training camp. But we had losing records. And even to an extent with Larry we had a good preseason. What makes this training camp and preseason any different from the others?

Also does training camp and preseason really have a major effect on how the season is going to go?


Because in the last two years all we have been hearing is, "The Knicks Camp was a success."


So far I think Isiah might be on right track but I have wait and see. Can this team really build chemistry?

training camp means jack. how many teams ever said they had a bad training camp? they all said the same thing to put a positive spin on their season. it is the product on the floor that means something. we will see in february and march how god this team is if they compete for a playoff berth.

Exactly! As we talk about the Knicks the Wizards entire team showed up a month before training camp.

Why Knicks should show up?
They were so distressed last year. Evil man Brown was torturing them. The bad luck of injuries was hunting them. They were fighting to keep their weight under stress pressure. The NY press was throwing mountains of lies on them. The NY fans were booing them. Pure guys. Give them a break.

Because you have a backcourt that really does not know each other. The only way to build chemistry to play together more. Not to mention our schedule in November is a tough one.

Do you think they are better off staying at home and only depending on 4 days of training camp to get ready for a tough season?

The Knicks don't need to practice together. They are bonding through their hatred of Larry Brown. Each player repeats to himself: "We hate Larry Brown! We'll show that Larry Brown what we're made of!" over and over again, and a kind of mind meld thing happens.

Oh, and they also take turns pushing Eddy Curry around in a wheel-barrow. It's a great "team building" exercise.

My kind of guys. Guys who actually want to win! Not our guys. The voluntary camp had only four guys. We can count out dedication so far.

I'll never trust this' team again.

knicks preseason with larry lemondrops = 3-4 record. shortly after larry sez this team has long ways to go. shortly after that knicks start regular season with 5 game losing while treating the most loyal fans in bball with 5-9 november record.

imo, this bs 42 game rotation was nothing more but a exercise in futility

sorry, we did not start with lenny that way

and i cant wait to see what zeke does

Zeke's going to 'hands off' and let them run! Anyone starts trouble, he's going to be pissed and start benching! Thank God!

He will need a lot of chairs at the bench...
