Its because NYK hasnt had a player of TMac's caliber since Patrick Ewing left - and you can argue that TMac has more star power than Pat ever had - it is exciting to have him on the roster even if its just for a short period. Too bad he is coming off an injury and there are so many ? around him.

T-Mac has had a nice career. Ewing has had a HOF career in the post playing on championship caliber teams. After 13 years in the league T-Mac is still being dogged about getting out of the first round and doesn't look like it going to happen this year either. At his best T-Mac's career has been disappointing. Truth be told he has a slightly better career than Marbury but not much better.

Best game I've watched in years. Don't get me wrong, nate's 41 was awesome. But I was having flash backs of having an actual star on the team.

I was cheering and going crazy.

It is just you.

Gallo was same gallo. Some games he gets 6 shots. That was happening long before tmac. And his shots went to house who hit his shots. Maybe gallo will learn to make all of his shots going forward.

It's time for him to step up. Chandler played great with te exception of that last shot but I blame the play call.

Hol? Hol? Come on man.

Tmac had 19 in the first half.
Everyone was going nuts.
Sergio was exciting.
Great game. I'll take this the rest of the way.

Having a star is ALL the difference.

I'm done with the youth. I want superstars from here on out.

If gallo and Chandler turn into melo and cp3. Would you cry?
Two max means adios lee. But two max baby.

Wow. Great game and renewed hope.

The garden has gone from chanting fire Isiah to we want Nate to we want T-Mac.

That's progress IMHO.

Let's go Knicks. That's amare

What crap? You want to compare Ewing to T-Mac's career after 13 years in the league? T-Mac has had a nice career but has been a disappointment much like Marbury. Both failed to get their team out of the first round of the playoffs. Both put up very good stats without making their team better. Or should I start getting use to people using McGrady's 21ppg like people used to use Marbury, 20ppg and 8ast as means to justify what they did. Let's not act like McGrady helped earn Orlando that first pick to get Dwight.

You want to do cartwheels and scream if it makes you feel better. Be my guess. My ki is fine without doing so.

Who's hating? I disagree with Oasis about T-Mac being a bigger star than Ewing. The guy has been a Knick for a couple of days while I making a case for the Knicks all-time leader in every category but assist. Come back to reality cooch.

I forget how often one line of a well crafted post becomes the remaining contenton of the rest of the posts.

Everyone knows Ewing is a bigger star.

Now play nice.

Ok..cool...,Thats just me..just ask urself one thing...When was the last time anything like this worked in the Knicks favor...When?...

Great point.

As a result of this, we must be overly negative about everything. Then we will return to greatness.

LOL, it's cooch. I guess since I'm not going nuts about McGrady, I'm hating on the Knicks. What's going on here with this we all to have positive energy stuff and sign Kumbaya. Like I said if he wants to do cartwheels he is more than welcome. Me, I'm still waiting on the summer of 2010 to see whether it has been successful or not. McGrady doesn't factor in my equation. Much like Al, he is suppose to be a means to end.

I stand by what I said. If the solution to not getting Lebron and Wade or Bosh is to resign McGrady then that is a fail. One game is going to change that for me.

Why not? Both have been all-stars. Both have put up great numbers. Both accused for not making their team better despite their numbers. Both failing to get out of the first round. Both have played on sorry teams as well. Both have been traded because their presence on their teams were no longer welcome.

So T-Mac has never been described as being the same? Many people who root for the Magic and Rockets have described T-Mac the same way. You are making my point.

Marbury cannot carry a team, TMAC can.
Marbury is a not cancer, HE'S MORE LIKE AIDS----NO CURE
Bengay and ice maybe some cortizone, no more rubbing his knee, and like the garden said
WE WANT TMAC

T-Mac's here to sell tickets for the rest of the season... so deal with Wilson & Gallo not getting their shots cuz that's gonna be the case the rest of the way as long as T-Mac is being featured in this offense... the develop the youth plan is no longer in effect... now it's the T-Mac & company show.
