| The Knicks are officially eliminated so now they are beating playoff teams that are still fighting for playoff position because Knicks. A 2-0 week and two games to go to end this miserable season. | |||
| Rank | Player | Comments | Last weeks Rank |
| 1 | Anthony, Carmelo | The 5 days off did Melo good as he’s back to the great play we’ve seen most of the season. Melo had the best season of his career and yet misses the playoffs for the first time in his career. Props to Melo for trying until the very end. He could easily have half-assed his way through the last few games and no one would have blamed him. | 3 |
| 2 | Stoudemire, Amar’e | Amare has hardly missed any games this season and is still healthy. Figures that for the first time in 4 years he’s healthy for the playoffs and still won’t get to participate. | 2 |
| 3 | Smith, J.R. | JR isn’t on the record setting pace he was last week but still hit 8 3’s in the two games on a decent percentage. So what was up with the first 4 months, injury or just mental? I’d say injury but he seemed to instantly get 200% better the day after Woodson sat him for a full game as punishment. | 1 |
| 4 | Shumpert, Iman | Look at that defense! So glad everyone is rounding into form 2 weeks too late. | 4 |
| 5 | Chandler, Tyson | A grand total of 7 points in the last two games. OK, not everyone is rounding into form at the end of the season. | 5 |
| 6 | Prigioni, Pablo | Pablo passes the ball and he’s not Raymond Felton, that’s good enough for 6th place before we even mention he’s 2nd in the league in 3 point percentage. | 6 |
| 7 | Aldrich, Cole | Aldrich has done a nice job at backup center when he’s called upon. Which is about once a week for reasons only known to Woodson. | 9 |
| 8 | Felton, Raymond | Not a bad week for Felton. Not a good week but considering the way this season has gone I’ll gladly take a mediocre week from Felton. | 7 |
| 9 | Hardaway Jr., Tim | THJ really regressed the last few weeks. He still has potential and hopefully will grow next season. Looking back at the draft there isn’t one player that got picked after him that I’d rather have. | 8 |
| 10 | Murry, Toure’ | Murry played 1 more minute than Brown this week for a total of 1 minute played. Why develop players when you’re eliminated from the playoffs when you can add wear and tear to your vets for next year! | 10 |
| 11 | Jeremy Tyler | Same comment as for Murry, why in the world not play these guys 30 minutes a game to give them some run considering there is nothing to play for now. | 12 |
| 12 | Shannon Brown | Zero minutes this week but at least he got to wear a jersey. | 11 |
| 13 | Martin, Kenyon | Still getting dem checks. | 13 |
| 14 | Bargnani, Andrea | If you don’t have anything nice to say…. | 14 |
