If this guy is supposed to be so good (rated the 5th best center in the NBA by some site), why has he yet to play a minute this season? Wasnt this project ready to take off this season?

They lost Rasho and Nazr too but there's still no room for him?

I noticed that Ariza hasn't played a tick yet either. Are these guys hurt, or buried?

If Hill can play, Reezy is out of luck. Time to sit back and learn from the best.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

Butler was a project.

They have Umberto, Ellison and Horry for their frontcourt, jackie is raw and doesn't play d, which is what they are teaching him now. He is a future prospect with a high reward at little cost, which is why the knicks should have kept him around.

it's weird how our former up and coming all-stars Ariza, Sweetney, Butler can't get minutes on real teams. I think there was a Frank Williams sighting in Greece the other day, not necessarily on a basketball court. Makes you wonder where Frye, Lee and Nate will be in a few years.

I made the comparison loooooooong before the Knicks ever drafted him and I'll say it again.... anyone remember Loren Woods? If you wanna know where Frye will be in a few years, look and see where Woods is now.

Frye is overcoming surgery. He is not Loren Woods. Woods has major character flaws and had conflicts with his team, and did not have the talent to be a lottery pick. Frye is not back yet from surgery. Maybe he shouldn't be starting but he is no Loren Woods. That is like an nbadraft.net comparison because they look similar.

Popovich said of Jackie Butler, the 6-10 former Knick. "I'm more concerned with getting him in shape and showing him what it takes to compete at the highest level."

Butler was with Brown for a year. Why was he not in shape and why didnt he learn last year what it takes to compete? To me this is a dig /or should be a dig at Brown.

From NY Post:

Thomas said he had no regrets not matching center Jackie Butler's offer sheet, even with Jerome James' injury. How can you blame him? Butler has been inactive to date. Popovich said Butler reported with a whopping 281/2 percent body fat. It's down to 191/2 percent, Popovich said. "His time is ahead of him," Popovich said. "He's only 20 years old. Our main concern ... is we're trying to get him in shape."

28% bf? That's absurd for a pro athlete. It's awful just for an ordinary adult male.

WTF? It's a dig at Butler for not staying in shape.
