I can't believe Larry is now borrowing some of the Bulls' plays--very good move by LB. As soon as Curry gets more comfortable he will get us over the hump and into the playoffs.

Does anyone feel like tonight is a new beginning for our team? It kind of feels like the real beginning of the season...

I sure hope it is... This team need a win... BADLY.

A W right now would finally take the "we didn;t win a game yet" pressure off the team, hopefully allowing them to focus better.
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

Once they get a "W" underneath their belts, they'll be less pressure.. There is too many players on this squad.. They're still under pre-season mode so it's really gonna take some time for this team to really gel.

Hopefully it won't be too late cause there are alot of good eastern conference teams out there..

Knicks do not want to be too far behind for a playoff spot..
The Future. GO KNICKS!

The good thing with having too many players is that nobody is guaranteed to get minutes--everyone will have to earn their playing time. Having that competition within the team should make us better.

it also creates redundancy and uncertainty about a players role.

LB maybe should take this approach:

Guys that are injured (Q) / lame (Penny) / badly out of shape (Jerome James and maybe Curry) go to the Inactive list until they bring their games up.

Roll with what we have and then move on.

The knicks are in an interesting position where no one is really injured and everyone can make a case for playing.

well, for all the crap we spew as fans...and there's no denying it, melodramatic is a synonym with knicks' fans, even tho we're 0-3, we pretty much played like crap offensively, and lost 1 game b/c of free throws (and possibly not playing frye) and another game b/c LB had his head stuck up in ass for 6 mins. so we COULD be 2-1 and still "figuring out who to play".

I'm glad they are trying to get Curry more involved in the game. He seems to struggle if he has to create on the block. He tends to go for that right handed hook with the defense bumping the hell out of him. That is definately a lazy mans move. You make that move when you don't have your legs or if you are not really into the game.

Larry.....what's going on bro? What was training camp about just teaching fundementals? I wanna see some more backdoor stuff. I also wanna see Marbs be himself and create. Give him the freedom Baron Davis has. That seed should be planted already.

*Sigh*

It's just frustrating.
