No, I'm not kidding. I think Davis is garbage. I thought it was a bad pickup. But they did pick him up and he will be ready at some point and they will have to address it. If Davis doesn't get the time and shots he wants, he will become a distraction. Can Lin keep this up? As long as he does, he plays. But what happens when he plays a week or two of games at a level more indicative of his true level and the novelty starts to wear off?

Davis isn't ever going to be ready. He wasn't a good fit here anyway but they needed somebody to play PG and there were virtually no other options. D'Antoni isn't going to give Davis big minutes unless he needs him which right now it doesn't look like they will. Davis won't become a distraction because they can just cut him loose as he is on a cheap, one year deal.

Obviously Lin isn't going to continue to score 25 a game when AS and CA return but he has lead guard skills and should do fine as long as he can continue to hit the open jumpers that will be there. The thing everyone seems to be missing is that his role will change with Amare and Anthony returning but it will be something that is much more suited to his skill set anyway. The thing that might hurt Lin the most is that he has gone from not playing at all to playing 35 minutes a game in a compressed schedule. Fatigue causes turnovers as much as anything.

Clearly been punched too many times.

As a Knicks fan, it's given me a reason to watch the NBA again. I probably hadn't followed closely in 15 years. I loved this kid in college playing for my dad's alma mater but in no way did I think he was anything more than a 5 minutes a game filler in the NBA. The guy obviously has talent- NorCal player of the year is no joke- but it's refreshing to see a guy who doesn't necessarily "fit the mold" just blow the league up. He's just awesome.

Can't compare him to Tebow. He's not going to lead them to the playoffs. Remember Cartardo comes back soon. It will all blow up when super thug laces up.

And Mayweather is not completely wrong. If it was a black guy who was an undrafted player and was Muslim they would get far less coverage.

And this season has been awful. Terrible basketball so far.

The Bucks, really? finishing behind them.

Even if they do get in as a 7 or 8 seed do Knicks fans still want the coach back next year?

That franchise needs new ownership and a complete overhaul. It's a disaster. This is the biggest thing to happen since Patrick Ewing. That's sad.

If he was on Indiana there would be much less coverage too.
