jets patriots tomorrow, big game!
im curious to see how we play without Jamal though, i think we might actually play better.........this was the team we were supposed to have after the keith trade, sans penny and shandon and plus ariza. Allans finally gonna show us if he can play some minutes tomorrow. im hoping tim can get more touches since he has been playing great recently.

does marbury ALWAYS get outplayed by brevin knight? Marbury having his worst game of the year
gerald wallace 9 boards in the first half. Brezec hasnt even missed a shot.

I think i have seen enough..Lenny sukks as a coach and the knicks have no defensive intensity...
And,I am starting to lose my love of sweetney..The knicks have hyped him enough,time to trade him..Dont know if Chicago would do it,but i would trade Sweetney for Chandler in a heartbeat...

I'm not ready to say I've given up on Sweets but he sure is playing short and pudgy.
Lenny doesn't seems to inspire intensity, but what about the players, aren't they supposed to have something to prove? How about Marbury? Isn't he a bit laconic for a floor leader? Eh, it's an old story for the Knicks, where's the leadership gonna come from?

TT is the key to this team..We definitely need this guy to step up..It really appears that the tragedys really affected him..It was not possible that he got that bad this quickly..
Oak,lenny has to go..This team needs an intense defensive minded coach,not the winninest and losing coach ever...
I am not ready to give up on Sweeteney..i am ready to TRADE him....He is not the player he was last year,and if hes not going to start,trade him before his defficencies become apparent.Chandler is a free agent this next year as well as Curry.I doubt they are going to pay both guys..We need a weak side shot blocker..
And yes.where is the intensity??

tim cant step up unless Lenny runs the plays for him. he only shoots 9 times a game, compared to van horn shooting 15 times a game this year.
last year tim scored 15.8 on 12 shots with us. he deserves 3 more so we can have that legit second scorer. i think tim is a better option then jamal cause tim at least has a post game.

Penny I agree on TT, but lets be realistic, he got a lot of touches early in the season and they just had no chance of going in, his shot was so off. He worked himself out of the offense. He needs to work himself back in. He's looking a lot better but it's gonna take a sustained effort to win back the trust.
That said, if we can get back the 18.2/5.6 (in games with over 12 mins played) TT of last year I'd agree that we'd be better off going to him before Jamal.
IF TT and Houston can play well Jamal wont be missed. And hopefully when he comes back he wont be the first option again. I'd prefer a first option by committee and Houston as go-to in the clutch.

TT is a very strange guy..he is perfectly happy to defer to others and be a member of the supporting cast...
The guy doesnt shhot enough..And we had this argument last year..All the TT haters bashed him,yet the guy has proven to be at least as good a shooter as KVH in the past.What is so annoying is that he KVH gives you 101% and you never know how much TT is going to give you...
Look ath the guy..He is 6'10" ,250 with a great handle and decent stroke...Hes the key to this team..scarrrry thought

Man, the Knick play at SG tonight was reprensible. Someone should tell Houston that he's supposed to take 7 more shots than he did, and brick 5 of them. They should also tell him to dish one fewer assist. At least he filled Crawford's shoes with 2 steals and a block. How will we ever get by without Jamal?
Well, at least we know the Knicks are good enough to beat the worst road team in the league (since Baron Davis is back for 1-14 New Orleans). Maybe we'll even split the season series at this rate.

Huh? Tim Thomas is averaging like 7 first quarter shots per game. He is taking more shots per minute than Van Horn, so enough with the not enough touches *****ing. Thomas gets taken out of games because he is useless when the shot isn't going in. He has a 1/2 A/T ratio. He can't create for others, and he can't create for himself. He gets outrebounded by players smaller than he is. He's 6'10 and averaging 3.3 rebounds in 25 minutes. Can we trade this guy for Brian Scalabrine?
Speaking of Scalabrine, his season high is 21 points. Today was Tim Thomas' season high, 20 points. That's right, it took him 27 games to score 20 points in one game.
But oh yeah, he lost a family member. As if no other NBA player ever loses a family member during the season. It's funny, since Thomas was talking so much smack during the off season, acting like a tough guy, challenging "Fugazy" Kenyon Martin to a street fight or some nonsense. Yeah, what a tough guy.
Didn't Paul O'Neill win a World Series the day his dad died? How about Barry Bonds not missing a beat when his father died? Bernie Williams and Mariano Rivera also lost family fairly recently. The players who have heart play through those emotional hardships. Of course you're going to suck when you don't have heart. Jordan dedicated championship #4 to his father. Jordan broke down in tears AFTER winning the championship, not when he was on the court with the ball in his hands. For a player who alleges how tough he is, I find it hard to find sympathy for him when he shows mental weakness.
How would you feel if Tyson lost and blamed it on someone he knew dying the night before? This is from a guy who threatens to eat children, mind you. Now, how would you feel if Tyson won and dedicated his performance to whoever died?
When someone close to you dies, you typically get a week off from work to pull yourself together. Thomas has had a lot more than a week.
