I think the Knicks will move to a Felton, Shumps, Brewer, Melo, Chandler line up by March to slow teams down to start the game and to start the second, our rotations have been slow as of late.
We can close this thread down immediately after tonight!

I'm not sure that Shump is going to be able to play in the starting lineup and that lineup is brutal offensively.
Brutal indeed.
Tyson
Amare
Melo
Kidd or Shump
Felton
That will be the starting 5

With even Amare himself saying he's ok coming off the bench I think it's pretty clear that he won't be starting. What our starting lineup is right now is probably what it's going to be for the season barring injury. The only guy who might get benched is Brewer.
I think Woodson and the Knicks realize they can start Amare and make it work. The problems with Melo, Amare and Chandler fall on Dantoni. Knicks 8-2 with Melo, Amare and Chandler starting. Doesn't mean Amare will see more than 28mins to keep him healthy for the playoffs but he will start and finish

I don't know where you're getting your numbers but by my count they were 7-2 under Woodson and both are pretty small sample sizes. Also, most of the teams we played against weren't very good during those 2 stretches.
We beat Indy twice back to back nights and they were on top of the East at the time. Cemented that Woodson was no Dantoni
