So good, it deserves its own thread:

The argument>> We just got a coach who is one of hte best in the game, but he's not going to lead us to our first title since Frazier.

The counter-argument>>We should have held out for... ___________________

Can you fill that in for me? That's where I don't get this argument. We should have hired someone who is more unproven? What's Jax's winning percentage in the playoffs? Oh right, he's never coached.

Tommy Thibs is still licking his wounds on the plane back from Cleveland, but I'm sure he's the answer right?

Larry Brown was supposed to be a sure thing and it seemed like he lost his mind the day he walked in the door.

Mike D'Antoni is a huge get for the lowly Knicks. There is no questioning that.

Word.

I guess I just don't get what Isles and Cosmic are freaking about unless they have a better plan to present.

Phil, Riles, and Pop seem like the only coaches that would have more cred than Mike D, and we aren't getting any of them so I'm missing the argument.

If your answer is letting someone like Herb coach out the string while the contracts run out, closing the door on the Knicks for three years and then building from zero which has taken teams years and years to do is not a real answer. Any GM can do that. We hired pros to do better than that.

Why is everyone( excluding Berman and probably Newsday since yesterday) who is paid to analyze sports and basketball questioning it? Why are some bringing up that it is following the same philosophy of the past President and the current owner? Why are some bringing up the point that this team might need longer practices, and to be taught defense? Why are some suggesting that this hire might have been made by the owner?

This is officially going to be an old argument soon. There's nothing else to prove, now that D'Antoni is the official coach.

I put a poll up myself about a couple weeks ago and jax got very little support. And I think we now know why Brown lost his mind, as you put it.
I'll never trust this' team again.

What is your problem and why do you keep mentioning me with Isles? You did it in another thread and failed to reply to me.



Either your ability to comprehend what you are reading is absolutely TERRIBLE or you have a serious problem remembering who wrote what you read.

If you're not going to know WHO I am or HOW I post and WHAT I post, STOP USING MY NAME in such an incorrect and demeaning manner.

Agreed. The numbnut doesn't even remember who writes what on here then goes on the offense against people that didn't even write what he says they wrote.
