Im bored and I was in the mood for something fun to talk about regarding the Knicks for a change. Everything discussed about the Knicks these days is negative and depressing... Who are your top 10 favorite Knicks of all time? Not 10 best, but your 10 favorite.

here is mine:

1. Bernard King(my idol growing up)
2. Ewing( I grew to love him so much over the years)
3. Oakley(mr. lunchpail, the man no one opponent dare mess with)
4. Starks(classic over-achiever, all heart and hard work and exciting and enthusiastic style)
5. Trent Tucker( for all the young'ns you should have seen this guy nail the long distance trey, dood was money from 25 feet out)
6. Mason( I just liked his physical style)
7. Xavier Mcdaniel(this dood just scared the opponents with his menacing look, had mad game too.)
8. Micheal Ray Richardson( if he stayed off drugs he would be talked about along the lines of greatest pg's ever with Magic and Stockton. mr. excitement=sugar ray
9. Greg Butler(ultimate fan favorite 12th man)
10. Herb Williams(another ultimate fan favorite 12th man, except this cat had game just was a bit old when he came to the Knicks, did good job backing up Ewing.

Derek Harper and John Starks in my top 10 favorites.
[a] They lit it up a lot with the trey.
[b] D-Fence.
[c] Had the rule not been to give the award to the winning team, they would have been co-MVP of the NBA finals against Houston.

Plus:
LJ, Oakman, Mase, Spree, Camby, Ewing, X-man, and Crazy Eyes.

gotta think about my top 10 list, but it will definitely include LJ. The crowd reaction after the four point play is stuck in my mind.

the saddest thing for me was when starks lost his heart... in the playoffs before he was traded for spree.

versus indiana on the road, facing an elimination game, he brought his golf clubs - because he said he knew we weren't going to win, and at that point, he said in the papers - loved golf more than hoops.

after that, i never liked starks again.

one thing that always bothered me was - why didn't starks learn to play the point - or try to play point? he had the size 6'3", the ball handling and the outside shooting to do it.

Anthony Bonner is on my top 10.

He is the player with most heart ive ever seen. he couldnt shoot for his life but he brought so much intensity and heart to the team. He was no where near the most talented but he was definitely easy to root for.
