some of you guys are sensitive,..... like baby.

Role player: In this thread people seem to be using it as it's used in a popular video game. Prospect, bench player, role player, star. In this case people are saying that Chandler at the moment is a role player. Nothign to get all bent out of shape about. It will be okay. People's opinions of his talent will not affect his development. If Isle's thinks he sucks, this will not be the determining factor of how good he can be. If Bip says that currently he is a role player, this doesn' meant he can't make 15 straight all-star teams. Get over it.

Check ya self fool. The only one that seems to be bent out of shape is you. I'm right, you're wrong. No problems here.

He's getting hate around here because he is an Isiah pick, and a really good one at that. I'm convinced of that now.

I picked up on that in April and it continues. Just go back in threads and you can pick out the usual suspects. Some of these same guys have been oozing in their pants on a 19 year European player that they basically saw on Youtube clips and one decent half of a SL game.

There is no question that Chandler gets far more positive posting than Gallinari. The nicest thing I've heard about Gallinari in the last 3 months is "there's a chance he may play this year". I think you guys are overreacting. Chandler is one of the few Knicks that gets mostly positive comments. Just because one or two guys makes a thread about him, doesn't mean the guy isn't liked. I blame Islesfan for this distortion of reality. Martin/Andrew ban him immediately
I just hope that people will like me

I thought most of us had love for Chan and realized that he has a lot of potential. I thought Gallo was the one that really get's no love. I can understand being a bit disappointed that Gallo hasn't been able to play, but I don't believe that he's less talented than most scouts felt he was, just cuz he has the back issue. Let's see how he heals and allow him time to develop like any other 6th pick.

Chan has been showing some confidence and just a bit of aggressiveness that was lacking.

Had to give props to Isles.
He is much more effective that Islanders.
He actualy is wrong... but relevant.

We Knew Mardy Collins, The Mayor, Sir, Is No Mardy Collins

"I thought most of us had love for Chan and realized that he has a lot of potential."

nixluva - no one had any love for Chandler while he was riding the pine last season. At the same time, there was not a single voice rasied to give him any significant playing time. It was only after injuries piled up and the season was given up for that The Mayor got a look. Chandler was regarded along the same lines as Mardy Collins. In March, people started to take note.


"thought Gallo was the one that really get's no love"


Didn't Danilo throw out a first pitch at Shea during the first homestand? Strange. I didn't see The Mayor invited to throw out any first pitch of his rookie season.
