So your the guy who is in the room telling people to not be so happy? Dude, your smart and of course you can see the hype. You know Nixluva is gonna lap up every drop of knick goodness and run with it.
Guess what, the other 100 on the UK on a regular basis also know there is hype but why spoil the party for some fans who extracts joy in his world reading and hoping about his favorite team. Your like the sour uncle, the bitter grampa, the envious brother, etc, who has to chime in about how your not a homer and try to bring down everyone.

NO doubt we have posters who get carried away and live and die by what the media feeds them. Why not just ignore some posts and just leave folks to discuss and be happy?

Ha..Funny stuff..I'm a homer tho..Can't root for the Knicks to lose no matter what..Last year killed me, it took me time to adjust to the losing..

Never adjust, but I can tune it out and move on.

Im playing tennis 4 nites a week and on Saturday morning so TV time is limited and not sure about how many games i'll catch this year. THis is the only site I participate in regarding sports, music, home theatre or automobiles.

I should do even less here. But after 10 years old habits are hard to break.

It is not about lose or win but about how team losing and winning.
Last year was fine with me.
Team was setup to lose and it did.
I like any system which works as designed.
This ultimately leads to stability and success.
