Here's a thought out of left field. Bench Q and start Jones. Move Jamal to SF, and use him as a Point Forward there.

Curry
Randolph
Crawford
Jones
Marbury

Hey, it can't be worse than what we are already doing.

There is no answer. They all stink in their own precious little ways. All of them.

There is no internal answer. There just isn't.

How does a player shooting 31 percent which has to be one of the worst in the league get 16 shots in a game? I would have no problem if he was a great passer, defender, and took care of the basketball. Fred Jones is a much better player and needs to be playing in front of Q.

any lineup that has curry and randolph starting stinks, and in marbury and I rather watch the sonics..

curry gets outplayed by a offensive bum like dalembert, Zach gets housed by reggie, friggin evans, and Q the problem? I don't see how.. yea, maybe ne needs to come off the bench, but he is not part of the big problem with this team....

take randolph and marbury out of your lineup and then we can talk.. LOL..

Curry has slumped in 4 of the last 5 games he's played. His minutes have dropped under 30 and it seems like he's messed up mentally on what he's trying to do. He seems to be trying to block more shots and he passed the ball out of the post a bit better, but offensively he lost right now.

Zach in the last 4 games has lost focus and has been a TO machine. He's been forcing his shots and overall hasn't been playing well. But he hasn't been like this all season.

Q tho has been bad most of the season. He's clearly been a problem for how this team functions offensively at least. We get killed at his position every night.

Q stinks, but the reason why this team really stinks is as Follows:

Isiah

Marbury

Zach


Benching Q would help since he is out played by a combined -22 every single night(when you add up difference in points/assists/steals/blocks). Wilson and Blakman should play more.

Q, for me.. is unwatchable. He's small for the three.. and he's slow. Good combination. He doesn't really do anything well anymore. Isiah is trying to justify his trade.. or something. Maybe he's his only confidant in the locker room. He tries to play D.. but he's too slow.

Balkman should start. It should be elementary. Either that .. or he who bitches most.. gets minutes. Fred JOnes.. Wilson Chandler.. anyone but Q.

Guys, you are all over the place...
You know the problem is the GM/coach. Right?
Why are you fooling yourself?
The playing time and starting is distributed based on what was/is spent on the players with small variations to please the crowd.
This man want to drag it as much as possible and he will.

For me the thinking about the roster and who should start will begin after he will be gone.

Sounds like a well-constructed team!

This team still has a bright future though. These are just losses, which happen sometimes, and players not doing well, which will also happen.

Stuff happens. Tomorrow, you just go out and do it all over again.

Everyone stinks, i love balkman and now he stinks too. He does nothing. I forgot Isiah said it takes 9 years to rebuild.
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.

Sometimes your team stinks and sometimes it smells nice. You just try again tomorrow (hopefully after bathing).

Stinking happens. No Biggee.

there is no answer until u fix the roster... u could even bring in the Answer & it still wouldn't fix the problem.



(btw, anyone catch that 35 pt. 12 ast. 6 stl. game he put up vs. DAL the other night? that is 1 badass mofo right there!)
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
