Knicks (42-39) at Celtics (55-26) 4/13

Having the bench play 2 games in a row really helps fortify it. And... WHO IS THIS BRADLEY KID?

[slamtheking]

I tuned in just a few minutes ago thinking this game was going to a waste but now I'm jealous of everyone that actually saw Bradley look productive on the floor.  and dopey me I didn't DVR the game to see it

why is murphy +10 on the box score? he almost has a line of zeros as stats.

It was a sight to behold...if I didn't see it myself I would have never believed it.

Not watching the game ... just looking at the Knicks lineup tonight.

I don't think that team could manage much more than 25 wins ... even with Amare Stoudemire on their roster.

of course not. neither could our starting lineup...

Now, if only these guys could play a bit defense, too 

[fairweatherfan]

If there's one thing to take away from this game, it's that pretty much anyone in the NBA is good enough to put some numbers up if you give them 35 minutes a game.

This is sometimes known as the Tony Campbell Effect, by me who just made the name up.

I think with starting minutes, toney douglass could have equal production to chauncey. The only difference is fields for melo...Thats much better defense for less offense. Maybe playing a close game against our backups is making them look bad, but they can definitely play.

hoping they'll put some clips of it on during halftime or on this site.  probably a rarer sighting than Bigfoot

Nope -- they were weak enough against Washington but they are absolutely miserable without Delonte West and Jermaine O'Neal.

The Knicks should win this game if Amare continues to play.

Not as high on Douglas. He can't run an offense to save his life. He'd get exposed in more minutes. His scoring numbers would be good (I'm thinking 16-18ppg as a starter) and his defense would be very good but his inability to run an offense would damage everyone else on the floor.

Douglas, Fields (SF) and Turiaf are all bottom ten players at their respective position/role.

Fields value drops when he moves from SG to SF because he no longer has a size advantage and becomes vulnerable to bigger wings. So his defensive value drops off and the relative (to his position/opponent) value of his rebounding drops. I think he is a quality starting two guard though.

Then there is Bill Walker, Roger Mason Jr, Jared Jeffries and Shawne Williams who are amongst the worst in the league at their respective position/roles ... which detract considerable value from their quality players.

Derrick Brown is a useful backup SF.
