Was watching Knight School on ESPN and Bobby Knight had a very interesting quote that has alot of revelance to the current Knicks team.

"I always feel that if the best player on the team isn't the leader then he's a whole hell of alot more concerned about himself then everyone else."

Just thought that was interesting since it was coming from one of the greatest basketball coaches in the history of the game.

Did he? I wouldn't be surprised since they have a very close relationship. I don't think Bobby Knight would have any interest in the NBA at this point of his career.

Hmm Knight would've choked him and Marbs would've choked back. :P
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

Bobby knight could not coach pro ball. He's a great coach but not for men. He's better suited for underage guys that have no clue how to be a man yet.

I'm not good at keeping a cool head when someone is as overbaring as knight. Most men would not be able to take knight. There would be a borderline fight every day.

Former Indiana players said he was scared to coach pros. I believe that, it is quite easy to mishandle and belittle college young men. It is another thing to try that same stuff on grown men with families and are millionaires. See PJ. Spree is just the only one who got violent went PJ but he ran into issues in Portland too that nearly came to blows.

I'll try to speak nicely but I do want to say that Bobby Knight completes my Axis of Evil along with Chad Ford and Scott Layden.

I do hope that Bobby gets an NBA job because I so look forward to watching what happens.
