well i think a lot of us predicted we'd end up w/just enough of a crappy pick to miss out on all the top talent in the draft this year before the season even began.

There were a few but not many. Especially towards the end. Heck take a look at the one thread that suggested the lottery would be fixed to land us the top pick.

i don't think this is a disaster... it sucks we can't get a Rose or Beasely but there are some interesting options available to us at #6, & i have faith that Walsh will make good use of that pick (until he proves me wrong by pulling a Sweetney or Frye)

There's obvious value at the 6th spot but now what we're looking at is LEAD FOOT on the gas to try and win next season only to crap next yr's pick.

Thank You for pointing out why rooting for losses is retarded Cosmic.
If the point of the game is to win, then you play to win. Losing takes care of itself. As the Bulls proved and the Blazers before them, the Raptors as well, landing #1 picks takes care of itself too. It's a lottery!
I think it was Sebstar and myself who made the argument last year: If you are rooting for losses for some outcome like a #1 lottery pick, At what time do you start rooting for the team to win?
When you finally get the number #1 and land Ewing? But what if Ewing is Barnagni?
When you trade for Kobe? But what if your Kobe is actually McGrady?
***
I guess it only makes sense to root for our team when they are contending. That means you can only root once or twice a decade for fans of most teams.
***
That shytty tanking the Knicks did late this season made me apathetic. I did not care if they won or lost because they were not trying to win and they showed no pride. Not that I rooted against them because once you do that you are no longer a fan. And I am still a fan. But I have trouble caring whether the team wins if the team itself does not care.
And guess what? A #1 pick, a flashy pickup at coach, or a new GM can't cure that problem.
P.S. This draft lottery was a win/win for the non-fans who advocated tanking. If the Knicks had gotten the #1/#2 they say: "See? this is what tanking gets you: A number 1!"
And since the Knicks got a mid-lottery pick, they get to bitch that the Knicks didn't tank enough.
They just want something to post about, they really are not fans.
oohah
Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

And let's not forget the few idiots who actually fought people here who where calling for a tank to the end. I was thinking of going back to look for those names and call them out, but it's not worth anything, other than humiliation and we have plenty of that.
I'll never trust this' team again.

Oh look, it's tweedledumb. Yeah, the fans did it, MORON.
So, if fans were rooting for the team what were you doing? Trolling? Being a jackass to everyone? No, not you! The great upstanding individual that you are.
Go troll Marbury's blog some more, genius.
You got what you want, us to move down, so you could act like a jackass. What's next for you? Hoping we win 23 games next year so you can shyt all over everyone for that as well?
Why are you even here....
Maybe it would' be a good idea to go find those post's?
I'll never trust this' team again.

Maybe instead of "tanking" we should have been playing to our potential of 33 wins...and we'd be the ones celebrating right now.
The thing is though, many here had their hearts so set on acquiring the top two picks, that we probably forced it the end of the line. In chicago, it was never even mentioned as a dream to acquire such a high pick.
I think New York has too much negative energy (in areas that require calm) and we end up doing ourselves in. But we are also highly competitive and the overall success shows.
I'll never trust this' team again.

This coming from the guy who says Derrick Rose is a fraud. Get over it.
I guess we couldn't plan our lottery position as well as the Bulls?
It is funny that a bunch of Knicks fans were praying the Bulls didn't get the no.1 pick the last two years to some how justify the Curry trade and the year we don't care what pick they get... they get #1. ah well.
Give me Anthony Randolph. Maybe Mayo falls. Maybe we can swap picks with Memphis for Mayo. Lee and 6 for Warrick and 5?

That is' very strange, isn't it? And in some ways, funny.
Oh well. Seems appropriate. He's from chicago after all.
