NY has to do whatever they have to do to pick up a "true franchise" player.

Making the playoffs like they did with Lenny wilkens didn't prepare the team for a championship run.

It all starts with a FRANCHISE PLAYER.
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

crawford makes that FT and YOU ALL KNOW IT.

except with JC we wouldnt have been so close. instead of the team shooting 47% it would have been more like 42-43%.

Why have the Knicks had nothing but losers on their rosters since the 70s ?



That's a typo, right?

Do you recall a championship from then until now ?


don't tell me you buy that marbury nonsense that everyone who doesn't win a ring is equal? you do understand isiah convinced him of that solely so his oversized but frail, ego wouldn't implode, right?

and no, Bernard king, Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley et al are not losers. and Channing Frye is not just as good as Karl Malone just because neither have won a ring.

The ability of Isiah to get into people's minds is frightening. No wonder Dolan loves him...

But the problem is we have fewer assets than any other team in the league and objectively are the least likely team to pick up a franchise player

Bonn you are absolutely right.

This is why I am not juiced up on the knicks vying for the playoffs every year.

We will never be in contention for a chip by making the playoffs and not having an opportunity of drafting or trading for a "TRUE SUPERSTAR".

Many Knick fans want to make the playoffs every yr with never really having a chance at a NBA title.

jaydh - but at the same time Crawford misses a few more shots, he gets his main man Eddy the ball where he can score.

In the immortal words of tony soprano, "Whadygunnado?"

Yeah, seriously. Now, I'm pessimistic about this team's future, but I enjoy rooting for them to win games. I get on my feet and get loud cheering for them in my apartment when they go on runs, especially late in games.
