IM not sure of the miricle Kiki performed.

Why is he so great? Draft record?

Or just dumped salary effectively?

Greg Anthony is a TV color man. Its easy to talk, another to be acountable.

Ewing has no coaching track record.

Funny, Many wanted thuggery, this is what happens. Players today are not the men of yore. Its a new game.

NYKniCksFan87 - you're done?

you're DONE?

check the bootleg from my boy phill1c - (I'll accept the punishment for the unauthorized usage)

I mean, geez, you're whining about "we have the right to boo. New York's a tough town..."

But the minute a little fight happens, you're whining like smart kids in elementary school.

I'm sorry, but you're lame. You don't have the balls to support the knicks and yet you talk about their lack of toughness?

They had a fight. You should be happy. It was the most exciting thing to happen to the knicks at home this season.

Get this straight: the knicks are not a good team. If you're hoping that they magically become a good team, forgetaboutit. They aren't. You're just going to have to suffer some indeterminant length of time until they become one. No amount of "Isiah this or Dolan that" is going to magically change the team. Only time will.

So, please, stop acting like crying about them is going to matter. Because it won't.

And you think YOU had a bad day. Imagine me going to the Curves to do my weekly cleaning gig and to hang a couple of pictures and finding that the club was flooded. Keep your heads UP is all I'm saying. It's easy to be down. Do something hard for a change!


Do you think those other coaches and GMs are quitting or think they're "beat". No. They just keep plugging away. Only true losers see defeat in December when the team is less than 5 games out.

I have no problem with the foul. A hard foul was called or happened spontaneously. I'm happy it did. I wish it had happened in the 2nd quarter....

Greg Anthony?

Did Briggs really say Greg Anthony?

well summarized playa2

If I ruled the world the owner the Knicks owner would be Bill Bradley and you go from there...with Spike and Woody Allen as board members...

but it will never happen

If I remember Greg correctly, he was that guy that spoke eloquently in interviews and was always trying to instigate a fight whenever he got on the court...I remember him being a knucklehead...That little brother type that started fights so the big brother will jump in...Didn't Kiki get fired for not getting the right people around Carmelo...Didn't he give KMart a contract that no one else on earth even offered...

BlueSeats - you ever consider the "other half" of the so-called problem?

(my last bootleg of the day, coutesy of shady)

What happened was George Karl used his team, and an NBA game, to embarrass Zeke as payback for LB. That is personal.

Zeke responded in kind.

How many times did Pat Riley order a hit. And he is like a god around here.

Actually Pat Riley is reviled around here but don't let that stop you.

Which is what? Are you really trying to tell me that Karl leaving in some starters for one game is anything close to half the Knicks problems that are years old now?

Some of you guys want to talk about perspective but show close to zero of it yourselves.

He brought in Camby, Smith, Nene, Miller, and Camby.......

A quality pg, a top 5 center, and melo was just luck but he did a good job there, if kmart is healthy they are seriously dangerous thats just luck......

What has Isiah brought in honestly?

Do we have a player as good as Carmelo Anthony? I guess Kiki is a bad GM because he gave a contract to a guy with zero history of knee problems a big contract, and then he get hurt? Thats the GMs fault?

Dre Miller, Carmello, Najera, Camby, Nene and a healthy KMart is a pretty good team when they were built around Van Exel, Raef Lefrentz and McDyess. Dont tell me thats not a good job. Hasnt worked out as well as it could because of injuries but you cant control that. I mean its not like Kiki gave up his draft picks and spent $500mm on career losers and the team played .350 ball

Absolutely nothing.

please enough w/all this "i give up on the franchise" stuff... you guys are being way too emotional about this incident... chalk it up to a couple young kids who're trying to act tough & ended up looking like idiots... this isn't a reflection on the organization & you sure as hell don't have to stop rooting for this team because of it... & all of you damn well know you'll be back cheering for this same bunch of guys if they start to play well.

pat riley won games with that style. IT uses tough guys to cover up how badly his team is getting plundered.

we've been waiting for seasons to see results on IT's team. this is what we got. i'll still follow the team, but i wouldn't hold it against anyone who tunes them out for a while.

When the team president/GM/head coach is the one instigating it, you're damn right it's a reflection on the organization.

I'd like to think that you're finally seeing the light but something tells me you're not serious.

You talk like this is a single isolated incident, and everything has been rosy.

It hasn't, and this is just the last straw.
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.
