We decided not to guard Rondo and he killed us...

What point guard is going to be available when we pick?
Nolan Smith
Nolan Smith isn't a point guard, he's another combo guard.

I think we need to do both, draft and trade for one. Stat is starting to break down.
Amare's not starting to break down. He pulled a muscle in his back, he'll be fine by next season.
He's been icing his knees all season. I'm not saying he's headed for the glue factory just yet but we need someone who can contribute right away. Not worth the risk of waiting on a PG to develop, could take years.
He moves a lot better than Ewing did at the same age, and Ewing was still a great player well after 28.
Ewing had a totally different game. He had to change it when he developed his own knee problems. I don't see Stat doing the same thing.

I think we need 2 PGs. Just in cas the first one doesn't work out
Uh oh, Carter lighting it up, better pull him out of the game!
The most brilliant offensive mind in the game has his team putting on the worst offensive display for the season's most important game.
This team has heart
Where is the heart when on a close out game the other team is getting wide open layups. come on man show me the heart on this team.
3rd Qtr 4:50
NYK 60 BOS 74
Knicks stopped believing after not being able to pull out either of the first two games.
Celtics picked up speed, Knicks bent in the wind.
They're just toying with me

Yeah, Ewing liked to bang in the post which put more pressure on his knees. Amare's more of a jump shooter/slasher; if he cuts to the basket less and develops a turn-around jumper I don't see any reason he can't be close to this effective for another 6-7 years. Especially if Melo becomes more a a first option.
Looks like old man Carter drank his prune juice this morning.

It's not a heart issue, it's a talent issue.

He relied mostly on a turnaround jumper, outside jumpers and a roll to the foul line. He couldn't take it to the rim like he used to. He changed his game to protect his knees. I see a smaller window for Stat, hope I'm wrong of course.
Our coach has zero game recognition...We have been begging for AC fore two games now...
