Frye is not as bad a defender that you are making him out to be....And yeah I did read you post, I don't agree with it at all...Fact is the rest of the NBA would love to get their hands on a guy like Frye...Frye should and will start this season simply because he is our best power forward at this point in time....Your point you made in other post where you omitted Fyre out of the lineup because Francis and JRose were also starting does not make sense...JRose and Francis will be move as quickly as possible...Curry and Frye are the future of this organization, like it or not...They need to learn to play together...The key to success this season is Frye, Carry and Marbs and how the team responds defensively....Nothing rose colored about that...It's shorted sighted on your part not recognizing Frye's game as potentially being one of the better pF in the league down the road...
I can agree with half of your post. I can agree with the fact that Curry and Frye need to learn how to play together but that DOES NOT omit the fact that is best for the team. You are often a person who talks about putting your best lineup on the floor and having them going out there and play. I feel the Knicks best starting lineup should include David Lee becuase he brings things to the team that our other big men don't, which is rebounding. You have to rebound the basketball if your going to win basketball games.
You can't backup your points with things like "the rest of the NBA would love to get their hands on Frye" that doesn't strengthen your argument becuase your still not telling me what he does better than Lee other than shooting the ball. You keep saying Frye is not as bad of a defender as I make him out to be but your not backing it up. I've seen the guy in college and in the NBA hell even the SUMMER LEAGE twice and he's always getting pushed around, he HAS To fix that.
Also, what makes you think that Francis and JRose are going to be dealt?
Francis and JRose were also starting does not make sense...JRose and Francis will be move as quickly as possible...
Like it or not they are both on this team right now and your God Isiah has said many times he isn't interested in making ANY trades and he likes the team as it is, so I can't agree with that part of your post. You keep dealing with what MIGHT happen, while I'm dealing with the here and now and the to me, the here and now says that I'd rather have Lee in the starting lineup becuase he rebounds the ball, he hustles and no one else in the starting lineup does either of those things. To me it would be counter-productive to have Frye starting when guys like Marbury, Francis and Curry are going to be taking as many shots as they are. Frye plays extremely well with Jamal Crawford and Craw is not going to be starting so you might as well put Frye in the same lineup as Craw becuase they work so well together and the 2nd unit can use Fryes shooting ability.
Will you agree? I doubt it, will you read over things? probably. That's the way I feel and that's what I'd like to see Isiah do. Will he do it, I don't know but I think he should.
