According to one player, the team thinks the entire concept (of rationing Stoudemire's minutes) is counterproductive and another example of nonbasketball people — Dolan and Callahan — stepping on Woodson’s toes.

Lisa Callahan, MD.

That's a player giving an anti-management quote to Frank Isola. Somewhere, James Dolan wonders aloud if he can trade everyone on the Knicks just to make sure that anonymous player gets what he deserves. Anyway, this follows Martin and Stoudemire grumbling about the minutes restrictions themselves. It's tough. Amar'e in particular has been little help in his short stints. The question then is whether increased minutes (perhaps alongside better defenders...like Martin! That pairing had a nice stint at the beginning of the fourth quarter against Atlanta) would help Amar'e shake off rust and make himself useful, or just compound the problem.

The question of latitude is what makes any discussion of high-profile replacement coaches moot.

How can anyone be a "yes man" and garner respect from veterans?

Why would anyone, who has (is dealing) dealt with the stress of cancer, want the stress of James Dolan?

Mark Jackson or no one

Then again, Golden State is a joy to watch. Mark may never leave.

He is just a man. If the quote is factorial, the morale on this roster is the first thing that needs to be addressed.

For you to dumb it down by saying Woodson sucks, is an insult to writers who invest serious thought before sharing basketball opinion. Yours should be validated with your analysis, in the context of who his boss is.

The floor is yours.

Players play defense

The Knicks do not have the players to defend

Felton - lacking in lateral quicks on tender hamstring.
Shump - did somebody say second surgery?
Artest - aging with knee issues
Stoudemire - (cough)

Melo - expending more energy than most, on both ends
Bargnani - still learning
Tyson - out
Prigioni - not physical but the steals are cute

Hardaway - learning the league and the refs
Aldrich - should be worked into rotation
Smith - overplays and gambles too much

I told you all forever there is some funny business going on, behind the scenes drama and because his pockets are fat players come here to get paid 1st and think basketball 2nd.

People thought i was spitting nonsense , this article proves it.
