Agree. It was nice they finally got one.

U have to be kidding?

I tend to agree, unless you are talking about a young team made up of your future starters, where their growing pains will help your franchise in the future.

Unfortunately, we had a lot of guys playing who are probably not going to be on the team after this year.

Watching Galloway, Harden, and Larkin develop is fun, but I would rater see all our young guys getting serious minutes- Wear, Acy, Early need to be observed to see if they have a future on the team.

Calderon doing well might help his trade value, but that is it. Felt good for Thomas and Amundson, but neither will probably be around after this year.

Play everyone 24 yrs old and younger 25 MPG and audition some D leagers.

Liked Thomas' energy, but shouldn't we see if the Greek can play in this league?

Things have to be looked at in context of rebuilding over the next 5 years- and as you say, a few wins now are meaningless.

We have bigger goals in mind Son

Might have kept Amundson because he moves the ball around and can block shots and mix it up under the basket, but Thomas seems like somebody you could easily replace with a DL player- including our own Greek Freak.

He also competes for time with Early, who I would like to see on the court. If the Knicks are not going to play Cleanthony, I would like to see him getting 35+MPG with the Westchester team, like Galloway got. Unless he is hurt, the guy needs to play some serious minutes in game conditions.

lol agree

Come on, now... the guy is not that bad.

He will do much better on a team that moves the ball around and gets him open looks.

Weak rebounder, not a bad passer, and he has a decent midrange shot.

I also think that Phil and Fisher like his game within their system.
