Well let's see. WE couldn't get on the players last year for not playing hard, because they hated their coach and it was within their rites to not play hard.

We couldn't get on them for not showing motivation and showing up for practice early because, well what team shows up early?

We couldn't get on them for not playing hard in pre-season because it's pre-season and nobody plays hard. Plus what happens if they play hard and get hurt?

Now we can't get on them for not playing hard through the first 5 games because it's early and they will play hard as the season goes on.

It's amazing how low the standards of some of the Knicks biggest fans have lowered. Are you guys actually listening to yourselves or have you forgotten what being a true fan is really about?

My friend if you are admitting that you agree with the reasons I mentioned above you have certainly lost your way and I will be glad to show you. We'll have to set up a meeting. In the meantime just pay close attention to my posts. YOu will learn a lot from them.

Marbury has been here through all those coaches, and thats Isiah's big ticket. This is Crawford's 3rd year with the Knicks. Isiah's turned the roster over so much there isnt much of a body of work to draw on. You look at the player's pasts.
Your right.. its only 4 games and that is certainly very early. The problem is THIS team shows the exact same problems as its predecessors; lack of effort, lack of defense, dont share the ball well, bad in crunchtime, get blown out. After 4 games we have 3 double digit losses. When can we call it a trend? After 10 games? 20? You tell me amigo.

Game 27. That's a crucial number in trend setting

I like 23.
