listening to the pregame and they mentioned how kobe was stressing that wins are more important than anything. And I've noticed they have a better record then my beloved knicks. I've also noticed how zeke was like that.

Brown is all about getting better, he'd like to see progression on a upward climb. His teams always get better. It's just how he is. So if it means breaking the team down to lottery and always being better from there, then so be it.

So, would we rather have a .500 record, never getting blown out, some big games by marbs while the rest of the team just stays in the shadow? Or do we prefer a team that is ripping out the foundation and starting from scratch with youth.

I'm not sure...I've enjoyed this season...it's on of the more interesting in recent memory.

I'd have to go with the way the knicks are...take it on the chin and give it a run next year and beyond.

Today wilbon took the strong opinion that the knicks would be making the playoffs. They both agreed indiana is a slim shot to make it.

all kool aid all the time.

I'd rather get better, but I hate watching us play lost. If we really are getting better instead of just taking big strides forward and then giving it all up again, then great. It's just damn hard to watch right now.

Why are winning and getting better mutually exclusive?

Brown is all about getting better, he'd like to see progression on a upward climb. His teams always get better. It's just how he is. So if it means breaking the team down to lottery and always being better from there, then so be it.

Browns teams usually do get better with time--especially when his personnel improves like at Detroit and Philly.

So, would we rather have a .500 record, never getting blown out, some big games by marbs while the rest of the team just stays in the shadow?

That would be bad.

Or do we prefer a team that is ripping out the foundation and starting from scratch with youth.

Is that what is really happening?

Are those the only two options?

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

Isiah Thomas' plan was to win now, not to develop the kids, so he must be pretty pissed with how this team is doing. At this point though the knicks just may as well go full rebuild, the vets are useless anyway.
