i don't see how that quote is dissing the NY fans... it's more of an indictment of the players on the roster if anything & a compliment to the NY fans' competitive drive to win at all costs.

Nobody says he's dissing the fans. It's just an insult that he doesn't have a roster that's worthy of us, nore does he prepare his roster.

i guess the question is he saying the fans want too much or the players dont want enough? Either way is lame for different reasons

Worthy of us? And who are we exactly?

i think he's saying the NY fan is so obsessed with winning that no matter how badly the players want it, the fans will always want it more... not sure how that should be interpreted in a bad way by the fans... the players should probably take it as an indictment of their own desire to win if anything.

I think isiah is right. There's NO WAY that Jared Jeffries has the same level of passion for a Knick Title that I have. 32 LONG YEARS OF PAIN!!!!

LOL That's an awesome quote. He gets to take shots at both the fans and his players. Because if anybody is going to be blamed for this mess it's certainly going to be one or both of them and as sure as hell, not Isiah.

I think Isiah was being sarcastic. Quote should have read - "The fans think they want it more than the players...dumb bastards"
Sh-t in the popcorn to go with sh-t on the court. Its a theme show like Medieval times.

Its ok for Isiah to complain about fans (who pay) but not for Larry to complain about players whom lack motivation.

Anyone see anything wrong?

Isiah was not taking a shot at the fans. He was trying to compliment the fans and also tell his own team that they are not living up to expectations. But the way he said it sounds defeatist.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.
