Knicks · Camby Thomas Martin all looked good last night (page 1)

BRIGGS @ 3/15/2013 8:41 AM
Where the heck has this Marcus Camby been? I guess give it a week and he'll slip on a beer and break his hand nose and clavicle.

KT has been the most consistent Knick He makes his shots 56% he plays the best D on the team even if its in limited minutes. Maybe they should consider signing a Delonte West and IF we can get some luck get everyone back--maybe the increased DEFENSE we would have with Camby Martin and Thomas with a West Felton Anthony Smith will give us the offensive defensive balance we seek. Games not over yet. Please sign West--we need A TRUE 2 GUARD and Kidd needs even less minutes---he cant keep going 1-6. We are not done yet --but please get rid of White and bring in a 2G who can play. We could have something if Camby and Martin are healthy and we have enough offense.

They look ok at best, guard play is killing us on both ends.

Theyre role players but I have to imagine that the production we saw from them last night is what the management envisioned from the start, Youre right guard play is killing is. We get our daily dose of Shumpert Kidd and white or copeland going 4-20

Also our entire team can hardly defend a fast break, or 3 pt shot in transition.
RonRon @ 3/15/2013 2:24 PM
I agree, they looked great, and what is interesting is that Camby has NEVER been productive for his career unless he gets about 25-30+ minutes
But Woodson barely seems to have any faith in him to play him for 10minutes a game
Some players can play great in small dosages, I don't believe Camby is one of them

Camby is a mobile C and disturbs opponents with his length/agility/athleticism/quickness
While Chandler is pretty mobile for a C, that little difference between Camby and Chandler in speed is the difference for opponents DEF to recover

I wouldn't be surprised if KT leads the team in charges drawn even with his limited minutes.
gunsnewing @ 3/15/2013 4:42 PM
I wouldnt be surprised if kmart leads the team in charges drawn and he just got here
3G4G @ 3/15/2013 4:59 PM
And if we had a game scheduled tonight and they had to play, they'd all look like Mega Death!!!!

Jerome James knew how to look good for 1 game ya know

JesseDark @ 3/15/2013 5:54 PM
If we don't sign West or any other guard we will be a first round tune up for some other team.

its amazing how bad our perimeter defense has been. at the beginning of the year it seemed like felton was actually playing with a chip on his shoulder but he is continuously getting killed by opposing guards on both ends of the floor. i know we need him out there because we can't rely on prablo/kidd but this team even if 100% healthy would have a tough getting passed the 2nd round of the playoffs.

They looked great. Kurt has looked good whenever he has gotten minutes. I am not sure why he doesn't play more. I only saw 2/3 of the first half but Camby looked amazing. If the Knicks regain some health and have that Camby going into the playoffs it will be great. Martin has looked good since he became a Knick. My only concern with Martin is that he has had micro fracture surgery on both knees. Knicks need him healthy to make a run. I also liked the little that I saw of Cope last night. White didn't get minutes so I am wondering if the rumors about the Knicks waiving him to sign someone else are accurate.

West or Sims. Hopefully

The team is infatuated with Rasheed Wallace....knicks have room to pick up 2 goons like delonte and a big man of done sort.

Knicks need grunwald to do his job right now

Sims was signed by new orleans i believe

When Camby is healthy he is very effectiive even at his age. The problem is that 90% of the time he is injured. I have always been a KT fan but he cant play more than 10 minutes. Martin has been on of the few bright spots the last 2 months

We gave Marcus Camby a three year deal for about $12M.

I was very happy to welcome Camby back as I thought he'd ease the load on Chandler and hit the boards hard, protect the rim.

I am an idiot I guess.

I think he was actually very effective and healthy on his post NY teams, it is shocking to see him regress so quickly after signing back with NY.

Amd they all looked horrible today:)

He played at a very high level last year. No one knew his health would deteriorate this much in one year.

Well the odds are not good signing a 39 year old to a 3 year contract.

Age does matter. Otherwise more people would start having kids at 40 and not have to worry about being tired all the time. 39, 40 and 35 year old is ancient in NBA world.
