The minute you accept losing, you loss and no one respects a loser.
Not important if you or I accept or deny losing.
I accepted our next coach is David Blatt months ago.
I hoped Knicks would have a remarkable improved season.
The reality of preseason media guess we don’t make the playoffs is more accurate then your dour outlook or my foolish optimism.
Neither of us are on the bench waving our towels asking “Coach” to be back in the game.
As I say every off season the wins and loses tell the tale by itself. A team losing with a new GM and just one year on the contract rarely survives.
If you must, stand up on the scorers table and shout to the world if and when Jeff gets relieved of his coaching duties. 11 coaches in 18 years. 9 if we don’t count Herb William or Rambis. Interim really don’t count in my book.
I’m not really celebratory giddy as might be knicks1248 because I don’t know who our decision process and who the replacement would be. An evangelical homophobe paranoid adulterer who “Installs toughness” is not a remarkable improvement. For those trianglephobes, Blatts modified Princeton offense might be tainted with the patina of the Triangle offense. The young assistants in the league with no headcoaching experience are always attrative because they bring no baggage with the. Except for Fiz. OPen concept hires always fascinate. Doc Rivers also looms but will command big money and a big ego. Really, he’d be better staying in LA where the rebuild is actually further along then in NY. Maybe Ballmer wants a new face and Doc wants a new contract here. Not my idea of improvement.
Naturally new coach, there will be new players, and it will be ok. Until it isn’t.
