I certainly do. Though 1993 hurts. 1994 hurts even more.

And yet, amusingly, the fans and media spent most of their time criticising them for exactly the same things they do now. Oh, the Knicks are a better team without Ewing! Ewing needs to come off the bench! Ewing is a selfish player! Allan Houston is too passive! He sucks at defense! John Starks is too inconsistent and is a chucker! LJ can't play with Ewing! We needs a PG! Chris child's sucks! Charlie ward sucks! John Wallace is a future all star, can't believe we traded him! Fire Van Gundy! He cant coach offense! The offense is too predictable- it's just dump it to Ewing! Ewing is a choker! Pat Riley betrayed us!

Ha those were good times, but we did spend more time complaining about stuff we're still complaining about rather than appreciating what we had. Ewing in particular got constant criticism and little praise back then.

I remember starting 3rd quarter.. screen in screen.. then.. BAM.. full on white bronco, going steady on the road for 3-4 hours.. My buddies stopped making fun of me (they're all Lakers fans) because they could tell I was fuming inside.
