Why is Randolph Morris even there?

This would qualify as a rant.

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed how pointless of a pick-up Randolph Morris has become? I bet you didn't even know that he actually PLAYED in two games this year, let alone the handful he played in last year. I mean, seriously Isiah, what the hell is wrong with you?

Morris showed in the Summer League that he has nice potential to be a nice role-player... so why does Isiah refuse to give him the minutes? Why does he keep putting him in garbage time every once every 20 games, and why does he keep putting 'Dolph on the inactive list, while total garbage like Mailk Rose sucks up his minutes? Rose has shown that he can put up good numbers every once in a while, but he's an absolute shell of his former self. The guy who had a chair pulling reputation with the Spurs is now the guy who looks old and fat.

In fact, why is Wilson Chandler even there?

Why is anyone even there?

I just can't understand why Isiah doesn't just say "Screw it" and call it a season. It's blatantly obvious that the Knick's aren't making the playoffs this year, plain and simple. What's wrong with playing all the young guys, like Balkman, Lee, Chandler, MORRIS?! And plus, why waste the chance of getting a GOOD point guard in the draft? It's obvious that Stephon Marbury is gone over the summer, Isiah. Your continued proverbial crap you take on him in the media has proven that countless times. Why not just call it a season, let the young guys get some good playing time, and hope for the lottery balls to work in your favor?

Is there something about getting a 35-47 record and sneaking into the playoffs as the eighth seed, only to get SLAUGHTERED by the Celtics in four painful for the fans games, that's just so appealing to Isiah? We can't even say that he's doing this to keep his job, anymore. If he wanted to keep his job, he would've shopped around harder during the trading deadline. We would be seeing new faces on the squad right now, not Eddy Curry playing 15 minutes, on 5 fouls, with 0-6 shooting. We wouldn't be seeing Jamal Crawford take a mind boggling 25 shots, make 8 of them, while going 1-9 from downtown. We wouldn't be seeing Mardy Collins take the point guard position and make it look like the hardest thing in the world.

I mean, the team would probably still suck if they made the deals, but we'd see SOMETHING. Some sort of progress.

Progress.

That's certainly a word Isiah Thomas has a hard time proving that the Knicks have made this year.

Listen Isiah, I'm BEGGING you: Call the season a wash. Give up. Play the young guys. Give them tons of minutes. Tell Eddy Curry to take a damn hike, his fat ass should be GONE after this year. Try and hope the lottery balls work in your favor. It's flat out obvious that if you try and make this team work hard to gain victories, all you're going to get is a higher draft pick, more disgruntled fans, more people begging for the young guys to take the floor as the old fat asses chug up and down the lane for 30/40 minutes a time.

Then, Isiah, maybe James Dolan won't throw down such a hard hammer when he announces that you've been relieved of coaching and managing duties. Then again, Dolan will probably let Isiah keep his job. It wouldn't surprise me.

Just another day as a disgrunted Knick fan...
