"In 83 minutes this series, Mike Bibby has coughed up the ball only four times, by far the lowest rate of any Knicks guard.

Granted, many of those minutes have come at the two guard position, where Bibby’s role has been less distributor and more spot-up shooter. Still, the Knicks’ top three lineups this series in terms of overall +/- have included Bibby, with the unit of Bibby, J.R. Smith, Carmelo Anthony, Jared Jeffries and Tyson Chandler (+9) being the most productive (statistics are from NBA.com).

We gotta run with the men who have proven they can handle pressure.

Douglas can drive and finish OK. Don't overlook his defense. I'm not saying he is the savior but he can be an important piece and if Quauntum Physics and String theory are at all right, the hate around here isn't helping him nor the team. Bring some good vibes. He has my support tonight and if he doesn't play well, well, play him or JR, whoever plays better.

These Toney Douglas posts remind me of those people who wanted Kurt Thomas gone, that doing that alone would be addition by subtraction.

We understand Toney hasn't looked good this year. But in the past he was a positive contributor. Sure, he may not fit the role we have him trying to play.

Woodson should just tell Toney, relax- have fun. Don't worry about trying to hit a five pointer by yourself. Be yourself, play d, hit the open shot and man, and get in the lane if you can.
