this knick unit stinks..

the whole point of pre-season is to test guys out & see what rotations they play in best... i don't think we're gonna be seeing Ewing Jr., Roberson & Mardy on the floor in a close game w/5 minutes to play too many times during the season.

I thought we would

ah yes, the great Jared fishlips Jefferies... can't wait til he shows us all how a real bigman is supposed to play this game.

i think he'll do pretty well in this system. i'm most excited to see gallinari.

based on this game and the rest of the pre, it really seems the lineup/rotation should be:

PG Duhon
SG Marbury
SF Chandler
PF Lee
C ZBO
6 Nate
7 Qrich
8 Mardy

then hopefully Gallinari and Jefferies make ten. Jamal and Eddy can play in Reno.

btw, i'm so glad we threw Balkman away so we could have a roster spot for Roberson... he's indispensible in every sense of the word.

No Lee on the floor is the difference of how close this game is.
I'll never trust this' team again.

Nice steal by Yi to get down low with Nate's dribble. Ewing looks horrible. How will the press write this performance up?

lol... gotta love how y'all are reasoning to urselves how a career scrub like Jefferies is gonna fit this system while a 20 ppg scorer like Jamal belongs in the D leagues... come on, put down the haterade & relax... it's preseason... let's make final judgements after a few weeks of real games at least.

Yeah, nice to hear Karl and Anthony praise Balkman's unselfish play and hard nose defense.

tms, i know you like jamal, but the fact is that preseason or not, he has shown absolutely nothing. to the point where he's actually losing minutes out there. so far, even mardy is outperforming him. and this was the year he was supposed to *threaten* to make the all star team.

Think MDA's calling off the dogs here with the back-to-back situation...

I agree. If the Knicks lose this one, then we'll definately know why. D'Antoni has' to be able to look at the last of these players before he decides who the last two spots goes to. I'm willing to sacrifice two loses if it means getting the best possible 15 on the floor that we can.
I'll never trust this' team again.

One thing Brook Lopez has proved is that he's NOT your typical Pac10 big man, which is something I said many times prior to the draft. Many people felt he was just going to be another Frye becuase he was coming out of the Pac10 but Lopez has a much better offensive game fit for a big man. I wasn't interested in Lopez come draft-time because I didnt know how he'd fit within our offense, but I do think he'll fit excellent in the Nets half-court offense.

i don't disagree w/u that he's struggling right now this preseason, but the reasoning some of you guys use to justify your desire to see this guy off the team is pretty funny if u ask me... but hey, everyone has their favorites & non favorites... i'm gonna defend Jamal til i see how he plays this year... all i know is he's been 1 of the only guys i've had fun rooting for since Isiah took over this damn team, so he's got a little rope w/me.
