All NY bias aside, is Jennings better than Jeremy Lin? I'm trying to be so objective with my Nets fan breh and he thinks I'm just being a hater. I think Jennings is a better olayer than Jeremy Lin.

I wouldn't be surprised to see of somehow Early or Randle end up on our d-league team.


I think all those guys but Amundson will be. Phil is ahead of the curve treating the D-league team as a developmental unit and he's been stocking decent early to mid-20's players for a while. New CBA is gonna include two way contracts and I wish we could use ones on Randle and Plumlee right now. Plumlee showed he can do the Amundson thing but with more size and athleticism; but we have 4 guys I'd rather see get minutes at C right now (KP included), so minutes in the Dleague would help. Randle...I think he should be on our roster now over Plumlee for the aforementioned reasons. Injury be damned.

Lin's become a decent defender whereas Jennings has never shown even that much. So I give Lin an edge, but right before the injury with the Pistons, Jennings was showing some serious value. It didn't last long enough to hang much on it but if he gets there again this season, he could start making a real case.

Interesting observation I saw at Realgm. This team had zero picks in the draft (from prior GM's transgressions mind yall) but will start the season with Willy, Kuz, Ndour, Baker and Plumlee all as rookies...not huge upside from the bunch (I'm high on Willy though), but that's still an interesting collection especially considering Randle is a few weeks away from potentially jumping into the picture depending on the Knicks' plans. Could just be that we had limited funds and don't have depth, but cats like Baker and Plumlee have at least shown some promise at a time when there are still some okay vets available and potentially more to be released by other teams.

It is title time this team is deep they got a legit backup center in Wily, Melo or Porizngis should be on the floor at all times and if D Rose is healthy he destroys all the top guards in the league check the history and Melo destroys Durant and Lebron check the numbers easily it is an easy dub Rose is the wild card Rose stays healthy shyt will be an easy 55 to 57 wins this season and we will destroy cleveland in the playoffs and then destroy Warriors, i have never been so excited about a knicks squad like this team

I think they did a hell of a job in filling out the bench with those players, watching them in the Pre-season has me feeling even better, especially like you said the limited resources they were working with

I think our bench is going to be catch a lot of teams off-guard in the beginning of the season.
I can't wait to see what line-up combinations Coach runs with at every position outside of PG.

I think the bench will as well but it definitely depends on if they can make their shots cause we had a pretty good bench last season too aside from the point position and they started well and then disappeared. Also I'm hoping Hornacek will be able to get more from the bench than Fisher and Rambis was able to.
