After watching the Spurs game last night, seeing alot of last season lineup on the court (Curry, Lee, Malik, Bum Q.Rich, Bum Jefferies, Crawford, Marbury, and Nate), it was obvious why Isiah Thomas drafted 6.8 Wilson Chandler and 6.8 Demitris Nichols, and picked up 6.11 Randolph Morris.
These three Rookies along with Balkman, Collins, Nate, Lee, Crawford, Marbury, and Curry, should've been the Knicks 10-Man Rotation from the Start of the 2007-8 season.

The Best Player the Knicks received in the Portland Trade in June was 6.8 SF/SG Demitris Nichols.
It would have been easier to get SF/SG-Nichols peremeter defense & offense to co-exist with last season players than the 3 years of non production from Q.Richardson, and the 2 years of non production from Jefferies, or trying to get Zach & Jones to co-exist with Marbury & Curry.

With the Peremeter shooting the Knicks could have got from Nate, Nichols, Chandler, inconsistent Marbury, and Dum Decision Making Crawford, in each game this season I doubt if the Knicks would've got blown out of 3 or 4 games this season.
Nate pressuring the ball comming up the floor each time and the defensive prowness of "Chandler & Nichols" would've made up for the "NO-Defense Marbury & Crawford"...

P.S. Chandler should replace Jefferies, Nichols should've replaced Q.Richardson, and Morris defensive rebounding should've replaced Frye.
