C - Frye
PF- Lee
SF - Balkman
SG - Woods (or Crawford)
PG - N.Robinson


Shifting Woods to the 2 allows Balkman to play the 3, Lee the 4, Frye at 5. I think he could do it although he will continue to struggle defensively. Whe would actually have speed and hustle players that can score enough. Maybe our lineup when we hit the west coast. I really hope IT resigns Woods!

The Knicks would score 90 points a night and probably give up 115 points a night. No way I want that lineup on the floor for any significant amount of time. When you want to give some guys a breather than fine but to start games and play together for 20mpg? No way no how.

couple of problems with that Lineup. No PG to lead the team on the break, inexperienced and its awful defensively. If we somehow got rid of Francis/Q, I think a Craw/Woods SG tandem would work great as Crawford could defend quick SGs and Woods can handle the big ones.

or you can try putting Crawford/Woods in the backcourt and they'll run just as much, defend better and be more efficient offensively than with Nate in there

You put in a trapping defense ala Rick Pitino style and that lineup can create havoc in the defensive end.

you'd most likely see Crawford orchestrating with that lineup w/Nate running at the 2 spot.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
