Someone's going to have to educate me on this "rivalry" we have with the Celtics. Outside of THAT GAME last year and some run-ins with Bird and friends in the playoffs back in the day, what history do we have with them? Or this solely just a New York/Boston thing?

[Edited by - K22 on 2008-10-17 11:35 AM]

Bastan-bastards have beat us more than any other team, and many of those times on their way to championships. It's not really a rivalry. It's more like dominance and trying to break away from that. The won-loss with that team is too far away to call it .500 ball. The beating the Knicks took from bastan-bastards over the decades is pretty rediculous. The biggest cities have always beat'n the hell out of us in the names of bastan-bastards, Lakers and chicago (AKA 'stinky onion').

That's why many of us loved it when bastan-bastards red sux were being dominated by the Yankees all those decades and even humiliated by the Mets at one point.
I'll never trust this' team again.

Q-brick is a piece of crap, why the F is he starting?

I completely agree. He's been the biggest missing offense so far in this pre-season.

and the other chuck, crawford...eliminate 40% shooters with defenders and guys that move the ball and the team looks like a cohesive unit...

Interesting. The Knicks bench is what's keeping them in the game. The starters have barely done anything so far.

True that. If you're going to shoot 40%(Crawford shoots below it), at least play good defense. Both pretty much blow at defense.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

outside of the raptors game, this is the 2nd time i'm watching them this preseason. curry has no place on this team. this offense is predicated on ball movement and finding the open man. but within this scheme, you still see guys like steph and nate be aggressive and attacking. meanwhile, the guy everyone said would thrive, crawford, is just sitting back and doing absolutely nothing. i don't think the guy knows how to play organized basketball. he doesn't have that first step like steph and nate to just attack, he has to do his and1 dribble exhibition to get his jumper off...and he's so confused on how to fit in that he's just another body out there. right now, even mardy collins is outplaying him. at least quentin isn't afraid to shoot and get physical even tho he can't shoot 40% either.

Shit! Every time the Knicks attempt to pull away, bastan-bastards go on the attack and make it count.

Can someone introduce Q to Paul Pierce. He seems to think this guy doesn't have a jump shot because he rolls off him.

Once again, Q is like 2-12 in the first half. Killing the offensive end.

I think it's at this point that Big Snacks is more of a quality player than Q. We're really going to need Gallinari back asap.

Herb Williams has no charisma at all and from the soundbites at training camp it doesn't seem like he has any real coaching advice. He just gives general statements.

Our defense sucks.

"Hello, my name is Herb Williams. I am an assistant coach. I watch the players run back and forth on the court. I tell them when I see something that can be better. I tell them when I see something not working. I used to play in the NBA. I was tall and could block shots. I could shoot and make it in the basket. My name is Herb Williams. I am an assistant coach."
