Guard-less Knicks for next 5 games

Rotation player
The Knicks are suddenly without Jamal Crawford (traded), Cuttino Mobley (heart) and Nate Robinson (groin), leaving Chris Duhon and Anthony Roberson as their only guards.

It would make sense for the Knicks to suit up Stephon Marbury, but we're not holding our breath.

More Importantly....I don't wanna sumbit the next 3 games, if Mobley and Nate are out we need some guards to win these games....

Duhon, and q-rich will play alot but Roberson isn't ready for NBA action...he is just a bench guy that can add alil shooting here or there ....

look at our next 5 games:

Next season, keep waiting
Looks like we will be lucky to win 2 of the next 5 games. It's going to be tough, but we've got tough young players. I'm still putting alot of faith in Wilson. Plus Harrington should be playing for the majority of those games. We just may have a fighting chance.
 
Your forgetting that half of our foward's are only playing SF/PF because we have no Center! Chandler and Q could both play G/SF because we'd still have Tim Thomas and Al Harrington (aka our new ballhog/chucker) to play SF/PF, both have 3pt range and are soft anyway. That leaves Lee at Center and Duhon and Roberson to play the point..... at least that's how I see it?


PG - Duhon/Roberson
SG - Chandler/Q (or vice versa)/Roberson
SF - T.Thomas/Al Harrinton/Q/Chandler (all interchangable)
PF - Al Harrinton/T.Thomas (or vice versa)/Chandler
C - Lee/ and anyone that can give D.Lee some rest?

hopefully jefferies comes back .,

and wish our draft pick could contribute, but thats another story...

and there goes Mikey D's theory of only playing 8 players...

I bet he plays 10 players the rest of the year....

Jeffries will be a welcome addition for our frontcourt, but I've said it before and I'll say it again , you can count us in for the lottery again this year :(

Am I the only Knick fan that thinks Jefferies is trash? I can't stand him and think his game is weaksauce. What am I missing?

nice find richtree.....thats a tough stretch coming up our only winnable game looks to be Golden State, and it makes lots of sense to play Marb's all differences aside and play him we need him dont care if you agree or disagree with Marbs..

yeah, I think Zach was playing well, and comfortable in our system....

hes gonna be tuff to replace the scoring / boards/ consistency...

harrington and thomas will have to combine to try to do this....


oh well, had to ship out the contract....

lets get to fighting ....

Not soon enough lol. But I think we'll break the Celtics record of most difference in wins from one year to the next, if everything goes as planned. Just gotta get through these 2 years.

No I'm sure your not the only one :smokin:

The only thing your missing about Jeffries is that coach D loves him and thinks he'll be a huge contributer for the team........ or maby that's code talk for drive up his value and trade him? :crossfingers:

^ yea i don't think jefferies is that good at all


looking to wilson to carry the team isn't going to happen. this whole season i'm guessing is going to be him finding his rhythm and having usually more okay statistical games then good. Looking to him as some sort of top scorer i don't think is very practical. He'll have a mid 20 pt game every once in a while; but im not expecting a tremendous amount from him anytime soon...i do think he'll be a star in the future though....especially now with no guards i think we need to look to harrington to step up the scoring, more so then say wilson cause wilson is going to throw the same amount of shots up each game in order to grow, and i don't expect a ton of them to fall...

bottom like...knicks are screwed for the next 2 years
and after that it's all a chance of getting lebron/wade/bosh?
i mean i love the knicks always did but... this bad luck is just killing us.
and don't forget the stupid marbury war(which i'm neutral to)
and with the jeffries situation
i don't like him but we need all the help we can get.
