| The Knicks are 9-8 but it feels like they’re 4-13. They barely beat the 1-14 Rockets. Lately when they win it feels like an absolute struggle. They better get it together soon because it feels like this could get ugly fast. |

Rose, Derrick |
You can count on Rose to show up every night. He hasn’t been great every night but hasn’t had a terrible game all season and he’s been healthy. It’s great that he’s playing like this but not a good sign that he’s in the #1 spot. |

Burks, Alec |
Burks snapped out of his shooting slump and led the bench mob in a number of games, including a podcast saving win over the Rockets this weekend. |

Toppin, Obi |
Toppin outplayed Randle for a few times over the last two weeks. Great to see him improved so much since last season where he looked unplayable a lot of the time. |

Immanuel, Quickley |
Quickley also came out of his shooting slump. The bench was the only reason the Knicks won any games over the last two weeks and IQ was a huge part of that. |

Randle, Julius |
Randle was downright bad a number of times recently. The Bulls game being the first time we’ve seen the Randle of last season in what feels like a very long time. Is it in his head? I have a hard time believing all of last season was a fluke. |

Robinson, Mitchell |
Somehow Mitch has been injured 37 times in only 17 games. |

Fournier, Evan |
Fourniers only good game this week was the day after I dropped him from my fantasy team. He went back to his disappearing act against the Bulls. |

Barrett, RJ |
Holy crap what’s going on with Barrett? He looks completely lost and his shot is nowhere to be found. |

Walker, Kemba |
Even when Kemba puts up good numbers you look at the plus minus and he’s a minus. |

Noel, Nerlens |
Noel came back from his 12th injury this season and…..let’s say there’s some rust to work off. |

Gibson, Taj |
Considering the Knicks centers are made of glass and teflon I’m glad Taj is always there for insurance. |

Sims, Jericho |
I have a feeling there’s going to be a game this season where he’s the only healthy center. |

Grimes, Quentin |
If Kemba keeps playing like this we might see Grimes sooner than later |
