Alan Hahn of Newsday gets it right. Walsh needs to make up for lost opportunities by making an overwhelming offer to Kahn for the rights to Ricky Rubio.
The expense of the transaction is inconsequential. The Knicks have nothing worth protected and if the deal is one-sided toward Minny, that's fine.
We need at least one player who can offer real hope, display immediate talent, and who can justify watching the Knicks another minute.
Short of Lebron James or Dwayne Wade, Rubio is the one that got away and that is a reversible event. Sure there are details but the need is immediate and urgent and will foil none of the Alice in Wonderland, 2010 fantasies.
In a league where Jordan can be teflon-coated from fouls, where referees can game the game, where Gasol can be traded from Memphis to LA, Rubio can become a Knick.
Whatever it takes for that to happen needs to happen. Enough is enough when it comes to the league's abuse of the Knicks. They have dumped injured players with huge on us, they have financed their fortunes on our luxury tax - it's about time for the league to get off this team's throat.

Necessities
Ye Newe Glory-torium
Here, dear readers, is the final resting place of all weary Knicks fans. Yes, here is where one comes when the Triangle refuses to have three sides, when biting one's lip from losing to win later is one loss too far,or when said fan simply hits 'rock' bottom. In short, "the ship be" eternally "sinking" here. Welcome aboard, rearrange the deck chairs as you please.
