This guy has been putting up great point guard numbers while his play has been a controlled fury. The question isn't "is he good enough", cuz he is....... The Question is, do you want Nate Robinson as your starting point guard?
yes, focus on filling another spot
no, he doesn't take me to that happy place
I'd rather lose more games and pray to God the Knicks can get Derrick Rose no matter how much of a long shot that is

i agree w/u nixluva... how many times do we see threads where guys like Linas Kleiza & Marcus Williams get props for putting up decent statlines & then the same guys tell us our own guys are nothing special.

Who the hell ever praised Marcus Williams? And Kleiza deserved the praise. He was playing pretty damn well there for a long stretch. He did go out there and prove it. He has the talent. But he's also a role player. Nobody is calling him amazing.

As for the other guy, 90's Knicks are not overrated. That team personified NY even if they never won a title. They were rugged and took no **** from anyone. Those are legendary times.

Legendary times? Are you kidding me. Damn did you just start watching Knick games in the 90s? They took plenty of **** from the Bulls, Rockets and Pacers. Let's don't sugarcoat anything here.

dude i know u haven't been around these forums too long but this board was going ape**** when we passed up on Marcus Williams & picked Balkman instead... every good game that guy had ever since u heard about it on these forums... he was referred to as the next Mark Jackson by many... i don't wanna single out names but i think everyone knows what i'm talking about.

I still remember Briggs Kermit the Frog line about Isiah when Stern called Balkman's name. Classic.

I was one of the people who was angry we took Balkman over Williams at the draft. I never praised Williams in the NBA and whoever did is an idiot. He sucked and still does.

Truth be told, both players really aren't any good and both can possibly be out of the league in a few years.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

That was so funny. I have never cared for Marcus Williams game. I told BRIGGS that Williams was more likely the next Rick Brunson, but it seems I was being a little too kind.

By the way nyk4ever, Derrick Rose will be a good NBA player, but nowhere near #1 pick good.

We'll see, I for one love the kids game and I do think he has a chance of reaching Deron Williams/Chris Paul status.

Not for nothing oohah (and I know it's only preseason)

Derrick Rose tonight (playing against the Mavs where Mavs guards played about 24 mins)
38mins 30pts (13/18fg) 7assists(3to)

Not bad..

a lot of that was against 2nd and 3rd stringers after the Mavs were up by almost 30

spking of the Mavs

with such a bad bench after Terry, maybe they'd like to trade for Crawford

rockets too since Craw is friends with T-Mac whom you can't count on to stay healthy
