I like him coming off the bench. He always wanted to be more of a scorer, and so shoots a bit too much sometimes. Maybe this issue gets negated bit if he comes off the bench- he gets to shoot the ball more and be more of an option offensively. He seems to like being the leader of the bench players.
I noticed as soon as he became a Knick, all the nba writers started making out he was old and washed up. Since when is 33 considered old and past it in this league? He had a small resurgence last year (he looked bad in the shortened season before that I think because he was out of shape), he's not done yet!
