honestly, rubio can go wherever he wants. all he has to do is contact his lawyer and its a done deal.
even though the knicks have sucked as of late, everyone wants to come to the ny because of its history and what it brings. patrick ewing..ny knicks…michael jordan..chicago. i can go on forever but the bottom line is everyone wants to play in the most famous cities. lebron wants it, danilo wanted it and had it and rubio wants it

Griffin will be better than Amare Staudemire period. You take him. Rubio will be decent…time to pass the torch…Chuck and Malone…gave it to TD and KG, and they wiil pass the reigns to Griffin and which ever power forward of this era rises to the occasion.

Griffin will be the Tom Tolbert of his era, a good, strong player that will need lead any team to a championship. Rubio? A nice player, but not a franchise player. I hope these aren’t the only players the front office is considering. If James wins this year, he stays in Cleveland ala Jordan because he wants to have his own legacy on his own team. If he loses, he might leave, but the Knicks better have some talent or he won’t be coming here.

Brandon Jennings is the answer. He’s the next coming of future stars in the league. He could lead the league in assist. He’s a better PG than rose. Time will tell. Has the NY flair. a la Clyde Frazier. Kenny Anderson with a 3 ball. Brandon and Corey Maggette in the backcourt. With R.Artest/D.Lee and a 5.

Sorry, but Vince & T-Mac have that “most athletic duo” title locked. And aren’t the Knicks still waiting for Galinari to be something, anything really? Pretty sure David Lee wants some rebounding help before his back gives out.

i think they should stick with Curry cuz what if next year they get lebron and chris bosh then they might be good. if the cavs win it this year i think LeBron he’ll stay in Cleveland if they lose i think he’ll leave next year

Ricky is not overrated. The guy is money he showed his game in the olympics, taking on the pros and playing very well. However, you take a big. They clog lanes on defense, they open them up on offense. Blake Griffin appears to be a special player. He looks to be one of those naturals, LBJ, Howard, Rose, all of them were naturals.

Ricky could be hall of fame and so could Blake. The big always gets the push.

They make everyones jobs easier. Front court players help to win championships, back court players help to win scoring titles. Just take a look at the NBA champions, everyone that comes to mind had serviceable bigs.

So take Griffin if you have a shot.

Can I laugh at this: “and i’m putting my money on amare playing in NY in 2010, so if anything they will be set at PF and need an elite PG.”

if ‘anything’ they’re ‘set’ because you like to gamble on stupid bets?

Good one mate.

Also: Rubio = Shaun Livingstons sans length: great vision, good pass, slow footwork, not really physical, weak shot, no range.

I think you take the more clear cut choice in Griffin. I think he’ll be solid maybe good but I don’t think he’ll be a STAT or a Karl Malone he’ll show some flashes but I don’t he’ll be great. And @ 36 that per 48 minute stat is garbage theres a reason he only played 24 minutes a game and that reason was he wasn’t good enough to start.
