Start season: Marbs, Craw, Q, Tiny Tim, Sweets

In all my reading during the season, the one with the Indiana GM mentioning playing Tim at the 4 (he's our tallest player)
Craw would start the season until a center emerges.

Break/trading deadline: Marbs, Q, Tiny Tim, MoT, Rose
Mo T prys the starting job away from Sweets who can't stay out of foul trouble. Rose loves guarding shaq.

Playoff starting five: Marbs, Q, Ariza, Rose, Frye

After Tim is traded Ariza blossoms averaging a double double to end the season. Rose and Shaq battle while Ariza helps slow down Wade, but knicks fall in 6 in the second round of the playoffs.

Frye wins rookie of the year.

Hey, a man can dream.
all kool aid all the time.

Wait a minute. Briggs posted a while back that the starting lineup would be Thomas, Sweetney, T,Thomas, Crawford and Marbury. Is there any need to doubt him?

Marbury, Richardson, Ariza, Frye, Chris Anderson.
6th Man: Jamal Crawford
Bench: Malik Rose, JYD, Sweetney, Tim Thomas

Coach: Larry Brown

-Frye and Anderson patrol the paint to help the Knicks porous perimeter D.
-Rose and JYD, undersized but with hearts, battle with the bigger players.
-Sweetney emerges into a solid off-the-bench banger downlow, and calls are made for Frye to move to C and Sweetney to start at 4.
-Crawford plays better in smaller amounts of time, making smarter decisions.
-Richardson re-finds his post game, and limits his three-pointers, averages 18 points, 7 rebounds.
-Ariza becomes a do-it-all, less-rounded Tayshaun Prince.

What makes you think Richardson can play small forward?

He has played SF before, and he isn't that undersized to play it. Still, I would rather draft Granger and have Crawford come off the bench.

how long did spree play small forward for us? Like the whole time he was here.

I expect Q either to start or play a lot of time at the 3.

He's as much a SF as he is SG. He's 6'6, 230lbs. He rebounds well and can play in the post, not to mention is one of the strongest swingmen in the league. I think IT has brought him in with the intention of starting him at SF and moving TT.

C Dan Gadzuric/Butler/ Blatche
PF M Rose/ Mo Taylor
SF Tim Thomas
SG Q Rich
PG S Marbury
6th man J Craw

No longer think Big Z is coming here; he doesn't fit the younger, athletic mold
We will NEVER win with Marbury as our cameo guy.

I forgot Sweetney in my lineup (he was at Dunkin Donuts), so it becomes:
C Gadzuric/Butler/Blatche(sleeper)
PF Sweetney/Malik/Mo Taylor
SF TGazy/Trevor
sg Q Rich/J Craw
Pg Marbury/ Nate at 30
We will lead the league in points allowed/matador D
We will NEVER win with Marbury as our cameo guy.
