Grizzly fans have been complaining that Elliot Williams isn't getting any playing time. Hopefully he plays tonight. The rumor is he will not get a second ten day contract.

chalmers has been filling in quite nicely, so there's not much of a drop off there, just hope we defend the 3, move the ball

These are defining moments for players and their desire to win and not let their team down. This team needs him and he should be hell bent on getting the Knicks over 500. This is what it is like for the Knicks constantly digging out of holes. It's Melo's time to tough this Grizzlies game out and play. Already let the nets game slip away.

I donno man, it feels like weak sauce to say that 2 guys have different injuries and expect them to have same ability to play. An injury is an injury and they are all different. Melo has played thru a lot of them, doesn't seem like he is one to side by idly.

You call it weak sauce and whatever but man if he can sit on the bench and walk around how bad is it. He shouldn't have even been at the nets game. Go elevate it or something but sitting on the sideline stay home.

And one of them is what 22 and the other is about to hit 32 so that's a big difference on how the body can take an injury.

Not to try to call you out but there's definitely a drop off from Conley to Chalmers but Chalmers has been playing well the last 2/3 games but hopefully not tonight. How dare you compare our future point guard to Mario Chalmers?? lol

Good enough to sit on the bench and cheer his guys on but not good enough to play or bad enough you don't want to risk making it worse? LOL

You never been injured?

Seems pretty ridiculous for you to try to say he's fine when there's no way to know and also no way to know if this isn't just Fisher being careful and not taking any chances of letting him injure it even more.

Also, there was an article awhile back about how the Knicks are approaching injuries differently and trying to keep guys healthy for the entire season etc.
