LB loves specialists and if Q and/or TT aren't hitting from the outside, he won't hesitate to go to zone and put H20 out there just to stand and hit bombs (like Q was used on the suns last year)
all kool aid all the time.

Allan Houston is never playing again. Repeat: Allan Houston is never playing again.


Also: I would WANT to start Ariza, but I'm sure Tim will start until mid-season when he'll be traded or benched until his contract goes away.

yep, I'd love to start Ariza as well...I guess I'm coming leate to this party, but Ariza needs to get a little LB tutoring before he's ready, but he was the youngest player in the SL, so he's got tons of time...I give it 2 months before he's starting at the 3 and TT is playin extensive minutes at the 4...possibly starting against the smaller teams in the league.

Correction:
Well, maybe not starting in 2 months...too much kool aid, well, actually vitamin water (it's a new era)
But seeing prince like minutes in his first year. But with Q able to go to the 3 and craw and n8 needing minutes, Reezy may get squeezed again...with his age, I'm willing to wait until next year.

And I love saying this...he's got asthma. not sure why i'm so proud of him for this.

Im not sure about allan, but I agree about Reezy! LB will make him a star!

The problem with starting James and Sweetney is that you are starting two bench players.

I would love to see the Knicks develop Ariza, start him, the hell with TT sulking or anyone else. I think that is the way Brown is anyway, he doesn't give a rat's ass if the player's who don't produce are unhappy with playing time.

Hate to be the party pooper around here, but if Frye starts this year,
I'll eat my hat. When is the last time the Knicks actually put a rookie
in as there starter (barring injury to the actual starter)?
Rose will start at PF.

Here's how i see the starting lineup:

Marbs
Q
Big Game
Sweets
TT

i think he'll want to be able to bring Craw in for either marbs or Q. Frye can come in for Game or Sweets. Reezy for TT or else Q slides down. Nate, Rose and Mo for different spot duty. I hope jackie proves worthy of some burn.

Why? Sweetney started ahead of Rose last year. If Sweetney comes into camp in shape, Larry will recognize that he can offer much more than Rose.

Jackie! I hope he makes the team!


Bonn:

I don't know where Rose really fits in? Sweets should start, Then Mo. T. I also find it hard that Super Frye gets run at center when he is projected to be a PF.

To SUHR with love said yesterday they see TT playing PF some also.

I can see where David Lee can get minutes there. They seem to be very high on him. And then there is Reezy, whom I hope emerging also!

Rose is a hell of a player, but with the roster as it is, I just don't see him getting minutes unless we are cutting into Reezy-Lee minutes.

Rose gets paid a boatload ot just sit.

More questions than answers.

could it be, MoT has been moved up the depth chart?

I guess it wasn't the worst deal ever.

Can you all please wait until Brown announces his starting lineup to cry about who should or should not start.....Not even Zeke knows what the starting lineup will be
The true Knickabocker..........

There is absolutely no sense in posting on a knicks board if you're not going to spend the majority of your time crying about who should or should not start months before the season begins.

You of all people should apppreciate that Dido

I don't agree. In my opinion JJ and Sweetney are a good mix. One is just a defender and the other one is good at the boards and playing in the post. When either Mike or Jerome gets in foul trouble, then put Frye on the court.
