I think that Crawfords days are numbered.

What makes you think that? Craw can play the 2 Q at the 3 Steph at the 1...although that is a little small. Craw could also be coming off the bench with Ariza. Plenty of room for him.

I guess. So what is the depth order right now

C-Frye, Butler
PF-Sweetney, MoT, JYD
SF-TT, Ariza
SG-Q, Crawford
PG-Marbury, Nate

I think Q gets a lot of PT at the 3.

Stephen A was raving about Nate & his ability to disrupt the other team's offense...i take it he's a good defender on the perimeter & a good ballhawk...we needed a guy like that...i wanted someone like Mike James, & Nate is basically that w/the ability to dunk at 5'7"...he'll be an instant crowd favorite imo.
TMS... Nate = TOUGH. He's 1000 times more explosive than Boykins. He's a strong pitbull and Brigg's "mini-Wade" comment is right on. He will be a NY favorite for YEARS,

I'm pumped... if this is our guy and we land Blatch or Taft I'm going on a kool-aid run. TONIGHT

I like Gomes, but I definitely like some of the big men available right now a lot more.

Either Crawford's days are numbered or the Knicks are planning to use him solely at SG (with Marbury and Nate at PG and Q and Ariza at SF). He added 8 pounds of muscle *during* last season. If he can add another 8 over the offseason, physically there should be no reason why he can't play SG. Now all he needs is a coach who will give him some tough love (take him out when he slacks on defense or puts up consecutive bad shots). With Q, you have the luxury of taking Crawford out of the game to discipline him.

I like the lineup thus far of

Marbury/Nate Robinson
Crawford/Q
Q/Ariza
Sweetney et al.
Frye/Butler

That's EIGHT young talented players, 7 if you don't consider Marbury young.

Crawford for Al Harrington might work...they make similar dollars & Isiah helped to develop Al Harrington in Indiana...that would balance out our roster better than it looks right now imo.

Does Al Harrington have chronic knee problems? I thought I remembered someone saying that.

BRIGGS said that...i believe his exact words were that we didn't need any retreads like Harrington on this team...Harrington's all of 25 years of age & has missed all of 19 games the past 3 years...i don't see that as that big of a health concern.

The insurance issues were never settled, which is why the Knicks got the 21st pick.
