instead of talking about the garden, maybe you guys should buy tickets and change the atmosphere.

If you mix 1 pound of ice cream with 1 pound of sh!t, what you get is 2 pounds of sh!t.

and you'd probably still eat it.

Knicks were 8-33 on the road last year. they're 5-5 on the road this year. not the same team.

I'm in VT for the year, but I'll be back next year if there are any season tickets left after the playoff charge.

then i suggest you wait till next year to talk about the "class" of knicks fans at the garden.

I don't want to wait until next year to win another home game. hey, I know you go to the games, I'm not singling you out - it's been a group effort.

i know. but i don't agree with the thought. remember, a majority of the place are season ticketholders so they had to sit through 6-7 consecutive years of BS. just imagine having to sit through LAST YEAR and all the crap that surrounded the team, do you blame anybody there from voicing their displeasure.

Shut up, djboonyc.

i'm going to pretend you're wearing a knicks jersey and say:

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO evil BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I've said before that i don't agree with booing my own team, but those fans that do, need to at least reflect on how this team plays on the road and think WHY? There's no reason to cheer a team that isn't performing, but booing guys when they come back INTO the game is excessive. I can't agree with that and fans have done that repeatedly. How about starting a chant to try and start the team up. I remember back in the Ewing era we used to do that much more often. I want this team to get a swagger back at home, so I hopw the players can get off to a good start in their next home game.

Once again it's gonna be the 2nd game of a back to back, which makes it tougher on the team. We would be coming home after playing Detroit, so you know that's gonna be draining. The fans that are at the games aren't all avid fans, so let's clear that up too. There are a LOT of company tickets in that arena. People just there for the event. In NY there are a LOT of people who like the NBA but aren't really big Knicks fans and they go to the games too. That's the reality of the situation. For years the real fans have been way up in the rafters.

If the team can't handle boos then they are not men.

I can't agree with that. How would you like it if people were booing you while you were trying to work after every mistake you made. It has an effect and simply saying "if they were men or if they were tough" is ignoring the reality of human nature. I agree that the team needs to just play through it, but fans should also consider how it will look if the team goes .500 for the season away and stays below .200 at home. That would not say much about the NY fan.

Hey man, I've played in many bands -- I've been booed before. It comes with the territory of being a performer. If you can't take it, don't get on stage (or the court for that matter). Performing in front of thousands of people who pay to see you do your thing is a privilege. True performers rise to the occasion. That's just the way I feel. What happened to "we make love to pressure"?

Knick fans dont boo when a player misses a free throw or a wide open jumoshot in the first quarter.

For the record you think playing in the Garden is bad? Try playing in some small gym in Greece where the home crowd openly threatens every american that walks in the gym. Boo's you everytime you miss a shot. And where getting hit by one coin/battery every 5 minutes is the norm. Enough of these babies. They need to learn to be tough if we are going to get anywhere.
