JJ being an allstar is just an overstatment for emphasis, but if you read Hardcore post for example, you'll see that apparenlty the correct way to analyze data is to pick one little part of it, and only use it to prove your agenda, meanwile ignoring the rest.
First of all, did you not see the "IMO" ( (meaning IN MY OPINION) in the first sentence of my post? Rather than make assumptions on knee-jerk reactions (how analytical is that? LOL), just ask that I clarify the point that you seemingly misinterpreted.
I was referring to the Ray Allen quote, specifically. I even summed it up at the end, saying "Hopefully, he'll continue to improve on that playoff performance here in NY
this coming season.".
No, I did not want to go into his season stats, because my post, as well as this thread is ABOUT that statement. There are enough ppl on this board wallowing in pessimism and are all too willing to nitpick every step the Knicks make as they continue to imvprove the team. We're making progress with the roster (and hopefully coaching if we can get LB) moves made so far, and we're still in the midst of summer so there's time for more (1 or 2). That said, IMO- oh, I forgot- IN MY OPINION, ppl who do that aren't REAL fans. Those are the kind of punks who'll be rooting for the goddamn Nets in a year or two (or just turning into Knicks haters). I am 100% Knicks always and forever, like the song says.
I like the JJ pickup, and still hope he does well this coming season.
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year.
GO KNICKS!
