I'm just curious because I've been asking the same thing of myself. The product continually sucks and the guys pulling the strings are hardly endearing figures. James Dolan, in particular, has few redeemable qualities and is the poster-boy for the type of person I detest in my personal life. So why do you still bother with this team?

Papabear Says

I've been with the Knicks for over 50 years through the good and the bad. Why?? Because I'm a Knicks fan growing up around New York.Watching Walt Frazer and Earl the Pearl. I was also a Brooklyn Dodgers fan before they sneeked out of town. I am now a Mets and Rangers fan. I am also a fan of Haley Berry, and Beyonce and Tina Turner and Diana Ross.

I still hope they can turn it around. I have been watching since I was 14 - now 20 years later it's been a rough ride.

I still love them but this season has been brutal.

I've been a Knicks fan since I started listening to them in the 60's. I believe in loyalty to my home team, and have only cheered for them.

I don't support the knicks. I'm a fan of the team. There is a difference. Fuck this current situation. They seriously don't give a **** about us. Orange and blue till I die but this current leadership can suck my dick. I long for a team that can respect the real basketball fans and lifers of this city. This season has been the absolute worse in history and we have had a lot of bad times from Michael ray all the was to Marbury. Fuck this team. But I'm a knick for life. These guys aren't knicks. Us fans are the real knicks not these posers.

I guess I might not word my feelings as politely and delicately as EnySpree but . . . I'll go with what he said.

This is my team that was hijacked by Napoleon. It's not fair one person should have that kind of influence on what should be a winner in a great town.

Love them to death for the last 23 years.
Being a fan means to follow and cheer in bad time, why?
The city
The mentality
Underdog
Toughness

Love he Knicks(not so much those current one's, and management)

I am not supporting this people.
They are a scam, placeholders.

Bunch of bloodsucker suck his d..ck to get paid.
What to support?

answer: because there is nothing like winning in new york.

all kinds of puns intended.

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

Because I'm a sycophant and that wonderful Mr Dolan seems to really reward people like me.

I'm a masochist and bulimic so watching and supporting the Knicks is a real timesaver.
Now the joy of my world is in Zion How beautiful if nothing more Than to wait at Zion's door I've never been in love like this before Now let me pray to keep you from The perils that will surely come

Apparently I love being abused and treated like a Mitch. I really love the Knicks and there are some fond memories of years past that I cherish. I have hope that i'll eventually see a Knicks title and I can't walk away from that. I've brought up my children to be Knicks fans and we watch as a family. It's just too deep in the DNA now. I couldn't switch to another team.

Yeah, support is a vague word. I don't support Dolan with my money. "Hope" might be a better word. I hope the franchise turns things around.

BTW, nobody puts a gun to my head and makes me a fan. Im not mad anymore. I don't have to have Woodsons head to satisfy my anger.

What makes me mad is no matter who mad fans get the teams value continues to rise and the sellouts continue. The team is a financial success no matter what the product is on the floor.

IM not mad at Steve Mills as he did not create this mess (this time), or Grunwald who was Dolans Lackey, or MDA who is a fine coach, or even Isiah as he was just empowered by his boss.

Im not even mad at Dolan anymore because its about filling the seats with fans and he does that.

IM a bit mad at Brooklyn because they disappointed big time this year!!! They could have at least given me something to cheer about!
Knicks first, and then NY teams!

Im not mad anymore. Spring is around the corner. Im heading out west in the morning and going skiing for a week. The jazz have two games this week at home.

Phuch that.

Absolutely not the same script.

The team is not terrible cuz they won 54 games last year with the majority of all the rotation his that played big minutes coming back. We got better talent to mesh in. This season is one of a kind. Don't try and group it with another.

barry white, blacklight posters, and hennessey have to figure in there somewhere....

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%
