I am surprised that somebody trying to find some reasonable explanations for what is going on with this team and organization
It's in state of chaos. Everybody lost the sense of reality and all actions of IT, Dolan, players, other people from Knicks organization are impulsive and nobody thinking about the future. Because there is NO future.
The sheep is sinking and patching just making the agony longer and more painful.
I know it is tuff for “Winners in life” to admit the failure but it is time to move on.
Let it die. When past is dying the future has an opportunity to come...

What He Really Meant

>>Because there is NO future.

The future is now

>>The sheep is sinking and patching just making the agony longer and more painful.

What sheep? We don't need no steenkin' sheep!

>>I know it is tuff for “Winners in life” to admit the failure but it is time to move on.

"What we have is a failure to communicate"

>>Let it die.

Summer League is right around the corner

>>When past is dying the future has an opportunity to come...

When I can figure out exactly what "the past is dying" means, can I have a moment to work my aching brain around what exactly has the opportunity to come?

In Simpler Terms, Bring on Da Seven YOOTS!

Mardy, Jamal, Eddy, Randolph, David Lee, Renaldo and even Channing Frye

probably just as a decoy to keep his man on him & prevent him from doubling down on someone else... if you noticed he didn't have Jamal running off any screens or anything close to what would put him in danger of reinjuring himself... he was just standing there in the corner.

also probably wanted him to get an ovation from the home crowd before the end of the season to leave him w/a good taste in his mouth as he goes into the offseason of rehab.

the guy is out for 2 months, the team is not playing for anything, so was this basically something to just stroke his ego?

what if he got the ball, and took the jumper and marcus williams jumped into him and he landed on his ankle?
or what if he sprained his ankle backpeddling or when the shot went up and he jumped up for the rebound and he landed awkwardly?

i'm sorry but that was a farce. absolutely terrible. why didn't isiah do the same thing for lee or marbury?

what is isiah thinking? what is this organization thinking? just mindboggling.


come on man, you guys sound like a bunch of old women complaining.

Hell what if marcus williams was diving for a lose ball and lands into both jamal and lee, sitting on the bench in street clothes and breaks both of their legs? should neither guy not be in the building. Heck the chances of a player running into the other teams bench saving a ball is just as likely to happen..

What if jamal slips on the marble floors in his house in the middle of the night, trying to get himself a bowl of fruit loops? should jamal stay out of his kitchen? should he just stay out of the kitchen late at night? better yet, is Isiah still the devil if this happens?

geez....

What if Craw decides to bake some Snickerdoodles, forgets his oven mitt, and burns his hand?

LOL!!!!!!!

has anyone considered that IT may have put him in there b/c a small % of his brain is telling him that jamal may never wear a knicks uniform again? i mean, let's face it, outside of marbury and curry, no-one is untouchable. and, if IT wants O'neil as bad as he has eluded to wanting him, then he would def give up crawford to get him. not saying for a second that indy would go for that trade, but....

could very well be in the back of his mind jimi... maybe that was Jamal's last curtain call before an offseason where Isiah could use him as a trade chip... who knows.
