Root for our guys no matter what!

There has to be a reciprocation of loyalty here. I pay for single team NBA pass for the Knicks, before that I was paying for MSG until I moved. I show loyalty by buying a pass. I question wether the team even give a crap. They put out such nonsensical product out there. The Knicks biggest problem is that they never really had loyalty to the fans. They can’t develop stars and they can’t even get true superstars in trades or free agency.
They sell tickets half the fans scalp the ticket to some guy visiting from Europe, China or where ever just so they can see Madison Square Garden and Penn Station. I’m just tired brother of the Knicks there is no wow factor left. The Wow factor has been dead for 23 years now.

YOu spend 100 bucks on a pass. If your transactional on wins and not the event thats on you.
If you expected more, thats on you. I said it 100 times, nobody had them any more than looking at the play in game.

I scored some killer seats for Friday’s game. Road game in Charlotte. Costs more than the season pass I have. A lot.
Then there is parking and over priced food.
My choice. Nobody putting a gun to my head.
Im rooting for my team. Rooting for RJ to get his **** together. Rooting for Thibs and the knicks players and team to succeed.

They might not win on Friday. I know that. IM as frustrated as the rest of you. Im not rooting for mediocrity. I root for these athletes who are humans who are in the top league on the planet were only 1% of ball players get to step on the floor. Some will succeed, others will falter and be gone. More will be drafted and new dreams will be made for them.

Fans? WE get to pick and choose our spots. Nobody puts a gun to our heads. They don’t owe us anything but their best. Sometimes thats not enough to succeed.

RJ earned that contract over a 3 year period. I don’t know why he has regressed thus far.
IM rooting for him to get it together.

I was told by most Knicks they don’t want a franchise talent. They rather have coy Thibs playing his vets. And those who agreed stayed quite. Funny how the entire board is now changing or finally speaking up. I was on this hill by myself and said, no worries……the fans will speak louder than me eventually.

Time to sit back and watch this soap opera crash.

Dolan and his caa buddy buddy system ain’t working.

C'mon man. I've been on team tank after the first month. The organization clearly has no plans of intentionally tanking until it's mathematically eliminated from the play-in, so it makes no sense to keep harping on it.

No need to tank. It’s a very deep draft. I’m a big Wemby fan but I’m concerned his body might fall apart same way KP’s did

Phil jackson said it best about KP. He might be too tall for basketball.

when you look at how he finished the 2nd half of last year and his year to year improvements its not unreasonable. His play this year is worrisome.
We don't know the final trade offer nor if it was acceptable to Ainge. Have to go back to the momement. Rumor had it Ainge was playing us. Or, was resigning RJ the defacto end? Or did we resign him when we knew we were done with negotiating with Jazz.

Did we know RJ would start out this bad?
Tell me how the other 3.7 years left on his contract will play out? He won't be 23 until next summer.

Need to make sure they draft in the top 10. This team doesn't just need talent. It needs to hit on some game changers.

Giannis, Donovan Mitchell, Jokic, Kobe Bryant —- none drafted top 10

You talk with the knicks?
So you really did dig being the pied piper of the negative? Can't deny it, we have pictures of you on the hill!
where you sitting like the Dali Lhama or Ghandi with some wisdom seeking fans at your feet looking upon you for "Thibian mystique"?
You flat out gloating here, or am I wrong?
Am I gloating for winning? Nope. Im well on record that I bought into the "Struggle for play in" and .500 give our take a game or two is my expectation.
Im just happy to watch a game we win or play well even if we lose.
