Now all he needs to do is make sure the offense is good enough so we don't need any defense, haha.<BR/><BR/>Can someone say 110+ per game?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-31770521064222695652008-09-27T14:13:00.000-04:002008-09-27T14:13:00.000-04:00Off the top of my head, Wade is rated something li...Off the top of my head, Wade is rated something like 97 or 96 overall I believe, probably whatever he was rated in 2k8.<BR/><BR/>I'm not a big believer in knocking players because they played through an injury. When a player gets hurt in association, thier ratings go down depending on the injury severity. (Now if we could control a player's injury status, that would be perfect!)Rashidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415749685735306421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-92198532367321998032008-09-27T03:40:00.000-04:002008-09-27T03:40:00.000-04:00Rashidi, I wanna see what they rated dwyane wade s...Rashidi, I wanna see what they rated dwyane wade since he came back from a serious injuryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-31343254293010144742008-09-26T16:41:00.000-04:002008-09-26T16:41:00.000-04:00Layden wasn't that bad, he at least ran the organi...Layden wasn't that bad, he at least ran the organization somewhat professionally.<BR/><BR/>He gets a lot of flack for drafting Frederic Weis but that wasn't even him. The Knicks had an interim GM at the time.<BR/><BR/>The Knicks were basically doomed the moment they traded Ewing's deal for scrubs, Glen Rice, and Luc Longley who retired after a year.<BR/><BR/>They gave Rice an extension before he even played a game and then he developed foot problems that destroyed his career (he played 100 games in 3 years after leaving NY). They ended up having to dump Rice for two terrible contracts other GMs made in Shandon Anderson and Howard Eisley.<BR/><BR/>These guys actually played pretty well for the Knicks but obviously weren't the big impact names they were looking for as fans pushed for the team to compete. I still think it's funny how a team starting Howard Eisley won more games than any of these Marbury teams since.Rashidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415749685735306421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919554729805931143.post-67399778155143055062008-09-26T16:21:00.000-04:002008-09-26T16:21:00.000-04:00well they were pretty bad under scott layden too, ...well they were pretty bad under scott layden too, he's gotta be thrilled that isaiah stunk it up bad enough to make his crappy job an afterthoughUncle Discohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09144751848456663256noreply@blogger.com
