This would be my NEW starting lineup and reserves...

[onlyonesharky]

C-Curry 35MPG
Pf-Zach 35MPG
SF-DLee 30MPG
DG-Renaldo Balkman 30MPG
SG/PG-Nate 28MPG
Total Starter Minutes: 158MPG
This lineup gives us major Rebounding (Zach, Lee, even Balkman given enough minutes), Very GOOD post offensive presence (Curry, Zach, Lee), high energy players (in Lee, Balkman, Nate), Outside shooting (Nate, Zach), Defense (Balkman, Lee to an extent, Nate), transition players (Nate, Balkman, Lee).

Backups would be... (Total: 82MPG)
6th man-Jamaal (PG/SG/SF) 30MPG (the perfect sixth man who can play three positions
Mardy Collins (PG/DG) 12MPG
Jared Jeffries-(SF) 10MPG
Wilson Chandler-(F) 10MPG
Randolph Morris(C)10MPG
Fred Jones (PG/DG) 10MPG

IR-Steph
DNP-QRich
DNP-Jerome James
DNP-Malik Rose

[NoLayupRule]

blech

If it were up to me Id play this lineup;

Curry
Rose
Balkman
Jamal
Jones

and off the bench comes Zach, Lee, Nate and Q with spot mins as needed for Jeffries and Collins based on needs and defensive matchups

[Starksfor3]

Curry/Morris
Balkman/Lee
Richardson/Jeffries
Crawford/Jones
Robinson/Collins

[Fat Kat]

Collins/Jamal
Nate/Jamal
Balkman/Jeffries
Lee/Zach
Zach/Curry

Curry is far to lazy to be rewarded with a starting spot!

Collins/Jamal

I'll always just remember him as Julius from Remember the Titans.

But yeah, I thought he was saying something and it drove me crazy trying to figure it out.

[lowermerionfilms]

I say play the kids:

Starters:
C - Curry: 30 min
PF - Lee: 42 min
SF - Balkman: 30 min
SG - Crawford: 36 min
PG - Robinson: 36 min (some at SG when on the court w/Marbury)
TOTAL: 174 min

Subs:
C/PF - Randolph: 24 min
SF/SG - Richardson - 20 min
PG - Marbury (or Collins) - 22 min
TOTAL: 66 min

What's Steph saying in yours???

Wasssuuppppppppppppp!!!!!ehhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh wassuuuuuuuppppppp

[mjhp911]

Start Lee, Z-Bo, JSlim, JC, and Nate.

Have Curry, Taz, Chandler, and Jones back them up.

That's it.

IL Q, JFat, and Marb the rest of the way. Spot duty for Morris, Mardy, and Malik. Done and done.

that is a good lineup too but you don't have nate in your rotation?

[Huey Freeman]

Curry/Morris
Balkman/Lee
Richardson/Jeffries
Crawford/Jones
Robinson/Collins

Why?

[onlyonesharky]

C: Morris
PF: Lee
SF: Balkman
SG: Nate
PG: Collins

Bench:
Chandler
Crawford
Rose
Jeffries
Jones

Everyone else can go to hell

Believe it or not, That would be my second or third option as starting five.
This is my other starting lineup...
C: Morris
PF: Zach
SF: Lee
SG: Nate
PG: Collins

Bench...
Curry
Crawford
Chandler
etc...

Why?

Even on the most terrible shooting night, he is still a bigger threat than Jeffries. I'd start Chandler but no one knows if he's any good because Isiah never plays him.

[Da big3]

Nate /Marbry
crawford/collins
lee/chandler
zebo/balkman
curry/someone else

im not a knicks fan but i live in the tri state area so i can talk knicks too.

[KnicksGadfly]

I'd play our young guys
PG-Nate
SG-Balkman
SF-Chandler
PF-Lee
C-Morris

Throw our young guys into the fire, and see what happens. Some players will experience the learning curve, some won't.

Off the bench
Crawford, Collins, Jeffries, James

Offensively deficient, but it's time for our players to develop. Sit down the rest of those bums. I put in Jerome James cause I want to ensure that we tank, and what better way to tank than this scenario?

[5:36 first quarter] Jerome James enters game
[5:34] Knicks call timeout
[5:33] Jerome James picks up fifth foul
[5:32] Jerome James breaks leg

[clowds]

I think Isiah's starting lineup is fine. And he usually plays the right guys to finish games.

So let me be the first to tell you guys to STFU.
