Knicks fans have been dreaming of an agile center who can run and disrupt shots in the paint...

pg. Nate
sg: Crawford
sf: Lee
pf:Randolph
c: Jefferies

I floated this idea a few months back. Its unorthodox but the man is 6'11 and as a SF he is only blocking the progress and playing time of Balkman and Chandler.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

He would be more effective than Curry or Lee at disrupting shots up the middle...

I never feel right about rooting for a player to get injured... but I would like to see Q get injured, so Balkman or Lee can start at SF and Chandler can get some run.

Lee at SF i don't like... why not have Balk start at the 3 w/Lee & Zach upfront? Balk's a better shotblocker than Jefferies regardless of his shorter height IMO... u can then start Q Rich at the 2 w/Jamal at point & have Nate be the 6th man.

seriously, i don't see a guy on this team as insignificant in terms of his production on the court than that guy... he just looks like a really tall dude running around the court like a chicken with its head cut off on most possessions... i would so much rather see Chandler or Morris getting minutes over fishlips.

Actually, I'm not (but I saw plenty of him when I lived in DC and he played there). So, yes, he is utter garbage. But this utter garbage may be better than our franchise-caliber garbage.

you would have a more mobile frontcourt over starting Curry at C, which means u can run a more uptempo style game in the open court... you would also keep Jefferies' sorry butt on the bench where he belongs... either way, it's an improvement.

These players stink. My God, what more prove do you need? It has nothing to do with lineups or X's and O's. They are not good players. Come on already.

Come on already what? We're not supposed to discuss Knick lineups on a Knicks site?
