As for Nate: I didn't want to shit on him too much. I just don't understand why he gets minutes. His PER last year was surprisingly good, but how the efficient, effective Mardy Collins has to wait for Nate to hurt himself to get out there is beyond me. Robinson's entertaining enough, but if Knicks fans want to be entertained they'd probably get more bang for their entertainment dollar watching that Marbury Mike'd Up interview again. Besides Nate, though, I was really impressed by the summer league team, and Demetris Nichols especially. If he doesn't make the team because of Nate's guaranteed deal, you'll really have a reason to be annoyed.
