i don't disagree w/u on the fact that this offense is so predictable, but that's been the case for years, not just under Isiah... maybe the problem is we don't have a PG who knows how to run one & not the coach's system to begin with? there's a thought.
suckbury is much more destructive then people give him credit for. This guy has had more negative affect than anyone, including Isiah, on the floor and in some cases, off the floor. It's really hard to blame, because Isiah himself is the one who brought all of these people here to begin with. And they all had to deal with headcase on the floor. It's really a combination and one of the worst combinations of player-personel in the NBA. You have just' the right amount of coach-GM-player to create such an atmosphere. I really don't recall anything like this before with an NBA team. I'll say it again. When you look at it for what it really is, the Knicks don't lack in talent as much as they do in stability. One bad apple can have this kind of affect on the entire franchise. Look at the bulls recent woes, starting out with a bad record also. You know their much, much better then that. The Kobe distraction disrupted those guys on the floor. A basketball team is a fragile thing. I think our team is psychologically damaged. And on top of that' the pressures of the New York fan and media? Can you imagine trying to get through all of that and play a decent game of basketball?
I'll never trust this' team again.
