Re: Passing the time...
Great Point!
Outstanding Point!
"What is the story on Randolph Morris?"
The same could be said about the other "Minimum Wage players" on the Knicks like Balkman, Collins, Chandler, and we just started giving Nate Robinson some playingtime after the 24th game this season.
I give the Knicks Head Coach credit for sticking to a plan and being very patient, consistent, and determine to make it work.
However, the plan of getting Curry, Zach, and Q.Richardson to co-exist together has failed each of the first 15 games of the season. That is the limit for any NBA Coach (anything after that is "SAVE-FACE coaching).
Somehow the Knicks Head Coach let the players shout-out the problem inwhich they singled out PG-Marbury (for one reason or another).
Marbury could have strong affect on the offensive performance of Curry, Zach, and Q.Rich, but Marbury can not be the blame for Curry, Zach, and Q.Richardson consistent Poor Denfense that led to each and every Knick "BLOWOUT" this season.
What is the story on 6.11 Randolph Morris.
After the 15th game of the Knicks 2007-8 season the answer was to put 6.11Randolph Morris into the rotation of the C/PF Bigmen Lee, Zach, and Curry.
The answer at the SF position was to add Malik Rose, Balkman, and Chandler, not Jared Jefferies & Fred Jones the Knicks needed MUSCLE, POWER, and SPEED at the SF position to help Curry or Zach offensive game.
The answer in the Backcourt Guards were right there infront of our eyes it was the Tandem of "Nate & Collins" combination!
You take BOTH Marbury & Crawford out of the game together (this would make them learn to play together) and replace them with the Defensive presense of Nate pressuring the ball and Collins guarding the passing lane. These two backup (Combo) guards play like NBA Guards without the presense of Marbury or Crawford on the court with them.
The Big answer to the Knicks WINNING Problem after their first 15 games were to reduce not increase the playingtime of Marbury, Crawford, Q.Richardson, Zach, and Curry.
The Knicks Head Coach was supposed to give these Minumum Wage Players playingtime "Lee, Nate, Balkman, Collins, Morris, and Chandler" to make a NAME for themselves in the NBA, they are young energetic hustling players on both sides of the court.
