You seem to be forgetting Tyson came here because he said he wanted to play with Melo AND Stoudemire
Don't pay attention to him anymore. He has this clouded vision in where he believes some stars were calling the Knicks daily to come play here when the evidence points the other way. This is an example of someone who refuses to believe something because he looks at how great it is to live in NYC as an athlete and seems up forget that the Knicks had arguably the worst front office in the nba for a decade+

Nobody was going to come here to try and be a savior on their own. The clipprrs had a nice squad before signing Paul...much more potential than the Knicks

Breh, the clippers have been the joke of the nba for the last 3 decades. That nikka Chris Paul didn't give a fukk that they didn't make the playoffs when he okay'd the trade to go there. That nikka wanted to get to the city of Los Angeles and didn't give a fukk which team it was. And don't say Blake was the reason he wanted to go there because if Blake was in Portland CP3 wasn't gonna okay the trade.

I'm done

3 teams offered Tyson a contract. Golden State,Houston and NY. Now plz tell me the odds of him choosing Houston or GS over NY even if they didn't have Amare. Nobody has ever chose GS over NY. Nobody ever will unless we overpay. The only reason we got Lee was because no bigger market made him an offer. Market matters in the nba. Small markets like OKC,Memphis,SA has to draft and trade their way to relevance while attractive markets like L.A,Miami and NY can sign their way there. Who was the last allstar NY drafted besides Lee? They're relevant because nikkas wanna live in NY not because they signed Amare. The knicks were the only team that offered Amare 100 million, if that nikka could attract stars like that then why didn't Miami make him an offer? Why didn't Chicago make him an offer for 100 million?

Plenty...two (Lebron & Grant Hill) were already mentioned in this thread
Remember that meeting Isiah Thomas set up to try to lure kobe here also? :deadrose:

Dude really is out of it when it comes to this NBA shyt. The knicks needed to sign Amar'e. There really is nothing else that needs to be said.

That's it bruh. Embrace the truth, yall got a top 3 market and nikkas wanna be there. Yall might can't compete with Miami and L.A due to weather and quality of life (plus Florida doesn't have state income taxes) but yall are ahead of Chicago and everywhere else. Yall can convince yourself that Melo wasn't coming unless you gave Amare 100 mill but when that nikka comes back yall gon be begging a team to take him. Meanwhile David Lee is creeping in the mvp convo. Last week Steph was ranked 10th on the mvp ladder on nba.com. This week Lee is gonna be higher than that.

Chicago was waiting for Lebron to make his decision. They didn't have enough cake for two superstars.

NY had a shyt load of capspace in 1996 when players like MJ, Barkley, Kenny Anderson, Reggie Miller, etc were all free agents and were all linked/rumored to being Knicks.

We ended up w/ Allan Houston & Chris Childs that summer :wtb:
