Starks is my favorite Knick, dude represented what being a Knick was all about... squeeze every possible drop out of your talent & ability & work harder than anyone else... i don't like how they clowned him in this documentary... yeah he was a knucklehead, but dude was all heart & guts & there isn't 1 player on this team we have right now i wouldn't trade away in an eyeblink to have a player like him back on this squad.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

GO TEAM VENTURE!!!!!

just remembering what the Garden used to sound like when we actually had a team worth cheering for made me angry too... every one needs a villian so in that regard Reggie served his role... the old Heat/Bulls/Pacers rivalries were so damn intense... it's probably a good thing we didn't have message boards around back then cuz i'd have gotten my ass banned going off on rants about some of the guys on those teams i couldn't stand... Reggie & Scottie Pippen i seriously wished physical harm to come to them during games... probably another reason why i liked John Starks so much.

they showed the pippen offensive foul dunk on ewing... THAT PUNK... they shoulda slammed his flippin head all over for that. millers foul on anthony... miller did the traditional "i didnt foul the guy" deal and they didnt call it.
that game 7, maybe that was the "real" beginning of the end... the bulls were sick once jordan came back, and while they had the heat crappy loss, and the mircale run, i never had the same hope like up till 95. GO TEAM VENTURE!!!!!

I miss those days man, win or lose. The 90's basketball. The way the game was played was great. Knock down, drag it out battles to the end. The no layup rule. The hard fouls. The fights. The rivalries. The electricity. That was hardcore NBA basketball. That was basketball at its best. It hasn't been that way in a long time.
The NBA is a ***** league now and simply doesn't have the same flavor and pizazz it once did. It's not even because the Knicks have sucked. The sport has changed. The lame fouls, everything. The league went SOFT. I'll tell you, the Ewing finger roll miss just hurts to watch till this day. What's worse is watching Ewing discuss it. It's clear it still eats at him. He was almost ready to cry discussing that play. "Our attitude toward life determines life's attitude towards us." - Earl Nightingale
