eddy just doesn't have the stamina. he gets tired and commits stupid fouls.

pierce is sleepwalking.

difference in this game is the zone defense and eddy + frye outplaying gomes + perkins + jefferson.

As they should. Pure Talent wise I think our duo is better than their trio. But I still think their trio fits together better than our duo, just for the record.

Scott Skiles on Curry: "What we miss most from Eddy is just his ability to catch the ball by the basket and dunk it."

In other words, if you get him the ball next to the goal, he is able to dunk it. As for what else he brings to the table, we don't miss that at all.


Scott Skiles - 3-8, on his way to 3-9. he's such a basketball genius, I can see why it's important to give a crap what he thinks.

How many rebounds does Curry have as a benefit of playing in the middle of the zone and not having to move?

Good point joe

it's a strategy I wish they'd use more, seriously, I think it benefits the whole team.

I'm not gonna complain about it because it's a win win situation. But I want to go on record now that by him doing it this way it doesn't make him a good rebounder.

But it does benefit in several ways-
Curry doesn't have to expand energy boxong out or, um, jumping.
Curry doesn't have to think about ball trajectories

It's called a zone. every team in the league uses it.
We established it's a zone.

are we allowed to count DLee in our trio? how about Jefferies? Balkman?

yeah, I said at the time I thought what they did - essentially trading Tyson Chandler for an aging Ben Wallace was stupid, and it's really looking that way. Big Ben has 0pts and 0rebs tonight in 20 minutes. If Eddy did that, he'd be lynched.

He was just saying how "brutal, and I mean brutal" the schedule has been for the Knicks in November. 17 games this month, 10 on the road. Oh, poor knicks. It's no wonder they're below .500.

COunt Lee in our trio and I don't change my general opinion. Gomes is a SF, Jefferson is a PF and Perkins a C. Lee is a PF, Curry and Frye are centers whose strengths don't compliment each other well.

Pure talent-Us.
Better put together-Them.

How about:

SF - Jefferies, Balkman
PF - Lee, Frye
C - Curry, Frye

it's not how they're put together, it's how they're used. and we haven't even seen Jefferies yet.
