I recall having some bum players and bigmen on alot of teams I played for, but with the right coach and PG running the show these bum bigmen played an important role in helping us win in the playoffs, against teams I did'nt expect to win.
So for the Knicks to have Darko, Curry, and Hill, and never utilize any of their talents on offense or for defense within a unit with the team, from day one of training camp to the 37th game of the season, shows me the Knicks have a problem in their coaching-staff on how to utilize bigmen.
A center and a PF are supposed to get 10 rebounds at least once out of every 4 games. If players Harrington, Jefferies, Chandler, Gallo, and Bender can not do this in this league, then they are not a center or a PF in the NBA.
They are SF.....
David Lee came into the league as a strong rebounder, athletic hustler, and a screen setter for his teammates to score or rebound. These are the things he showed in his first NBA summer league tournament, and the same things Jordan Hill showed in his first NBA summer league tournament.
