That sounds like a lineup that can happen with rubio running the point especially since stat is going to be dieing to get uner d’antoni…….I too prefer lbj with stat it seems more real then dwade or bosh and I also see Joe johnson comming if we can’t get lbj……….

You don’t have to overreact to be a fan, I didn’t read that in the how to be a fan handbook.

And the Knicks plan on making a run at 2 major FA in 2010, and a player of Rubio’s caliber (Monroe, Harden those guys.) Really isn’t far fetched at all. That’s what the Knicks plan to do.

Haha of course.

On a serious note, I think the biggest thing that the great D’Antoni Suns teams were missing was an athletic big man who can play defense(someone out of the Marcus Camby mold). If they had someone like that, they wouldve been the favorites to win it all. Amare Stoudemire is an athletic big man, but hes a natural 4 and cannot play defense. Hes not keeping opposing offenses out of the paint and he would get eaten alive by a Duncan, Garnett, or Howard.

Fair point. Can I be your assistant coach with that team?

To say that you can win in D’antonis system with Lebron, Amare, and Ricky Rubio is not a good response to someone saying you can’t win in Dantonis system. I could be the head coach of a team with Lebron, Kobe, and KG, and wed win the championship. Does that mean that my system is a good one to win championships with? What happens if you dont get Lebron? I love Wade and Bosh, but there is not one person you could replace Lebron with in that scenario where you would win in D’antonis system.

yes. we will make no draft picks between now and 2010. along with getting nothing for lee.

and all of LBJ, Bosh, Wade and AS are gonna blow off the chance to play for a coach they all love in the biggest market around for a max contract.

If we did not overreact we would not be fans. I am not sure where you got that ridiculous lineup from that is laughable. I have your 2010 starting NY knicks line up
Steve Nash
Joe Johnson
Wison Chandler
Al Harrington
Eddy Curry
on the bench
Chris Duhon, Nate, Gallo and Jefferies

No one is going to come here, WHOA is ME!!!!! I want Mark Jackson lets get rid of the lying guy coaching them now.

I overplay losses all the time, but last night was brutal. I am very eager for success, but even if I wasn’t, last night was, as Tommy put it, “inexcusable.”
