This top five should be the best targets if you have money as GM of the Knicks,considering youth for we would get the player now so the longer he plays for us the better.I came up with my top five in order of who I would want. 1- Kobe Bryant-Simple the best and him on the floor gives any team a chance for a title.I break the youth call for him that simple. 2-Lebron James -Future Knick lock ,the best natural player.He has a beast of a body who can overpower anyone he matches with. 3-Kevin Durant-I must admit I have not seen enough of him to put him to put him third but it's my picks so let me guess and say he has the talent and youth I want and the heart of a lion in a skinny body. 4-Dwyane Wade-Great shooter and can get to the hoop alot . Great passer and great defensive player. 5-Brandon Roy - Like Durant I will go out on a limb and pick Brandon Roy on my small sample,great body ,very strong player. Now I was starting to figure out who I would want sixth and let me tell you my friends who I though about,and I'm going to hear coolaid hype talk but the player I though about is the guy our coach has branded the best shooter he ever saw,Gallo when all is said and done could be number six,just a though my fiends which is quite real.

Rene...
I would switch LeBron with Kobe for number one, and add Chris Paul, who will be a FA at the end of next season. Otherwise, we are in tune, once more, with our top players at the present time.
For fattest slothful players of all-time...I must begin with Eddy Curry, who reportedly is svelte, but out of shape, due to pulling a hamstring or according to other unnamed sources, running away from Donnie Walsh as he was munching on a Big Mac. I suppose we have to put Big Snacks Jerome James in this list, in addition to Clarence Weatherspoon...I cannot think of any wider loads now, but I am sure I'll come up with some more notables...

Hey Ken you cant forget Oliver miller and the comeback attempt "versions" of Charles Barkley and Shawn Kemp. Those three looked like "burgers" in their respective iterations mentioned above.
Bryant "Big Country" Reeves was also another quarter pounder with cheese making millions wasting people's time and money.

Hey Ken you cant forget Oliver miller and the comeback attempt "versions" of Charles Barkley and Shawn Kemp. Those three looked like "burgers" in their respective iterations mentioned above. Bryant "Big Country" Reeves was also another quarter pounder with cheese making millions wasting people's time and money. Good ones. They used to call Kemp the "Good-Year Kemp" as in blimp. Oliver Miller and Anthony "Pig" Miller were certainly not well-conditioned players, and I still find Sir Upchuck to have been incredible in that he actually was always overweight for a 6'4 1/2 forward. I cannot believe I left off Sweetney, who must hold the record for eating himself out of the NBA in the fastest time. The guy was finished at 24 years of age. Even Big Contract Reeves had his moments despite the girdle he had to wear. Nevertheless, I read somewhere that so many new contracts have very distinctive weight clauses in them. Even thinner guys like Garnett are watching their weight. But talking about Eddy Curry and KG is like talking about Lard Ass Clarence Weatherspoon and Elgin Baylor. Who is that college player who weighs close to 400 pounds? I think he was even drafted by an NBA team? He was actually an effective player in the final 8 NCAA tourney. He has two last names, and it's killing me that I cannot remember his name... My man, Lonnie Shelton, was another ex-Knick who became so bloated that I think he broke the bench in Cleveland when he and Mel Turpin both sat down at the same time.

Hey Rene...
Was that picture of Eddy taken within the last 3 days? If so, he does look like he lost the weight that was reported. Curry even look a bit more "cut", although he is no David Robinson in terms of a sculpted body...He may actually now fit into the Knicks chartered jets?

My top 5 would be LeBron, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, Brandon Roy and Deron Williams. As for the fattest NBA players Oliver Miller looked like he ate Mike Sweeney but Hod Rod Williams wasn't far behind the buffet line. Eddy Curry is actually a lightweight heavyweight. ; )
