Knicks Vision
The AftermathView Comments
Last night I reported that I had heard that Melo was possibly going to be dealt that night. He wasn’t. And I have no regrets.
Although I got trashed a bit in forums like RealGM and Pro Sports Daily, it’s no harm. Heard some pretty good disses though. Here are some posts I’ve taken notes on from last night:
Ultimate Knicks Forum:
“C’mon man, KNICKS VISION? This site makes Isola look like Edward R. Murrow.”
* Thought this one was pretty funny.
“I read a paragraph a week ago and decided to never read his blog…ever!”
* That’s fair – everyone has their own opinions.
“Both ESPN and Miranda are just taking some big swings, hoping to connect and go long, IMO.”
* I think this is a fine point, but I wasn’t trying to take a big swing. I was just reporting what I heard, which is what ESPN tends to do. So I definitely understand where this guy’s coming from.
ProSpsortsDaily Forums
“this is pure garbage.” “it truly is”
* Again, just reporting what I heard and analyzing it.
Real GM Forums
“I’ve never heard of knicksvision.com. How reliable is this guy? He looks like a wannabe Tommy Dee without the SNY backing. -Jitpal”
* Well, Jitpal, obviously not too reliable in your eyes.
Anyway, I’ve learned that in blogging (and life), you have ups and downs: this was a down. No one wants their most successful day to be as a result of a post with false implications, but sometimes it’s worth realizing that bad publicity is better than no publicity.
No worries though, that’s not my goal here at Knicks Vision. I sincerely do want to give you the best information out there on the Knicks, but if I make a mistake once in a while, bear with me, it’s a learning process.
Just wanted to clear up any foul blood. If you have any comments, questions, love or hate about last night or the Knicks, direct them to my e-mail knicksvision @ gmail dot com. For the next seven days, as a result of this yesterday’s “debacle,” feel free to ask me anything via email. All questions will be answered to the best of my abilities and will be answered in sixteen hours.
So yes, I’ve lost a tremendous amount of Knicks fans who may never come back to the site, but I come back with a new fire. Knicks Vision will be better than ever.
