Why doesn't Cole Aldrich get more playing time? In limited minutes, his production has always been reasonably good. Why is Bargnani starting at C ahead of him?
How much does Bargs make? How much does Cole make? Is this really that difficult to figure out?
There were sounds being made during camp and preseason that Cole may not even make the roster, let alone be playing games in November.

That's a bad way to run a team. Did you see how the Rockets didn't hesitate to put Beverly ahead of Lin? Now, they're back to a point where they're trying to figure out who's better but it's clear that money was never a factor. I think Cole can play much better than Bargnani has been playing.

Maybe I've said this before, but Welcome to New York City! We major in bad ways! BTW, we also have Greyhound buses leaving for warm, ungreedy places like Houston every hour on the hour!
Houston spent 10 years watching Yao Ming under perform.
Houston can afford to start Patrick Beverly.
Houston can afford to spend $25 million on Lin and then start... Toney Douglas!
Houston is ...Houston.
Looking back, I truly believe the majority of LinSanity was the rest of the league for 18 games didn't know how to deal with us centering our team around a nobody.

Lin is outstanding at dribbling to the right and finishing but a little below average going to the left. It took the league a while to pick up on this.

You are expecting the Knicks to be ran like a competent organization, the same Knicks that signed Charity Smith. I think your expectations are too high.
Fool me once... shame on you...

Bingo, it looks like melo could not handle it either.

Yeah, thank God Patrick Beverly and Toney Douglas were able to figure it out!

Houston is also one of the three teams that gave up on Aldrich and it's easy to see why, based on his preseason performance. Maybe Aldrich's nerves got to him, but he really didn't show enough to make a strong case for playing time. He showed more than Chris Smith, but that's not saying much.
