Thanks stutter, good job, I hope you don't mind me updating the title. I just got home it is 1:20 and I had a crazy night. I got to the game, had good seats to the right of the knicks bench, one row behind the floor seats, My friends kept calling me telling me they see me on TV and to wave, it got a bit lame, but the seats were great, I was sitting next to this kid that looked like Harry potter and he was screaming go hawks. He was getting on my nerves, so I moved to my other friends seats right behind the backboard on the floor and those seats were sweet at hell, It is good to have friends with plenty of season tickets.. Anyway, During the game I yelled over to Qyntel woods and asked him why he was in that nice suit, he said his hip were sore, I said are you really hurt man, he said yes, but he should be fine soon. jerome James is a idiot, ,my son and his friends were picking at him and he was shooting paper spit balls at them... After the game I spoke to curry , shook his hands, the guy has a set of mits on him, craw is taller than I thought, he came over too and marbs gave my son's friend his arm band... We had a lot of fun despite the loss, we sat a few seats down from chris tucker, he gave us autographs and took pictures, he was cool.. Anyway to the game..

I knew we were in trouble when we could not shake Atlanta, curry started off good, but then dissapeared to the bench, at one time we had a real young squad in ther with Butler, frye, lee, nate, and Q at times, Butler is looking good, he is quicker than I thought and taller than I thought also. Some of the Atlanta fans sitting around me, were just drooling at all the young big men the knicks have, one fan said he would start Butler on the Hawks now..LOL... they like frye and thought curry was going to be a monster in the near future, one older gentleman sitting behind me was in awe with curry's size and quickness, said he will be the best center in the league as soon as he learns how to use his body... scary thought, and these are Hawks fans, not so called Homer knicks fans..

The Hawks took advantage of a lot of knicks miscues, marbs didn't penetrate much and when that happens, we are a very ordinary team, craw just does not seem to be getting to the hoop as much either, that hurt us. When the hawks took the lead at half by 8, I left with my friend so the club level to have some drinks, I saw takeo Spikes of the Buffalo bills, he sat at the bar next to me while I had drinks, he was laughing at me complain about the knicks. He just could not stop laughing at how mad I was...

I am mad at this loss but when I look at the knicks live and up close, you can see that we make a lot of young mistakes, you can see guys like frye, and lee(who played well) and nate, just make the typical rookie mistakes, you just know that these guys are going to be so good one day, but it just isn't right now, so they will struggle, but you can see the talent and size these guys have. lee is a bigger kid than I thought. Q richardshon is still struggling, he shot an airball, and I just stood up with my hands in the air in disgust, ariza looked over at me and just shook his head laughing, I could not take it, I could see security watching me, because they thought I was going to explode soon and probably say something I shouldn't, that is why I didn't come back to my seats for most of the second half, I just watched it from the club level, I needed some beers and Vodka to wash away the pain..

I know this is long, but wanted to share this with you guys, don'e let this team get you down, they are better than their record shows, we have a lot of promising young guys, it will take time, I see these guys are trying at times on the court, it just isn't clicking yet, but we need to give a little more effort on the defensive end. We could of used Q woods tonight... we had a hard time scoring....

It just seems as soon as we get a guy going he gets hurt....

BTW: Al Harrington killed us. He had a good game... forced a lot of shots but had some fall, that was the difference early..
