    6 more years of Atlanta being swept out of the second round... if they make it that far in the "New East"

    Paying 120 million for THAT?

    Darko is accepting. Good news because that means Al Jefferson is a goner.

    No way. Darko is our Centers the main reason we didn't move Jefferson on draft night because they weren't sure if he was signing. The Wolves were very happy with Darko last season. He played quite well at Center.

    He plays well when he needs money. Once he gets it, he goes back to his lazy ways. I know the guy personally lol.

    Okay, so what's the holdup on Bosh? Does anyone have a clue? I'll take informed speculation at this point, since it really seemed as if Bosh would be on board almost immediately.

    I want this Wade/Bron/Bosh lineup badly, even though LeBron and Bosh are not exactly my favorite players.

    The first big chip may be ready to fall according to theknicksblog.com. It was accurate through the draft as they were calling the trades before they happened...it says at the end of the piece that he's trying to confirm...Again, dont shoot the messenger :escape:

    "A source close to Amar’e's camp informs us that the Suns big man is ready to come to NY and that they are currently, “figuring out the numbers.”

    I’ve somewhat posted conflicting reports about Amar’e and Miami because I’m getting info from everywhere, but it sounds like he’s ready to commit to the Big Apple and it’s a numbers crunch. One would figure it’s a big deal and a risk for the Knicks if Lebron does not come along with him."

    Heard that too about Amare/NYK. If Bosh comes here then I don't care. If Bosh doesn't come here then it's suicide watch time.

    Dude if Bosh dont come there and you do nothing major but keep Wade at least you got a top 3 player so dont even talk to me about suicide watch. If the Knicks dont land a star I got Danilo and a bunch of 60 loss seasons coming my way in the immediate future..... :tantrum:

    He has committed to a meeting with the Bulls for Tuesday. Don't get your hopes up.

    Although this portends that Bosh has indeed committed to Miami though..so It is good news.

    Like I said, Im just copy/pasting to share the news....

    But I would venture a guess that its possible that if Bosh may have a city in mind (possibly Houston) and that if Lebron truly wants a Robin to his Batman then Amare is the next best guy to get. Again, just theory....but I wouldnt be at all upset if its true :up:

    So Lebron is going to take a 66 million dollar paycut from the knicks.

    uh...ok.

    and I will sign a Max contract with that ****** in Houston before Bosh does.

    Also found this:

    According to Suns Beat writer Paul Coro's Twitter:

    Amar'e Stoudemire has received his best offer so far from another team but still talking with the Suns. about 2 hours ago via web


    On the Stoudemire front, I don't know which team made the better offer yet but those closer to the situation think it's New York. 26 minutes ago via web


    Also found this from a phoenix radio sports host: http://twitter.com/gambo620

    It's official-Suns and Amare have broken off all talks after last proposal turned down and there is NO chance he will return to the Phx Suns
    10 minutes ago via web

    Im a Knick fan dude...all I can do is :pray:

    Youre forgetting, you guys have seen quality basketball since the NYK-Heat rivalry...I havent :lol:

    EDIT: And for the record, I wont officially be dancing til people's names are on the dotted line on 7/8/10. And I'll only be dancing if its something like Lebron/Amare or Lebron/Bosh or if by some extremely unforeseen happening we land wade + one of the bigs. I've pretty much dismissed Wade already but not the first two....

    Where there is smoke, there's fire. Suns have resigned Channing Frye 5/30M and that could be where all the stoudemire stuff is coming from. I know A'mare is in NY this weekend to meet with the NYK brass but its possible this could have been hammered out before the media got wind of it....

    This guy reports for Hoopsworld....
    http://twitter.com/alexkennedynba

    Source close to Amare Stoudemire says he is done in Phoenix, leaning towards signing with the New York Knicks. http://tinyurl.com/35ahrug
