The Knicks Have Their Big 3 On the roster Right now.......Pontenially

Most Knick Fans are excited about this season. We did not get Lebron or Wade but, we did get Amare someone who will embrace the city and take on the challenge of helping the knicks get back to the playoffs. I know 99 Mill also helped but, i believe it's a little more than that but, Amare in my opinion isn't the most important player this season. We know your gonna get your 24-25 pionts and 8 Rebounds every night from him. To me Anthony Randolph and Danilo Gallinari are the two most important Knicks this Season. It seems like every basketball website has the Knicks as an 8th seed. If Randolph and Gallo can turn out to be what we think. This team could be dangerous. Think about it, Randolph is a 6'11 versatile athlete who can play multiple position who should be an all-star some say a superstar. We know what Gallo can do. There's a lot of Gallo Naysayers but, I'm one of the hand full of people from day one who thinks he can be a star. Most people will say (Who doesn't watch the Knicks) he can only shoot. That's not true. Shooting is what he does best, he can do more than shoot. He's a good defender he can put the ball on the floor he makes good basketball plays and most of all he's a competitor.Who wants to be the best and compete against the best in the NBA. That alone can bring the best out of a player.

I believe the Knicks could potentially have their own big three Amare,Gallo, and Randolph. Lets hope They Grow into what we think they can. The sky is the limit for this team if than can.

Told You Fields Could You Be A Sleeper

The night the Knicks drafted Landry Fields and Andy Rautins i was disappointed like every other knick fan. I thought I already knew what Andy Rautins could bring to the table, but i never watched Fields play.

Fields Showed at Summer League he has a Knack for the ball i could see why he average 9 rebounds per game in college. He athletic he runs the floor and shows he can finish. He also showed he has a good shot.


Article I wrote on June 25

When the Knicks took Andy Rautins and Landry Feilds. Like every other Knick Fan I was Scratching my head. Not just because I've never heard of Landry Feilds, but because all the Knicks Targets were gone Vasqeuz,Brackins,Armon Johnson, and Darington Hobson. I've seen Rautins play a lot this year i know what he can bring. As soon as the Knicks Drafted Landry Feilds I went to checkout some highlights of him. I know highlights don't tell everything about a player, but what you can tell about Feilds right away is his great size at 6'7/6'8 at his position G/F and his Athletic ability. He has a nice form to his shot. He seems to have an Nba Body he seems to have a good basketball Iq.

Suns Interested In David Lee ?

Via Yahoo sports

Should the Suns lose Stoudemire, sources say Sarver is considering the possibility of making a push for New York Knicks free-agent forward David Lee(notes). For the cost-cutting Sarver, Lee could be obtainable for $20 million-$30 million less over the life of a contract. Lee could command a five-year contract worth around $60 million. It would likely take the renouncing of valued bench player Channing Frye(notes) for the Suns to aggressively pursue Lee.

My Convo With Broussard... Nothings Going to Change this Guys Mind !


Me -@Chris_Broussard Its funny how you really believe its 100 % basketball with lebron.

Chris_Broussard - @Mylove4sports Marketing and brand is important to LJ too, but winning titles is only thing that helps his brand, not being in certain city


Me- @Chris_Broussard if Lebron just wins one in New york it would count as 2 or 3 everybodys not like jordan or kobe winning 5 or 6 titles

Me- @Chris_Broussard its hard enough to win one championship. He really expects to win 4 or 5 titles ?


Chris_Broussard - @Mylove4sports for the guys he's being compared to - MJ, Kobe, Magic. He's got to


Me-@Chris_Broussard the diffrence between him and MJ Jordan would take the knicks as a challenge instead of trying to take the "easy" way out


Chris_Broussard @Mylove4sports MJ was a free agent in '96. he coulda joined Knicks


No changing his Mind.

Fields Could Have Been a First Round Pick ? Maybe Even in the Lottery at One time ?

Ever since the Knicks Drafted Landry Fields I've been doing research on him because no one has heard of him. Especially on the east coast. The more I watch him the more i don't understand why he wasn't projected as a first round pick. I think it had to do with things he couldn't control. Like his conference and team. I truly believe if fields would have taken his team deep into the NCAA tournament. He wouldn't been in the spotlight, and would've gotten picked in the first round. Fields has a lot of tools to be a first rounder at his postion. He has great size 6'7-6'8 he has a 39 inch vertical. He can get to the basket and finish, he has a pretty good shot, he also has potential to become a good perimeter defender with his size, athleticism and quickness. Fields is a good rebounder at his postion, he average 9 per game. One thing I've noticed about him. He gets easy baskets, by moving without the ball and offensive rebounds.


I really Believe The Knicks might have a steal. He will have a nice summer league and people will jump on the bandwagon.


This is an interesting article I found on Fields by slamonline.com which was posted on Feb 1st this year


Via Slamonline.com


PROS

Talented Scorer

Fields is far from a one trick pony when it comes to getting buckets. He has a solid spot up J, can put the ball on the floor and can score with his back to the basket. Landry Fields is even good for the floaters off the dribble and can finish in the paint. His three point shooting hasn’t been the greatest this season but he’s not awful from behind the stripe. Nevertheless his form has enough promise for him to call attention on the perimeter in the League.

Athlete
Landry is quick in the open court and can make a poster out of defenders if he creates enough room. He’s also good for put back dunks. This advantage will be vital in the pro game as he’ll have to finish against faster, stronger defenders as a swingman. Additionally it’ll be interesting to see if he can keep up on the wing in a league full of swift slashers. His speed also comes in handy for his next asset.

Stealing
Two steals a contest with multiple 3+ steal efforts proves Landry’s patience on the ball and in the passing lanes. It’s one of the biggest turnarounds in his game aside from scoring and it’s not like he wasn’t picking pockets last year. He can make a killing if he can get picks when teams rotate the ball or set up isos.

Offensive Rebounding
This strong point may be largely attributed to the NCAA-level ball he’s up against. But a healthy amount of his 8 boards a night come from playing the offensive glass. Going for rebounds as well as steals says something about his ability to hustle for more scoring opportunities as a scorer and a team player.

CONS

Turnover Prone
Fields can get kind of careless with the ball. Whether it’s a bad pass or getting too dribble-happy on the wing he’ll have to defer to the point more until he improves his offensive awareness. Additionally, it’s somewhat nagging to get on his low rate of dimes as the team’s top scorer but they go hand in hand when you look at his assists to turnover ratio.

Blocking
It’s somewhat perplexing that Landry’s capable agility and length doesn’t rake in more swats. It’s especially concerning when you notice he’s just as big if not bigger than most of the guards and forwards he goes up against.

Free-Throw Shooting
Thankfully this is a snag that can be alleviated with practice and dedicLandry Fieldsation so it’s not a huge deal. Plus with Field’s growth as a scorer you’d assume that he’d highlight this flaw when transitioning to the pros like many before him. Nevertheless it’s something that he has to assess as he goes to the line often.

Pull-Up Jumper
When Landry drives most of the time he’ll attempt to finish at the rim or dish it out to a teammate. He seldom shoots off the dribble because the defense he’s currently up against allows it. He won’t have the luxury to coast into the lane and attract attention as often at the pro-level. If he wants to carry on his reputation as a prolific scorer he’ll have to sharpen this difficult technique to the repertoire. If not then he’ll find that those scoring lanes won’t be open for exploitation nearly as often.

CONCLUSION

Landry’s offensive skill set looks great now but it’ll have to adapt to a much faster NBA game. This may not be as big a hurdle as it sounds as he’s quick enough to become a scoring option off the bench. The main issue for him will be learning how to take better care of the ball against seasoned vets. He already gives it away too often against amateur level competition so it’ll be a sore spot in his rookie season should he get proper PT. Fields is a first rounder as he has the right size and athletic range to be a competent 3 in the Association. He can sneak into the Lottery if he can somehow lead Stanford can into the NCAA Tournament and has an impressive showing.
