He sets guys up nicely. Wish they would make their shots. Nice dunk by Bargs
Its strange 3 ex-Knicks are on the floor
Early should concentrate on getting in the lane and playing defense..The long ball will and should come later..I'm glad he took off those sleeves..
Lin looks like he has lost his explosion. Hes playing a solid PG game--but hes a different player.

During linsanity everybody talked about Lin's speed and the outside shooting from Novak and others. I thought the thing that really helped Lin was JJSkinny and Amare's excellent picks. The only player with the Lakers that knows how to set picks is Davis and for some reason Scott does not like playing them together. Lin is slow it down so Boozer and the like can catch up. His speed is still there.
Knicks need to keep Shved.
Shved has a slick playground game..When he gets in the lane it's like George Gervin lite..He is not in a rush..Composed around the rim..
Shved needs to shoot his 3s within the flow of the game, though.
I think Shved might be earning a vet min contract for next year.

dude has 1 reb
So Shved has basically pushed Larkin off the team. Not that Shane was coming back anyway, but it seems definitive now

He's boxing out so others can improve their stat lines... guy is selfless.
Shrevd will be a tough decision..27 yr old next season making 4 mil per ..Seems like his game isn't complete but has been in the league at least 5 years..Tough choice..

Probably, I just hope that they work it out that they give him a contract lower than his qualifying offer to take his $6m cap hold of the cap. Regardless of what some have said the thing about SHved is that he doesn't have a real track record. Looking at his data on Draftexpres he never really played that many games overseas and besides his rookie year he hasn't played that much in the nba. THjr has played more NBA minutes than Shved and he is a bench player. So who knows if he is a poor shooter or can improve his shot.

Does a lot of little things on defense, which has surprised me.
He's also the best we have at dishing off a drive and on the pick and roll.
Will be interesting to see him against the top defensive teams.
I think that Fisher, except for the foolish 3's, feels more confident with Shved than any other guard we have.
His success really makes you wish that we had picked up a DL player on a 10 day contract. Just can't predict whose going to step up when given a chance.

I know triangle philosophy wants good shooters, but even if he is below average isn't the more important quality the ability to orchestrate, penetrate and get to the line? I mean the Knicks could have a quasi-Rubio player here
