Not suprisingly TT is right at the bottom. TT is projected to score 13.5 Pts per 48 minutes. The guy he is guarding is projected to score 27.1 Pts per 48 minutes. Disgraceful.

On the flip side, Ariza is projected to score 18.4 pts per 48 minutes whereas the guy he is guarding only 8.6! Suffice it to say he has completely and utterly outplayed TT in the two games so far.

A negative is every Knick except JYD has been a minus when they have been on the court. It figures that Lenny wouldn't play him! Sweetney also has a very big minus next to his name because has been killed on the defensive end. That ought to suggest against starting him.

According to the stats, the best 5 man unit has been Marbury-Crawford-Ariza-K.Thomas-Mohammed.

Crap. Well, at least it proves Nazr is our best option at center...BY FAR.

Ive been reading about lineup changes here and I like JYD at center as well if Nazr doesnt pick things up.Couldnt hurt to try at this point.He doesnt need to be a scorer,just has to keep the big man he is up against from scoring too much as well.

I think Junk yard Dog is about 6'8. I am fine with Nazr at Center until they trade for a real center.

Wrong!He is much taller than that,he is 6'9 Like I said,give Nazr a shot but if he doesnt improve give JYD a chance.I like the idea of starting the game with a defensive minded frontcourt.BTW how is Sweetney's D so far?

Oh my bad. it said 6'8 when I looked under Junk yard dog. Should've remembered to look under Jerome Williams.

BUMP. After the Philly game, the best 5-man unit is Marbury-Crawford-Ariza-K.Thomas-Mohammed. The TT-Ariza battle only continues to be a shocker. Ariza, after yesterday's strong performance continues to be statistically dominant in every category, including scoring. On defense, the guy he is guarding is only projected to get 7.6 Pts every 48 minutes. That is outstanding!

When Nazr can string a bunch of good games together I will agree with you.
