1.) Curdolf the Big Fat Frontcourt needed time to gel together\
2.) Steph needs less talent around him
3.) You can't expect to win in year 4 of a 7 year plan
4.) You can't expect to win in year 7 of a 10 year plan
5.) Goshdamnn Larry Brown
6.) Goshdamnn Scott Layden


I'm sure there will be more........Just win damniiiit
I just hope that people will like me

There will be no excuses. Just wins.

Unless there are injuries, then there might not be so many wins.

Or if the fans boo. That really saps the players' self-confidence, so I'd subtract like 20-30 games if the fans boo.

Or if the refs don't call fouls when Stephon takes it hard to the hoop. That would reduce the number of wins also.

You forgot:

The fans are too rough
The refs don't understand girth
Not enough donuts at practice


Layden is officially off the books. We should agree not to bring him up anymore.

lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

David Lee's decrease in minutes
Renaldo Balkman put on too much muscle
We traded away our best shooter in Nate
Crawford, Lee, Q Rich came back to early from their injuries
Marbury did not take enough shots
Randolph is taking all Curry shots
The Kobe trade rumors messed up the mentality of the team

You can't expect young players to have any form of success.

When every player that he coached here, retires.

Unless of course their children, friends or relatives are a part of the organization. The LB effect could bother them and that could have a trickle down effect to our roster.

1. Steph Doesn't Get Any Lovin From The Refs.
2. Game came down to missed Free Throws.
3. Other teams want it just a little more than we do.
4. We haven't learned how to win yet.

Injuries will be number one
Number two will be learning to play together.

Here is the excuse I'm hoping for- the team had to learn to play under interim head coach Herb Williams after Dolan fired Isiah the day before christmas.

8) Too many night games after days off.
9) Zach misses a bunch of games because he has to attend some wakes at Scores.
10) Curry: "I thought you had him?" Zach: "I thought you had him?"
11) Starbury takes some time off to continue his humanitarian efforts, giving away cheap shoddy sneakers.
12) After missing the first 3 months of the season, the Knicks announce that the REAL diagnosis for Lee's leg injury is that he needs microfracture surgery.
