if you don't have anything to add to this site, kindly leave.

obviously i have a lot to add,

but where are we right now martin? you're staring a 46 win team in the face and the first round exit that usually comes with it,

am i angry? yea, as a knicks fan i'm fuming mad, the donnie walsh rebuild was for nothing,

jamal crawford and zbo could've been a fine core,

if i come off with the sandpaper here, that's fair, i appreciate your subtle nudge in the right direction, i will turn down the notches with maybe a few days leave to let the leaves settle

At no point were Zach and Crawford a fine core. Not then and not now.

they started 6-2 with mda,

i know a 6-2 start doesn't mean much but they were clicking and guys were happy, plus that team had David Lee,

there were two teams that were torn to shreds in the Donnie Walsh rebuild:

first, the zbo, jamal dlee team, which could win 45 games handily (which is what i project this team to win THIS Year)

and then the amar'e felton gallinari team, which also could win 45 to 50 games easily,

my biggest gripe and really my heart aches because of this, is that we have essentially spun our wheels in the mud but we have not done so quietly, we have splashed the mud all over the village because of the hype surrounding Carmelo

I don't know if you were in a coma during the Isiah era but Crawford and Randolph were awful players for us and never won more than 33 games. There is nothing to suggest a team like that, which would play zero defense, would win 45 games.

i'm not sure if you're intentionally misreading my posts,

but zbo and jamal were doing well under new coach mda,

and zbo and jamal have both proven to be valuable pieces on winning teams since leaving new york,

the isiah era, regardless of players, was a poisoned well so we should not even look back to those years,

but since donnie was hired, two teams worth building with were destroyed and we have only a 45 or 50 max win team to show for the years of planned self sabotage

In 1996 i was in sixth grade,

the generation of nba ballers that saw me go from middle school to adulthood is now in its twilight

Ha I was in 7th. Thats around the time I started watching the Knicks religiously. The Iverson, Kobe, Nash, Allen, Marbury, Jneal draft. Hell of a class

Then PJ Brown/Chaaalie Ward happened

Last year with the Clippers: 22.4 minutes, 5.2 points, 4.3 boards, 1.0 blocks and 1.0 steals per game.

Will Woodson switch though?

Damn, so you only started watching the Knicks religiously back in 1996-1997? Which means you pretty much missed out on the entire early through mid 90's era against our true Rivals of the 1990's. Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. You also missed out on 3 of our 6 postseason series against Reggie Miller and the Indiana Pacers. Although you did catch our postseason rivalry against Hardaway/Mourning and the Miami Heat.

Nothing against our newer generation fans, but would've sucked to miss out on Ewing during his prime years and/or the Bulls and half the Pacers rivalry.

I watched since 94 & 95 when I became a Knicks fan mainly because of the playoffs. But not every single game until I was 12. I saw how much of a warrior Ewing was in those playoff series. And Ewing was still dominate in 96. Then 97 Andrew Lang broke his wrist and he could never stay healthy again. It does suck that I was too young to catch Ewing in his prime but it would've made it even harder since Ewing retired without a ring. All I wanted was for the Knicks to win one for Pat. At the time it meant more to me then the Knicks actually winning a ring.

You are lucky have have been watching Ewing religiously since the 80s eventhough you are a few yrs younger than me. I was only 6 in 1989

I know we will see strong hedging off of the PnR action.

And hinted at Woodson going for it as long as Kmart, Camby or Sheed is back to backup Tyson

At least off the bench he can be productive, and the correct blame can be assessed.

All of the starters are playing like doo-doo.
