I miss him. I could have been in the minority but I never wanted him to go.

Always liked him but just understood he wasn't a key piece so we moved on.

The dude is an awesome third guard. The problem was that he was asked to do too much here. Yeah, he had questionable decision making. But you also tell that he cared about being a Knick.

between frye lee and nate, that was a really good group of "yoots" on the knicks.
the guy has more heart in his pinkie than many nba players. i really wish we could bring him back.
also if i am remembering correctly, he hasn't dealt with any major injuries. even though he's 5'8-5'9, i get the impression he's built like a rock for that height.

always a huge Nate fan. Not the sharpest between the ears but he could play. Cartman, remember he played CB in college and also was a gunner on special teams. Dude's a sick athlete

yes forgot about his college days. guy is still "young". we could use him. btw, the only PG on the planet to record a block against Shaq and Yao Ming both.

I think larkin is just as good, with a higher IQ, and can run a PnR like clock work

And the athleticism is now breaking down. We have a headcase, we don't need another one.

Cartman, did you miss this?:

I never went to med school, but a torn ACL I thought, qualifies as a pretty serious injury. Even for a rock.

Nate was an athletic freak and fun to watch. His last great run with bulls was great. They were deprived of offense and he would be "let off the leash" and go nuts!

Great gig. He should be a Globetrotter!!!

Always like his spirit but he was like the little crack head who just was not on the same page as his coach's or other members.

IN a diciplined system game, he is not the guy.

true. if there's anyone that can bounce back from that, i'd trust it to be him though.
