Look at the Posting and Toasting Fantasy Basketball Season 2 league... I'm about to pull a 99 Knicks.... except I will win it all.

Next year I am going to require that everyone make their team their name on here, I have no clue who is who. I am Ruben's Empanadas obviously.

This needs to be 75 words long so... fuck Stephen Jackson for getting injured.

And I saw someone mentioned Reptar in another thread so uhh..

Marbury inactive again; Knicks president Walsh will meet with coach, player

NEW YORK -- Stephon Marbury was inactive again Sunday, and Knicks president Donnie Walsh plans to speak with coach Mike D'Antoni and his point guard this week in hopes of clearing up an uncomfortable roster situation.

Duhon, You're Dead to Me.

We have a backup PG as our starting PG in a system that revolves around.. yes.. the PG. Duhon has been tooled the last three games by the opposing guard and we have a viable solution to this problem sitting there right on the bench and our coaching staff is neglecting it.

Does anyone remeber how Steph played in 06. It was exactly what this system needs. I am not saying he'd be perfect in it, but he would be three steps above Duhon. Last year was a shitty season for EVERYONE, not just Stephon. Just because he has had some terrible calls as a person does not mean he can't ball.

He carried this team in 06 when they needed it, he adapted his game that season as well. This year he was there all training camp and preseason, why not give him a chance?

I of course have a soft spot for Steph. Those 14 dollar starburys lasted me all senior year of highschool, and I give him much love for that.

I am probably panicking, but I think I can speak for everyone when I say I want an explanation to why Steph hasn't been given a chance to play.

It's that time of the year again.

Last year we were able to get a twelve team league together. Who is down for another league this year. What do you all prefer? Yahoo or ESPN? Once I get a good 12-14 teams I will create the league. If we get overwhelming responses we'll make two seperate leagues and the winners will just have to fight to the death outside the Garden. Deal?

This is interesting.

This is interesting.

Who do you NOT want on the team next year?

THEWILLY — Mon, 12 May 2008 16:35:13 -0000

Changes.

Don't say the whole team, because no matter how much we all want that, it's not going to happen. So out of these options what do you think?

Personally I think it has to be Randolph. We saw how Steph played two years ago, changing his system and putting the team first; taking over when he has to. We also saw a new Eddy Curry two years ago who was able to hang with Dwight Howard when they went one on one, granted the defense is still not there. Q can still be that three point threat off the bench.

However, Zbo... am I the only one that can't stand when he gets the ball? He does his little pause, up down move, and even if he is fully covered, will still take the awful shot. I think his acquisition destroyed any chemistry that was made in the 06-07 season.

So what do you guys think?

Who to cut?

THEWILLY — Mon, 16 Jul 2007 14:17:56 -0000

I like my rookies.

The Knicks have to get rid of two players on their roster, who should it be and why?

Many a website are saying that Isiah might stash Nichols and Chandler off to Europe or another league, but how beneficial will that be for them, if anything that'll just hinder them from reaching their potential.

I don't know if you can do this with their contracts (someone help me out) but I'd cut Jefferies and James.

Jefferies is going to get hardly any playing time with the emergence of Humpty and and Q probably starting at the 3, when he played last year, he didn't play well at all (every game i went to at the garden he was booed).

James is old and probably won't get any playing time with DLee subbing in for either Eddy or Zach. He had one decent game last year, however all of his other games made me have stomach problems.

It's time to wipe these two guys off the roster, forget about their contracts during the year, and go forward with our better "youthier" team.
