View Full Version : Knicks are Lebron away from making the ECF and being a favorite for the finals
STATUTORY
06-27-2014, 10:25 AM
PG- Calderon/Prigioni
SG- Shumpert/shane larkins/Hardaway
SF - Lebron/Ellington/JR
PF - Melo/Amare
C - Bargagni/Dalembert
that's the most talented team in the East and it wouldn't even be close. Lebron gets a bonafide scorer that can bail him out when he's having his crisis of self confidence in the 4th quarter in Melo. Shooters in the backcourt to spread the court ajnd can play off the ball. Catch and shoot and PnP players in Bargnagni and Amare.
very formidable team.
If Lebron had the testicular fortitude and really committed to eclipsing MJ's legacy, NY is the ONLY destination worth considering.

that's exactly the point, the best way to build a legacy is to take a "loser" franchise to the promised land. especially when its in the greatest city in USA.
no one cares about Heat, not even Miami ppl

The title of this thread accurately describes 90% of the teams in the East if you insert their name at the beginning.

That team would never win the championship lol
There is not ONE player on that roster beyond Bran and Melo who is above average. Hell, i'm not sure there's one who is EVEN average.
I don't know how the Knicks could have wound up with such a disaster of a roster, it's impressive really.

If Gortat stays in Washington you throw LBJ on there....
Not 1, 2, 3......
I think the OP made a line up error.
PG- Calderon/Larks/Prig
SG- Hardaway/JR/Shump/Ellington
SF - Lebron/Shump/Hardaway/Ellington
PF - Melo/Bargs/Amare
C - Amare/Dale/Bargagni
Their is only 2 ways we get him is if LBJ signs for 1 year then comes to the Knicks 2015. Wade opts in for 2 years 40 mill

Barg as the center or Bosh as the center?
Or he could stay in Miami and not join that loser franchise
Says the fan of another loser franchise :facepalm
@OP
Nearly every team is one Lebron away from making any noise.

Lol that defense would be horrendous. The only decent defenders are lebron and shumpert and shumpert has really fallen off, can barely create his own shot, can't finish/pass/get to the ft line and his defense is overrated. Had high hopes for him since he's from oak park/chi :(

When Lebron decided to go to miami in 2010 knick fans were salty talking about he not built to play in ny. now y'all back on his dills. plus any team that has Bargnani on their roster isn't winning anything.

Knick fans have to understand why everyone hates them. You have a lot of stupid, annoying fans.

Celtics, Rondo would fight Lebron and cause a lockerroom blowup

I'm not sure I've ever seen you make a valid point. Consistent, I guess.

Kyle Lowry
Terrence Ross
LeBron James
Amir Johnson
Jonas Val
Sixth Man: Demar DeRozan
Maybe pull off a trade for Ryan Andersen. That team would probably make the finals in the current East.

Why would DeMar be the sixth man playing behind Terrence ? Spacing ?

Yeah. Terrence is a better outside shooter. Obviously DeRozan is a better player.

Bos Celtics
They have a ball dominant pg who can not shoot at All especially from FT
a not so good frontcourt and depleted bench
Itll be like Cle all over again
Teams would not cover Rondo,Play the Either LeBron scores or team does game
Bos isnt very good at rebounding either so thatll be a problem as well
Chi,Mia,Bkn,Ind,Tor would beat them
and unless LJ avg high num across the board its not happening

Boston in their present form - yes but they could easily build an ECF team around Lebron if he went there.
