Honestly, I wish that we had the talents that we have right now early on in the season....We have good players @ all 4 positions, but we continue to miss that 5 spot....Hey! As far as I am concern, we need patience. One year is definitely not enough to kill a man over...He has done nothing but good things as far as I am concerned...I disagree with the hiring of Lenny, and the fact that Kurt is still a Knicks...

Dido... he hasnt cleaned house.. the house is full. Now its full of other team's dirty laundry instead of Layden's.

As for Sweetney of course I praised that move. Do you think the reason he only played 15 minutes and sat out after picking up his 4th foul was because we had Rose and Taylor to go to?

I hope Isiah wakes up.. his last two moves are just scary. They are Laydenesque. I was very happy with him up until that point. Now I am worried because he's given me reason to worry. What can I say... ISiah has been average. The roster has gotten better (I think) but the team hasnt.

the reason this season blew is more TT than Lenny. Lenny coached a Tor team 3 years ago that was 30-38.. pretty close to where we are. They lost their best player in Vince for the year and finished the year 12-4 and made the playoffs.

Your the same guy that said TT should play PF or that TT was the key. Hindsight is always 20-20. Your good fan Dido.. I appreciate your enthusiasm. I'm looking at things that give us the most flexibility good or bad. Every deal has a chance to fail as well as succeed. Its checks and balances as Briggs would say. Is Mo's upside worth his downside. I say no, but thats just one guy.

Listen! I know that you care about the cap, and I do too. TT pretty much disappointed all of us, but I won't blame him, because Lenny knew that the boy was going through a lot and his head wasn't into basketball...He should have lobbied to have him on the IL until he gets his head right...But he chose not too...During that time, TT was taking valuable minutes from Penny and Ariza, and the two could have definitely helped us...I will also blame Lenny because he failed to give the Knicks a chance to have an identity.. We were a jump shooting team under his leadership, mainly because he had the wrong players in the lineup...Any good coach knows that you have to at least have a postup player in that lineup to have some sort of success, but Lenny despite the fact that he knew that Sweetn was very capable, failed to address our weaknesses...Nazr did ok in the beginning, but we were still a bad mix on the court...Lenny lacked creativity, or he was just to stubburn to change....the combo of Kurt and Nazr was Lenny's fault, there is no other way around that...It wasn't our best lineup..

I dont care about the cap at all... only the roster. The cap doesnt mean anything to me. I want roster flexibility with more reasonable contracts and a want a lower total payroll. I want those things because I think they will help us build a better team, not because I care about Dolan's wallet.

I wish Sundov would play more...I mean, I think he has a nice shooting touch. I think he could be a guy to give you 5 points a game and 5-7 bounds coming as a role player.
I thought the sloagan was All Ball, not All Lottery.
