Lenny needs to go but he wont
i supported lenny when he was hired. I actually prefered him over fratello( i was a minority there). i supported lenny throughout the season leading to this season. but now i have had enough. Watching todays game against the celtics down by 4 with about 27 secs left, celtics with the ball, you would think foul right? well thats what marbury thaught. Marbury kept looking at the knicks bench to see a sign from lenny to foul.....no sign, the clock dwindled to about 15 untill there was actually any movment. by that time its too late and lenny has shown he does not fit the knick formula.
who's out there? no one which is why he will stay knick coach. So, another year of mediocracy for us

he was day dreaming, put him in a retirement home already. Lenny is an old hag. he cant get mad. he wouldnt get mad if someone killed his kids in front of his face. he would just do his little giggle thing in the interview
TT shows up 2 games straight at least. and nazr had 20 and 18. .........man i miss van horn...........
Houston looks hurt again

This team needs new direction. This team is too good to be playing the way they do. Offensively they're fine...really they are. It's that they don't know how to play defense or to play D consistently. There just too many lapses on the defensive end that's mind boggling. Just little things, like boxing out, not getting beat down the court on missed shots, cutting off the lane after the dribbler beats the perimeter defender. If the Knicks just paid a modicrum more attention to those things listed above, they would be so much better. It's not a talent issue, it's an effort issue, or lack of effort issue.

I know that Lenny is a ****ing moron, he was the coach for the Raptors for like three crappy seasons. He never has a play and seems to laid back sometimes.
On the other Hand this is not really Lenny's fault, i feel that Lenny probably thought that MArbury has played enough games to know what to do in this situation and they did not need his signal to fould someone. This is a pretty obvious play and Marbury should know what to do without Lenny telling him.

How the hell is it Lenny's fault? Marbury is an NBA Point Guard. A point guard is supposed to be like a second coach on the floor. Marbury should have known to foul. What the **** is he, a robot? He needs to look over to the coach, as if the coach is Marbury's personal caluclator? The shot clock is off. You're losing. That means foul. What a pathetic basketball IQ. At least Marbury is showing why Kidd turned the Suns and Nets into winners, while Marbury turned both into losers.

Allan Houston FG%: .473
Allan Houston 3pt%: .500
Jamal Crawford FG%: .393
Jamal Crawford 3pt%: .347
Tim Thomas FG%: .389
Tim Thomas 3pt%: .345
Allan Houston is averaging 9.9 ppg and 1.7 assists in 19 minutes. Tim Thomas is averaging 9.4 ppg and 0.9 assists in 25 minutes.
What the hell are you on? Yeah, Houston is totally "not" the same player he was before.

9 mins, and it should be obvious. Playing Sweetney next to Freeway Mohammed would be a defensive disaster. It should also be fairly obvious that Jerome Williams has been ahead of Mike Sweetney in the rotation for the entire month of December.
Baker also played 5 minutes, my guess is because he wanted retribution against his former team. Otherwise, Sweetney probably would have gotten 14. They could also be trying to show off Baker for a trade, because he's done nothing all year and his agent was making noise a week ago.

Truth..
You and I have been saying this all along. H2O will NEVER be what he was except in spurts. We need a sweet stroking sf that plays d and has a willingness to hit the boards..someone that plays hard. TT shows spots...as he always has....but just is not consistent enough in any area except shooting. Look for a huge trade this summer for a real 5. If Nazr puts up good #s for the rest of the season, look for a combo of him and TT and/or Penny to bring a top center or some other TOP 3 or 4. There is a lot of chips to use this summer. I personally crave the ungettable T. Chandler and, yes, I still want Wally. Marbury, Crawford, Wally, Sweets, and Chandler would be nice, eh?

Alfa,If i had to fault Zeke,and who knows the reality,it appears he is very reluctant to give up KT,and I can not understand why.Dont get me wrong,KT is solid.But hes not getting any younger,nor any better....
When the Bulls were realing,Chandler may have been available.He still is not starting which says alot.We desparately need a week side defensive player like Camby.Where i am not sure you are right is who in the world can we get at the 5???..The problem right now is our guards do not stop the penetration and Naz is not a shot blocker...
Lets keep in mind that Zeke hjas turned around a sinking ship.last year we were 11-18 with an 88 million dollar payroll.Our payroll is bloated,but we have close to 60 million coming off the books in the next two years..
As for H20,hes 34 and has chronic knee problems..Its degenerative....Hopefully he can be our zone buster,but anything more is asking way too much..

Houston may not have the quickness but he is still a pretty deadly shooter. Shooting ability is about the last thing that a player loses as a skill. Just look at Reggie Miller he can still drop shots and so can Allan Houston. Allan was never a good defender or rebounder, but he has one of the nicest looking Jump Shots in the league and every team needs a good shooter.

Totally agree with you KG..But if anyone thinks a 34 y.0 shooting guard with degenerative cartlige is going to play 35 minutes per,its wishful thinking at best....
All i ever said is he will probably never be the player he was...And it would be tuff for his D to get any worse....
Of course,you have to take anything the THINman says with a grain of salt

Look OLDMan, I don't want to report your baiting to a moderator. Hypocrisy will only take you so far (though you have been riding that wave for quite a while it would seem).

As if there were any mods to cry to.
I think we should nominate Penny Hardaway to moderate this forum and shake things up a bit. Whoever Fordy is he either died or he's asleep at the wheel. I fear this forum is verging on irrelevance.
