Please, no more comparisions to the Pistons or the old knicks!

Espeically the old knicks! THey were good, but not good enough. Plus its just no fair to them.

Besides, you can't just take one squad and compare it to ten years of teams. Like Rolando did not play with Spree as just one example.

HOw many times we gonna do the: channing is Camby, Eddie is Ewing, Butler is eddie lee wilkins, or Steph is Starks, Lee is (fill in white guyjonly)..........

How about we compare Scott Sterlings 1980s sucko knicks with Laydens sucko knicks?

What Era will this be called when the Basketball junkies write their books?

The Isiah Era!!! Kiss the Rings Bitch!!!

EnySpree, enough with this pic already.

I'm glad that Isaiah has given us a fresh new team to root for. I was TOTALLY down and out by the middle of 03-04. We had NOTHING and no hope for the forseeable future. I couldn't take it.

Then once we got rid off Layden, I felt a little better and from then on even with the disappointment of last year, i've been more and more happy with the things Isaiah was doing. Now i'm extatic. We've got something to look forward to over the next few years and it feels good.

I'm not comparing them totally. Ewing was a WARRIOR. Curry is nowhere close to that yet. Curry, in my eyes in the next franchise center for the Knicks. They don't come very often. So that is why I made the comparison. Curry will never be as great as Ewing, but he is a solid contributor and GOOD OFFENSIVE center, which is something the Knicks have lacked since Ewing left.

Curry = loafer, on both ends truthfully. Lets see him get in good shape. But for now, Eddie Curry's name shouldn't be placed in the same sentence as our last franchise center. Patrick Ewing. Curry has to get in shape, show that he's committed on both ends to prove he's our franchise center. IMO, he's no shoe in.

Outside NY and many media personalities hold the same opinion about Ewing. Hell ask Marv Albert and Frazer what they really think about Ewing. Ewing to me was the greatest Knick of all time because for many years that man went out and just played his heart out. No pun intended but I think Curry is more about being comfortable rather than winning right now. Hopefully that will come in time. Shaq is about both, Duncan is about both. I agree with Shaq that Curry has all the potential to succeed him as the best post player in the league but it will take a serious change of personality for Curry.

Curry makes things look too easy sometimes. He did show his confused side yesterday.....I hope Larry can get him to stop looking confused and just dominate. He is scary....the kid is huge and quick.....like a wild bear!

He has to figure out how to be effective even when he is not 100% on his game. Ewing and all the good centers did that. If Ewing wasn't really into it he would turn around jumper you to death. Maybe that's it.....dude just needs a go to move.

Eddie Curry's name shouldn't be placed in the same sentence as our last franchise center. Patrick Ewing.

I like how you did that! You came dangerously close to putting the names in the same sentence but cleverly avoided it! I guess I'm a little too bored at the moment!
