I'll never like Kobe, but it's good to see him realize that he needs the team in order to succeed.

I HATED Tim Hardaway and Reggie Miller during the Knick rivalries, but now, when I watch clips of them, I've come to really enjoy their games.

I think next to Jordan, Timmy was right there with Reggie as the biggest Knick killer around.

yeah, jordan. HATED him in the 90's but thinking back, he was the best player i have ever seen. it was an honor to see him play, even though we were his favorite victims.

i used to hate KG. i thought he was a fraud who couldn't get out of the first round, but now i respect him. i think he'll probably get another ring in boston either this year or next.

I used to like KG, but now that he is in Boston I kind of dislike him.
You know I gonna spin wit it

I don't have any. When I hate someone, its for life.


OK one dude. Shaq. Hated his guts when he was in Orlando. Hated Penny too. Shaq turned into a funny guy and went out West to become a non-threat. And Penny just got old and Knicked up.

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.

Alonzo Mourning. Hated him for years until his second stint in Miami, where playing behind Shaq and a fraction of his former self, came in and swatted shots like a demon possessed. I WISH we had someone with his determination and toughness defending our rim.

Jordan, Mourning, Tim Hardaway, Reggie Miller, and KOBE. All hated, but grew to respect and enjoy their game.


Phuck Paul Pierce. KG I always respected and now confirmed his is pretty much a nutcase encapsulated within a egocentric complex larger than anyone has ever seen before. Maybe Marv can scratch that surface and explain it to me.

I respect the nets and do have room in my heart to still root for them. I believe if Kerry Kittles was healthy and lived up to his potential/Contract the nets might have one championship. Kidd was awsome. I don't care about his personal life.

I saw Marbury play a few games in the ACC tournament when he too GT to the final game only to lose to Timmy and Wake forest. Marbury was a ball hog and lit it up. The NY crowd just ate it up and cheered him! The scowl and arrogance really turned me off. I had good seats and he was really a jerk to his teammates even them. Didn't like him then, and was against him being a knick. I respected his talent, and remember his shoot out when he was a net and an allstar with Kobe. Great display of talent.

All time hate but respect later was Dave Cowens. This guy played his ass off every game. Very intense. He retired very young and made a comeback with Milwaukee but never had the fire. I think he really burned out. Think Bobby Hurley crazy in David Lees body with a jump shot like Dave Debussure. But 82 games a year plus playoffs intensity. Cowens was a nut job, but really to be respected for his 1974 season when he carried the Celts to a championship. Auerbach was a freaking genious drafting this guy and making him a center.

I hated Reggie Miller and didn't want him with the Knicks when he was a free agent. Wrong worng wnrog. Should have been him instead of Allan.
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.

I'm suprised no one said Chris Duhon... as one of the three or four that was keen on the signing--when it happened, I'm suprised no one said Chris Duhon yet. Why has no one said Chris Duhon? Just curious why no one has yet to say Chris Duhon.

I loved Michael Jordan, especially when he won his first ring against the Lakers.

I hated him because “he “denied the Knicks many chances of going to the NBA finals.

I Loved him again when he retired and the Knicks went to the Finals.

I hated him, when he played against the Knicks.

I hated MJ his whole career. Never started to like him until Ewings jersey ceremony.
