Knicks

users, the new season is here, and if you need information from a person that has contact with the Knicks beat writer, I'm your guy. I will have news and information about The Knicks, after Newsday has it of course, both are owned by James Dolan, and Cablevision (Stock ticker (CVC), I'm covering all bases right now).

The Knicks are looking to add Jason Kidd to the mix, I hope it is smoke screens for  Sessions. Who is the second best point guard in free agent market this year? Stephon Marbury, Allen Iverson, maybe Bibby, since he reportedly re-up with the Hawks. There isn't a hard line. Its just a well researched, highly discussed opinion, of who will fit in a particular system. Mike Bibby is a tested professional in pressure situations. His Atlanta team finished a little bit shorter than his Sacramento teams did in the playoffs. He knows how to play in space and stretch the floor himself too. The Hawks are smart to keep him. Sessions is the next best option beside trading for a player. He doesn't shoot the three very well, but that could be a good thing, he'll got to the basket more frequent.  Some beat writers believe that Nate Robinson will not be back and i buy that, (dont agree) but as a commodity that he seems to be, why not sign and trade him? Teams that want him, need to pay the price he's worth. I think that David Lee has to be a more expendable player, the

They won't be able to hang on with the Nets, Knicks, Bobcats, Raptors, Pacers, and Bulls still hovering around. Someone will make a strong run in the latter 1/4 of the season, and I'm hoping it's the Nets.

Despite a tough 116-110 loss in Philadelphia tonight, the New York Knicks are playing surprisingly well under their new head coach, Mike D'Antoni. The Knicks had won three in a row prior to this evening's contest, including an impressive victory over D'Antoni's old team, the immensely-talented Phoenix Suns.

Following the trades that sent Jamal Crawford and Zach Randolph packing, for a short while, the Knicks seemed like they'd be able to survive the core-shaking changes to their roster. Al Harrington came to New York with something to prove, and he blazed through a hot streak of games about a week after joining the club.

A week ago I posted that I thought the Jets had no shot of getting Brett Favre. Well a lot has changed in a week, as now the Jets are apparently one of two teams given permission to speak with Favre. The Jets have not yet done so, but they have talked to his agent Bus Cook and seem to be holding out in case the Packers drop their asking price. I agree with this strategy, as I would not give up a first or second round draft pick (which Green Bay is asking for) for a player who may only play for a year or two more. But if Green Bay gets so desperate that they are willing to accept a third round pick, even a conditional one that can become a second rounder if Favre leads the Jets to the playoffs, I would pull the trigger.
