I know that this dude is a good veteran, but he really doesn't deserve the minutes that he has gotten so far. He was horrible on Defense and on offense. Maybe he will be replaced by one of our youngins...

I'm thinking Pierce going to the line 20 times in the 1st half had something to do with it!

Because he is a veteran. Thats all. But Brown will soon realize that even if he isn't experienced, Frye is the better option. It will take some games, but Rose will see less and less time.

There's no *good* reason why Rose was in the game or why AD was playing more minutes than Frye and Lee. Whether the goal is to give experience to the young guys *OR* to win right now, Frye and Lee should be playing ahead of those players. It's a no-win situation when those veterans play ahead of Frye and Lee IMO. Larry's smart; he probably wants to give the veterans their fair chance before playing the young guys ahead of them.

Its the start of the season, guys! Brown won't play the rooks significant minutes from the start unless they are vital on their position (see Nate). Frye may be way better than Rose, but Rose is the veteran so right now he gets the nod. That will change soon, but from the start, Brown needs to feel safe in playing experienced players.

Rose was in to try and stop Pierce in the first half. He didn't. The best D on Pierce was played by ARIZA.

Darn Ariza! If he only had a mid range jumper!

Yeah, because LB doesn't play rooks or young guys...unless they're Isiah's pet of the month.

Agreed, I thought this guy was supposed to add the rebounding punch and defense. Blount had his way with him, and AD was slow to rebounds. I am sure Frye could have gotten the same amount of rebounds and scored more points. That guy will waste on that bench this season.

it's totally clear why rose was in the game. barnes, ariza, and Q each had two or three fouls. larry didn't want any of them going into the second half already with four fouls. so he put malik in. basic coaching, guys. malik is not part of the rotation, he's not the one taking frye's PF minutes...

Thank you.

Words like rationalizing and objectivity don't apply to most Knick fans. Pierce put all 3 small forwards in early foul trouble so he had to go to Rose.

"He is Darko-ing Lee" works better for the mob. Not too much thought or extrapolation. Perfect!

Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

Don Nelson actually did a good job with the mavericks, but obviously larry is the best coach we can have right now. anyway as some have already stated putting rose in the game to play the SF postiion was a pretty good move since peirce was lighting us up. but you know after watching tonights game I realized something, and that is that we should either trade for D miles soon or start ariza ahead of barnes or if barnes is starting than exploit his shooting skills more on offense, seeing as how thats the only advantage he has over ariza.
