A major reason for the recent surge along with the rock solid play of Nate Robinson

Mo has the cuts to prove it

i like mo T now. he's shown a lot of hustle on D and the boards and some consistency on offense. still, the best thing he could do for us is earn some trade value next to his contract.

Just keep giving Frye more PT, and AD less, and I'm fine with Mo T's minutes.

MoT is playing well, i liked how he didnt back down from Etan Thomas. Also he hits the deck for us and stepped it up on da defense

I have been saying it since before the season. Maurice Taylor might not be as good as everyone thought he would be, but he isn't a bad player. Just lazy sometimes.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

I like how he plays, but you have to admit he holds on to the ball too long when he has it in the paint, he also at times can get into trouble by picking fight with a player from another team or silly offensive fouls, but I guess that happens when you mix it up in the paint.

Frye and Mo deserve the minutes at 4, playing AD there spots the other team points.

OK. I am in the minority here then. I still don't like the way he plays, especially on offense. He's a black hole. Gets the ball. Spends 5-8 seconds stutter stepping (half the time travelling) and juking, and never looks for a pass, and finally launches up an ugly shot. Happened to go in last night, but I think he disrupts the flow of the offense.

Panos - Black hole, schmack hole. Mo is turning into an enforcer as an apprentice to Antonio Davis. He received a nasty scratch across his face last night. He's just now learning how to play in a new sysytem. I like it.

Mo taylor is the kind of guy you have to spot his minutes, when he is hot feed him, because when he scores he does everything else, hwen he is cold, sit him ,because he basically becomes useless, but that is OK, we are deep enough to do that, but when he is playing well, he gives the knicks another option, not many teams have, a legit low post scorer...

I think Panos has it right -- Mo T gets brainlocked every time he gets the ball down low. Reminds me of Ewing -- get the ball, take 5-8 seconds to decide what to do, just kills any flow they have to the offense.
The new new core: Randle, RJ, IQ. Maybe Mitch. Future pick. Future trade. Future FA.

I said it then and I'll say it again. I always liked Mo T as a player. Yes he was overpriced, but we traded all of Vin, Moochie and a 2nd rounder for him. All he has to do is keep doing what he's doing. He's a valuable piece for us.

I'd still rather have Vin and Moochie's expiring contracts and the 2nd rd picks, but Mo is here and can definitely play solidly

He's one of those guys where it's all up to whether his shot is falling or not. If not, man he looks bad!
