We have talked about talented players gone soft.
Isiah has over the years constructed his knicks with talented cast offs.
So has the Warriors. They happen to have the right coach at this moment to keep a bone head team lose.
Last nite they could not finish Dallas off and Stephan Jax went soft. Again.
Talent wise they have it over the Mavs and Nellie can use his Jedi mind tricks to some extent.
The mavs have their own self esteem issues the have to combat, but last night they showed a lot but finishing strong. And the Warriors showed they are bone heads.
The warriors and the knicks have some similarities in how the team is constructed using young athletic players.
While its fun to watch Im not sure its a lasting proposition on how to best build a team.
We have seen this in the suns the last few years (sans boneheads)and the team with defense and a halfcourt presence usually prevails.
The Warriors faulted when it got tight.
Dallas A 67 wins team has yet to win on GS court, who did you say was mentally soft ?
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.
