Don’t go by summer league. Rick Brunson and Lavor Postell were studs in summer league. Every year.

Of these guys, two were cut, two were mired on the bench or the inactive list, and only Nate has gotten consistent minutes and improved. So, yeah, my vote is that only 2 Knicks have improved. Him and David Lee. Renaldo is a better player than Jared Jeffries but has been stuck behind him in the rotation all year.

What does this prove? Isiah has a great eye for talent but no management skills.

What isiah should really do is FINE him for being unprepared, there is no discipline on this team. Eddy curry should have been fined for cming 2 camp over weight. Jerome james should have been suspended a tun of times. You think pat riley would let this slide? Make balkman stay hours after to study plays and gameplans with the assistant coachs and fine him if he does not comply.

First, he’s had three decent games in a row. This will only increase his trade value in the offseason. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that he had those games with Zach out of the lineup. Now that Zack is back I don’t see Curry returning to that level, even if his knee is 100% fine. So this is his high-water point, if the right opportunity to trade him in the offseason arises.

Second, as bad as he’s been playing before this recent stretch it can be argued that he gives them a better chance to win. And the Knicks need to be in lottery-pick mode. Right now they’re in the top five. I don’t want them to drop out of that.

So, shut down Curry and wait till next year. And, of course, FIRE ISAIH!!!

Lee, Nate, Crawford, all improved in my eyes this season. Lee would not have been on the list a month or two ago, but lately, yup.

And I can’t believe Mardy and ‘Naldo are not on that list. A year ago I was so excited about those two

As far as Balkman goes that is just another guy Isiah has mismanaged this season. His coaching and minutes have little continuity so how can guys like Balk stay game ready mentally?

Isiah needs to go…All he is a chicago 2 bit hustler. Says what people want to hear and gets what he wants without any results or accountability.
But I guess we got to give him that – he does know how to survive!

All we seem to be getting from you guys these days is the same old ‘the Knicks sure stink…’ story. We get that. As I asked in a previous post to you, what is the mindset of NYK management in regards to the front office? Will Isiah be back next season? As president? Coach? Both? Has ownership indicated that they will be speaking to the press concerning this situation after the season? Has Isiah been given the ‘vote of confidence’?

I think that if they were/are planning to get rid of Isiah, should they not be putting feelers out now? Has any of that activity been going on?

If I’m management, Isiah would be gone by now, if he was going to go. With the lottery pick that they are going to get, why let a lame duck GM/coach plan such an important draft? This is an indicator to me that Isiah may be here next season.
