Yea but Knickscity thats a flawed way of thinking. Youve preached it for years but the contrary bites us in the ass annually. You said the same thing about Bibby. "Its not like he is starting." You said the same about Jeffries, Harrelson, Davis etc. What happened? Guys got hurt and those guys were forced to play major minutes. I dont think Rameek is basing Kidds worth off of last year alone. Kidd was subpar the year he won his ring. Problem is, when guys gets rings, ppl get convenient amnesia and their poor play gets exonerated... See Tyson Chandler.
Bottom line is, if our starters are struggling, as much as he gets on everyones nerves, JR is our best option to dig us out of a hole. Thats scary!

You know why I don't complain about the bench?
Because the salary cap is tied into three players.
That's why I say the starters need to handle theirs.
These guys are paid like champions, so go out there.

You can't have it both ways.
C'mon man. That excuse is tired. Every time our GM screws up, that can't be your reasoning. So we should just get a team full of scrubs, overpay em and when things go wrong blame it on the guys who get paid the most. Carmelo Anthony was our best player. He led our team in scoring and went toe to toe with the best player in the league...and this was in an off year. Jason Kidd got outplayed by Roddy Beaubois. No comparison.

You don't like the reason because it's true.
I have no issue with the guys we have although I do admit amare has won thin on me.
But the point is with the cap full what do you expect to get?

Yea but whether we agree our starters are overpaid is completely irrelevant. You can't use that excuse everytime Grunwald screw up. And this offseason proved you can get players for cheap. Antawn Jamison says hello. Enough with the excuses. That excuse is worn out man. Glen Grunwald isnt doing his job. Period. The Heat have high priced players. The Lakers have high priced players. The Nets have high priced players and ALL of these teams have better benches than we do.

I think the Knicks are not trying to be in the Luxury tax hell and I think the Knicks not having draft picks hurt as well.

Maybe those teams have more attractive starters.
Once again you can't complain about the bench, if you won't aacknowledge the real issue.
Every team that has a solid bench also have at east one top 10 player, and in a lot of case they have two.
