Bump Steve Francis

Get Marbury back and let him bond with Jalen Rose for a few practices before kvetching over another idle rumor.

Get David Lee into the lineup in place of Mo Taylor for better ball movement, Start him again.

Get the straight-shooting Qyntel minutes as seventh man with Frye as straigh-shooting sixth man

Get Quentin ready for an honorary courage award for hanging tough through injuries and anguish

Get Eddy Curry the ball

Let the yoots grow thicker hides and stay the course, whatever course it is, and just play better basketball.

Let Larry and Isiah fight behind closed doors all they need to make the Knicks better. Don't forget to smile for the cameras

Let my people run!

There is no good justification for starting Lee over Frye right now.

I agree.

One thing, we need to move Craw or Nate for a back up PG. Thats not huge, but it would help.

At some point, Jailen needs to sit and let the yute develope.

Little Stevie don't do nuthing for me.

Tangential Question: What's the origin of the slang term 'Yoots' (assuming 'youth')?

I believe D.Lee would better suit the Knicks has a Power Foward...thats the only way I would start Lee over Frye.

It probably won't get done unless Lee or Nate replaces Ariza, and I wouldn't do that.

His thick NY accent he could not say "youth", but pronounced it "Yutes!) or "Yoots", Or "Yhootz", and perhaps "Utes" if you akin to anything "Utah".

You'd really rather have Nate than Steve Francis? I like Nate a lot and see him as a wonderful energetic 6th man but I don't see him as ever impacting the game the way Francis can. I don't think Nate will ever be able to be a starter at a position in the NBA.

I think the idea was not giving up the rooks for Francis. Its not Nate for Francis, is it?

Lee was a part of that statement.

Now I for one would not give up Lee as part of it.

I would never say Lee is ever better than Francis, but Lee might be one of those minor players that plays a big role in ball movement, chemistry, and fundamentals.

Isiah must think not just pieces, but how the recipe allworks together.
