Do you have a time machine? Otherwise, get over it. Discussing what the Knicks should do with Jeremy Lin makes no sense. You don't get a redo. Let's look at past drafts too.

[russwest0]

Jeremy Lin playing some great ball as well

http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/4299/jeremy-lin

14 PPG on 50/38/80, and taking care of the ball well. Still shameful how happy Melo was to see him go, like he was glad he didn't have a dude stealing all of the spotlight anymore.

how could i get over it?
the dumbest move in recent sports history. the perfect player for the team and the town came to them out of nowhere. they didnt keep him, thinking we'll be alright.

now this is the nyk point guard rotation: BENO UDRIH

:banghead:

this is worse than sam bowie or tractor traylor.

Still don't understand how he isn't in the league anymore.

Even if he isn't athletic anymore, he still can handle the ball and has a wet jumper. Basketball IQ has to be better than a lot of the PG/SG scrubs too. Perhaps coaches and GM's really weigh the off thee court/locker room stuff more than I thought.

Yes, letting Lin go is worse than not getting Michael Jordan. Totally comparable. In no way are you an idiot for saying that.

the blazers needed a big man.
the blazers already had clyde drexler.
the blazers went to the finals.

in no way was picking sam bowie at the time as idiotic as letting lin walk for nothing...

Well look I know Prigs and Felton and Tyson and Kenyon are out, but as long as we don't lose anyone else...we'll be just fine.

Ummmmm Lin doesnt play in the playoffs. Lets not forget 2 years back he didn't wanna do the Knicks any favors by coming back at 80% (I have no problem with that, he was looking out for himself), and last year sat out because he was hurt again against OKC. I'd like to have Lin right now sure, but can we as Knicks get over him not being here. It's been like 15 months.

[YouGotServed]

Salty Knick fans can't even admit not resigning Lin was a mistake. :lol They thought fatass Felton would replace Lin.

Beno Udrih is pretty good and I feel he should have been starting over Prigioni anyways

Lin's injury prone too.

Delonte west?

[andremiller07]

Beno was very good for the Bucks last season I can't believe he could have regressed that much in one year he looks overweight a bit. I really thought he would be one of the Knicks better players.

beno is alright.
the problem is, he is the only point guard right now.
now what if he breaks down playing 35+ minutes the next weeks?

[imdaman99]

Beno Udrih is fine on offense, he is beyond pathetic on defense. Shump on Beal in the 1st half and he couldn't do much, Wall doing his thing. Shump on Wall in the 2nd half, and it's Beal lighting the Knicks up. I just wish the Knicks had a defensive PG, he doesn't even have to be breaking down defenses.

Is Gary Payton type PG too much to ask for this team???
lol

knick point guards during the melo era not including jeremy lin:

-injured billups
-mike bibby's corpse
-the ghost of baron davis
-toney douglas :facepalm
-half retired jason kidd
-fat felton
-old rookie prigioni
-beno udrih

all of them could claim to be the worst starting point guard in the nba while playing for the knicks.

[imnew09]

We feel the no pg situation.

No nash, blake, farmar:cry:

[niko]

Houston doesn't want him, let's get him back. He's apparently part of the Asik trade if a team would agree to take him off their hands.

The cap is locked up in the front court not possible to have a quality PG.

I do think Lin was a great fit for the Knicks but that poison pill he got the second time around didnt work for the team.

yeah right, now they pay bargnani 10 million and jr "33 pct" smith 18 million over 3 years...

felton and chandler for asik and lin. deal!

but what should chandler do in houston? play 20 mins off the bench?

Neither Barganini nor JR earn $15M in a single year, nor did either structure their contract so the Knicks wouldn't match. People need to stop acting like Lin wanted to be here, he did not.

Why would you trade Chandler for him? So we are back to square 1, worse than before now with a PG but needing a center? Houston DOES NOT WANT HIM. And they aren't trading us Asik.

Felton & MWP & Expirers for Lin to take his contract. Take it or don't.

i dont fault lin for wanting to get paid.
looking at what bargs and jr make, 15 million for a competitive point guard in his prime in a point guard heavy league isnt too bad. especially a cash cow like linsanity.

i wouldnt trade chandler for lin but chandler and felton for lin asik.

To be fair, Felton was pretty good under Dantoni and tandeming up with Amare. Then the Knicks traded everyone for Melo.

Even if it was the system he was in, Felton was decent. Definitely top 20 :oldlol:

[Horde of Temujin]

Just stop. Knicks suck. Accept it. They have one of the worst if not the worst owner and management in sports who dont give a shit about their fans.

In no way are you an idiot for defending them.

I didn't say it was good we lost Lin. I said comparing Lin to not drafting MICHAEL ****ING JORDAN was stupid.

if you think a comparison with Jordan and Lin makes sense, you are also stupid and honestly should never watch the NBA again.

WTF is wrong with the board and Lin? MJ vs. Lin? Serious?

He said in recent sports history.

You are stupid for taking what he said so seriously. Maybe his concept or recent history is different from yours or maybe he was slightly exaggerating for effect, Either way, chill out, no need to be so quick to jump down people's throats.

i am talking not about the outcome of each decision but wether it made sense at the time it was made.
of course not having jordan has a greater impact than not having lin but one can follow the blazer's line of thought. (if sam bowie doesnt suffer season ending fractures three years in a row they even might have won a ring or two)

[redhonda76]

LOL, the Knicks would do this in the heartbeat but I don't think Houston would be that dumb.
