Game Thread: Atlanta Hawks (5-4) vs. New York Knicks (3-5), 7:30 PM ET on FSSouth/MSG

[WhySoInsecure?]

I feel an Iman Shumpert for Steve Francis trade on the horizon.

Right after we get Isiah back in his office.

The blonde sitting behind Melo that they were talking about on the post game show:

Carmelo and J.R. can't shoot for shit. Brick city tonight and most nights.



TRADE CARMELO

JR Smith is more suited for the NBA Street League

Like i said, the knicks were lucky to win the last game. The hawks are clearly the superior team and we see it now

Don't flatter yourself, the Knicks are at a low point and when they pick up they are without doubt the better team.

Atlanta Hawks have never been anything better than an 'eh' playoff team.

[hawkfan]

They need to add a shooter to help spread the floor.

TRADE CARMELO

Yes, trade him (which no one will give us much as he's free agent), clog the cap, have no second star if we sign someone else in free agency. That makes perfect sense. The worst that could happen if he leaves is we'll have huge cap space but instead let's fill that space with players and remove the possibility of ever having two stars.

That sounds fantastic. It's the worst possible outcome.

Knicks need to replace Felton as the starter (with anyone), shorten the rotation to 8/9 people, Amare not being one of them.

Priggy
Shump
JR
Melo
Bargnani

Bench
Martin
Felton (or Udrih)
Hardaway

When you have a tall slow guy off the bench come in, but Cole in with him. Why not? These guys are just tall and take space, just match it.

NO AMARE. NOT AT ALL. I'm tired of watching him.

The way shumpert is playing, Steve Francis might be a upgrade.

Trade Amare for Bass and Wallace from the Celtics. If the Knicks don't like Bass, then next year he is an expirer and wouldn't be too hard to trade out.

He's been better the last few games. He needs a new coach that will help him out, rather than Bald FckFace who keeps the leash short, and still calls him "Rook", even though this is now his 3rd year in the league.
