TrueBlue - how many teams are dealing with the loss of THREE players, at the same time, who all receive significant minutes?

The injury thing is not intended as an excuse, but to measure missing one player against three at the same time is not the same.

Especially on a young team with as a fragile balance as the Knicks.

So now we won't brag about our depth now, because we lose a few games ?

playa - I don't remember anyone bragging about the Knicks depth.

Don't get me wrong, depth is good... but can you really understate the adjustments to shifting roles and responsibilities as the new shift lines change on the fly and the huge hole on the stat sheet must still be filled?

Are you suggesting the insertion of rookies Collins, Balkman and even the Jiffy Pop college transfer student Randolph Morris should have been a seamless transition?

In my not-so-humble opinion, basketball is a game of delicate balance. That deleicate balance is one reason a squad with depth and talent like the Atlanta Hawks, struggles mightily to cohere as a team from night to night.

The rotations are jacked up and the on-court leadership is unsettled

They have no rhythm.
