I think Davis got to many minutes ! Frye should have been in there against Lafrenze. He is no threat to beat up on Frye in the post, hell they are almost the same player. Overall Freethrows caused the loss but Coaching played a part because LB kept AD in instead of Frye who could have provided better offense and better shot blocking than AD.

I agree with your post...Frye should have gotten some minutes....especially at the expense of big James. I know that Larry is old school and will probably take a few more games to realize that. when Curry wasn't on the court, Frye should have came in to at least provide some offense, because our front court wasn't able to score at that time. A lineup of Marb, Q, Ariza, Frye and A. Davis would have caused a lot of problems to Boston......

I must admit, Boston has a hell of a PG

dide i was thinking about that, and remembered that West and Green are at competition for the starting point guard spot, and now that Banks is out, it will have be one or the other and he came out to show and prove his ability, I like the kid still, him and Jameer Nelson from their ncaa days

He played a great game. What a block he had on Curry! Thats what I would like to see more from the Knicks, be active every time, never give up on a play. The Celtics were all over the place, and West lead the way...
