Before the ball goes up …

January

The starting lineup will be shuffled tonight against Philadelphia because Fred Jones is out with the flu.

Surprise. Surprise.

Mardy Collins is back in the starting lineup. We’ll see how that goes. Back in November when Stephon Marbury went home in a huff, Collins was thrown right into the mix.

And then he got parked on the end of the bench.

There’s no sense upsetting the rotation, but the Knicks need to know what Collins is capable of contributing. We know he’s a role player. The question remains, is Collins a 20-minute-a-night backup or a 20-minute-a-month body?

    Let’s hope he can at least give us 15 min. a night (I personally think he stinks)...if only because we are absolutely killing Jamal Crawford playing him 45 minutes a night..
