How can someone who is so average he a locker room leader lol... Good ridden e to the most over rated center in the league. He also messed with stat and Melos development ... I always thought stat should be the one getting all those pick and rolls instead of brick hands Tyson .... Tyson = over rated trash chem killer .... Dude still hasn't learned to dribble, pass , shoot, that's a lot of the game he didn't have a clue on... Can't wait to see all the fans in Dallas complain about him this upcoming year... Thanks for getting us a Greek freak,early bird,Larkin,Sammy,and caldron... So in that realm you weren't completely useless!

He had to go and trade was great for us.
But not because he is trash but because Knicks are trash.
We need to get better by all means possible.
Tyson is on other team so I do not care much what he is/was.
He will show it this year if anybody cares.

Lets face it as much as i love the knicks we have had plenty fo embarrassing moments since 2000. We have been a losing team for the most part as well. Point is guys like Lin Gallo and Tyson all did good things for us and i wish them well but lets move on and focus and finally getting a good team in new York.

Agreed. The thread title should be "UK posters can't let it go"

Phil made his comments in June. Tyson just responded three months later. It actually is all over the papers right now.

F this guy, seriously. God forbid he ever looked in the mirror. Too much for some people I guess...For the money, he was a let down of the highest order. Let's recap -- failed in the playoffs. That's the first thing that comes to mind. EPIC FAIL against Indy in the playoffs when we really needed him. Everytime you turned around this "man" was hurt and/or sick...He got owned by Roy Hibbert -- OWNED!!! -- and then refused to fess up to it after that series concluded. After a performance like that, a real all-star/team leader would've said flat out, "I stunk. The Knicks pay me rediculous money to come through in that situation and I stunk up the joint." Never heard that. All we heard was the opposite -- that it wasn't his fault; he was sick, etc.. And let's not forget too: like Woody or not -- this guy failed his coach going public with whatever gripes he had (can't even remember now -- what was it again -- that we switched too much on defense, right?). True leaders don't do that to their coach. They call team meetings to clear the air and rally around their coaches and teammates...If Phil was even referring to Tyson with his chemistry comments (he probably was), Chandler going public there had to have had a lot to do with what Phil meant. Again, no looking in the mirror. No accountability...Last yr, we had terrible chemistry all year long and although I'm not gonna put it all on his shoulders, Tyson Chandler never did anything about it. At least not that we know of...Now all we read about is how he's been organizing exercise workouts in some Dallas parking garage somewhere with his new team. LMFAO...

I read on a blog somewhere the other day something to the effect that Tyson was "a better defender and shot-blocker than what we have now." Are you kidding me? FALSE. Just not so...I thought he was a highly overrated defender overall and come on -- the man was no shot-blocker. If he really was the defensive guru he's always been made out to be, then he wouldn't have had anything to say about switching -- a real defensive POY would've said, "no problem---if one of my teammates gets beat, I'm there to take care of it." Not only that -- going to the papers with his complaints was just wrong -- he publicly assassinated his head coach...And then on top of all of it -- the man's been in the league forever and still has no offensive game to speak of. I mean did I get everything?

Tyson's mad? Infuriated?!? Gimme a f-in break...Good riddance guy.

Look Im not defending Tyson at all. I said the same things that some are saying. For example he complained about others instead of taking some blame and he played poorly especially in big games. However some take it personal when there is any sort of criticism toward the knicks. like I have said before the Knicks are my favorite sports team BUT im also not afraid to be critical when they deserve it. In this case they don't but there have been plenty of other times they did.
