i absolutely HATED the trade for tim thomas and nazr.
doleac and KVH were so much better for the team.

The Knicks sucked last year. The Knicks sucked last week. Now that they have Baker they will continue to suck and judging by the cluelessness of management, they will continue to suck for all eternity. Vin Baker is only the answer if your bar need more business, there's nothing he's ever going to be able to do to help any struggling team.

The Knicks are gonna get better in time. They only had less than a half season to get used to all the changes with the lineup. I say with all these pickups, the Knicks are younger and more athletic and with that they will have a brighter future.

the knicks are better than they were at the beginning of the season. are they better than they were with KVH?? mb mb not. Nazr is DEFINITELY better than Doleac, Thomas and KVH are a wash with KVH having the better outside game and Thomas having the better slashing game.

KVH fit the team a lot better than Thomas. KVH played hard... i have no idea where his "soft" rep comes from. Check KVH vs Tim Thomas' rebounding #s.

One trade too many.

I'm so so so sad they made that trade. I really felt the team right before the KVH trade had an excellent chance to go to the conference finals. Now they look like they'll lose in the first round to the Nets or Pistons.

BaboonGuy - Yes, now, but thats because they traded away or waived more than a half dozen white guys since training camp :) - Matt Carroll, Travis Knight, Maciej Lampe, Slavko Vranes, Michael Doleac, Milos Vujanic, KVH. Oh and Scott Layden (yay!). That's a lotta whiteboys. Hmm...
