Brilliant.
I guess that you didn't watch the game.
In this case, the record means nothing.
They're trending up while the Knicks are
floundering still trying to figure it out.
They've got a good young coach, a boatload of picks,
and a good young core that will only get better.
There's no comparison b/n where the two teams are right now. NONE.
I'm a confessed Melo hater x 1000 and it wouldn't be difficult
for me to jump on the Celtics bandwagon after what I saw last night.
I have been a Knick fan for years, but, unlike many of you,
the "once a Knick always a Knick" mentality has gotten old for me.
I like to watch good basketball and I'm tired of 15 years of CRAP basketball.
I found it refreshing to see a young team playing
in your face team defense, hitting the open man, rebounding the ball,
driving to the hoop, and playing within a system.
Have you even considered the the Celtics have AT LEAST 5 young players
wayyyyyyy better than anything that the Knicks have not named melo.
Add the slew of picks for a smart GM to use to that core and they will be scary good.
But, yeah, they're 17-30 so that means they're not much better than the Knicks, right?
SMH.
