Rebuilding Phase?
Now that the cornerstone of our franchise is gone, how long do you think this rebuilding phase will take to get us back in the top 6 of our conference? I personally don't think that Minnesota will ever recover from this move, but I hope im wrong.
Your thoughts?

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
I hope you come back earlier, but I don't think you got enough for Garnett. Telfair sucks and Green is just a ball of potential. Jefferson will be a very good player, but he's replacing a great player.
The existing talent is okay- Foye & Brewer are good prospects, but maybe not future all-stars.
You should have traded with Chicago a year earlier- I understand you were offered the number two pick, Deng and Chandler- that's potentially a great starting lineup- Aldridge, Deng & Chandler.
One thing I am curious about, now that you have 17 players, who will be cut?

Hudson, i thing as of today, is gone. I don't think that Ratliff will ever see the floor..

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
What does being "built" constitute? It took us 8 years to make the playoffs the first time, and 15 years to become a true contender (which lasted exactly 1 year). So if the past is a good guide, we can enjoy horribleness and mediocrity until about 2020.

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
You need an "or more" option - look at Atlanta, Orlando, Toronto and Philidelphia, amongst others..
Getting a decent playoff team through rebuilding takes a hellish long time, and top 6 in the West?!
Hell.. You'll need a lot of luck in the draft for that, and even more desperately - a new GM.

How well is the Knicks Starters vs NBA Team Starters? 60%? 50%? 40%? or are we waiting to see by being optimistic because we have a new additional player in the Starting lineup that we assume Stat sheet record says he is better with this Knick roster than the guy he is replacing?

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
It all depends on who we draft next.

It also all depends on how we acquire via trade, but with the case with McHale, we won't be too lucky. Please step down and let the Mayor do the job. I even trusted him more.

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
Just imagine, next year Theo and Ricky Davis expire. Imagine that cap space from that alone, and if they can dump Hudson somewhere it gets even better. But imagine, Foye, Brewer, Jefferson, Gerald, and Bash. Amazing.

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
jefferson will develop before foye...and being a big man i think it will end up being his team rather than foyes...although foye should compliment him very well

Re: Rebuilding Phase?
It will be built around Foye, Jefferson, and I want to say who ever we draft next summer, hopefully being Rose...
