At least he's honest or did he misspeak again?

No more trading away our future for bums and geriatrics. I know this is all wishful thinking and it will never happen with Dolan as our owner. I just wanted to vent.

I like that lineup.

It's probably one or 2 guys too many, but certain guys, specifically Bargs & Amar'e, get short leashes. Amar'e's just gotta play period, whether he's effective or not. It's part of the prcess to re-establish him as a cog on this team. At least 15 mins... If he's ineffective, Aldrich has gotta see some of that time. We need more toughness beside Martin to combat Biyombo and Adrien inside. As for Bargs -- if he's showing some offense like he did in the Minnesota game, he plays. If not, he can sit and I'd shuffle the frontcourt w/o him.

I want Woodson to give Beno a chance to sink or swim and not keep him in limbo for too long. This lineup is good for Chandler being out but I want to see all our guards in action before the end of the year. Find out what we have.

If Chandler misses time, Kenyon Martin said, "I'm ready ."

Just keep it together Kmart, lol.

I believe him, I just don't think his body is capable of starter minutes at this point. He gives just as much on defense as Tyson, but he's not going to get as many rebounds as Chandler at this point in his career.

Yes! It feels like that 18-24 period all over again. A certain ambiguity, depression, and incompetence hovering over the team.

Yea, what makes it really tough to handle is that there are almost no positives in the situation. Actually, there are no positives; I can't think of one.

Doesn't that always seem to be the way it goes though- our most important players get injured, the scrubs remain healthy. Been that way for decades!
