Put a winning team out there to get praise. Phil should get bashed, his work has overall been terrible, but whats worse is he thought he had a good team, and admitted that numerously. Free agency has no guarantee, good players havent historically wanted to come to NY. The draft might be consolation for this pathetic season, but knowing the Knicks it's more likely they'll draft a bust than a stud.For me, I hope for the best, but expect the worst. iahvent been disappointed in quite a while.
they have a ton of work to do thats for sure
Absolutely. Sometimes it's better to be a realist than to be jaded. the only reason why the team should improve is because right now it's the worst in Knicks history.
Stop living in the F'n past!!! Why not talk about what is ahead for this team in terms of opportunities to rebuild the team. Bitching about how bad things have been is defeatist and a waste of time. There's nothing virtuous about complaining over things that can't be changed. Take stock of the fact that this team has it's 1st rd. pick and has cleared out the trash for once. This is the best chance we've had to get a franchise talent in a very long time. Then on top of that we have cap space too!!! You can't tell me this isn't a better situation than we've had in a long time.
I saw similar in 2010, only money chasers are coming. I dont trust Phil, he's old and out of touch with reality. i also dont see a single gamechanger in the draft...all those cats are flawed. even yourself said we have to strike gold, but sorry there's no gold in the draft. there's no Tim Duncans, no LeBrons, No Kobe's or Shaq's...hoping they are wont change what they are.The difference between me and you is I can see through the orange and blue glasses. Sure I hope for the best, I'm from NY and live here all my life. but I'm not jaded. i can smell the trash, even though I love the city.
Would you be a Knicks fan if you didnt live here?
This is NOTHING like 2010. This is a much more focused and in sync franchise going into this off Season. There's no comparison.
You not trusting Phil is fine, but it's also stupid. He's not old and out of touch when he just won a title 5 years ago. Nothing in life changes that fast not even the NBA. There are plenty of players who were around at that time still in the league.
It's very difficult to tell how this draft will rate compared to other years. I actually think this draft is gonna be pretty good. It's not fair to talk about this draft in terms of having an all time great or not. Who knows at this point. Let's remember that OK4 and Towns are babies. They're very young and bigs usually need some time. OK4 already shows tons of promise. Who knew for sure that Steph Curry would be this good or Butler for that matter? Sometimes a draft has great players who just haven't proven themselves yet.
No different than you blindly trusting everything year after year no matter who runs the team...it's fine...but stupid.You can be serious about Phil not being old...dude is old, dont care he won 5 years ago. BTW Kobe is too...and he's done. Where's Bynum, Lamar Odom, Artest?
5 years is a long time...get your head out of Phil Jackson butt. He's old inexperienced in the role he has and has a lot of work to do.
I'm fine with my views on the team over the years . I haven't been wrong about everything nor ever year or perhaps you just ignore the team reaching their expected goals of the playoffs in recent years. Not everything worked out due to many factors, most of the time it was because of Dolan's interference and injuries. But that's fine cuz saying that stuff doesn't bother me in the least.None of that has damned thing to do with this subject, just another lame as attempt to insult rather than provide backing for your vapid point of view.
You're talking so much BS. Phil won 5 years ago and now he's out of touch? Spurs are still winning with the same core people, Mavs, Lebron didn't just start playing last year. Durant, Rose, Curry, Harden and Dwight Howard were playing then. It's not like he has no idea who those players are. WTF are you talking about?
No, you are consistently wrong about EVERYTHING.
You have not gotten a single thing right.
I thought you might be mentally ill or just a really dumb super fan.
But I realized there could not be the real explanation for someone being completely wrong about EVERYTHING and still spouting off like you do.
You probably were a super fan, but now you're just a whore.
I know Dolan has people who arrange for plants on message boards. They have been here and on other Knicks boards. Don't even tell me I'm crazy. I already expect you or some other numb nuts to shout me down and say I can't possibly know this. Sorry pal. I know this.
I know how Dolan's psychotic and controlling attitude doesn't stop at abuse of employees and attacking union policies. It extends into the paranoid and ham-fisted attempts at tampering with public opinion. They have PR people who use at least 4-6 degrees of separation to find and locate posters to post on message boards.
You are the one I'd recruit to keep the Dolan agenda going. You're perfect, because now you're going to have a dozen suckers rush to your defense as a true optimist. You are so phoney, but the world is full of suckers. I don't believe your eternal sunshine of the mentally defective mind act any longer. You've gone so far past the point of credibility I'm sure you are driving an agenda to support this company far more than the team. You're completely full of it.
You're a hustler and a liar.
