With Outlaw and Batum both gone for all or most of the season, and Juwan Howard being the only other backup forward on the team, he's going to get his chance, too.

To me, if that's actually the plan it's a very crappy one. Everybody around the league knows what Jeffries and Curry are about and letting them embarrese themselves on the floor is certainly not going to up their trade value. Mike D'Antoni's rotation is simply mindnumbing. It starts with Hill racking up DNP's, but it certainly doesn't end there. Why does Toney Douglas get less minutes then Duhon while clearly being the better player on both sides of the court? Why is David Lee still playing as a Center when he never got the job done on the defensive end and Hill and Milicic are rotting on the bench? What's up with pulling Gallinari every couple of minutes? How is your best player supposed to get into some kind of rhythm? The Knicks need to develope their talent and imho if Coach D'Antoni keeps this nonsense up he needs to go.

This guy will be fantastic in no time. He is quick like tony parker, penetrates with ease against anyone and has 25 feet range on his game. Did i mention his leaping ability? After all that, he also has great court vision and plays very good D already. He kept jennings without a fg on OT the other day ... Take a look he will be great! hey, take a look at Rodrigue Beaubois. This guy will be fantastic in no time.
