Sorry I know there are many fans who love him but I bet if he wasn't 5'9" I know he wouldn't be liked as much. Has anyone ever seen a player in an offense geared toward his strengths regress so rapidly? He can't run a basketball team for 5min without going skitzo. You can count on him when the game is tight to play like a wound up toy spun out of control. He has no composure for any length of time, he's the quintessential rally/comeback killer, shot selection very Jamalesque, he doesn't make his teammates better, and his numbers are going in the wrong direction. If there's one guy we shouldn't think about resigning it's definitely him. He needs to be traded before his value drops. He's doesn't exist to me.

I agree but if you're going to insult him then you might as well insult the rest of this team for its poor basketball IQ. This must be the worst team ever assembled in terms of basketball IQ. The amount of dumb decisions each guy makes out there per game is unmatched by any other team. It really is amazing. Isiah did a great job building this team.

hear, hear. nate is atrocious. i can't even root for him anymore. he's too arrogant. he takes shots where he is clearly covered, expecting to draw a foul... i think? he's horrible. trade him while he has any value.

I don't think we should over react- just like beating the celts meant nothing.

But, yea, what is up with all the missed lay ups

But no one appears to be more adored than he. He's stupid, I mean really stupid. It's like watching a poor mans Steve Francis before he left Houston. Look he can come back the next game and score 45pts, so what I don't give a Flying Fuch, that will only fuel my desire to want him gone even more. I honestly feel if we got rid of him we might improve modestly for the duration of the season. Next in line to go, needs to be AL WON'T SHARRINGTON

stop it please stop it....

the Knicks started Q and duhon in the backcourt....with a wilson, david lee, jared jefferies front court....

thats what you are witnessing....don't put it on Nate, cuz he's not the starter....he's the guy better suited for 20 minutes off the bench remember?

Face it the Knicks aren't good...I'm just as mad as the rest of you but this team is not good so don't expect them to destroy the league. How does that sactown trade look now? Brad Miller and Salmons woulda meant the difference in the game.

btw....Al Harrington drops 20 again...dude needs to play more and he needs his number called more until Donnie can make a trade.

He's bad Spree I know you like him but come on. You're talking about stuff that doesn't even address why I want him gone. Yes the team is awful we know this but we have had plenty of chances to win even with the Helter Skelter play. The player who wants to go Helter Skelter 24/7 the most is Nate and almost single handedly kills our chances in comebacks.

I haven't seen so many missed lay ups in my life. They should be practicing nothing but lay ups from now on until they are lay up professionals. Even when I would listen to the game, I'm like 'up the hell is up with all of these missed lay ups'?

I had a theory last year that if only Nate's little arms were a few inches longer, maybe he'd be able to get to the basket a little quicker, resulting in a few extra baskets a game. That he'd be able to lay the ball in a little easier, but I was laughed out of the lower east side. And now I probably look like I knew a little something about what I was talking about. And I got stomped on about any attacks on the little guy, after he scored that 45 last year. I don't know who to defend anymore or what to think.

Russell Westbrook is like Nate if Nate was 6'3" and played with smarts and heart instead of just heart.

Nate's a much better perimeter shooter than Westbrook

Westbrook is a better rebounder, doesn't disrupt team flow and can actually run offense.

i agree... he's also a better defender.


so in other words, they're nothing alike.

I woke up and looked at the box, and decided to post about how much Nate sucks. But you beat me to it, and that's ok.

He's just a streetball player that is beloved becaues he's tiny. He has sucked since he took 203958203985209835203958 attempts to dunk in the contest a few years ago. Minds like that aren't healthy. And shooting as much as he does isn't healthy for anyone.

He NEEDS to go. NEEDS to go if this is ever going to be a winning team.

Nate is a mental midget. He is just not a smart player. And he is a clown. Unfotunatelly his lack of intelligence supercede his athletic gifts.
