Back Court revisited

A Mardy/Marbury starting backcourt makes some sense. They're the best back court defenders we have and deserve to start for that reason. That leaves an exciting backup combo of Crawford/Robinson.

The presense of Qrich complicates things when healthy.

In that case Marbury/Qrich starts. Maybe Q rich plays three instead but then Jeffries becomes a backup and steals minutes from Frye, and Balkman.

We probably should trade someone i mentioned. I don't know who.

Frye is probably gone.

Craw will almost certainly start, if for no other reason than he gets Eddy going.

And Q won't get much time in the backcourt...I think Isiah's realised he's a three.

if you're correct biz, then does JJ2 become our starting PF?

I think there will be some movement. I think Francis is gone, probably through buyout. And I think Nate and Frye will be packaged for something...I just don't know what. Assuming everyone but Francis is back I see the following rotation next year:

Curry / Lee / Q / Craw / Mardy

Frye as the backup 5
JJ Slim as the backup 4 with some minutes at the 3
Humpty as the backup 3, forcing Q to the 2 in big-lineups
Mardy as getting the rest of the backcourt minutes, including in 3 guard sets

That's 9 men. Snacks and Nate will unfortunately get time too.

Ye Newe Glory-torium

Here, dear readers, is the final resting place of all weary Knicks fans. Yes, here is where one comes when the Triangle refuses to have three sides, when biting one's lip from losing to win later is one loss too far,or when said fan simply hits 'rock' bottom. In short, "the ship be" eternally "sinking" here. Welcome aboard, rearrange the deck chairs as you please.
