Ok dj, no more pictures from the last UK get together.
isles, you have been right on a lot of the Knicks current affairs and a majority of the criticism is justified, but you go above and beyond my friend. It seems this urk you have against Isiah and this team has gotten far too personal. I remember especially a comment saying you hoped David Lee lost the 6th man award just to stick it to Isiah. I agree that playing for an award is about as retarded as they come, but to take your spite out on one of the only players that busts his ass and plays smart is just too much.
You don't enjoy any of the exciting times that this season has unfolded. Granted, there's been twice as many rip your hair out, put a gun to your head moments, but there's got to be good times somewhere. Number of last second wins and buzzer beaters (including the .1 tip in) Crawford's 52, DLee's MVP,or even as recent as Balkman lighting it up against the Raptors.
Let loose a little man. Put a pause on your busy schedule of plotting Isiah's "accidental" death, or analysing how his lunch order is somehow detrimental to the team and enjoy the good times when they actually come along.
Of course the timing of the poll's going to be even more lopsided then normal, especially after last night's embarassment.
This from the guy who has been counting down every day of Bush's term for the last 2 years.
I never said that I hoped that Lee didn't get it to spite Isiah. I said that I hoped that he wouldn't win it if Isiah was only refusing to start him because he wanted him to win the 6th Man award and take credit for it. And Isiah is already on record asking for credit for Lee being in the running.
If Lee was coming off the bench because there was a better option as the starter and was in the running for the award I would never hope that he didn't win it if deserved. But starting Jerome James ahead of him and getting behind early because of it, makes me think that the coach had alterior motives.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System
