Best chance of adding talent is via the draft

What ever more dramatic thread titles will BRIGGS and NYKmentality create once it dawns on them, not only are we stuck with this team the rest of the season once the trade deadline is over, but we’re also locked into them for next season too!

Perhaps you;ll learn to pull back projecting and just enjoy whats infront of you. Last seaosn was not guarantee of future success and many pundits told you ahead of time. Its ok; but dont act incredulous that it did not turn out that way because you choose to ignore it.
And last season also told us unxpected good things can happen.

You remind me of the type of person who enjoys criticizing other fans more than you do talking about the game of basketball.

But I'm sorry. I forgot. You're the bestest fan in the while wide world who's always right never wrong doesn't miss the days of making the playoffs every year throughout the 1990s never gets frustrated with losing years. You're the bestest fan in the whole wide world.

Words like...

▪︎"proclamations".

▪︎"backs you into corners of despair".

▪︎ "Perhaps you;ll learn to pull back projecting and just ENJOY whats infront of you".

Who do you think you are? Who are you to tell others how to feel as a fan and to ENJOY this losing season?

Get over yourself already.

Fan forums are where like fans get together to analyze, commiserate, celebrate etc. They are communities of sorts. I would venture to guess that Hyper, Histrionic "Look at Me" type posters might consider growing a thick skin - as the attention drawn with constant grand positive or negative proclamations will often cause adverse reaction from other forum members.

Personally - I'm not giving up on the season yet and my current focus is following for potential trade activity. Failing that, if the Knicks fall way out of it, I would like to see more time for Deuce, Sims, Obi and Cam - if only to build a bridge to future outlook and projections as a fan.

My next Thread Title might be called...

Kemba Walker + Evan Fournier = Worst Defensive Backcourt within NBA History

But I'll wait until game 1 of next season before I create that thread because I'm still hopeful neither one will be here and/or we'll draft a PG to replace Kemba and bench Evan Fournier and replaced by Quentin Grimes (full time).

Manic Sad and Bipolar act?

Sorry but basketball is just a game to me. And a game that I've loved since childhood.

But at the end of the day I have my daughter and wife to love and when the Knicks lose? I don't call off for work the next day or not love my family because of it 🤭

Yes. As a childhood Knicks fan I get frustrated after losing season after losing season but you using words like "Manic", "Sad" and "Bi Polar" when we're only talking basketball frustrations is disgusting and proof that you should get over yourself already.

Ok, I called you a manchild and then you have to admit even that was a funny typo on your part.
Im glad you have a wife and daughter when the Knicks lose. Me, I have a dog to kick and 1248 to hyper-analyze.
But lets be serious, All I have is your posts. I don't know you. You don't know me, So its your posts I react to. Remember a few weeks ago were were unhinged and said you'd pull back and chill?

Yup. I quit for one night due to basketball frustration and came back the very next day due to my love of the game.

But again. I'm sorry. You're just the bestest Knicks fan in the whole wide world who doesn't get frustrated with losing and instead one who nitpicks and enjoys criticizing other posters more than you do talking about the game of basketball itself. And those to me are all signs of a person who's "Manic", "Sad" and "Bipolar depressed".

You want to talk NY basketball with me? Cool. Go for it. Shoot your best shot. But the moment you begin to attack me is the moment I'll place you on ignore and never look back (your last opportunity to get over yourself or be placed on ignore)

last year was an aberration. a .500 team went on a run. and then looked like crap in the PO's.

this year. they look like garbage 2-3 games.

they stink at fundamental basketball. they are a bad shooting team.

how can we have so many PG SG who cant shoot?

anyway... Dolan needsa go!

Personally, I think making the play-in is an embarrassment. There is no joy or accomplishment in it. I would rather have the 10th pick tbh.

Sadly I think this regime will do everything in their power to make that 10th seed.

If by some miracle we make the play in AND somehow pull off an upset and win that game we get the privilege of getting steamrolled by the Heat in a sweep


Yay

Ok thank you for that correction. Will give me a reason to continue rooting for wins.

But if we ever fall 4-5 games back of the 10th seed? Unfortunately the only thing to look forward to would be stupid random ping pong balls.

Last year we were 38-30 by the time we lost our 30th game.

This year we're 24-30 by the time we've lost our 30th game.

I guess good luck on winning our next 14 consecutive games in a row in order to get back to last years record of 38-30.

I said it months ago. Evan Fournier single handedly ruined and destroyed our Defensive Identity under coach Thibs of last year (and Kemba Walker made the situation even worse).

Last year was a fluke year. No fans in the stands, teams were tired with no real offseason, the Knicks had a long offseason to work on fundamentals. Randle was playing for a contract. So was Rose

Silver lining: the Knicks actually played really well in the 2 road losses vs Lakers and Jazz. If we can somehow add a pg in the offseason this could be a decent to pretty good team next season

Your post is threatening me? And I thought I was filled with inflated self importance from what you told me. I kinda felt bad. Im not sure how i’d feel if you gave me the silent treatment!
