Age: 24

Experience: Fourth year

P.E.R.: 18.18

The lone exception among the group is Robinson, who has career highs in scoring (16.6), rebounding (4.3) and assists (4.0). He is shooting better, has increased his averages per 40 minutes and has a career high in true shooting percentage. He could finish with a career high in P.E.R. for the third consecutive season.

Nate's PER is better than Lee, Harrington, Duhon... all of em....

he's probably asked to do more than he should. he's not ready for the responsibility.

but again, something changed after he got hurt and duhon called him out.

I totally agree with this statement. He's a 5'9 7th man off the bench, but on this team he's asked to make clutch baskets by himself. Put Nate on a legit contender and see how much better he looks next to star players. Its almost not fair to jugge him with this roster. Does he make bone head plays? Yes! But what bench player doesn't. Thats why on a good team, when Nate makes a mistake he can go back to the bench. But this team is so depleted and talent deprived, we have to play through his mistakes because he's one of our best players.

If Nate is your best shooter and 2nd best scorer theres something wrong with the team, not Nate.

And the Marbury distraction. Don't forget about that.

I saw nate up close during the game at Charlotte and he really sucks. We just thought larry was getting in his head, but the bone head moves and lack of intensity is really unfathomable. He just does not seem to be in the game mentally.

He is special. Trade him or let him walk.

Globetrotters should hire this kid. He is a talant.

Nate is talented as hell, but his height will always haunt the Knicks. How often do you see Nate take shots that are good shots but because of his height they seem like the most complicated shot attempts.

if nate went to the aztec basketball league, he would be their starting center.

I Told You So

Nate is a mental midget. He's a clown and he needs to go. I will be very pissed if they re-sign him. Get him on a team that only cares about scoring points and being entertaining. A ballhogging chucker has no place on a team that has aspirations of winning.

I agree there is no way the KNicks should resign Nate and Lee. That cap space is much more valuable than these two players.

I think Nate is possibly the worst player in the clutch in the history of basketball. Not only does he miss shots, he literally destroys late game rallies.

That being said, to me it's a roster issue more than a Nate issue. You'd expect that when this team is ready to compete they would not be asking nate to run the offense and/or be a go to guy down the stretch. I think Mike is shoving him in these situations to see if he will learn, but it's amazing that he keeps making the same mistakes over and over.
I just hope that people will like me

Hey, the rotation's only 7 deep [maybe]. Nate has unestimable value as a bench towel waver. Remember what's his name on the 80's celtics? Nate get's more airtime as highlight reel post-support than anything he does on the court. I mean, how many times can you watch a one-handed dunk put-back? But his antics after almost any Knick dunk are priceless...

agree 100%... i told u guys a month & a half ago that relying on Nate to be our go to guy in the clutch would lead to big problems because of his lack of height & i was told he was very capable of handling the role... we need a SG who can get off his shots in traffic w/some size... Nate is a novelty, a guy u bring off the bench to inject some energy & hustle... he's not a #1 scoring option on any team.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

Oh, totally agree. Nate is a career bench player.

Well I guess that means we'll be resigning him to a multi yr contract.

You could do something like Nate and Roberson to Boston for JR Giddens Billy Walker and a 2009 number 1 pick. Nate can give that team the firepower off the bench they need
