Meh, probably not. Woods is a bust and so far the Knicks haven't had real good luck with underachievers...*cough*Tim Thomas*cough*

So.. who's Ariza going to dunk on tonight?

and predictions on tonight's starting line-up?

Here's mine:
C Jerome James (cause the games in Seattle)
PF Antonio Davis (LB loves him)
SF Quentin Richardson
SG Stephon Marbury
PG Jamal Crawford(gets the start cause it's in his hometown)

I know it's Nate Robinson's hometown too, but I don't know if he's risk going small to play two hometown guys.

Ariza dunks on Nick Collison!!

Lol @ Lary Brown and his starting lines up.
He was going to start Crawford and Robinson and make Marbury come off the bench. However he saw Marbury had a consective starting streak so he ended up starting marbury and crawford is off the bench. He starts people based on there home towns apparently. Jerome James is starting now.

Yup, that's what he's been doing.

And he sticks with the veterans in the starting line-up, even though Frye ends up playing pretty much all of the game except the first couple minutes. Unless he gets in foul trouble.

Butler should be starting over Curry and James and getting the minutes, but LB seems to play those two guys only based on name value, not who's best for the team.

Doesn't Curry, James and Butler (and maybe even Davis) have the same type of game, fat slow centers?

I read in last Thursday's Daily News that Isiah covets Atlanta's Al Harrington, who'll be one of the top free agents next summer. The Knicks only chance to get Harrington would be to trade for him before the Feb. deadline, but the Hawks want Frye in return. I KNOW Zeke's not making that deal.

Larry Brown is a Knucklehead. His Rookie Center has been playing out of his mind; His Reward :?: Benched him for all but 17 minutes in favour of a very over the hill Antonio Davis. At least Curry came back with a Bang and actually outrebounded Nate Robinson :lol:

I don't get those rotations. And what about that ridiculous coment about Jackie Butler being their best center? (N)

Hey man, Brown's always done this with his lineups. Not surprising to me, but it must drive his players nuts.

Curry had one good game.

Butler's been the most consistent of their C's. (Note: Frye's a PF)

I hated LB's rotation last night. Ariza and Frye hardly played.

How can Brown not play his best shooter(Frye)?

Especially in the closing minutes of the game when the Knicks were struggling to score.

Sometimes I think we'd be better off with Coach Mike D'Antoni as our coach instead of Coach Larry Brown. I'm waiting for LB to proove me wrong.

Well the knicks season is going to be determined within the next month and half
17 out of the next 25 games will be at home. Great time for this since the knicks will be able to see what they need when feburary trade deadline comes.

Knicks played hard and great last night. Frye had a poor shooting night, but I'm glad he, Ariza and Nate got the starts.

Hmm, I really don't know what to think of giving up Ariza for Artest. :?
He's probably going to pull off some weirds moves with his new team too, so..

Channing Frye is on fire . 6/6 first quarter so far . Looks like hes on pace for a career game . Q is relying on the perimiter shot but he just drove it in and dunked it . Spin move around Redd , nice move . Anyways , Frye is showing Bogut that he shouldv'e been the first overall pick lol.
