Ok I get a hunch after reading today's headlines that if Ward is not traded than Eisley will rot on the bench as the 3rd string PG. This would be ludicrous because I think Eisley is the best PG we have.

well, van gundy said, the best player will play. Lets see how they do in training camp. i would like eisley to play because of his 3 pointer and also ward would take it better if he was 3rd string PG. but im happy that they arent trading him for ostertag or dampier. lets face it, we wont get foyle. both big guys are dead weights. and with ward having a good camp he is a good backup 2nd or 3rd string.

First, there is no way, with Van Gundy's rotation, that we are going to consistently play all three of them. Actually, there is no way with ANY coaches rotation that all three of them would play.

Second, JVG's and Layden's "Vote of Confidence" to me is the surest sign that he is sitting on the bench. The guy has meant a lot ot the organization these past few years, and he could be valuable if one of the other two go down. They want Ward to be happy sitting at the end of the pine, so they let everyone know how much they like him. But Jackson will be the starter, and Eisley is too valuable a 3-pt shooter to sit on the bench.

Listen Knicks Fan, Laydan talking politics, how a good point guard like Eisley be the 3 man on the bench, all these sweet talk about Charlie Ward is just Basketball politics. Feel sorry for Charlie, but you guys watch, he'll be trade sometime this weekend or the trading deadline.

Strong Knick Fan!!!!!!
