So far in watching this game the Knicks are playing much smoother without these two knuckle-heads slowing them down.

If we can find a way to ship these 2 guys to say Denver for Watson, Leonard, and Nene would be ideal.

But from watching this game we have a nice rotation going:

Pg: Marbury, [Watson - if aquired]
Sg: Nate, Crawford
Sf: Lee, Ariza
Pf: AD, Mo T
C: Curry, Frye

Yeah, this should be the permanent rotation until a trade happens. Larry Brown should have figured that out tonight.

Add Woods to that list...sick of watching him reach on offense while Lee gets pine time and the last 2 games mean nothing; with LB I wouldn't be surprised to see Lee inactive for the next week.

Yeah, definitely Jerome James has to be the worst signing we have made in many years. What a freaking bum! All he does is talk a big game and play big lame.

Q-Rich has just been such a dissapintment, its really sad.

Won't miss them when they are gone...

I let my hope that it would work out cloud my evaluation of the signing, but it's obvious to everyone now that Isiah made a mistake in signing JJ. It's 20/20 hindsight and no one thought SF would be a weakness but how much better would our record be had we signed Gerald Wallace: 14 PPG, 6 RPG, 2 APG, 2 BPG, 2 SPG

Bonn working on his hate-cred to appease the bashers. Bonnie don't give up the ghost - the universe goes out of alignment if you do!!!!!

J/K This team's current performance and the status of our next 2 drafts is testing all of our senses of balance!

Ariza stinks, he has no offensive skills. He cant hit a 10 foot jump shot. His D is great but that will only take him so far in this league. He has not improved his game at all. We all saw it in the summer league when all the rookies on the team out played him.
I want to leave something that's going to stand for a long timeI want to leave a legacy,I want to leave tradition.I want to leave an imprint,a blueprint in terms of how people play,and how they coach and how they respond when they put on the Knick uni.

ariza was actually hitting his jumpshot in the ORL game.. i'm sure it is something he is working on.

you haven't been watching the games. Ariza is on a short'ish leash on the offensive ends of things and his jumpshot HAS imprvoed since last year.

Why is he on a short leash? Frye and Nate are not. Everyone knows he has no game on offense. I like the guy but he has not improved in my opinion. Just b/c he made a few shots in one game is not an improvement.

Hey man, at least you see it now. But I don't think anyone could have thought JJ would have been THIS bad. But then again, his career what, 6, 7 and 3 doesn't exactly thrill the nerves. It's like I said, we should have really really looked into signing Dan Gaszurick or Hunter if we really wanted a backup C b/c those guys bring energy and DG is now in more control and playing smarter. But we were relying on James to not only be a solid player, but a friggin' starter, which isn't smart business, given his entire history.

I dont think DG was an option, but i agree about Hunter, we def could have gotten him for less than JJ.
