We lost to Kevin Durant & the Zebras/refereees. Durant is becoming a great player.

Thunder a great team to be I hope they win 50 and surprise some in playoffs. However please lets not ordain yet Durant OR my man R.Westbrook, Green and Harden as Bird, Mchale, Parish OR Magic Johnson, Worthy and Jabbar as far as REFERREE calls in game for respect calls.

You can throw in the great Jordan and Pippen also for earned referree whistles.

Going on to the NY Knicks this summer we dunno whom we'll get as FA in July 2010. Which studs ? will be Knicks in Sept. 2010.

We also as true Knick fans wont knom whom we'll add to our team as FA in 2011, 2012 since NY will have $$money to spend also.

But we'll have this time, our time to make some real noise. NBA and sterns can have refs and teams get ALL calls at MSG all they
want right now. Soon that will change back.

Do you Recall when Knicks did deal to get players involving C.Mobley ? whom had to retire He is still a contrac I believe knicks still has but recall STERNs NBA denied the team's application for a disabled player exception on Cuttino Mobley, who was forced
to retire because of a potentially life-threatening heart condition. Does anyone have good answer why NYK could not get exception
then ?

Only in David 'lame' Sterns NBA is knicks made to be irrelevant and Sterns is part of that.

I know I'm shooting off at the mouth in Knicks best interests but we all know Sterns never ever DID NYK any favors around here.
Once upon a time NY tried to sign a ABA stud name George McGinnis prior to David Sterns being commish in NBA.

Knicks got penalized and overturned their too! McGinnis one of All pro stars of ABA became a 76ers and played with Julius Erving a few yrs and few NBA Finals runs.

Only the NY Knicks has NO LUCK when it comes to NBA well being. We been stuck with Owner James Dolan. As much as we disdain Dolan
we give him bit of credit for getting Donnie Walsh. Verdict is out still on Walsh but he got us in right direction.

As far as NBA the entire NBA can do these lucrative deals and trades but Knicks get no love. I know much of problems around here is all DOLAN whom knows no basketball.

I won't blame the regime before Dolan cause we had some of the best Patrick Ewing yrs we've ever seen coming up a little short
although STERNs screwed Ewing in the Miami Heat series comeback playoffs. The Patrick ewing "Coming few steps off bench" rule
for a nba fight. Absurd..

Speaking of Miami do you recall when Mr Zo Mourning had to retire or leave ? Cause of the heartfelt kidney illness. That his close to my heart since my dad passed from that.

However NBA granted HEAT exceptions for $$$ and didnt Morning soon return when healthy back to Miami Roster ?
You believe STERNs would have allowed that for NY Knicks ? I dont think so

Going to discussio of July 1, We are in $$Cap heaven. We will be Cap mini-heaven part2 the season after when Eddy Curry
$12 mil comes off the books.

All in all NY has a chance, its fans to get GOOD QUICK and became sorta relevant in NBA again a tiny bit.
We'll be back its coming soon. Right on top Atlantic Division.

There is nothing Mr "biased' Sterns and folks whom hate Knicks like chuckmaster Charles Barkley can do or say about it
All the negative will become positive after July 1 and we fan cant wait !

Take that !! NBA and Mr Sterns
Guess when Mike Jordan left the game sterns needed to keep himself relevant, especially since Mr Jordan made David Sterns whom is
Mr Anti-Knick.

If anyone can find the article go for it because those comments he made sounded like he was directly involved in the cleanup of the Knicks.

And if you think about it.... Walsh, Mike, and their 'people' were recommended by Stern to Dolan.

I actually think Stern is on our side to return to greatness.

Stern is a business man and a lawyer. You don't think that the Knicks being a good team again is great for the league and for revenue? It most certainly is. Stern knows this and that's why Stern has been involved behind closed doors with the Knicks being rebuilt - dumping Larry and Isiah - dumping Steve Mills - all the idiots that destroyed our team over the past decade. They're all gone. And you can bet Stern had a hand in this.

The NBA doesn't have a profit sharing system like the NFL. The Knicks only need to not be a joke to make a profit.

No?

Have you heard of the luxury tax and what happens to it?

Stern couldn't care less about a team in a primary market? Really? Wrong.

He has a vested interest in the Knicks turning things around. Why on earth do you think he's been so involved with out decision making the past 2-3 years now?

Larry...Isiah...hiring Walsh, Mike. If you don't think Stern has been involved in this then you haven't been paying attention.
