Crawford injury will have a domino effect on the Knicks playing rotation

Blogged under Bloglockers, Need to step up, Front Page by alleyoop on Tuesday 27 February 2007 at 7:16 pm

With Crawford’s injury, starting small forward Quentin Richardson will now move to shooting guard to take Crawford’s place in the starting line up.  Richardson is having a good season as he’s averaging 12.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game.  The problem won’t be Richardson replacing Crawford……it will be Jared Jeffries starting at small forward in place of Richardson.  The Knicks gave Jeffries a lot of money when they signed him in the off season and he has not produced at all.  Jeffries is only averaging 3.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game this season.  He will have to pick it up on offense or the Knicks could have problems scoring points the rest of the way.  Nate Robinson will also see a bump in playing time and he must produce when he’s on the court.  Robinson is averaging 8.2 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 18 minutes per game.
