Bullshit, I never hated on Jeffries, but I think we're better off without Stoudemire and Anthony.
If you didn't enjoy the basketball we played in the games without them then you probably need to re evaluate your life.
We're 1.000 without them, at worst .0666 (pretending we lose to the Lakers tonight), otherwise we'll stay 1.000 without them and the basketball we've played was great to watch and successful.
In the long run we're probably not better without them, but definitely not worse!
What is their combined record since Melo joined us? 0.444? I say the current team could achieve that without them.
dude just stop it
we arente even close to being better off with out melo and amare
after tonights game you will see why
we are better off with a POINT GUARD
thats about it
we havent really had a chance to see melo and amare with a real poing guard this year.
now
if we replace melo and amare with two other players at their respective positioins that are more role oriented and can knock down threes and rebound and defend
not naming who , just saying if we can replace them
then yes we are better
but we cannot live with billy walker going 2-10 chucking 8 three pointers
and jefferies missing layups all game against top competition
stop drinking the kool-aid because we beat a few scrubs and lin snuck up on people
like a rookie pitcher, the more time coaches real coaches with real players have to break down lins game
the less effective he will be
lin's production is evidence that he has true NBA talent, so i am not saying he will go back to garbage minutes and will have a landslide in decrease of statistics, but it will come a time where he needs the likes of melo and amare to finish those amazing passes and pick and rolls, because tyson chandler wont be able to hold the torch for that long.
but believe me, I too can understand why some one would think we are better with out stat and melo
but i have to dig deep and be honest with myself
both players have been winning talents in this league before they came to the knicks.
and most experts since day one have said it wont work with out a point guard
so this doesnt come down to whether we are better off with or with out melo and amare
it comes down to one question
Are the KNICKS BETTER WITH JEREMY LIN
?????
thats the only question we should be asking.
