It's a short story the Samuel Dalembart experience has to end. We have to younger players on the roster Cole A and Quincy Acy who can do better. Sam D at 34% and 2 points and 4 rebounds---the guy has fallen off the NBA ledge. Jason Smith can still be valuable as a 10-15 minute spot jump shooter but almost everything else he brings is value less. Its probably in the Knicks best interests to play Acy Early and Cole A. Also further--while Early's body is a 3--play him at back up stretch 4. That was his pos in college--this league is different now. You dont desperately need a 245 pd 4.
The veterans we brought in have been a nightmare. We wouldve done better by buying 4 2nd rounders to find two guys who could play and saved money.
Chill Briggs.
Dalembert isn't wilt chamberlain. So you can't expect it. He's in over his head with the offensive responsibly. Cole Alrich and jason smith Stent getting the job done either. Your boy Tyson chandler want going to do it either cuz he would be struggling too.
We're a work in progress. We'll get it together soon, but the expectations and panic in your posts ate ridiculous. It's not even 2 weeks into the season.

There is no panic--we just sck. It's ok to trust your eyes. I really do not have win expectations anymore as this has aligned to be a 32 win team or less.
It makes no sense to keep playing Dalembart--how many more sample games do I need to see we need younger players given their chance? Were going to sck so play the younger guys.

Yeah we suck but damn. Phil said he's evaluating so he's seeing what we are seeing. We need to see calderon and Bargnani play before anything drastic happens. I do expect a trade but there is no use complaining about Dalembert not being more than he's ever been.
We need to look at who's available. Not no bum ass nate walters. There are some good players dangling out there on teams that are losing or treading water that we could scoop up that could do what we need at the center spot.
Dalembert is a situational player right now. We need him when we face tall/long teams or when the other team has penetrating guards. Other than that, Fisher needs the other bigs.

Fisher has been playing everyone. He's experimenting and I understand what he's trying to do with the dnps. He's trying to see what guys are made of. It's all apart of this early process. A chill pill is needed. Nobody needs to catch stroke stressing over what's happening. It's frustrating but damn....change the channel. If the Knicks are dogging it and you can't deal with it do what you gotta do

I'm shocked Dalembart is even able to lace up.
I agree 100% - lets see what Cole can give you for extended minutes- 20-30 every night.
If we're losing games, lets at least build for the future.
Does Dalembart even have trade value beyond filler category? Would a playoff bound team with need for a backup/situational center like him even give us a second rounder?
