crickets in support

See above

ok. 1 person in support.

Check back after game 5.

the only thing that can save his ass now is a big series win against the pacers and then the heat. but for us to do that, he needs to start amare on hibbert and copeland on their PF. hell i'll even take copeland on hibbert and kmart on their PF. but knowing him he's gonna stick to tyson chandler like glue and then we'll have 2 cant shoot anything players on the floor.

Woodson on Prigioni's lower minutes: "I'm not going to sit here and explain it."

That does it for me. Fire Woody already!

Same for the Knicks then.

Then we can officially stop with any nonsense of contending for a championship. Woody has been thoroughly embarrassed as a coach this postseason and just look at his track record to see it won't change.

After Game 3 debacle, all his adjustments were for the worse and made no sense. This was a sorry performance for him.

Oh well, another mediocre period for the Knicks. I'll adapt this time and simply check them in the season and expect NOTHING in the postseason. There, I saved you guys following this team for the next few years.

Woody going nowhere = Knicks going nowhere

If getting the second seed in the east, 54 regular season wins and at least to the conference semi finals is the start of a mediocre period after the last decade+ I will take it. Guys that couldn't do that, Larry Brown, Lenny Wilkens, Don Chaney, Mike D'Antoni, Isiah Thomas. It is the middle of May. Tonight sucked and the Knicks seem to be having an epic collapse but they haven't been this far in 13 years. I don't think it is too hard to adapt to a team that is finally relevant.

Actually, this may be our peak. The Pacers will carry their playoff success to cement themselves as the 2nd seed and we'll see how the East is revamped.

Again, I'm serious about giving kudos to Woody for his regular season success, but please, see how he has coached us this postseason and see his track record and tell me if you belueve he can take the team to a real championship contention?

If you do, congrats, you have more faith than me. I have lost it this postseason and with Woody's own response after games.

Mediocrity?
Thats a mid-seed in the East, possible first round out, definite second round out. If you are ok with that, then Woody is your guy. As you say, mediocrity is better than the dark ages. Still, mediocrity won't get you anywhere close to the championship.

I heard that before. So you dont think Chicago or any other team wont improve?

Paul George is the next Rudy Gay. Indiana is going to have to pay David West and Paul George. Indiana is a deep young team so they can throw bodies at you. Problem with them is just like Denver you eventually have to put up the $$$$.

David West is UFA this summer.
DJ Augustin is UFA this summer.

Tyler Hansborough is a RFA this summer

Paul George is RFA next summer.
Lance Stephenson is RFA next summer.

I don't think Woodson is an awful coach. But . . . the Knicks are less fun to watch than some teams, in part, because Woodson is a stick in the mud. The MAD Knicks were not much worse and they were fun to watch. No, I don't think Woodson is going anywhere and maybe he'll be better next year . . .

You know I can't wait to go back to the old days when we were a lottery team. This forum was sooo much more peaceful then
