What make you be a Knicks fan? Glad to have you, but why pick our team?
Me, I started following them at age 8, but it was the Earl Monroe trade that got me hooked! Thats back in the day, back when the "Legends" were on the roster and ruled the planet!
Honestly, hehe, the two main NBA commentators in Spain were Knicks fans and I really liked the Houston/Sprewell/Camby/Johnson/Ewing team. Since then I'm a Knickerbocker. And please... hehe, don't call me Darko!

The European coaching is very diferent from the American, but they never hide their players on the bench, they simply don't trust them enough. Here, if a player misses two consecutive shots he goes to the bench, and that's why just very few players play more than 30 minutes. That's why I don't like European basketball so much.
bienvenida!!! tenga cuidado, islesfan tiene una cabeza de popa... Bonn hace también.
Good to have you man
hahaha
DarkKnicks. It's good to have you though. What do you think of Milos Vujanic and Maciej Lampe? (sorry for the spelling.
Lampe didn't do anything in Spain and as far as I know he is not doing anything in the NBA. He can shoot, he can rebound, but I don't know how to explain it, he simply is not good at playing basketball! Vujanic is a great player, although I don't know how he is going to do in the NBA. He doesn't get many assists, but he drives his team well normally. He is a nice 3 pointer. Anyway I have to admit that I have seen him only twice. His stats in the euroleague are good: 17,4 points (46% shooting) 2,8 assists 3,2 rebounds 1,5 steals 2,1 TO's.

Thanks man, my brother is studying Physics in Hannover.
Thats cool! im living in munich! Just about to finish my studies! In fact tomorrow morning ill have my first writen test in soziology!!! Where are you from???
Well, I forgot to tell you about Rudi Fernandez. He is a player I like a lot, he is a good shooter and he is a very intelligent player. His main problem is that physically he is VERY thin. Defensively he is good, but his body could make him a liability. He's super fragile. Anyway, he's 20 years old, and I'm sure he will be a great player in two years. Of course he's a SG ,hehe.
