I am new to posting and toasting and after looking around am excited to talking knicks with you guys everyone seems insightful and respectful now I am writing a piece about what rebuilding the knicks could look like i dont think that should be looked upon as an option yet I wanna see this team with a real point guard (Baron Davis) running the team and see how the guys respond but in the event it still isnt working out the knicks should already start thinking rebuild before amares value shrinks more than it already has bare with me as im not a GM or anything but this is what I can see us getting in return for our three top guys if you think im being unrealistic feel free to bring this post back to earth ill break it down after the jump
Lets start with the guy everyone wants to see moved Amare Stoudemire he has a big uninsured contract but there are always teams really ready and desperate to take on a player of his star status the team ill focus on is the houston rockets who have shown interest in every available superstar recently they were willing to part with scola kevin martin and dragic for pau gasol and you can expect a similar package for Amare if i was the knicks I would tweak this deal abit and drop martin and dragic and try to get a package of Scola and Kyle Lowry those two guys are great players scola is very versatile and can post you up or be very effective in the pick and roll while Kyle Lowry is a budding star in this league averaging 17 ppg and 9 apg this year he is very young and if the knicks can push that deal through it would be nice to have a young guard to build around
Now if i was the knicks i might stick with that roster of lowry fields anthony scola chandler but lets say they want to move all three stars while im not a huge fan of this idea carmelo anthony is a player we could get a nice package for and just to throw it out there lets say we trade him to New jersey a team desperate for another star we can get brooks lopez and two first round picks which isnt an awful package brooks is a good player who can score with the best of them and picks are something the knicks will need if they are looking to rebuild the knicks may even be able to squeeze the nets for me because of how badly the nets need a star
Now Chandler a very good defensive player and everyone in the league could use size lets look at a team that really wanted chandler in the offseason and desperately lacks size inside and that team is the golden state warriors who could give us a very nice package for chandler maybe a young talented player like klay thompson a guy the knicksd really liked last year who could really grow into his own the next couple of years and also the knicks may be able to pick up another first round pick as well or if not klay thompson David Lee is also an option to come back to ny with a first round pick which would be interesting
our starting five would probably be lowry thompson fields scola and lopez with shumpert douglas harrellson still on the bench and now acouple of extra picks and with the success we have had drafting lately it would be nice to see what we could do with acouple first round picks the team we would put on the floor would be young and exciting and fun to watch learn and grow
i know you guys dont like talking rumors or things like this but its more of a thinking towards the future if things dont turn out the way we would like feel free to comment and let your imagination run wild guys and let me know what you think of my ideas of ways rebuilding could go appreciate you guys reading my post thanks
