the best answer to the nets is to go out and play hard and win. if during the game we hit someone a little harder than we should, so be it. but the bottom line is we are getting manhandled and now we are the team that is crying. isnt it clear to see? this team is rag tag soft and put together so poorly and it is shows. we have already done more trading the past few years than teams have done in DECADES! it's enough! it hasnt worked--this team needs a fresh start with a solid plan. i dont uinderstand how some of you guys dont get it. i never wanted KVH I dont want Tt Nazr Penny this teamn scks and there are way to many older parts with to many mediocre players. this team has very little future and this azz-whoopin should open people's eyes.

Get over it.. its not only NOT going to happen its totally not feasable. Lets talk about a growing food in a big green house in Antartica where its dark for 20 hours a day.

I gotta use that.....lol.
Funny stuff.

Ps: Shandon Anderson is a waste of an expensive uniform.

enyspree: I am with you man,where is the pride, where is the love for your teamate, I mean it is too late now to retaliate, this should have been done!! Now I dissagree briggs, oakley never made these types of fouls on a regular basis, just stop that please, those old knicks gave good hard fouls, but this foul was a joke, a guy goes airborn you challenge the shot, you don't grab him, you don't go for his body or legs, that is Bull!!! Collins is a big, doofy, herman Munster look alike, and is a cheap shot artist, he knew what he was doing.... I too would be dissapointed if I were TT.. Look the knicks are probably not good enough to beat the nets, and the nets are going out of their way to humiliate us on the court, the chest pounding, the assanine dancing and prancing, the friggin throwing the ball off the glass for dunks, I mean come on man!!!!!! Damn!!! If you are letting that happen and you can't stop that, well that is fine, but don't let them physically abuse you too... that is something you can do something about!!! and we didn't!!

Nets are finally getting respect in NY after two trips to the finals.

Kenyon does not have to hoot and holler, but thats his game and he is exercising that muscle.

I have never been embarassed over this team until this year. Last year even with chaney they played hard, with dignity, pride and as a unit. I understand they have yet to gel together and unity takes time. But the whining and complaining is bull.

I hated when spree came in and dissed the team, and I hate this docile crap on the floor.

The team can earn respect by defending themselves on the court. Not stupid thuggery, but playing hard and wanting to win.

Take and ass whooping like a man, learn and grow from it and come back next year bigger, faster and stronger.

If Isiah does coach, it should just be for year. THen let his boy aguire do the job, or better yet, let him do it first.

Now I know why they wanted to play detroit so bad! gettng wooped up by cross town rival not cool and bad for business.

The New York press is calling for the end of Knicks as top dog!

All I can say is this day was coming for a long time. Quick fix of players dating all the way back to the Bob Mcadoo-Spencer Haywood days, and with ewing (trading away youth and picks) era would eventually leave them. Im sorry, we don't have much to work with in the off season and Isiah has got to work with this group to get them better. That is the teams short term salvation.

The nets have a nice Euro center coming next year. Even if Kidd ages out in two years, they could still have Kenyan and Jefferson, with perhaps Kristic as a young core to get in Brooklyn.

Again, Detroit, Nets, Indiana, Cleveland are all ahead of the knicks for now, and in the future with developing youth. They will get better also! We need to improve just to duplicate making the playoffs next year.

Our problem predates laydog, Grunfeld, and even checketts! 27 years of false mismanagement and instant gradification.

Question is: while we are better off than we were earlier in the season, are we doomed to repeat the same crime? And did we actually do it again with Isiah-Marbury?

echo that... 10 years in a row in the playoffs is impressive. We got there and *advanced* 10 years in a row with Ewing. The problem with that era is we never developed young guys, but in fairness some of the old guys we brought in were pretty freakin good.

Even Magic Johnson said on TNT last night that Collins was not going for the ball. He might know a little bit more about it than you or me. Sorry Net sympathizers. They replayed the play three times and it ain't a clean foul.
