Oh stop...Ur riding Brewer's jock and have no love for Felton...
wtf?
It's true..U rave about Brewer..Felton does work too...
I do. I love Brewer and don't love Felton. Whats wrong with that?
I also stated (above) that he (Felton) has impressed me.
Not sure what your point is. I don't have to like to eat monkey brains because you do.
What's wrong with that is Felton is my man!!!!!!
so tell him to raise his FG% pct and PER and play consistently smart this season and I can call him "my man" as well.
Some one peed in your cereal this morning??
You know, you're the one who started it. MrKnickShot said he was impressed by Felton. And then, apropos of nothing, you told him to stop and that he's riding Brewer's jock.
I was actually trying to be funny because Knickshot and I have been back and forth on this topic a while now, just not today...This might be a good time to mind you own biz..
Next time you should mention the fact that you're having a private conversation on a public forum. That way I'll know not to get involved.
You might be right on that one...

Hotfresh,
I can't stand JR either but he has really impressed me this season too.
Try to be open minded and bendable/less rigid in your opinions.
Kidd
Brewer
Walace
all have been home runs.
Melo has been the same - with just fewer assists this year
Chandler - pretty awful - just ok today
JR - outstanding (compared to my expectation)
Novak? I still think/hope he will find the touch - scary to say but his defense has actually looked better.

Not an entertaining game but I will take it. 7-1. Who would have guessed!!!!

haha - might have been my favorite show of all time!

Really? I don't see this at all. He's been noticeably more tenacious on defense and my biggest gripe with his offensive game--the contested 18-footers--has been minimized in favor of taking it to the rack. The guy is doing lunch-pail work on both ends, in my opinion.

Knicks sched is ridiculously easy now. Could be something like 13-2 if they don't take nights off

Love his relentless attack on the rim this year. Whether he misses or not, it puts so much pressure on the defense.

I am light as a feather. Notice I did not attack you personally but just asked a question. No one could possibly police this site. I'm just the neighborhood watch shining my flashlight in your eye!

Yea, the key is to take every team seriously. Any team can lose on any night in the NBA. I am very happy with this start for the Knicks.

well ... you have a hard time with any criticism of Felton, Tyson and to a lesser extent, Melo.
Felton for his career:
PER - 14.4
TS - 49.8
Billups:
PER - 19.0
TS - 58.1
You remember this argument? That Billups sucks and Felton is far better?

That's the other big difference. Before this, his shooting inefficiency could be traced to those pull up mid-range jumpers. Now, it seems those missed shots are coming at the rim or from blocks. That doesn't sound great, sure, but it keeps him in the middle of the play and gives him a chance for put-backs, where he's one of the best in the league. No shot charts to back this up--just my feel after watching the first 8 games.
