sorry I have been away for so long. It has been a hectic few months. i still keep up with the Knicks news and was getting angry for a hot minute becasue of the debacle. i do have a decent amount to say, some negative and some positive. First negative. i know it is old news but the whole LB debacle made us look like a**es. Granted, i did not agree with how he ran this team by constantly insulting them in front of the media and openly expressin he does not have faith in this team. but still this is a hof coach. you can't just lead him on and then fire him because "i don't like him". the knicks used to be the most professional franchise and now it loks like a debacle. there could be some reprecussions because of this because of the many lb supporters over the decades. it will be interesting to see what happens.
though there is some positives. i am looking forward, like always, to the season. i don't know how i feel in january but now i can't wait until november 1. with that said, i think thomas is the best coach for this team. he is not a good x's and o's coach and he is the worst coaching under pressure or crunch time but he is a patient instructor who will teach the young kids how to play. frye and curry should have a better year this year. i think marbury will to because it seems he will have a chip on his shoulder. looking at this roster, this is a talented team on paper. i am glad thomas is making subtle moves and not panicing with trades (so far). the marbury/francis experiment will be interesting because brown hardly used that. i think thomas will put out the best talent possible as much as he can. i mean he is starting the season on the hot seat with another brutal november/december schedule (no love from the nba officials, bastards
). i still think this is a talented enough team to compete for a playoff spot. however, a LOT of teams have improved so it will be interesting.
