We'll see tonight @ Chicago. I promise you. NY isn't leaving without a WIN @ 4-1 overall.

As I'm an equal opportunity busybody ... man ... slow the roll.

60?

This is why we can't have nice things.

Why we can't have nice things?

We've sucked for damn near 20 years. I miss my childhood days of being CONFIDENT in my Knicks squads.

And this current squad is A+ exciting for me. A team worthy of being CONFIDENT in and excited over.

To each our own but I'm not a hindsight is 20/20 type of fan. Maybe you are, but I'm not. So slow your roll on writing this NYK team off because at the age of 36 I know an awesome team in the makings when I see one.

I think a 50 win season would be good ... progress ... a positive season. If they got more in them, great. If not, cool too.

But in your words, that'd be "writing them off," which is your pejorative description of anything less than 60 wins.

YOU are writing this team off if they don't meet your skipping the line, lofty hopes.

Not me.

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Nah...

Last year (if a regular 82 game schedule) we were on pace for 50 wins. During Tom Thibs 1st season at that.

No it isn't.

It's a 46-47 win pace.

3-4 wins isn't insignificant.

And I don't think you quite understand what I'm saying.

I'm not predicting 50 wins.

But then after the additions of...

A.) Kemba Walker.
B.) Evan Fournier.
C.) Mitchell Robinson returning.
D.) And more importantly? So much more player/coach/team chemistry?

A-D combined ='s more than a 10 game improvement.

This is a 60+ win team. And you don't even know it yet. But I do.

WE ARE DEEP IN TALENT. ABSOLUTELY LOADED.

You will answer a simple, fair question?

Will 50-52 wins be underachieving in your view?

Yes or no?

Yes. Because we were on pace for 50 wins last year and we've improved SO MUCH over the offseason where 50 wins is a guaranteed must this year.

#1 D last year. During Thibs 1st season as Knicks HC.

• KEMBA WALKER.
• EVAN FOURNIER.
• THE RETURN OF MITCHELL ROBINSON.
• R.J. BARRETT NOW A 3RD YEAR PLAYER.
• BOTH IMMANUEL QUICKLEY AND OBI TOPPIN NO LONGER ROOKIES.
• SO MUCH MORE PLAYER/COACH/TEAM CHEMISTRY.
• A TRUE ALL STAR IN JULIUS RANDLE.

Our team from starting 5 to backup unit is DEEPER THAN WE'VE EVER BEEN.

Serious Question

We're 4-1 here in 2021-2022.

Do you know what the Knicks of 1992-1993 were after 5 games?

4-1.

I dont see a 50 win team. I see the DEEPEST KNICKS TEAM I'VE EVER WITNESSED and I know 100% 60+ wins is a real fan goal to have and I wont let you tell me otherwise.

Because I've waited many of years for a team as DEEP as this one. And I'm loving it.

I called 60+ wins heading into preseason and I meant it.

And fans don't have goals, they have wishes.

I called 60+ wins heading into preseason and I meant it.

No, I get it, you've claimed is you board thing.

And watch what happens when the fairly typical, almost inevitable 3 game losing streak happens.

That I shouldn't be sky high on a team coming off a playoff birth with the #1 Defense during only Tom Thibs year #1?

That I shouldn't be sky high for a 3-0 undefeated preseason team followed by a 4-1 REGULAR SEASON start?

That we don't have 60 win potential?

What are you really even trying to tell me?

What I'm trying to say you just said yourself.

60 wins is RARE.

If they have "60 win potential" that's their ceiling.

Cool, I can roll with that.

But you can't stop declaring 60 wins is their floor.

I do believe 60 wins is our floor because I've been watching Knicks basketball since I was 5 years old 1990. I'm now 36 years old and at full health I've never witnessed an NYK team as DEEP as this 2021 team.

And what does 3 potential loses in a row mean?

That 1992-1993 team had 3 loses in a row and started off the season 4-4 after 8 games.

2021's Knicks WILL NOT have 4 loses until at least our 20th game.

You'll see.

60 wins is the floor? Dude you got me rolling now!

Anyone who states "we've sucked for 20 years" and then spends paragraphs posting things in CAPS about hysterical statistics is quite amusing.

Hey, at this point I'm hoping for 81-1.

I read NYMENTALITY’S hype man posts like a movie production comming attraction trailer. The deep super intense voice over dramatizing. Almost as the worse the movie was, the greater the hype!

He as some repeating traits:

1. He is feeling well now for a 36 year old. Have to assume. He was not?
2. bit of a narcissist, thats ok. This is the best/deepest team he has seen on knicks, thus it has to be 60 games.
3. Likes to list the roster. Thinks we don’t know it.
4. Can’t hate on a enthusiasm. Might be delusional, but why ruin it for they guy.
5. If its comes to be, he might be insufferable bragging for a while as he knew it all along. He will be right, but the narcissist won’t see it that way.
6. If he is wrong, He might want to visit Dr Marv for new prescription.
