The Sorry Future Of The New York Knicks
New Yorkers were praying. They said their prayers for Lebron James to announce his move to NY to play for the Knicks, but unfortunately that didn’t happen. As he made the announcement to head to Miami, the dreams of Knicks fans were ruined.
The future for the Knicks is in the hands of players like Danilo Gallinari and Amare Stoudemire. However, it’s unlikely that Amare can stay healthy as he gets older. So the Knicks organization just may have to deal with another Marbury situation, as Amare eats up the salary cap.
As a Knicks fan, it’s been rough over the past several years. Expect it to remain this way for another 5 years. The good news is that if you don’t get to catch the Knicks very often, you’ll be able to get tickets extremely cheap until they can make some sort of noise.
So what do Knicks fans have to look forward? Well, besides for Amare eating up the cap space there are a few other things. We can look forward to the Heat coming to town and watching pure humiliation. I’d expect the Heat to beat the Knicks by about 40 points!
There’s also Nate Robinson returning to town. He’ll be back for his 2nd homecoming game and will light up the Garden. I’m sure Marbury will also have some wise words to share, which are always exciting. He should abuse the Knicks for putting the future of the team in this situation!
Bottom line, it’s going to be a very bumpy road for the Knicks in the near future. Many experts think this can be worse than the Travis Knight days. Charles Barkley once said that the Knicks organization will be cursed after they traded away Patrick Ewing. Everyone wanted Ewing to retire as a Knick, but they decided to toss him for Luc Longley and Glen Rice. That was a bust of a trade!
For anyone who works for the Knicks, they must know what their future’s going to bring. They’re probably trying to make some changes, but there’s not much they can do at this point. They missed the boat, unless they want to put together some sign and trade deals. Players like Tracy McGrady, Eddie House and Al Harrington are available, but in my opinion (as well as many experts) these guys are just getting older and slowing down. That’s not what the Knicks need now!
With that said, it’s not going to get better for quite some time. Their draft picks over the next few years are terrible as well considering they may lose their pick next year if Houston chooses to take it. Then in 2012 they don’t even have a first round pick. It’s bad and will remain this way!
