That, or its a liquor induced rant?

Either way he is usually right.

Briggs has the benefit of picking 20 guys for the draft he likes. At some point there is a choice to make. For that none of us are accountable. We have the worst record in the NBA so its pretty freaking obvious we are lacking.

Now its pretty obvious things in NY have been wrong for a long time. The fact we hit rock bottom is a healthy sign.

For those who say "Hassan Whiteside" just remember this is a kid who has bounced around a few years and could not stick with anyone.

This is actually a personal dig--not necessary and you've been subtly doing it for sometime and I have said nothing. I don't drink my man and your obnoxious attitude is certainly noted. Hey I'm a big fan and so are most people here and this losing has gone on way to long. You have 10,000 of K of posts and maybe 5% are on the Knicks--I don't see anyone posting negative connotations towards you? If you havent noticed in 10 years I always cut my list to 1-2-3 players at the draft as in first choice 2nd choice third choice for a pick with some 2nd round names thrown in. I just made a list with a final mock I put Towns/Okafor Kaminsky and Hanlan as my choices as 2 first and as second and noted its still likely impossible to even conceive of getting this. I would choose to ignore me Nolad if it s get s you this upset on a basketball forum??? Go get your self some duck soup and relax chief.

You're a loyal fan. No one can take that away from you. Your logic falls into rabbit holes at times, but you eventually dig your way out. Here's to mud on your face, Skaol!

well I would trade him for a smarter player or a first rounder in this draft or next. Im not dumping him, there is some value but I would love to see a different player here next year

I believe Phil will try to use that same model which is why he traded for Calderon. He will continue to add high IQ players mixed with a few athletes. Hopefully he obtains the right balance. And i hope he's not afraid of getting 2 picks for 1 even though most fans disagree...... This draft is loaded with athletic roll players. I only see a few potential stars. Also i don't trust that our system is a good fit for young low IQ players. After the top 3....with Winslow and that freshmen guard from duke included...everybody else we select should be seniors like kaminsky types..... I think there's a lot of value towards the end of the 1st round or beginning of second with the seniors being pushed down due to this freshmen class and euro players. It happens every year. Some won't even get drafted.

WHAT?

I guess you can only make this statement if you have a high bball IQ.

I am not sure WTF you consider an "athlete"
