Briggs finally says something I agree with. Im not in favor of trading Sweetney because he is our best low post scorer and our best offensive rebounder. Let him play 30 mins a game hes going ot put up great #s. Justs need to get in shape.

I don't want to trade Sweetney either because I believe he can be a dominating post player but what really bothers me is that he was unable to even compete in SL due to "weight issues" That's a five alarm fire. I mean how much more weight did this guy put on since late April? The Knicks from all accounts seem really concern about his weight issue. I seen this guy eat in person, and he really cleans plates. This is a summer where you would expect him to hire a trainer to get ready to play for his contract year. Yet he isn't even ready for SL action! And second I am not real concern about Frye's post game because I think he will be a player who will get stronger as he age, and will go to the free throw line alot. Besides Mo Taylor's post game is similar to Sweetney, the problem with Mo is that he makes alot more money than Sweets.

Oliver Miller would put up Shaq like numbers too. Justs need to get in shape.

Dude, you were the guy going crazy on antoine wright, antoine wright BPA antoine wright BPA, i agree with you that we shouldnt have taken Frye but you seem to bounce back and forth to players like the flavor of the day. Antoine Wright was a mid 30% shooter and had 1 breakout year. He tested very poorly in the combine and didnt exactly look like the BPA at 8. Id rather have Frye than Wright that is for sure.

You cant say i wanted 9 guys for goodnes sakes! We have frye and we may need to keep Sweetney for now and see how it works out because Frye is on the perimeter to much. That leaves us with only Taylor and Sweetney in the box. If one guy goes down, OUCH.

One thing that I think they should do with frye is what JC did with CV-stay within 5 feet from the basket and dont shoot a three unless you are wide open and spotted up. Frye has good touch, so he needs to stay near the basket to use that jump hook and draw fouls. I didnt catch the first half, but all I saw was one post up that didnt look to swell adn a blocked 3, and a few times where for some reason he had the ball beyond the 3 pt line

forget this rasheed wallace BS compariosn, just stay close to the basket and use your touch. We dont need a 6-11 guy shooting 3s.
