What's not OK? Delusion and baseless predictions.

we're all fans, we want the team to be better, but anyone who looked at this roster when it was formed can see a subpar team. No one thought these cats would be THIS bad. You thought they wouldnt be bad at all....it was impossible in your eyes.

You realize I was dead wrong about this team too

I'm throwing in the towel being wrong with 50gms to play

I had them winning 34gms, I was wronger than 2 left shoes

Show some humility for once

Lol, they gotta go on a major win streak to catch up my 36-40 wins. I thought they'd be similar of record, but would win differently.

at this point any kind of win streak will be bad considering we are in great draft position for the first time in years

definitely. I'm openly rooting for losses, and proud of it. A top pick >>>> 9th seed.

9th seed is like 30wins doubt it

No need to be wrong again, you've manned up on it

lol

agreed. Look if we were fighting for the last playoff spot it would be different bit its rare not only that we have our pick but we have a shot at number 1 getting okafor, mudiay, or even towns and johnson would be great

Look at me. I'm the devil incarnate and at the start of the season even I had them winning 28-32 games. I was considered a jerk for suggesting as much, but even I, Satan, did not think they would be this bad.

If we landed the #1 pick for the sake of discussion

Would you trade down if the draft proved to be deep

If so being realistic what would you be looking to do

If deciding to reply to my inquiry please be realistic

I don't wanna see "I'd only trade #1 for #2 and #5"

if the Knicks have the 1st overall or top 3 they better draft a player and keep them.

There's three to four players who will contribute immediately imo. I wouldnt trade the pick unless we somehow was in top 5.

So would you trade #1 for say #4 and #18 or say #8 #14 #44

Before that he had 11 straight years of playing on winning teams and a regular season winning % of .600 To say that you cant win with melo makes 0 sense. Melo really is the only good player on this team when Amare is hurt. Its pretty simple EVERY other player on the Knicks scks--their terrible inconsistent. Are some of these new posters comparing Melo to Jordan? Then stop. Did Dolan make a bad trade getting Melo--YES--but we can make Melo part of the solution. By trading Melo like some purport--we will only acheive one thing--handing over a top 3 pick to Tonto next year. Pat Riley would never trade melo--thats not how he works.

Phil Jackson made a TERRIBLE TERRIBLE trade for Tyson/Calderon. He didnt take charge to say JR--hes done waived. He brought in these players. He signed J Smith for 3+mm traded for Acy. He accepted Prigs and Larkin ass our PG and put a LOT of stock in Calderon. SO FAR PJ has taken a LOT of money and has done ZERO--he DID not try to tank. I wonder how many college games hes watched--my guess is hes watched more reruns of Seinfeld in one week than CBB games this year. He's right patience is key now(of course this is a change from the beginning of the season) but I am NOT down for 5 years of rebuilding--I do NOT buy into that. Melo is on this team hes our 22-24 point SF/PF--that is a piece. Fck the triangle---basically your saying w the triangle we cant draft or trade for certain talents---well you cant do that.

We need a LOT and the LAST thing we need is to trade melo for .30 like we traded ZACH Randolph David Lee etc... the same thing a few posters post here is the same thing posted about those guys--cant win with them. Melo is a piece--work with it shut up and do what you can to keep him healthy for the next 4 years. If they had any trepidation--I think they had time to talk about that before laying a no trade clause and 125 on him.

Yeah bottom line is you can't trade Melo. He has never been the problem. His personal record proves that. You can say what you want about him in the playoffs, but the same can be said for a lot of guys, chris paul etc. As far as leading winning teams, he's never been the problem. We need to just get some players. And Melo has proven he doesn't even need all-stars as help, just good role players who know their roles and compliment his scoring. That's it. Might not be the formula to winning a championship, but with that approach plus some luck in the draft and free agency you never know what can happen. A lot of it comes down to luck anyways. Luck like the spurs had having Robinson go down and winning the pick to select Duncan. Maybe we are due for some luck. Probably not, but you never know, we deserve it.

i dont think melo is a problem however he is what he is. I still think he needs to play with a better overall player in order to reach a title

I would agree. But that is nearly every player in the league right now. Durant still can't win with Westbrook, CP3 still can't get passed the 2nd round. People raised expectations of Melo to justify him being overrated. Funny how that happens.

And it IS, and that hurts your feelings because you're always wrong with the ridiculous predictions because you refuse to ackonledge that shyt happens....injuries happen to every team, but youre the only one shocked the Knicks have injuries.

You claimed these cats were healthy, Phil stated some time ago that Bargs was NEVER healthy and was disappointed in his conditioning, things everyone knew except you.

Most knew this team EVEN healthy was terrible and expected some injuries to happen...all teams face them.

The only thing I ask of you...remain positive, but be realistic.

Here's a start. Go......

Nix may actually be this board's MVP as I suspect they are in possession of a secret technology that allows them to timeshift and retrofit their posts within an infinitely variable time continuum only Nix controls.

When their predictions don't come to fruition, they can reboot time itself and claim they didn't make such claims.

But if they eventually get something right, they will be able to fast rewind to their original prediction for vindication.

In the meantime, their time machine produces charts and graphs on a convenient ad hoc basis to keep everyone occupied and attention diverted from their original backdated predictions.

Intelligence operatives may soon take Nix away and mine his brain for his secrets. We cannot afford to let hostile operatives get ahold of Nix and a technology that can transform a whole emasculated population into perennial optimists who support whatever the government does.

he's aite with me, just delsuional. But we're all knicks fans so we all have some form of delusion....lol.
