seriously the knicks might as good as the pacers this year

i really don't think holding on until the trade deadline would do anything

this is historically when the best deals happen, that been a known thing in the nba until having a media fire storm turned it the worst thing ever for w/e reason

kevin martin's 24 ppg: literally shittyson chandlers 10 pts, 9 rpg: all-star caliber.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:46 (twelve years ago) link
the knicks would have the worst staring back court in the nba, not even a question

this can be said abt every team in the league and you know it

kevin martin was top 20 in the league in PER, i had no idea

the knicks are a legit playoff team, if they have injury problems they are not, like the other playoff teams

heat, celtics, bulls, hawks could all have an injury to one of their top 2 players and easily beat out the sixers
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:50 (twelve years ago) link
kevin martin is widely known as the worst defender in the nba
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:50 (twelve years ago) link
it could be as low as 18th if they're the 5th seed.
5+5=10
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:51 (twelve years ago) link
20-18=2
8+4=12
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:51 (twelve years ago) link
if the 8 western playoff teams had better records they would pick 18th.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:52 (twelve years ago) link
omg its could be anywhere between 18 and 20! what a magnificent draft pick! i bet a lot of great players have been taken there!
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:52 (twelve years ago) link
why dont u do some research as far as the quality of those spots!
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:53 (twelve years ago) link
dude you're the one who brought up math and then couldn't add.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:53 (twelve years ago) link
here's what could easily happen to the knicks this year -- howard gets his trade to the nets, amar'e has to miss 20 games, the pacers make good on their free agent signings and jump up two spots, and the sixers stay the same from last year
hmm what does that look like?
1 heat2 bulls3 celtics4 nets5 hawks6 pacers7 sixers8 knicks
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:53 (twelve years ago) link
it could be 18 it could be 20 do you see
no you said that 5th seed in east = 20th.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:54 (twelve years ago) link
honestly you can get pretty good players in that range
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:54 (twelve years ago) link
you mocked me for saying they could pick 18th, then said they'd be the 5th pick in the east.... which could be 18th.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:55 (twelve years ago) link
yes i totally make trades based on what could be the best possible circumstances, hey maybe kevin martin will learn how to rebound pass and defend, think abt this what if this happened
1 knicks2 bulls3 celtics4 nets5 hawks6 pacers7 sixers8 heat
now what

5th in the east could be the 20th pick, it could also be the 18th pick, they both suck
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:56 (twelve years ago) link
but you said that me saying they'd pick 17th or 18th showed I "couldn't do math." and then you put them right in that range!
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:57 (twelve years ago) link
eric bledsoe, ty lawson, javale mcgee, jj hickson, roy hibbert, nick young, sean williams, rajon rondo, danny granger, hakeem warrick, josh smith, j.r. smith, jameer nelson
i mean these range from stars to very solid role players
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:57 (twelve years ago) link
well to be fair i said neither you or jordan could do math
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:57 (twelve years ago) link
yes i totally make trades based on what could be the best possible circumstances
i made a trade based on a report that dwight howard wants to go to the nets! i mean, it's certainly something for the knicks to be worried about. i'm not sure why we should pretend that it couldn't happen.
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:58 (twelve years ago) link
also i was using jordan prediction abt the knicks finishing position as an argument, i expect them to finish higher than the hawks
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:58 (twelve years ago) link
my projection is obv a worse case scenario but it's also entirely probable
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:59 (twelve years ago) link
what r the nets going to trade for howard exactly, curious
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:59 (twelve years ago) link
lopez and picks presumably (FIRST ROUNDERS)
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 9 December 2011 08:59 (twelve years ago) link
actually worse case scenario is both of their perpetually injured big men bite the dust and they're left with carmelo and a bunch of guys who would get laughed out of the rucker
even tho i was shitting on brook lopez earlier, i would prob take him over bynum if i had to make that trade
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 09:00 (twelve years ago) link
brook lopez and some russain whores, good thing david stern doesnt own the magic
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Friday, 9 December 2011 09:00 (twelve years ago) link
i don't think he's better, but i wouldn't take on the risk of bynum
btw can we just digress for a second and talk about how andrew bynum's knees are going to turn into tissue paper w/ this schedule? imagine bynum in game 5 of the nba finals this year? his knee ligaments may actually explode out of his body.

was traded for the pick that became brandon roy i remember for some ODD REASON wtf

i know i've driven the convo off course here, but it's hilarious how every time an int'l player gets drafted in the second round everyone is like "ah, could be a nice stash pick yada yada" look at this cast of characters all drafted in the second round of the 04 draft
