heat have backups...

Never worried bout the nets...

Sre the knicks a championship core? yea... they stay healthy and gel, play defense and score they can be as good as anyone.

but knicks doubters r no surprise a year ago they played no defense or so everyone said then proved ppl wrong... this season it's the knicks can't come together... we will see...

what do thr hornets have to do with the nets? Eric Gordon said he wants out and the hornets responded he won't escape. Lin hasn't said anything so why should the knicks especially when the contract is so reasonable?

The nets do have something cooking but they r also playing games.. their main media guy WOJ used to be a nets beat writer and his a nets fan... who breaks all the nets news? WOJ... Woj reported that Melo had agreed to be a net, Melo said he never said that and WOJ backed off...

Other sources outside of the nets paid ones are all saying Cleveland isn't onboard and Orlando isn't either... Also Lopez's brother said he doesn't want Orlando unless he gets Max money which Orl is reluctant to do since he isn't a max player...and he is looking at other deals just as Humphries is...

The nets do this, they use media sources to apply pressure they did it when chasing Lebron, the did it with Melo and they r doing it with Dwight... This deal is being pushed by Dwight and the Nets... but not every team is onboard...

:lol:

yup I read they r prepping a big ass offer to Orl for Dwight... they got too many players

Tony Mejia: Expect #Rockets to throw more kindle into fire for Dwight, further exhausting process for #Magic, who obviously covet additional options. about 5 minutes ago

Frank Isola ‏@FisolaNYDN
A league official claims a Nets deal for Dwight Howard is not close...we've heard that before & next thing u know there's a conference call

Also Lopez may not pass his Orl physical... and Cleveland is starting to get cold feet...

Nets don't have a finalized roster...but they are assembling a decent team...you're just too myopic to see it...after the Heat signed their big names...it took them a season to work things out and get their bench/team...the Knicks are now tryna do the same thing...after signing the big names a season later they are now tryna get the kinks straight w/ their bench/team...for the Nets re-signing Deron and Wallace and getting Johnson were good moves that have them w/ a better team than last year...getting Dwight would be a huge move this season alone...and they'll have time to build on that...

Nets have never won an nba finals, its nice to go but what have they won?

Wait... What :confused: (Joe Johnson, Gerald Wallace, Potentially teaming with Deron Williams - ALL 30 AND UNDER AND ESTABLISHED, AND JUST ENTERING THEIR PRIMES....

vs.

Kidd 39, has been, Camby 38, has been.... (Niggas last prime years were when David Robinson played with Duncan...)

Yeah your right... The Knicks are building a team.... :confused:

Woj is not the only one reporting this...and whose sources should I believe? Your biased source that had Nash as a Knick bcuz he was @ Dolan's bbq? Na I'll pass...anyway of course it's all speculation until the trade actually happens...regardless the Nets DO have a decent TEAM...as to the Gordon/Hornets situation I brought it up to show the Hornets are clear about matching for him...the Knicks haven't made it clear imo that they're matching for Lin...of course it's all speculation...but that's the fun part

what do thr hornets have to do with the nets? Eric Gordon said he wants out and the hornets responded he won't escape. Lin hasn't said anything so why should the knicks especially when the contract is so reasonable?

Houston can make all the offers they want for a one-year rental...the only team I see having a chance of swaying Dwight from his stance of doing a sign + trade w/ the Nets is the Lakers...

yup I read they r prepping a big ass offer to Orl for Dwight... they got too many players
 
Johnson is 31... Wallace has never had a healthy full season and Deron has been injured 2 yrs in a row...

Per Camby..
Tommy Beer: Dwight Howard was 2nd in the NBA in Rebound Rate in 2011-2012. Only player with higher rebound rate = Marcus Camby

Ironic, if Camby had gone to heat u and others would be sucking them off for the great move... he comes to the knicks and suddenly its a bad move...had Kidd gone to the nets great move!...to the knicks...he sucks... like I said ur a knicks hater and ur opinion ain't shit.

Nothing has changed.

I will say this though the only thing going on is Brook has to pass his physical.

The Clippers came in and save this deal. Marshon Brooks going to their team is good plus CP3 likes the kid

Still a deal like this has to get done soon and fast. Too many variables

Nothing has changed

Houston is willing to take 6 of Orlando bad contracts they have a chance until that happens this deal will put orlando in the best place to rebuild.

As Woj said Rob came from OKC and Spurs he wants to rebuild. He wants to clear cap space. He wants this deal. Now it's about Brook passing his physical

Brook foot is less of a worry to me. As Woj said Dwight's back is more of a question. " what if the nets see something but don't say shit."

Again it's so many variables right now. I'm not feeling this personally as I said in the Dwight thread.

also for the life of me I can't get why Brook would sign off on this

Orl would have to give him MAX money to sign on... his brother said so... this deal looks horrible for Orlando...

Couldn't have said it better. Rockets should Just take what they got now and run with it. suck for a year, get a good draft pick, then go get 2 max players next year.....FUCK Dwight he's a drama queen

Rob is smart man. He didn't start talking to the Nets till he felt there was no choice left.

If a deal doesn't get done with the Nets. He is stuck with bad contracts. Which slows him down on rebuilding the team.

Which only makes things worst for him. He never wanted to compete. The owners wanted Bynum. When Bynum said he wouldn't resign in Orlando they abandon ship.

Rob wants to build his own team from the ground up. That happens faster with this deal. If he didn't like this deal the Nets would have announce they have resign Brook Lopez

that's when you know this deal is dead.

Rob knows the Nets are not as desperate as before because at first they needed Dwight to keep deron.

that is no longer the case.

As Woj said the Nets already won. All they are doing now are trying to become the team that is under the Heat
 
Damn Deng left Olympic practice yesterday with an injury...can someone explain to me why the fuck aren't the Bulls taking precaution with him?.....This is ridiculous.
 
Crazy as a orlando magic fan....its like killing me to see this crap.... cause orlando really is a great place to play ball.

Doc rivers keeps his house in orlando.

Rebuilding is tough

I like the new GM ROB get as many draft picks and as much cap space as you can.

I really wish we could get rid of Hedo contract.

I dont mind Jason richardson and Glen davis at least they played ball in playoffs.

Good to see the young talent ball in the summer league today justin harper, andrew nichloson, o guinn.

Good luck to your nets Killa :smh::smh::smh:
 
I have no idea what the Bulls are doing this offseason. Can't knock them though Rose being injured has fucked up so much...it's depressing considering this time last year I was under the impression we could win it all...
 
Killa any news on Aaron brooks I think he would great off the bench or as a starter for some team i heard Houston wants him


What about Jerald Bayless he is a baller....Could a be a starter somewhere??

Dejuan Blair as well is a nice piece to add to a team....starter potential.
 
Damn Deng left Olympic practice yesterday with an injury...can someone explain to me why the fuck aren't the Bulls taking precaution with him?.....This is ridiculous.

I like Deng but I want the Bulls to move him badly. His contract is okay but it would be better off the books.
 
I just hope Dwight goes anywhere BUT Houston....someone needs to save Morey from himself....

Creed seriously all bullshit aside how the hell do the Knicks have a championship core when Tyson and Kidd were role players on a championship team...and Melo has only been out of Round 1 once..and STAT.....welll you get the picture... That's like me saying my Bulls have a championship even with a heatlhy Rose.

Shit him going to Houston might still work out in the Nets damn favor if Dwight holds his resolve they may be forced to trade him to the Nets ultimately...but then again they might even watch him walk away for nothing tryna hope to the last minute he reups w/ them...who the fuck knows what the hell they're tryna do in Houston

I might joke around with you but you been stand up. I will be the first to say Dwight is pulling some ho ass shit.

You don't say you are loyal then demand a trade after you opt in and the team made the changes you asked for.

Orlando will be okay. Rob learn from the best. Draft picks in his hands will be worth something.


I have no idea what the Bulls are doing this offseason. Can't knock them though Rose being injured has fucked up so much...it's depressing considering this time last year I was under the impression we could win it all...

FJP I listen to a podcast while I was in traffic today on the Bulls because I wonder the same thing.

The Bulls according to their insiders are about to have a front office change. Paxson is on the hot seat along with others. Bulls were not happy with Boozer and the other big signing after that was Wallace. Now they have no money to spend.

NONE!

They are not going to amnesty Boozer just for him to go to another team and they still pay him. Jerry looks at this year as a wash. They will go slow with Rose. No rushing this time.
