from the handful of knicks gms that i watched, i believe they should give jr smiths minutes to hardaway jr and even murry.
knicks are gonna make the playoffs with or w/o him. they arent in contention but it's better to develop the young talent that they do have on their squad

Hardaway is more productive this season anyway. Knicks have continued to draft pretty well for their position.

"I get jealous sometimes when I look over at KD and he's like 16-for-32 (from the field) and then 14-for-34. ... Man," James told ESPN.com's Tom Haberstroh.



While the Miami Heat
 star is shooting a career-high 59.1 percent from the field this season, he is tied for just 18th in the league in field goal attempts (580) with an average of 16.1 per game.



With that kind of efficiency, James could stand to take more shots but explained, "I'm not much of a forced-shot guy.



"But there are games where I have it going, and then at the end of the game, I'm like, damn, I shot just 12-for-16? Why don't I get up at least six or seven more? I definitely notice it."







:lol: lebron with the subtle shots

gotta love the way they challenge each other. most guys wouldn't be willing to train and workout with their closest competition. they are setting the standard by putting up all around numbers and it's good for the game
 
I hope I'm not about to start anything here, but....

If Durant was playing on his team without Westbrook and barely pushing over .500 like they are now, would people look at him in a completely different light? Similar to how people view Melo? We all know he's an unbelievable scorer/shooter, but would people talk about how he's not a winner and he can't lead a team by himself through the playoffs? Pretty much the same critcism thrown at Kevin Love, Carmelo Anthony and some other players?
 
Kevin Love, Carmelo Anthony have gigantic holes in their game, so no I don't think Kevin Durant will ever get the same level of criticsm, he's the second best player in the league,

Well when you look at what Lebron did with his Cleveland squads, he had those teams 1st, 2nd, 3rd just about every season. If Durant was going to be looked at in a similar light as the 2nd best player in the league and his team was barely making the playoffs and losing the 1st round every year, you don't think opinions of him would change? I do. People already give Chris Paul a hard time about being the best PG in the league. I actually think Durant would not be considered the 2nd best player in the league if they were to happen and Paul would be.
 
I remember when LeBron took subtle shots at Kobe's 6-24 Game 7 shooting night...

Saying things resembling "must be nice to have teammates who can help you out when you shoot 6-24."

Then he took his talents to South Beach to join up with Bosh and Wade.

'Must be nice' Bron... :lol:
