I've always liked this franchise. It's really sad what it's become. Those Ewing years were good for the league.

I sort of agree, especially with Lee (he led the league in Berri's Wins Produced Per 48 which is damn impressive), but people often fail to realize that Lee and Balkman wouldn't be as efficient if they played bigger minutes.

i seem to recall a really good thread about iverson, because people love to hate him (about how overrated he is) but due to insane mins or whatnot he actually doesnt really do that much worse with all the extra mins or whatnot. It was pretty impressive when I read it, wonder if that rings a bell to anyone.

I recall that too, and I know I was firmly in the pro-AI camp. I don't want to hijack, but I've been reconsidering my position due to the writings of Dave Berri. I need to read up more about his stats, but I'm becoming convinced that his Wins Produced stat is more valuable than Hollinger's PER.

I predict Busto.

This thread is at least two years premature...

busto FTW

This team needs to get blown up. I think the Knicks will starts winning once Isiah freaking leaves. Zeebo and Curry are not the answer, they don't play Defense. These guys are big, but they lack the heart of the glory days of Ewing, Oakley, X-Man, etc.

Hopefully they get some veteran leadership in Allan Houston.

So Rubeskies, still feeling confident after the Celtics beat the Knicks last night by 50 points?

Zach Belden · #9 10-18-2007, 11:43 AM

anyone have a link to that AI thread? would love to read it.

also, I think the knicks do have a shot this year. huge depth in the front court and maybe they can limp along with that backcourt

Green Kool Aid · #10 10-18-2007, 11:47 AM

depth in the frontcourt?

the knicks are going to get KILLED in transition with curry and randolph taking ~12 seconds to wobble end to end.

KG was getting out for easy assists and buckets last night, and same thing will happen against every team with a decently mobile big man.

lee needs to start and play 35 minutes plus. he was (like pretty much always) the best player for the knicks last night.

cliff notes: isiah is a racist.
