| 3 wins this week, bringing the win streak to 4 games! I’m of course pretending the Miami game didn’t happen. Those aren’t the Knicks I watched for the first 14 games of the season. Those were a bunch of jokers who didn’t play defense and couldn’t shoot. | |||
| Rank | Player | Comments | Last weeks Rank |
| 1 | Porzingis, Kristaps | It took a whole 5 weeks before our young, too skinny, multi-year project claimed the #1 spot. Zingis arguably outplayed our superstar Melo in 3 of the 4 games this week, including a 29 point game and a 7 block game (both tops among rookies this season). | 2 |
| 2 | Anthony, Carmelo | Melo has been alright this week. Not the untradable superstar I keep hearing about, but decent. His assists are back down, 5 over the course of the last 3 games, and his shot is still streaky. Basically classic Melo, very good but leaves you wanting more. | 1 |
| 3 | Afflalo, Arron | Afflalo is a legit starting SG, but not one of the best SG’s in the league. He is, however, probably the best SG the Knicks have had since Starks. That’s depressing. | 3 |
| 4 | Calderon, Jose | The Knicks go as Calderon goes. He played well in our 3 wins and bad in the 1 loss. | 5 |
| 5 | Galloway, Langston | For the first 3 weeks I thought we had a deep bench, now it looks like Galloway and whatever random guy ends up playing well for 1 night. | 4 |
| 6 | Lopez, Robin | His defense is still good and while his scoring has been very underwhelming, he’s scoring almost 3 more points a game than Tyson Chandler (5.4ppg). | 7 |
| 7 | Thomas, Lance | Lance is one of the teams best defenders. Once in a while he looks really nice on offense too. I’m almost ready to apologize for all the Lance hate early in the season. Almost. | 8 |
| 8 | Seraphin, Kevin | Literally everyone else on this team can play anywhere from 0 to 25 minutes on a given night. Seraphin has been the best of the bunch this week. | 9 |
| 9 | Amundson, Lou | I’m tempted to just put Lou and the 5 guys below him all at 14th. They’ve all pretty much sucked. | 10 |
| 10 | Grant, Jerian | Grant shot 2-15 over the 4 games this week and looks like his confidence is totally shot. Not good. | 6 |
| 11 | Williams, Derrick | Sometimes I want Stupid Hair Mcgee to play more, and then other teams I see he had a +/- of -15 in 6 minutes against the Hornets, and -9 in 4 minutes against the Heat. | 12 |
| 12 | O’Quinn, Kyle | Getting 2 turnovers, a foul, and a missed shot in 4 minutes of play won’t get this minutes increased. | 11 |
| 13 | Early, Cleanthony | If the rest of the bench is going to suck so bad, why not let Clean Tony get a shot? | 14 |
| 14 | Vujacic, Sasha | How did this guy start for so many games? I think the basketball gods punished us last night for such an affront to a starting lineup. | 13 |
