Steve Kerr, general manager of the Phoneix Suns played a joke on reserve point guard Barbosa. While in his hotel room Barbosa recieved a call from Kerr saying that he was traded to New York Knicks. Barbosa began crying hysterically. He went to the Steve Kerr and asked him I thought you guys liked me, in which Kerr replied that it was just a joke.

It has come to the point where the thought of being on the Knicks brings tears of pain to their e

I couldn't make that out- that is not the kind of thing a GM should do.

I think I'd be upset at Dolan and Thomas for making the Knicks a joke of a franchise as opposed to being angry at the Suns for finding amusement in said joke. JMO

I think I'd contact OSHA about working conditions if I were Barbosa.

Kerr can kiss my ass. He has a man lust for the Knicks. He used to write garbage about the Knicks via his column he had in Yahoo Sports. He also used to ad lib extra stuff in the vid clips he appeared in for them.

Ignore him. He inherited a winning franchise set up for maybe another year......he signed Grant Hill how hard was it to sign a guy that wanted to come? I'd like to see how he evolves the team as they start to slow down. Steve Nash might be like Stockton as far as longevity, so we'll see. He has an easy ass job none the less.

Kerr = Dick Rider

That is cruel. The thought of being traded to the Knicks... they're lucky he didn't commit suicide at the joke. That type of joking is dangerous.
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

Okay, well, I read somewhere today that it was a fan who noticed that Barbosa signed in under his real name to the hotel and played the joke on him and had nothing to do with the Suns.

Second, in case some people have forgotten. WE SUCK and have SUCKED for YEARS after being a good team.

Why get upset that people make fun of us? We're a punch line because of Layden and then Isiah and all of Isiah's clowns he's brought here.

Don't want to be made a punchline or made fun of anymore? Stop supporting Isiah. Stop being in awe of a random dunk by Curry. Stop oohing and ahhhing at Crawful's crossovers and occasional week of good play. So on and so forth.

DEMAND CHANGE. BOO THEM. STOP BUYING THEIR CRAP.

Then, maybe some day, a competent individual can turn the team around. We'll be good again, and then no one can make jokes.


It's pretty simple. (No, not turning the team around, analyzing the dynamics behind us being a joke).


I don't get how people get upset over this. WE STINK. Of course we're a joke!

What...you guys want sympathy? LOL...

Instead of Bashing Kerr (who has not yet been proven to have anything to do with this hoax) or whoever perpetuated the hoax, or fans of other teams...

Try bashing Isiah Dumbass and his clowns in McCurry, Zackass, Crawful, QBrick, CrapBury, Ared Effries, and on down the list.

It's not like you're giving up being a Knick fan if you turn on these clowns. In fact that means you're more of a Knick fan than you've EVER been because you are showing you represent the JERSEY and not the clowns who desecrate it these days.

For those of you who missed the LA/Phoenix game, a funny story about Barbosa. Apparently he received a phone call to his hotel room asking him to come to the front desk and he received “word” from Kerr that he was traded to the Knicks. He immediately went and found assistant coach and mentor Dan D’Antoni who saw how upset Barbosa was and asked him what was wrong. Barbosa responds by saying, “I thought you guys liked me”, and then tells him about the “news”. Dan tells him there is absolutely no truth to the rumor and that the next time he checks into a hotel he should use an alias rather than his real name. I didn’t realize that players checked into their hotel rooms on road trips, but funny story regardless.

fan plays hoax on barbosa <----part way down the page, not in the suns recap at the bottom, about two page scrolls down....

Hey Cosmic - where the hell you been? We all are bashing Isiah.

As of now cheering for Craw and Nates production is valid. Nobody is getting hard off of dunks and crossovers. This is a true NYC basketball fan and I my panties are starting to bunch up!

Don't get hyped up off of your imagination. Get hyped up over what the case is. Don't start nothin won't be nothin! We have been harmonious a long time around here. Don't go accusing anybody of being a highlight fan.

And by the way muthafuk Steven Kerr! And the vageen he fell out of. Anybody that trashes the Knicks can lick my dillznickles. Wanna bash Isiah or Dolan fine. But if another douch bag wants to talk bad about the Knicks.....they talkin to us die hards also. I stand by my Knicks......Knicks team and colors and building and city. Muthafuk individuals. The team is ours. The name is ours. Don't tarnish the name. That's ours.

Again if you wanna trash individuals its all valid. But if they say the Knicks are a sorry organization and tarnish the name.....if you don't feel at least a little uncomfortable something is wrong.

(Don't mind me cosmic. I been feenin to preach and haven't had much to preah about.)

Go Knicks

Go Knicks

When you get out of your fantasy world, you will realize the Knicks aren't only a joke to Steve Kerr, but to the rest of America. If that hurts you, blame Isiah and Dolan, not the people who criticize. Those people are totally right.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Let's me turn this post into a Medley because it's just that good.



Some appreciate an owner who Def Comedy Jams with I SAY UGH post game after blowouts at home.


LOL @ anyone still defending I SAY UGH a guy who wanted to spoon PREDATOR in her CHOCOLATE STAR and caught an $11.6mil case for it.


LOL @ anyone defending Expiringbury a guy who derailed our season 6th game into it.


How about defending Fat Albert..... aspirations to be a tumbler and content playing Madden 08 online in his basement but instead makes a living putting on Nate Robinson weight by season's end.


LOL @ watching our coach get cursed out during games by 80% of his starters.


3 game win streak is the John Hancock of our season.


40% shooting 2guard is Hard To Come By.


James and THE SAVIOR...M.L.E.=MOST LUDICROUS EARNINGS on this planet we call Earth.


Morris, Chandler, Balk getting BROWN OUT.

All I can say is that karma is a biatch... when I saw that Isiah had chaney escorted out of the building by security after he was allowed to hold practice earlier and then fired later that day, I knew someday that would come back to bite Isiah in the azz.. I felt so sorry for chaney that day. That was just a cold move by isiah.... I guess somewhere chaney is ROFL every time he hears the garden chant.. "Fire Isiah"....

Kerr was the advisor to Sarver the moment Colangelo the Senior walked out with his millions. Not to take away from Colangelo the Junior, but as we know its the owner who makes the final word. It would be logical that Kerr has advised Sarver well and has done a credible job thus far.

Certainly enough to diss the Knicks, who are a national joke.

But the Joke was not his so its all moot.

Any team who fails as we do and laps the salary cap is a freaking chuckle to the Nth degree.

Defending the colors? Name? Building? Not for me. Knick basketball is a product (so say its owner) and the end result the entertainment they provide is a less than credible.

Knicks are a sports team vying for entertainment dollars.

What is there to love? The history they can never take away from me and my moments, but in life things have a begining, a middle and an end. If they won't respect the fan, then they suck, well then the leave my affections at risk.

An honest effort is comendable and worth defending. The players are not really into the fan experience, management squanders talent and money, and at the end of the day they break labor laws and are not an honest organization.

I won't defend that, nor support it.

I dig what portland did as they owned up their mistakes, took it to the public, and bought out the problems, demonstrated no tolerance to bone heads and drafted high charactor guys. There are not contenders yet but they are playing good ball and are likable. The anti-knicks!
