Naw. Seems like Woody is still playing with his rotation.

I kinda feel bad because he's had to deal with Wallace being here then not. Working Shump, STAT, Camby in. Now dealing with injuries.

And Felton getting hurt as well.

The spread offense doesn't work without a focal point. You need a legit penetrator/distributor and someone to feature in the high or low post. This is to force the defense to have to react and create open shots on the perimeter or score at the basket/midrange. We have too many dumb players handling the ball rather than moving the ball and moving themselves.

Knicks need to dig in on D and hope to keep the pace slow.

But the whole reason we got Felton was because he's a legit smart veteran penetrator and distributor with a track record.

that was about the most humiliating defense I have ever seen.

Felton is a teletubby. distributor? He probably averages like 3-4 assists per game.

Kenyon Martin was pretty good get. He has looked really good. Kurt Thomas is just a 100 years old

He was playing pretty good to start the year. What do you think has changed between now and then? Maybe all the hand and other injuries are just adding uo

Our backcourt needs to be overhauled, in its entirety.

That's a bit much. Camby has actually had a real career.

Or maybe every team in the league knows exactly what we will do all game long? Becuase we don't have a offensive system?

The injuries, and the (chocolate) chip he had on his shoulder has fallen off. I wasn't particularly impressed with him at all this year to be honest. He's a brick factory and misses way too many lay-ups. I liked him his first time here, but he just doesn't seem good enough to the starter on a strong team.

We do though. We're basically running MDA's system right? So if anything we can blame our woeful offense on MDA.

Yeah well, there are definitely people here who will blame MDA if the Yankees lose to the Red Sox or sequestration takes holds with spending cuts. Whether you choose to beone of them is up to you.

Felton just got embarrassed
