I hate to say it, but these losses don't hurt. I've finally been conditioned to accept losses like we're experiencing in this series.

We’re undersized, under-muscled, under-talented, under-everything. We have a losing record. A painfully stagnant offense. An unhealthy reliance on the jump shot. We struggle to rebound and score in the post.

Losing to the Bulls and Rockets was painful.

Losing to the Nets is the expected outcome for this team. Any W we get in this year’s playoffs will be a stolen one. I’ll start feeling the pain again when we are capable of earning wins.

Until then we absolutely deserve displays like this...

Let him celebrate, he deserves it. But he should also realize that this is not a great Knicks team, and he is not the next Michael. If the Nets do make it out of the East, they are in for a healthy spanking.

The Nets and their fans will soon be treated to another dose of the kind of pain we suffered in the 90's.

to me this last loss hurt much worse because we played well enough to win but could not score. We held them with out a FG for 10 minutes at one point. No poin in playing what if in games 1 or 2 but I believe 100% if we had TT or Houston we win this game and can get back into the series.

The ultimate stinger in last night's loss is this:

Free Throws Made 11
Free Throws Attempted 22

They lost by 3 -OUCH

Yea but Kmart did his damage showing how much the knicks suck and responding to the comments of "we want the nets"... the knicks sure got the nets alright.

we had a healthy TT for most of game 1 and we were down +20 something when he went out. Im sure having TT and H2) wouldve helped to some degree[although not defensively] but thats like saying if the Nets had Alonzo Mourning healthy--hes just a tad better than Jarron Collins. We have a 100mm dollar payroll and we have player depth most teams dont have. This crying from some knick fans is brutal. Have some pride and take it like a man. We had a real team in the 90s, we had guys who played a certain style of basketball and our talent was twice as good. We are not as good now, we have no style of play, we dont play good consitent defense--its NOT a good team. It hasnt proven jack. Bill Parcells-you are what you are and we are a 39-43 regular season team which was blown out of the water against a team which wasnt even playing good ball before the playoffs. They killed us in game 1+2 they held a 13 point lead with 10 minutes remaining and started to hot dog and we started to hit shots and grab the momomentum. Show somw guts and go win a game and dont fcn cry about some irrelevance about the shot clock. thats baby stuff

Morning made the comeback for his future financial security.
He was a great center.. and he knew he could have found a team willing to gamble.
UNfortunately fo rthe Nets they did'nt call his bluff...
Good for him... He gets free courtside seats for the playoffs..
And millions upon millions for wearing a suit to games..
