A lot of people like to pretend Chris Paul is only second to Magic when that's far from the truth. Prime Kidd would have killed Paul.
Fuck the Knicks!. LOL.

All aboard! The Love train!
I want teams in the Northwest to see Flip's pick of Shabazz and start drafting bad players in response.

Shabazz will be better than anyone you've trotted out at the two for years.
... I'm sorry, Rodeo.

The haters are coming out of the woodwork and reilo leading the pack as usual.
The fucking Knicks have the worst fucking owner in the fucking league. Fucking manchild throwing a fucking tantrum, whining to his fucking mommy about that other kid across the river who got some new shiny toys and he will cry if he doesn't get one too right fucking now.
Dolan pls.

i called it
rebounding is not about height, it's about how badly you want it.
this is basketball 101
Come on, man. We all know Boozer is far better than Bargs.
Holy shit, there are REALGM Bulls fans that are mad at this, because they wanted to trade Boozer for Bargs. They don't even realize that taking on Bargs would have destroyed any 2014 FA plans, lol.
Idiots.
I was having a rather subdued and crappy week and this lifted my spirits. It's like everything I ever troll the Knicks for gets taken to the next level.
Giving up a first round pick and two second rounders for Andrea Bargnani? Only in my dreams, man. Only in my dreams!
Blackace

He came in listed at 6 5
Now he is listed at 6 4
But he was a huge body. Melo never applied himself to D nor rebounding
I am not a Knick hater at all, and this shit is hilarious.

Booz is better than his brother and Drew Gooden I will give him that much
2013 NBA Offseason |OT| At least we don't have Bargs
Come on, Ace, you really don't think Booz is better than Bargs?

Ehh, Duncan and Chuck Hayes both want rebounds desperately and their results on the glass are very different.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
Only thing I'll never hate about the Knicks is 94 and John Starks <3

I think Booz is an overrated PF who plays no D is one trick pony in the post and rebounds poorly for his size
So he sounds like Bargs with less range and one more post move

Thats the only way i can make sense out of this.
Now which front office is dumber than the knicks?

Yet nets will still remain irrelevant in comparison to the knicks.
NONE
no
obviously height plays a part, but history shows that the guys who want the ball the most will get to it more than the tall guy who just stands under the basket.
isn't reggie evans the best rebounder according to advanced stats?

Everytime I watched the Knicks this year, the wrestling belt shooter, Mr. Novak, never played, so enjoy having a guy that can't rebound in his place.
Bargnani
Pros:
- Can space the floor out.
- Is a pretty decent shooter.
- Has decent handles for a bigman.
- Is an okay passer.
Cons:
- Virtually no D.
- Gives you an average of 6 or so boards for a full 48. Don't even ask about offensive boards.
- His post game is nonexistent.
- Don't ask about his points in traffic.
- Has a horribly lax and lazy attitude.
- Did I mention his defense?
He could be useful playing alongside teammates that can make up for his deficiencies. I think it'll be all about how the Knicks use him in their system.
I'm sorry I can only make him look so good, I'm not a just not that good.

Every objective measure has him being better than Bargs, though. You think Boozer plays no D? Bargs is even worse on D. You think Booz rebounds poorly for his size (not true, he averages almost a career 10 RPG, while being an undersized PF), then Bargs is even worse at 3.7 RPG (while being 7 feet tall). Bargs career average is 15 PPG on 44% shooting, while Booz is 17 PPG on 53% shooting.
Even at advanced stats, Boozer is better. I don't know if you've seen a lot of Bargs play, but Boozer is better. And Bargs doesn't stretch the floor. He averages usually one 3 pointer a game, and is usually wide open doing it, as defenders don't fall for the collapse.

...and that, kids, was the first time I sucked a dick for crack
Dude, you know me, I'm a realist. I shit talk my team more than anyone I know.
I already had a meltdown on Facebook and when Reilo emailed me the bad news.
There is no spin to this. The Knicks are such a clusterfuck of ups and downs.

Between Bargs Melo and Amar'e you have 20 boards!
