![]() Starks has really aged well in our memories. he was also a loose cannon and indisciplined hot head at times.
Reapeat: At times. Hart comes from a two time champ program at a good school. 4 year player who graduated from a good school. Starks went to 4 colleges in 4 years. He could play. Undrafted played 36 games for GSW at age 23. Next year he played in the CBA. |

You're taking this comp further than fish or I did. JHart brings that same energy off the bench that Starks did. Gets the crowd fired up. He's the spark off the bench we needed. Starks had great foot speed, so does Grimes. Grimes needs work on his drives, to be as adept as Starks was at attacking the rim. Elements Nalod, Elements! |

Whenever I watch today's Knicks, they remind me so much of those 90's teams. Passionate teams with a couple of hot heads, young unproven players, average vets and several lower IQ players. There were so many hard to watch wins which they made tougher than they had to be. But they fought hard, were tough as nails and got the job done. You had Ewing who was never given his props. Starks who was the hot head and sometimes a low IQ player. And toughness from Oak and Mase. They had a couple of decent youngins in Davis, Christie and Ward. Hopefully they have some of their success. 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020

I think Ewing got plenty of props for his run here but he was salty at times and at the end of his career he wanted his money and the ball. It did not end in glorious fashion as we saw soft shouldered version of him in a Sonic, then Magic uniform. The pride never dimmed as his body softened. Still beloved and respected as the greatest knick. What we often over look too is Willis as ROY in 1964 and his years as PF with Walt Bellamy at center. Willis was a form of in prime Antonio Mcdyess and what we are seeing in Randle. An athletic 4 with range and hops. Does the current team remind me of the 90's? That was along decade. There was part one under riley, then part two under JVG. My short answer is no. Or not yet. This team was a few games over .500 and then has had this wins streak. Brunson is just 60 some odd games into his knick era and Randle is a better version of Mase, but thats kind of it. I don't see this team as striking fear on defense and sending guys to the floor. Rules are different. Josh Hart been here just 10 games and 9-1 is wonderful but thats it. |

![]() martin wrote:saw this... will be really interesting. He's not a starter. Im surprised if he gets more than Mitch but who knows? My guess is about 4/$50... about $12mm perTweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: Either way he's obviously a great fit. He can play big but he's really a SG, and Grimes/IQ/RJ are also "really SGs" so there's some lack of balance but he's he plays the Thibs way "winning is more fun... then fun is fun" -Thibs
