My beloved Knicks are... well... terrible. Few of the players exhibit much heart, they don't mesh, and some other negative comment.
Let's review my opinion on what the future should hold for certain players:
Steve Francis - newly acquired. He has a similar game as Marbury, both are not conducive to winning. Get rid of.
Stephon Marbury - being a Knick for a few years now, I have some loyalty to Steph. Nevertheless, he hasn't helped us win in the past, hasn't now, and won't in the future. Get rid of.
Nate Robinson - the rookie guard has been a spark plug for the club. He has shown the energy and the will that other players have lacked. He makes a lot of mistakes, but those will diminish as his experience increases. Keep him.
Jamal Crawford - he's a tough one. Crawford is so inconsistent, but he has the potential to be great on occasions. He's actually the leader of the team when he's on fire, but rightfully relegated to the bench when he's not. He plays no defense, but may have the tools to be a good ball handling two guard if he ever learns. Keep him.
Quentin Richardson - I really wish we had Kurt Thomas, despite the injury, back. This guy played well in DePaul and last year for the Suns, but he simply sucks this year. It would be better for both if he left. Get rid of.
Jalen Rose - may help the team's unselfishness and also has the ability to score. Not much on the defensive end though. Keep him for now.
Channing Frye - has been the bright spot of the team, in this his rookie year. Keep him.
Malik Rose - shows heart, though undersized and has a huge contract. If he and Jalen but the initial of their first names on their jerseys, he can stay. Keep him for now.
Maurice Taylor - absolutely terrible. Get rid of.
Qyntel Woods - who cares? Get rid of.
David Lee - gives it his all, even if his ability isn't there yet. Keep him.
Jackie Butler - tries hard when he gets to play. However, I question his potential. Get rid of.
Jerome James - made my list for most favorite non-Knicks last season because he caught a flying chair thrown from the hand of Danny Fortson. His contract is too much and he hasn't done anything this year, but we can't get rid of him at all, so maybe he'll improve. Keep him for now.
Eddy Curry - could be a legitimate post player night in and night out in the future. He needs to stay healthy, learn to play defense and block and/or alter shots. Keep him.
I spent $40 to sit alone 10 rows from the top, behind the basket, and watch the Knicks lose by 21 against the Wizards. I want my money back Knicks.
