Re: I have a feeling

while i agree the interior defense is not good there is something to remember ...it was just as bad last year and it wasn't the reason the team couldn't make the playoffs .

defensively i would rather have randolph than frye just because he boards well , Frye wasn't a good man defender or a good help guy although he was/is a better help defender than randolph though probably not any better defending his man.

i see the same issues basically the team had last year and pretty much the same strengths , but i think the team will be better defensively anyway if only marginally because the perimeter defense should be better because craw has some more meat on him , balkman's role will be expanded as will mardy's and craw's backup will actually play defense and spell him providing a defensive boost and JC will have to play better defense or he'll sit more.

i dont put much stock in a 2-2 preseason different teams try to get different things out of the exibition games , the knicks are trying new things and trying to gell with randolph and curry on the court at the same time.
