i'll start watching more closely again when the nix reach .500.

until then the so-called real fans can continue arguing about how many angels fit on the head of a pin

Yes and the rest will continue to refine the definition of "front runner".

When there was a defensive lapse, or something went wrong on offense, more often than not they talked it over, or yelled at each other and went over what should have happened. Even Woodson was yelling at JR with seconds left in the game.

One thing that worries me is Beno. Two consecutive plays in crunch time he coughed up the ball. Not the first time he's done that late in a game. Would rather have Murry in there if its a choice between the two.

I agree about Beno. Also, Murry got shook when he was pressured in the fourth quarter. Amare hit a big shot and bailed him out. Hopefully Murry continues to develop. I still think the best move with Beno is to see if someone will give the Knicks a second round pick for him once Pablo and Felton are right.

As I said in another thread, I think Murry needs to get used to the speed of the NBA game. Hasn't faced many defenses like the Spurs have. The way Beno coughed up the ball twice, pretty much dribbling right into his defender both times, makes me believe that Murry is a better choice. Id be happy for a 2nd rounder for Beno but he needs to make a better case to other teams.

BUT...there is always a BUT...

If its a one night thing, then its over. I am not convinced getting Felton back is a good thing.
