I would think it would justify his eye for talent but not starting lee or playing balkman is very questionable.....

And unfortunately his only trade that looked like a winner could be a huge disaster its very disheartening to see q struggle with his back, which is one of the worst injuries a ball player can have, if he goes down we are in serious trouble.......

Everything isiah does is quetionable, his only slam dunk to date has been lee, every other move has bee suspect.....

And if your going to make a guy the focal point of your offense you think he would show you the courtesy of being in shape and trying to play defense

dont get your hopes upo because the minute jamal can play, isiah is going to use him asap. its sort of pathetic that you wish bad on one of our players. oh and curry's pts are way down since jamal's loss. you happy abouut that? only ignorant people like yourself say crap like that.

no one wishes bad on JC, its just we are such a better team without him. Better %shots, more rebounds, better defense. Its unquestionable and obvious in the numbers.

MS - head coaches don't make "popular" decisions

They make decisions based on what they feel is best for the team

Individual agendas not welcome

Explain how starting James for 3 minutes and then not playing again is what is best for the team.

That's an individual agenda if I ever heard of one.

takes pressure and early fouls away from Curry, he defended the tougher bigman. simple.

All within 3 minutes. Right. what was the change in Curry's 1st quarter fouls? I bet the difference was negligible.

The "tougher" big man? Let's overexaggerate a little more. The center position is by far the weakest in the game. Couldn't Frye have defended that player the first 3 minutes if it were really that big of a problem?

curry never had a tendancy to pick up early fouls this season. and also I dont understand why curry would need someone else to guard the "tougher" big men for the first couple of minutes. but never again for the rest of the game. not even to start the second half. actually I dont even remember james defending tougher big men when he started.

anyway the thing that bothers me about frye starting is, how can isiah have made his mind up about that so fast, and so easily? it seems like lee never really had a chance to start. Frye starting the season starting despite his bad play, and frye will go back to starting despite the fact that he hasnt even been playing lately or anything. I hope it works out well, and doesn't become a farce like it was when James was starting. but honestly Im starting to buy into the six man of the year explanation for lee not starting. there doesn't seem to be any logical basketball related reason for lee not starting.

you would rather curry or frye get 2 fouls and be out in the 1st quarter, or have James get those fouls to preserve Frye and Curry?

I'm still trying to figure out what imaginary fouls you're talking about.

or balkman! i think balkman would have been great in the role we put jerome james in- get him some consistent minutes where he'll play defense and block shots. he wouldn't crowd curry out on offense but would be more active cutting, passing, moving without the ball. it would have been perfect.

fact of the matter is isiah is ****ing up royally with his lineups, eddy doesn't defend enough to pick up fouls, he might pick up two defensive fouls the entire game, the only time he commits fouls is on the offensive, and this notion that we need lee off the bench for his energy is ****ing absurd, we get blown out at the start of every game and have to come back, why can't we use lee and balkman when the energy is needed?

MS - if Isiah is messing up so royally, why has the Knicks record improved steadily with each month?

The Knicks are undefeated in March and you are kvetching endlessly over a lineup that you would use if you were a head coach... simultaneously calling the actual haed coach an idiot for not thinking like you think?

Hold up.

2 wins against 2 horrible teams and you want to make a big deal about being "undefeated" in March???

Hold up indeed.

Hey, I choose to celebrate, at the drop of a hat no less, over a two game winning streak.

So sue me.

Think of the fun it will be to win the division with only 40 wins.

When Lee is in the game they never double with his man becuase he will get the offensive rebound. If anything it helps because they put Lee on the other block and the man practically blocks him out. Lee also is the best high low passer on the team

King 1 - Lee should sit out Seattle and take advantage of the three extra days of rest before the Wizards on Saturday. If Balkman can bring another strong effort, splitting time with Jeffries, perhaps the Knicks can take advantage of the home momentum and sneak a W tomorrow night.

And I love David Lee.

Misterearl I agree with you if he isnt 100%. I think they can win with home every game without Lee. He practiced today with a lot of pain and tomorrow he will see how it goes.

I agree. Get him healthy, even if we have to get by without him on Tues. We need him 100% for the rest of the season.
