1.) Charles Smiths lay-ups

i was at that game. the garden crowd was in shock and i've never heard the place so quiet leaving the building. walking down the stairs, people were just shaking their heads and saying "it's over."

i had a 14 game mini-plan and tickets for every playoff game.

i went to 20+ games that season and the knicks won every game...except that one. and that was the last home game of the season.

I was at that game too. Your right leaving that game was like leaving a funeral.

For me the low point as a Knick fan was the Miami brawl. Man that one hurt. It was our best chance of defeating Jordan.

Reily resigning didn't bother me. I thought he screwed up against Houston the year before.

The suspensions against Miami (as most has already stated, that was one of our best chances to beat the Bulls.)

Bernard King not being resinged (I think Pitino was instrumental in this. Bernard didn't fit Pitino's pressing, trapping, three-point gunning team)

I'm with you Eny, I was literally sick when the Knicks traded Rod. I remember the weeks before he was traded, the Papers was running consective stories on which pg will be traded Mark or Rod? And what do the Knics do to put the Mark, Rod PG controversy to rest? They trade for another PG. A 50 year old one at that in Cheeks.

Never finding another SF wince Bernard. Its been, what, almost 20 years since we had a legit/high quality SF. Most of the good ones we had weren't really SF's. They were either PF's (Charles Smith) or 2g's (Spree) posing as SF.

-Miami brawl/suspensions
-Starks 2-18/loss to Houston
-Loss to SA in Game 5
-Miller scoring 8 in the final 20 seconds or so
-Miller hitting the game tying 3 in game 4 in 1998, sending the game into an overtime loss for the Knicks.
-Trading Ewing
-Losing Houston
-Trading Trevor for Francis

This list is depressing.

Great topic Eny.

1) Starks' game 7 of 1994 against the Rockets because that damn championship was in the bag.

2) Hakeem blocking Starks shot in game 6 of 1994 Finals because I am sure that ball was going down and that damn championship would have been in the bag.


The rest is really just a blur because in those two games the Knicks cost themselves a championship.

- The Eisley, S. Anderson trade..bought them here for 7 and 8 mil per respectively.

- The Luc Longley, Travis Knight and Glen Rice trade for Ewing with one year left on his contract

- The Mark Jackson for Chris Childs (I think)trade..bringing Jackson back..

- The Rory Sparrow, Ken "the animal" Bannister, Cummings, Ray Williams, Louis Orr, etc era..

- Trading Clyde

- Giving Eisley burn over Ward

- Not drafting Amare

- Trading Strickland for Cheeks who was dead on his feet with no legs left..Strickland went on to play like 17 years after that..I remember an interview with him saying Pitino said he would never start in this league

- 12 years of Ewing in his prime and the best compliment we could do is an aging Kiki, Ro Blackman, Harper and Cheeks..

- Layden

Rick pitino said rod Strickland would never start? He must have gotten that mixed up with his coaching career.

1. Trading Clyde to Cleveland.
2. Losing the 1972 finals to Lakes
3. Losing to the Celts in 1974 playoffs.
4. Ewings "Finga" roll miss.
5. Bernard blowing his knee out. That was his knick demise.
6. Spencer Haywoods coke habit.
7. Al Bianchi's existance.
8. Not shooting OJ in the Bronco right away and the preemtive view of him over game 5 against Rockets.
9. Riley kept going to Starks.
10. PJ's midget toss.
11. Luther "Tickey" Burden not living up to his cool nickname and afro size.
12. Knicks took the money instead of accepting Dr. J from the Nets.

game 7 houston for me. just devastating. that was our championship and we blew it. just left it on the table. horrifying. disgusting. also negated all the talk about how we "woulda" so many times in the 90's if not for jordan. uh, no.

1 1994 Game 7
2 1994 Game 6 3 pointer blocked-
3 1997 the stupid brawl
4 Trading Ewing for Glenn Rice et al
5 Houston's 100 Million
6 Charles Smith
7 Reggie's 8 seconds


All those were true heartbreaks- and this sort of non- era that we're in now is not nearly as painful as when the team was really good, but not as good as we thought/hoped. The Isiah years are annoying and often ugly, but not heartbreaking like the 90's, although if we had given up Oden or Durant this past draft that would have been number one.
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

Me too, Martin. I was screaming WTF! I remember my father was going nuts too. Just another reason why I hate Tom Brokaw. The idiot kept apologizing but wouldn't go back to the game. LOL, I remember the press conference being covered on MSG and one of the questions for Riley was to explain what happen during the game because most fans didn't get a chance to see the game. Another smartass asked him if OJ should have turned right instead of left at an interception. Riley was not amused. NBC took a lot of heat from the NBA because of that. I think that was factored in their desire to be on a sports channel.

The Camby trade was bad when it happened and got worse with every day that passed after that.
Alan Hahn: Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)
