    I thought he was getting thrashed by defenders on his drives but being a rookie I don't expect the same type of calls.

    This isn't about Jeremy really. It is really inspiring what he has done. Anyone who doesn't marvel at this stretch is lying. It's unheard of to do what he did. I am definitely happy for him. I'm just tired of Clutchfans pumping him up so much, making a mockery of our own players, including Yao, and to a lesser extent the media turning him into Tebow part two. It doesn't help that he is driving the value of our draft pick down either.

    I agree with you on D'Antoni. The Knicks have easily the hardest schedule in the league in March and April. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

    It is just me or what.... I am just not seeing much talent drop off between 8-15 pick.... if you are clever and lucky you can get a good guy at 15.....and a very good guy at 8 but you can also get busts at 8 ..... but more undervalued players at 15.... because you get mostly players that are almost developed at 15 more than 6 or 8 ..... those are potential stars but recently more busts are coming out

    True. But if you are top 10 which the Knicks would likely be should they miss the playoffs, you might have a chance at someone like Perry Jones. Well, I guess he could be a bust....

    I just want Meyers Leonard lol. That guy looks legit.

    I do not mind getting only blue collar workers ....Chucks or Jeremies... and get
    major talent thru trades

    well you can say anything about the 09ers but I view it as a bad streak only

    STOP IT :confused:. Really, i think there should be a little basketball knowledge quiz that everyone must pass before being able to create an account. Some people are ridiculous. He's GOOD, nobody is denying that now im sure, but to say he'll be an all star next year, over eastern point guards that are better than him like rondo, dwill, brandon jennings, drose, kyrie irving is insane.

    he's good, and will most likely be an all star later in his career, but he's not a top 15 point guard

    What he has done so far is very difficult to accomplish..After watching the Lakers game, I am convinced..This guy is really talented..If he was borned in Spain or somewhere in Europe, he would've been one of the top prospects in the draft..His skill level was probably there from the beginning but nobody gives a **** because those scouting people thought asians can't play..
