    It seems like Chase's minutes have decreased drastically since the big trade. I don't understand why though, since he is still playing at a high level for a rookie.

    Thats what they want you to do any ways, is try and make you match up with them instead of playing how we used to play and forcing them to matchup with us.

    Thats why we play Yao against the Warriors and make them pay for playing small. We trying to match up with them by putting Luis at Center and playing Shane/Chase at PF.

    Also Hill has played well at Center, he's 6'10 that is center height (Dwight Howard who is also 6'10)

    Shut the hell up dude. Not only next year is a long time for now, Dork Elvis will get us some additional help in making us close to contenders or contenders.

    its the end of quarter, you sit him down just before so he gets an extended break. He's going to need it because without battier he'll play more in the 4th. And there's always that issue with his D.

    Lowry just makes things happen, even if he does do some stupid things sometimes, he always makes something good happen.

    The Knick's front court players are all face up players. I like my chances of hill better than Hayes, because his length will at least bother their shots.

    Even with the good mechanics that Hill has for his jumper, I am happy that he has not fallen in love with it. He is constantly trying to get to the basket to finish strongly or use that nice little right hook.

    One thing he does do well is not foul unnecessarily.

    Thats why i said you have to match up unless you have someone like Yao, meaning someone who's going to make them adjust, but we dont, so we cant and must match up, it's the way it works. If you dont match up and they have no reason to adjust they'll run you out of the gym.

    Howard would still be "matching up" with them since howard is a mobile center with length AND it would also make them adjust to you, that's a special case. It's not as simple as throwing out positions, you need to consider the abilities of that player and their weaknesses.

    Scola took a huge **** on the court tonight, way to disappear. Brooks not much better.

    Bench is the only reason this game is close.


    Tell you something Adelman?

    Is the Knicks a place players go to die? He wasn't that bad in Chicago.

    Wouldn't mind seeing a Lowry/AB/Kmart/Bud/Hill combo.

    Seriously, Kyle Lowry is everywhere... he was so good in the first half I was wondering why it was taking so long to get him back in when the Knicks were creating a bigger lead in the third.
