why don't we just only play the guys who actually act like they care from now on - it's not about playing whoever's got the biggest contract since we happen to have a bunch of multimillionaires set for life lying around anyways....
marbury (you hafta) - brewer - ariza - sweets - whoever shows the most desire at center
as soon as we play ourselves out of a game, that should be the immediate lineup.

The biggest problem with what you just said is the Marbury part. I'm not saying your wrong, because you're right they'll never bench him. But he's the guy putting forth the least effort. I'm really down on Marbs right now. His body language and leadership and effort and overall play, not to mention the three turnovers to the Clippers last night, hasn't just been not up to par, it's been disgusting. KT hates him, fine, trade KT, whatever, but how many Vets are we going to go through? How many times before its Marbury's fault? gah, what an awful end of the season this is going to be...

guys, you dont have to be all upset...listen....rooting for the knicks to lose is the best thing to do! i have been rooting for the knicks to have a good game...like fun dunks by trevor, and nice plays, but im also rooting for them to lose...i think the knicks can strike big in the lottery...and isiah knows it...hes overseas seeing bogut play i bet...the knicks are going to get a franchise player to go along with marbury...we need to look at it as TANK THE SEASON....nyk3....dont get upset....root for them to lose! its like they "win" haha....it feels good, it really does.

it's a weak draft, at least for superstars and Bogut doesn't play overseas, he plays in Utah. I'm with you on rooting for a pick, but it's painful to watch Marbury go through the motions and think that this guy is supposed to be our leader. You would never ever ever in a million years see Kidd play like this unless one of his legs fell off, and even then he would cheer his teammates on. I don't have a problem with Marbs' stats, it's his body language and his lack of movement on the floor. Pathetic. They can lose, but to call this fun .... man, I don't know, even the Hornets TRY.

LongIslandKnicksFan - I understand what your saying 100% but we all know whats gonna happen. We're gonna be bad but not bad enough to get the top pick, our season has gotten ugly and it will continue and we'll probly end up with not even a top 5 pick.We're stuck in the middle, not good enough to make the playoffs but not bad enough to get the top pick NOW THAT UPSETS ME

every draft produces at least one great player. The Kenyon Martin draft was the only weak one and I would take Kenyon in a second right now. Bogut and Maurice williams are unbelievable and taft is really good too.

mythfaze, Herb is going to finish out the season....We are going to LOSE MANY MANY MANY more games. We might as well look at the positive part of losing...THE NBA DRAFT...NYC! The Knicks will have a great rookie on their hands this summer in the NBA Draft....

Nalod! you are bad luck, I hope that you realize that...

Its a cute remark when you put a on it,

but somehow I really believe you think this way.

Read my opening thread again, it may just pertain to you.

Yeah, Nalod did not play defense tonite, Nalod did not rebound, Nalod not hitting his shots. yeah, its Nalod. Thats some funny shoyt.

So Bogut is the new Knick center savior. We will definitely have a great chance of landing him because, unlike in other seasons where we have really been mediocre, this time it looks like we are too bad to not finish with a very high draft pick. I hope there are really good players our there because we will need one for next season.

Well, now it may be right to call this season over, because the Knicks body language seems to be on anything other than basketball. What's frustrating is that, like many of you have said, Marbury is maybe the most responsable. Frustrating that your "franchise player" is making no effort to play. Wonder if Williams ever dares to bench him- would be "fun", right Steph?
