the title of this thread is so ironic

Like wow, OMG, totally, dude, NO WAI... he made a typo! Like that's totally never happened in the history of the Internets before, totally.

He was making a point, and as usual, the trolls nitpicked instead of having a discussion. Thanks for playing.

Solace,

first: you can't know what is and isn't a typo, but i do find it ironic to look up and see a thread about stupid knicks and their mistakes (a bunch of guys we all follow, so we must be REALLY stupid then to write so much about them) when the accuser presented the argument in the manner that it was presented.

If you can't understand Irony, i can't help you.

second: a troll is someone who jumps in, like you did, when my comment wasn't directed at you.

third: this is annoying
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Briggs - the proper word is STILL "too"

Trust me on this

You have a yardstick for measuring basketball IQ that places David Lee far and above evryone else on the Knicks roster?

I'm just curious

I believe that would be "everyone".

You know, even the spelling and grammar police aren't above the law.

Believe that, misterearl.

No, a troll is someone who posts in a thread intentionally to berate another poster or posters. That's what you did. You're just upset because I called you on it. Sorry to have upset you.

And you're doing it. Not me. I said the title was ironic. Can you argue that? NO i don't think so. Stop being so sensitive punched in the eye again.

We really do have some dumb people in the organization. Just take a look at the Owner / GM / Head Coach / and the record.

Let's just drop it, then. I apologize if I was offensive. I took your initial post as being offensive towards Briggs, who I believe has a medical condition which sometimes makes it difficult to type -- so it'd be nice if people would cut him a little slack. But I understand if you feel I misinterpreted your post altogether. My apologies.

This is a stupid basketball team. There is no irony in that fact. I'm not talking about anything other than basketball.

The Raiders made it to the Superbowl a few years ago.

The Cardinals have a good young QB, a good RB and 3 very WR's. If they can develop a good defense and hire a good coach, they can be a very good team soon.

The Mariners won 116 games less than 6 years ago.

>>No...but I do find it funny when people bust on another poster about their spelling and grammar when they themselves make mistakes in their posts.

I would NEVER bust on anyone for spelling or grammar... that is unless they resorted to calling someone stupid in the first place. Hence, the title of the thread is what bugged me the most.

Just to add insult to injury, the eager promotion of David Lee as the only "basketball intelligent" Knicks player smacks of some serious "brainiac-quality" stereotyping...

it's pretty hilarious how you can equate a completely unproven talent like Matt Leinert as a "good young QB" & yet can't say the same about Curry... & if Leinert has some good supporting pieces around him, then what do you think D Lee & Q Rich are? the Cardinals can be a very good team soon, but the Knicks can't? why's that? what leads you to believe the Cardinals will suddenly become this legitimate contending team when almost their entire history suggest otherwise, & yet you can't envision anything from the Knicks in the coming years?

the answer = your hate for Isiah

To be fair TMS he would be comparing a 1yr expierience player at a far tougher position and sport vs a 6yr player who plays the weakest position at his sport.

since when is C the weakest position in basketball? you can equate the C position to the offensive line in football... the QB might be the PG of the team, but w/o a good C, you're not going anywhere.

I don't think that's what he meant. I think he meant the center position is the position with the least talent in the NBA, overall, so there's less competition than other positions. In other words, if Curry could get it together, he'd give us an unbelievably huge advantage. Do you disagree?

Leinart had a very good rookie year. He's not a 6th year pro like Curry.

I said the Cardinals can be a good team if they can develop a good defense and hire a good coach to go along with their good young QB and 3 All Pro skill players on offense.

Don't you think that's slightly more than what the Knicks have at the moment?

Seriously man, give it up. My feelings toward Isiah have nothing to do with this.

D Lee and Q Rich aren't All Pro's like Edge, Fitzgerald and Boldin.

o my bad, i must've misunderstood... i pretty much agree w/the fact that the C position is loaded w/the least amount of talent in the NBA, yes.

D Lee and Q Rich aren't All Pro's like Edge, Fitzgerald and Boldin.

Edge used to be an All pro, but not this year... & Fitzgerald won't be an All pro this year either... those guys played about as supportive a role on their teams as D Lee does for this team... Boldin is their star player... as for Leinert, he had seasoning playing 4 years against division 1-A competition before he came to the NFL whereas Curry had to make the jump straight from HS to the NBA.

anyway, i'm not trying to compare the 2 teams here... that's not the point... the point is you're able to see a light at the end of the tunnel for a quintessential underachieving team like the Cardinals, but can never admit to seeing anything positive in the future for the team you supposedly root for.
