It amazes me how NY Media and some fans can talk crap about people who have accomplished so much. We were DYING for a legit Basketball mind and someone who has won in the NBA. Soon as we get that man after just 2 seasons people are ready to run him out on a rail. Don't even let him finish what he's started. NO, just complain as loud as possible until he quits or Dolan decides to fire him. If that happens, then what? It only sets the franchise back again.

why do you use the word ignorant in almost every post?

Because that's the only way to describe the things some posters say without going on a 4000 word Ron Ron rant filed with explicit content.

besides.... it fits what I'm saying

i deleted my comment - it's none of my business to ask to begin with. i respect your answer though.

it amazed you (over and over and over again) how fans and the media picked the knicks to win so few games. You should stopped being so amazed and perhaps understand that there is another side to an argument / position (minimally).

and has yet to prove that he can be a decent GM.

Also the issue most fans have isn't with Phil's coaching it's with Rambis's. Even the plan of having a puppet for him offense (which isn't that great of a plan in and of itself) isn't rejected so much as the idea that Rambis is the best person out there to do it.

Phil's not GM, Mills is. Phil is President.

If you are going to accuse him of not doing his job, get his job right. It's been a couple years at this point.

That's right, go right for the Nixluva season prediction angle. Cuz that'll prove your own points. Never mind whether it's really relevant to the points being made or not. My season predictions have NOTHING to do with the point I was making. How about you explain how Fans and Media bashing Phil and asking for Dolan to interfere is gonna help this team develop into a winner? That's the point I was making.

The Knicks roster was improved last summer and will be addressed again this summer. We'll also see more development of the in house talent. The coaching situation will be addressed as well. Let's see what actually happens.

Just because Oscar has 10 rings, doesn't make him a good president,and architect. You keep talking about Phil has a great basketball mind, and that maybe true, but that's only 25% of job. How is his relationship, with players through out the league,agents, GM's, presidents.

How many presidents are at The teams practice teaching the players, the answers is 1..Phil Jackson.

Kurt is not a good motivator, and that's half of coaching, so how can u put a guy in charge who can only do one part of the job required..

it very much has to do with your predictions and outlook ... you keep questioning others who don't agree with you and you are so bewildered yet when this has often happened before, you did the same thing and you were wrong. Why not learn from that and stop questioning everyone who does not agree with you as if they are idiots.

I definitely see a valid argument for sticking with phil and what he does through thick and thin, I just don't agree with it (at least many aspects of it) but that does not make one who takes the pro phil stance an idiot. They just have another view.
