I bet isiah wishes Lee had Fryes jumpshot along with his toughness around the boards.

Guys like Lee and Frye belong on good teams who don't look for them to play so many minutes to do their thing.

Both of these players IMHO need a well balanced roster around them to help a team win and contribute doing what they do best.

Lee-hustle scoring off putback/off rebs .
Frye- taking back up centers or pf out of the paint area and knock down shots to stretch the defense.

Isiah drafted well but the veterans he inherited or recieved in trades or FA are not the guys you build around.
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

Lee and Frye are both 23 yrs old. By the time they reach thier prime, hopefully they will have that balanced roster you speak of. But neither are finished products at this point so theres time.

Instead of everyone worrying about whats wrong with Lee and Frye, how about we talk about whats right with them. There are bunch of other teams that would love to have our so called problems in Lee and Frye.

For all the things that are wrong with this team, Lee, Frye, and Curry at least provide some hope...If Curry and Frye could block shots and rebound, and Lee could shoot, we might actually have something going on here.

I guess you didn't understand my point.

I'm talking about the $2000 seats New York Knicks not SanAntonio.

The problem with those type players is that with James DOLANhe is the guy who's signing checks his philosophy doesn't guarantee those guys will be around when they "FULLY" develop.
Ny has to win now and won't have veteran pieces around who could help lead these young players curry frye and Lee.

Now on any other avg team yea, you build around these type of good work ethic type of youngsters and wait on them.

My point is that at 6'10 frye should be
in the 5 feet away range and not chucking up jump shot,to
me he is the second coming of Keith Van Horn.

What's the amount of games has Frye has missed since being a rookie. He's cotton ball soft and gets at least four fouls a game.

Maybe we can get somebody for Frye. I am not even scared of Frye.

Lol, cmon dude he aint that bad, im no knick jockstrap, but I like Frye. Hes no Garnett, but hes pretty solid, that jumpshot of his is a blessing, not a curse. Hes got that nice little jumphook of his too that falls consistently. I also think hes doing a little better with grabbing boards and blocking shots. If he steps up the rebounds and defense, develops another go to move in the post, and shaves his chin i think he can be a 20/8 kind of player. Albeit, a flawed 20/8, but def not some guy who needs to go. You talk about place where we need to improve you need to talk about our backcourt, our young bigs are solid.

The only thing frye would be good is "TRADE BAIT".

He belongs on another team period, his style doesn't not fit this team.

If the center is gonna be Curry then frye will not prosper as a PF.

Lee can be the guy who compensates curry's weaknesses...frye doesn't.

I hope Isiah see this and trades frye for a nice sf who can shoot the light s out.
