The Knicks are a veteran team that don’t have alot of extra minutes for the rookies to play.  Renaldo Balkman has gotten a little bit of playing time.  Balkman has played in 22 games and has averaged 12.4 minutes, 3.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 0.5 assists.  He does look like he has some ability, he just needs a little more playing time.

Mardy Collins has been doing alot of sitting and watching so far in his career.  Collins has played in 14 games and has averaged 2.1 minutes, 1.3 points and 0.3 rebounds per game.

The Rookies look talented, but it will be hard to evaluate them until they get some extended playing time.
