    Knicks should cut Baron Davis already

    Guys washed up, always injured, no point in keeping him. Leave out the controversy, and let Lin be the clear starter.

    Agree with Amare with the pick and roll game. But Melo? Idk.. If he plays like he was Pre-Lin with dominating the ball so much... Could be tension.

    he played 4 games in less than a week, scoring over 20 in all... obviously he would have a let-down game, its expected.. (still got over 20 though)

    In the NBA level you either have it or you don't. This guy is not going to forget how to dribble anytime soon is he The good thing for him is, he don't even have to score. Just run the floor and let Melo, Chandler, or Amare do the dirty work. I can only see Lin's job getting easier, since the defensive is still going to be on the Knicks big two.

    I don't see how this guy doesn't succeed after what we'd already seen. All he really needs to do is score 10 the rest of the year, and run the pick and roll.

    wasn't he only the 2nd guy to have scored over 20 points and 7 assist their first 4 games starting? other guy is a guy named Lebron James.

    I always thought the amount of points scored was not the best stat to look at...if one guy goes 11/23 and the other 15/37...who had the better game and who had more points?? Look, I hope he continues to get better and do well..great to finally see

    20 points on 24 shots is horrible...especially when your 6 assists come with 6 TO's...I hope Lin continues to succeed, but watching the lakers game he should've had 10+ TO's...when melo and stat come back its not so important he scores 20+ a game, but to keep a solid assist/TO ratio. a 1:1 ratio won't cut it..anywhere

    The real test for Lin comes when the knicks big 2 are in scoring trouble. He will need to assist and score during those times, not every game the big players and knicks D can cover Lin's ass. Its evident in the past 5 games.

Little do these clowns know Lin had an off game tonight but still carried the knicks to a victory with a 20pnt 8ast night. He was clearly fatigued tonight, now he gets 2 days off. cant wait to see Lin and Amare hooking up against the raptors next game.

    Besides Davis,there are a couple other guys that sport the Grady from Sanford and Son look,who are they?One was on the other night on the Kings game.Now how can you take a guy seriously playing basketball that looks like he's on an early 70's Sanford and Son episode?

    SO many of you are ridiculous.

    Linn had a great game. his shooting percentage isnt what you want every night, but it got the job done for the night.

    Guy could barely stand up. Teammates were congratulating him in the end for just still standing.

    Schumpert plays great when he doesnt hold the ball. Thats why he did so well last night. Thats hwy Linn was in when he was tired, so he could still be THE GUY to bring the ball up and to start the plays.

    Baron Davis will not be the starter, but why get rid of a cheap seasoned backup. Bibby is the worst player in the league this season.

    Im also surprised Bibby is still wanted. He has bricks in his sneaks and was toast back in Atlanta. It's worth it to see what Davis has left IMO. When he was in it, there was no one better.

    Bibby is not the worst player in the league, that's Derek Fisher. Bibby is a close second.

    Yeh I can't imagine things could possibly change when the other side starts preparing for him

    Unless he can dramatically improve his jump shooting then he will never continue at anything close to this pace.
