N8 is Gr8, No-D'Antoni is Not
lmao at this thread. Man, Dwight Howard is as immature as Nate. Maybe even more immature, yet they win. Stop blaming Nate. The Knicks are playing better basketball as A TEAM. Not because Nate is not playing. Yeah, even I hope Nate becomes more serious with his game, but the losing wasn't all his fault. Dantoni is the dumbass that doesn't know how to utilize Nate.
well said. Not sure I agree with Dwight remark, N8 is way more immature!
btw, NOT using N8 vs Orlando was height of ignorance for No-D'Antoni, a spiteful benching tactic we've seen him use to end Starbury's career, but that's another 1001 Metro threads away.
What made the benching all the more conspicuous is that three days earlier Robinson scored 22 fourth-quarter points against the Magic at the Garden. Orlando had no answer for Robinson...until No-D'Antoni gave the Magic one." - NY Daily News
How do you bench a player who exploded for 22 points in 4th Q in previous game? Lame!
I blame 2nd Orlando loss on spiteful Mr. Pringles.
I agree with many anti-N8 remarks (tho some folks are way harsh with clown/monkey references) on KO site, and hope N8 gets serious-fied by benching, the strongest way Mr. P knows how to send message to N8 to stop f*cking around.
"We want to win," No-D'Antoni said after the Knicks fell to 4-15 after beating the Suns the previous night. "And if he's conducive to winning then he'll obviously be back in the lineup. If not he's not."
However, It's Mr. P's No-Defense after SSOL quick shots that destroyed Knicks from Day 1.
Thanks to AL HARRINGTON and WIL CHANDLER driving to the hoop, LARRY HUGHES becoming all-that-he-can-be ala Washington days, Gallo getting open and hitting key hoops, and Pu-hon NOT being league-worst MPG starting PG since 2nd half of last season, that have REALLY contributed to Knick wins, NOT N8 BEING ON BENCH!
However, I agree with No-D'Antoni when he said it's more about TONY DOUGLAS, rather than benching being about N8. I love Tony, no homo bro, the kid's got game.
If this spite-benching helps N8 finally "get it" and get it together, he'll become a MUCH better player, if not one of the best 6th men in the league, just what Knicks need to help F.A. Superstar 2010 take Knicks to next level! That is what I believe! C'mon N8! Get it together! C'mon Mr. Pringles! Make it happen! Play N8!
NO BRICKS!
GO KNICKS!
Go, Donnie Go Go GO!
Donnie Workin' It To 2010!!
