curious to see what people think of benching nate. i'm not against it. i hope it finally sinks in for dude that he has got to cut the nonsense and focus strictly on playing ball.

N8 is nothing but a good show. He does not care for winning, all he wants is attention and to be the clown of the class. I don't think he'll ever grow-up, some people just don't.

If he doesn't get a contract next year, he should audition for the Harlem Globetrotters.

He deservesd the benching...its unfortunate cuz the knicks can't afford to have a scorer like that on the bench when they need him to save the day like he always does....

the 3 on the opponents basket...the foul on dragic last night in pheonix...the fact he's always bitching to teamates during the game....he's just not focused on winning and leading this team. He's in his own world...he's gotta be focused on chemistry and winning......he's not there and I don't think he even understands what he is doing wrong.

I think D'Antoni is trying to establish a tight rotation and that he's beginning to think that Douglas brings more to the team in that rotation than Nate.

I think Nate loves to play and loves to ball. Seems like most nights though, and every year he's been in the NBA the team he plays on probably isnt going to win, so be that as it may what do you do? Go out and have fun right?

Nate isnt a leader. He's in his 4th year in one of the league's most dyfunctional franchises. Now hopefully thats turning around but we dont have anyone on the court who can show him how to play the right way.

I think if Nate was in a better environment he would be a winner. I think he loves playing and if you cant play to win you have to play for something and in his case its the fun and the flash

Well said. It would serve both parties well if we ended this marriage.

Couple more weeks until N8 can be traded (if he agrees). Hopefully GSW still have interest. I've been noticing this kid Morrow for a few weeks and I think MDA (and Knicks fans) would LOVE him in MDA's system. Thing is, N8 doesn't need to be showcased. Just about anoby knows what they are going to get by now. Let him ride the bench and stay healthy till we can move him for somebody who is a better fit for this TEAM...it's about time he got sent to the principals office, I support the move by

BTW - GSW picked up Morrow last year off of the garbage pile

Golden State is going to have Nate, Monta, and Curry?? Wait, my bad it is Nelson we're talking about.

I think it is clear that Walsh is going to try and moves after december. If we can package Nate and/or Lee with Jeffries, we should clear enough caproom to sign two max players. I like Nate, but MDA should go with Douglas, who is a solid scorer and a much better defender and team player.

Yeah Nate is a knucklehead and that foul was stupid, but DUHON has been stinking it up all year, not playing D, not pushing the ball and seems uninterested at times on the floor, yet he starts every game. Nate was out injured a couple of games and we still LOST. So D'foni can talk about winning this and winning that until that happens he has no merit. Look at Utah over the year not the most talented team but EXTREMELY WELL COACHED. and his gimmicky system just doesn't impress me at all.

get the heck out of here. there is difference between a good-minded point guard that i struggling but has shown the abilty to lead the team last year, and a little boy trapped in midget body that is a disruption. and you call it gimmick? what? why? system so good.

dude... Deron Williams, Brewer, Boozer, AK47, Okur and Milsap off the bench is a very very good team.
