Eisley enters and another epic offensive drought ensues.

That kid is garbage. Always has been.

What a mess. Didn`t see the game all the way through,was it Bowen guarding KVH?


I am new here

Cheers all

Sweets is FAT. He needs to go on a major program if he is going to be aplayer in this league. Totally embarrassing! All this being said, he did do any worse than Spoon. The guy they want to trade is Harrington and he is the most effective of all of them

The Knicks looked like last year's team. Nothing like vs the Magic. Plenty of fouls, but they themselves didnt get to the line, KVH did pretty pathetic. Its probably gonna be a Spree-Houston seesaw again.

They just didnt have anyone to look for to score. Defense wasnt bad until it completely crumbled somewhere in the 4th or 3rd.

Knicks better get this organized or this is gonna be a notehr crap season.

It is so obvious the Ward and Eisley are back ups on this team and would fair better going up against opposing teams backups. So by default we need Frank to PLAY BEFORE THEM just to see what will happen as for creativity on offense.

Read back what you just wrote. You seem to think that trading means getting rid of your worst guys. If it were that easy, the league would be half teams with all great players and half teams with all the worst players ("I'll trade you Shaq for Travis Knight!"). No one wants Eisley/Spoon/Anderson. We're stuck with them until the final years of their respective contracts. But Harrington could get us someone decent. Keeping him around is meaningless, as he'll never be so good that he'll get substantial minutes with all the undersize PF's we have.

Harrington is tradeable BECAUSE he's better than Spoon, Anderson, etc. You try to get equal value for a decent player at a position that needs the player. In this case, shooting guard.

You trade the guys that other teams want for someone you want. You can't trade what no one wants, unless the contracts are about to expire.

Yes, you are right. And if harrington is our most tradeable asset, we are in bigger trouble than I thought! If Eisley, Anderson and Spoon are so unwanted, why did Layden give them soooo much money? I say buy them out and go with guys like Jason Hart and other CBA players who are at least hungry!
