Why did Isiah take out Balkman?
That year he was at Larry Brown's coaching camp, he got an A from Larry in player rotation.

lol

When do you think Isiah will break out those defensive schemes that he said he was saving for the regular season?

I'm loving this stand there with your feet planted to the floor while they drain shot after shot.

Why are the Knicks constantly trying to adjust to other teams substitutions instead of the Pacers adjusting to us? Q should be on the court. But because Harrington is sitting Q has to sit to Isiah?

Where are the boos?

Umm, maybe people aren't quite as quick to the trigger as some of the Knick "faithful."

Some of y'all are like wolves surrounding the heard, just waiting for the kill.

We're down 8 points, not 28.
Dude. I'm an optimist and think we have a chance to win 40 or so this year. But I also believe in crowd feedback when there's not enough energy being shown.

Why? What is booing going to accomplish? I have always had an aversion to "boo birds." What's the point of booing your own team when you want them to win? I remember in 1996 when the Yankees traded for Graham Lloyd, who was suppossed to be good, but he sucked coming off an injury going into the playoffs. I was at a playoff game when Torre brought him into the game and suddenly fans started booing the guy. I was like, how is this suppossed to help the guy who we need to perform well? It's just seems so illogical to boo your own players, that whenever it happens I think it's ridiculous. Do fans honestly think the players don't know they are playing poorly and enjoy it. If you ever played competitive sports you know that losing is not fun. Please. Some fans can be just so self righteous.

Same deal with A-Rod and the insane fact that Yankee fans booed Giambi in his debut with the Yanks at the home opener (I was there) because they missed Tino Martinez. I see this kind of stuff is childish, hence my opposition to booing teams even when they suck. The fact that less fans come (this season's home opener is NOT sold out), is more than enough reason to let management know that fans are skeptical.

It will let the Knicks players know that their effort sucks.

It they're honestly trying and the effort is there I agree with you, booing is stupid. But if they're hardly trying on defense and they're showing no passion then booing is not only justified but should be expected.

If Larry was here, Cato would be starting.

bad player?

haha...sure...

how about growing pains of a young player, which is a combination of multiple factors that don't fit into a quick fire answer.

Your question requires an essay question, not multiple choice.

well, can we not speculate on what those "multiple factors" might be?

Sure we can. In fact you can write whatever you like, whether I agree or not, but I just don't see explaining the reason Frye is struggling as one thing fair in any manner, especially when some of the choices involve players who clearly have created a bad reputation amongst the sports talk radio/ny post/daily news crowd.

I wonder why the Knicks players were allowed to participate in this years marketing campaign.

I really miss those cardboard cutouts.

That was a good block and Isiah should have been Tee'd up.
