Knick's may pursue Kwame Brown


Recommended Posts

Kwame Brown is on their radar after having a serviceable season with Charlotte (7.9 points, 6.8 rebounds, 51.7 percent shooting). Michael Jordan's former No. 1 draft bust is 6-11, 270 pounds and though he has hands of stone, he can defend, rebound and block shots -- the only Knicks requirements.

I personally would like to see Kwame Brown back in a Bobcats uniform next year because he is kind of like MJ's project that started off horrible, but gets predominantly better.

PG - Augustin - Walker

SG - Henderson - Carroll

SF - Maggette - Cunningham

PF - Thomas - Biyombo

C - Diaw - KBrown

I dont want Diaw at center, but I have a feeling Silas will play him there. This is my projection for what the team will look like. Not what I would do but what the 2 deep will be once season starts(if it does).

Umm, no way Diaw starts at center over Kwame.

I think we have to deal Diaw and Carroll for a backup SG/SF..

BTW- I already miss Livingston..

You can't deal Carroll without taking on an equally horrendous contract.

Diaw will fetch a late first rounder this year at the trade deadline. I know it seems crazy, but Diaw is a solid player and would really help a team out that is looking for that first forward off the bench. Coaches become enamored with his talent and think they can coach the lazy out of him.

We still won't have a ton of cap space in 12 because of Diop and Carroll. I wish we didn't have those contracts, but I would rather just let them run out than try and trade them and take on even worse contracts.

    • I look at it like get on top of the situation. Stay ahead of it. If it costs you a year of not drafting a starter at number three WR in the first so be it. We need new blood there in 2027 if not 2026, and need to get some OL on rookie deals.   At the same time the big picture is considered, we have a QB that has yet to earn an extension and you can go glass half full if you want but he had about half the good games that he needed to have. Fewer, IMO, but the point is he is not a lock to earn an extension.    Which would really put next year’s number one in play for QB and take OT off the table. So I think it needs to be on the table this year.  
    • Feels like they just changed like 2 years ago.
    • https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offensive-line-success-why-building-through-the-nfl-draft-is-the-key   Conclusions drawn This article took a deep dive into evaluating recent offensive line trends regarding the draft and free agency while incorporating team success into the equation. Here are the biggest takeaways:   The best offensive lines in football (PHI, DET, TB) were built through the draft in the early rounds Other teams (most notably LAC) are following the same approach in team building Offensive line is something a team should target in the early rounds (1-3), as the success rate significantly declines in the later rounds both in the short and long-term Offensive tackles have a higher success rate through the draft than interior offensive linemen, regardless of round Acquiring free agent offensive line does have its benefits, particularly for elite units filling one hole. Interior offensive is typically the way to go Top-end offensive line talent is far less likely to be available via trade or free agency compared to other positions year to year, only emphasizing the importance of the draft   My words: we were forced to make some big signings on interior after years of poor OL drafting and neglect. It worked but isnt sustainable. We need to get right. Drafting tackles high is a successful formula. We need to start now to have any hope going forward.
