forget about getting close to .500 or sniffing the playoffs... this season's cooked... Isiah needs to just play the young kids & see if they've improved... so far Nate & Jamal have been playing well since Marbury's been out of the rotation... the same needs to be done at the SF position w/Balkman & Chandler... Q Rich & Jefferies need to be benched & those kids needs to be playing more as well as Mardy & Morris.

That's a longshot. Best bet is we will be scratching and crawling for that last 8th seed spot only to lose out to another east team that won the season tiebreaker. Then Isiah (yes still not yet fired) draft another SF in the mid to late lottery pick. It is inevitable. Can you taste that Eny?

At best the Knicks can go 22-23 and end the season with 34 wins.

I'm still tasting stuff from back in 2001.

Don't we have a logjam at SF- I mean Jeffries, Balkman, and Q Richardson - not to mention Wilson Chandler? If anything - i think we need to get a back court player-or another PF - thats a shot blocker.

all of that makes sense, but Isiah the coach will never stab Isiah the GM in the back.... In other words, that will never happen..

Balkman has gotten better with his ball handling and passing on the break. He leads the break like a point guard.

I think the young guys all have stepped up from day one......young guys meaning Nate, Balkman, Lee, and even Chandler in the flashes we've seen.

Isiah is in love with force feeding Curry and Zach. Nate and Craw are forcing that to change. Balkman is also willing his way back on the court.

The Knicks just lack focus.....it seemed to show during this teaser of a win streak. Ball movement and attack.

Defensive play has kinda picked up too with Balkman and the zone the Knicks run.

Its taking to long but all the Knicks answers are right in Isiah's face. He ordered the parts, put it together but can't figure out how to work it.

Man this is all i've been saying all season. Isiah screwed the pooch on this one, but there are some players here to continue to the process of fixing this team.

ur right... which is why Isiah has to go... if he's allowed to stay on as GM & coach this team will never take a step forward.
