You basically traded away Kurt Thomas a solid contributor in a class by himself, considering everyone else on the Knicks is a name that fails, for Quentin Richardson who didn't even have that much success untill paired up with Nash.

With the 8th Pick in the 2005 NBA draft you needed a guard that could replace Marbury, sure enough Raymond Felton of USC fits the bill right?

Yes he does but instead, you draft Channing Fyre some hyped up center the College analysts didn't even talk about, not even Dick Vitale who is so crazy about it I practically turn off sports center when he talks.

True the Knicks did get Nate Robinson from the Suns, but what if he wasn't there when the Suns came up?

What if, it was possible, that say Boston Selected Nate Robinson instead of Gerald Green?


Would you still have a 'improved' squad if Phoenix sent Gerald or some other prospect for Kurt Thomas, who was doing far better then Marbury's turnover-prone behind that year?

I highly doubt it, as the point of acquring Quentin Richardson is to get a two guard, you don't need the position jogged up.

But the problem with it is is that Phoenix did give you a prospect they didn't give you a starter.

If you drafted Raymond Felton, and waited to see what Phoenix saw on the board, perhaps they may have found a center that matches Thomas' play.

We'll see what happens come September but this off-season was only good due to the hype analysts gave it.

The Cruel and smart Analysts like myself and Chad Ford see the Knicks' as a team with a miserable future ahead.

Oh and a drama similar to Last Year's Pistons.

Have fun scratching your heads.


didnt really read the whole thing but i saw a couple mistakes......like saying the knicks took frye at 8 when they couldve had felton....wasnt felton taken with the 6th pick by the bobcats?!.....therefor we couldnt get felton even if we wanted him because he was already off the board.....

second you said if boston didnt pick gerald green we wouldve got him, but you forget that jerry west was itching to take green if the celtics didnt draft him...the griz were even trying to move up in the draft because they knew the celts were going to take green if he slipped that far...so we had no chance of green either with the 21st pick
