we know that every summer we have a list on a certain topic. lets start with our current top three knick players.

3.) stephon marbury- though a LOT of people do not like him, i thought this year was one of his best in a knicks uni ( definately not statistically though). he showed improving leadership qualities and his defense has improved. though i still wonder if he is a loser since he directed the team to another losing season.

2.) jamal crawford- i think he is the most exciting and even though his point avg. is the same, i thouhgt he has improved in his game. when he first came to the knicks he just gunned from outside. but now he will drive and score in the paint or initiate contact. plus there is no other person on the team that i would rather give the ball to with the game on the line than him.

1.) eddy curry- i was rooting for him during the larry brown era. i thought that he had talent but needed motivation. thomas certainly motivated him by labeling him the "go to" player and with his first year with that tag i thought he did a good job. his post moves are incredible for a person his size and even when he is triple teamed i have seen him score. he is no longer just a dunker. other parts of his game needs to improve obviously but i for one do like the progress he is exhibiting.

honorable mention: david lee- love his tenacity but he was injured most of the season

q-rich- see lee
