lol i liked d'antoni actually, but if you are talking about woody being a replacement for mda, guess what... i am pretty sure most people that wanted d'antoni gone didn't want woody as his replacement!!!

If so, they were awfully quiet for the past few years

maybe, but I dont know if lots of people were saying... yayyy great hire!

You don't know what people were saying after the 18-6 turn around?

small sample size right?

Yes, it is but that has nothing to do with my question.

who's going to question success, it's when you start failing, ppl take a closer look at the sht your doing...

Its like a guy at wrk produces the most, so he comes in late, leaves early or doesnt come in at all, once he stops producing, there watching him like a hawk...

I'm not asking you to question success but rather to at least recognize if not praise it. Woodson is actually the only coach who's ever had any sliver of success working for Dolan.

woodson has been the only coach since JVG that actually came into the season with a more then decent roster, that wasn't flip twice during the season..

Thats the #1 reason that DOLAN reassured there would be no changes, cause he saw how that effected all of MDA's rosters while he coach here.

The point guards are all defensively deficient, in their physical abilities. All of them.

The pacers, led by that crazy azz Lance Stephenson, simply ran past and around us.

During early January, the defense showed some life. The knicks are only as good as their Defense.

Defense.

I also wanted to see Dantoni go because it was clear him and Melo just wasn't going to work.

Similar to how people want to see Woodson go now. People are always going to defend coaches

What team did the Knicks lose to in the playoffs under Woodson, that we were flat-out better than?

Uptown - thank you for posing the question that will not be answered.

I thought we won 54 games and finished 2nd behind Miami? I thought our record last year was considered Gold?

Right now the Pacers are playing the best basketball of any team in the NBA..The same team we lost to last year and still u think the Knicks should have won in the playoffs ...

Basketball is all about match ups. As Holfresh said, the Pacers are the best team in the NBA right now. Do you honestly believe we were better than the Pacers during last years playoff series?

Exactly; like almost every coach, he'll win with a good roster and lose with a bad one. This is a legit sub .500 team. It's amazing the stats predicted this and even predicted that there would be misdirected blame towards the coach by confused fans who thought the roster was so much better than it was.

stats predicted we would win 45 games last season..

jason kidd brought cohesion that the stats would not have predicted. not assist totals-- cohesion. and with cohesion comes synergy, confidence. he made the team singlehandedly 9 games better. if you want to look back at why this must be so, compare the season where kidd stepped in and replaced dinglebury.

We have no floor leader.

Carmelo cannot do everything. He is trying and that is honorable. He is rebounding and sometimes advancing the ball. Dude is a flat out warrior. But we are killin him in the process, because we have no one else who brings consistency or (healthy) who understands cohesion.

Damn.

Kind of like Amare that first year
