LOL did you see Lee try and box out instead of go for the block?

Is this your first time watching Lee play?

I don't blame him. He doesn't seem to like Nate either. I know you might disagree but the common denominator is that neither plays a lick of D, nor tries to. I know this team sucks defensively, but most of the other guys atleast try to play.

I think he tolerates Nate more than Lee. I don't think it is just defense either. Reports before D'Antoni arrive to the Knicks was him not being the biggest Lee fan. And from I heard from him, he believes Lee's offense is a product of his coaching staff. I think he believes he can do that with another big that can shoot. I think he is willing to live and die with Nate's issues but not Lee's.

C'mon man have you seen D this terrible???

Lee is playing hurt to be fair. This defense he's playing now is a whole new kind of suck.

I disagree. He's always played ****ty defensively, now he just has an excuse.

I hate David Lee and his stupid ass ego and his no-care attitude. I am proud to be the president of the David Lee Hater Association of America.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Just for shiggles, I did the math on our "tragic" number. It's currently 8.

This game came down to the Knicks running out of some steam and the Magic just turning up the defense to a level we could not handle.

Throw in three or four bad plays by Nate (passes, shots, fouls). Three bad ones by Chandler (two so stupid and horrendous you'd think he was a DLeaguer). Lee's atrocious defense.

...and the Magic had just enough Knick mistakes to capitalize on to take the game.

Now, two real big plays that stand out: The botched goaltending call on Wilcox's put back that was a clean play (2 points lost). Nate giving that chump Anthony Johnson 2 freebie points with 1.7 secs to go in the 3rd Q (2 more points lost).

You factor those in, mistakes down the stretch or not, the Knicks win the game. Doesn't take much to screw up a game in this league does it.

and, nate was sitting there yapping at him and lee when his focus should be on the game. bottom line - the knicks do not know how to win a close game. thats where good leadership and mental focus comes in, which the knicks have none.

Yup. When Q is your only leader left and Tim Thomas and Malik Rose were your other leaders.....you're just not going to keep it together as a team when things get rough.

No biggie, it's all about the future plan, but for a single game, they sure made a handful of really terrible decisions. That alone makes you question who, if anyone, is really considered a keeper.

LOL.

Well, in regards to "keepers" I was alluding to the four supposed future players in Lee, Nate, Chandler, Gallo.

In that, I'll really let these four have it, just to illustrate in melodramatic fashion as to why I'm not so sure EITHER is a keeper!

Lee: One dimensional rebounder...he really is...we really overrated this guy.
Nate: Still so damn immature...selfish and stupid with the ball...he can lose you games and has done it.
Chandler: This guy is dumb as bricks and erratic. He did 3 things in the 4th Q against Orlando that had me furious because they were such STUPID FUCKING PLAYS that not even high school kids make those kinds of mistakes.
Gallo: To surgery or not to surgery or just collect my fat NBA paycheck and "rest and be re-evaluated in 2-4 weeks" while I coast to my 2010-2011 team option. Enough already. Go get surgery or ILL GIVE YOU SURGERY you pain in the ass! At least he's a 2010 expiring LOL.


When you really dig into these guys are any of them keepers? They show promise but they do it on a TERRIBLE LOSING team.
