if words ruin this team then this team (or any team) wasnt good enough to begin with

“No. Disappointed in what?” Fisher asked. “We’re a developing team with a ton of new players. There are not a lot of elite teams that are depending on rookies to carry the day. So … We have to be reasonable about who we are and where we are and accept what is and not get caught up in what we should be and allow other people to define what our success is.”

Do you actually think the vets want to hear that type of talk?????

If you can't see how demoralizing and destructive those words are, you don't really know what it takes to win. We disagree about many, but even you need to put your pompoms for fisher down and criticize him for those words.

Luke Walton showed that Kerr's impact was minimal.

I don't think Kerr would be doing better with the talent Fisher has had in 15-16 or 16-17.

Dude! Seriously!

Most of what goes on in GS is about the players! Kerr inherited a playoff team that was loaded! How can that situation be compared in any way to what Kerr would have had here in NY? Kerr may have done a better job here or not! We'll never know.

All I know is before the recent rash of injuries Fish had these players improving. Also despite the losses this team is still fighting hard and having a chance to win these games. Fish is far from perfect but a lot of the issues have nothing to do with Fish. Unless you wanna blame him for missed shots late in games.

You need to really take a few minutes and think about how far you're taking your hatred of Fisher cause you're now at the point where you're taking EVERY single thing small or big that happens with the Knicks and trying your hardest to find ways to turn it on Fisher to make him look bad. It's really getting way out of control by you and like 4/5 other posters on here. He's not a great coach we all realize that but the problem is that besides you 4/5 posters the rest of us see that it's not as bad as you guys make him out to be. Most can see that he doesn't have the greatest situation and that there's more to it then what you guys see. To spend every single minute you post on this board finding ways to hate on Fisher and not be able to enjoy the things that we do have going for us must be a horrible way to spend all of your time. Why don't you guys just go with the flow here and let everything work itself out?? We have a very smart man in charge of this roster and who's coaching it so just let it run it's course and see if when we get Melo and KP the right help if Fisher can be able to coach them to something positive cause no matter how much whining and crying you guys do on a message board about Fisher (and it's a huge amount of time) he's still gonna be the coach until Phil doesn't think he's the right guy for the job. Good luck with that but what Fisher said will not effect the team at all in no way what so ever.

Knicks1969, if Phil has problem with Fish and his statement he'll deal with it, not you or public opinion so molded by the snit infested media.
Why not read Phils books and learn that not all his championship teams got the triangle leading to a early playoff loss, or it took late in the season before the light went off.

The team is inconsistent, but that means they do get it at times.
Rookies are inconsistent. We have two.
Young players are inconsistent, we have Gallo.
New players need time to learn, we got a bunch.

Kerr took a team that won 55 games and worked from there. Good for him. Phil took a team that won 37 an saw it was in decline and blew it up.

The redundant Rainman act is getting old.

Hellz no he wouldn't. The GSW's team shows how it's a players league, if you don't have the player you're gonna have a tough time winning and if you do have the players then it's not gonna matter too much who the coach is cause you're gonna win. Now i don't wanna say that these teams don't need a coach cause someone has to make them practice hard and make substitutions and other things but without a good team of players...................................
