With a different coach, things could be worse. Lenny did have them 3 games over .500.

That with out kurt, we could be worse. If we let him walk as free agent, we would not be able to replace his salary as we are over the cap.

Its possible that Isiah has made us the worst team money can buy in history. We gotta live with it.

its possible that things could not have been worse had we not changed gm's or coaches.

It is possible that Laydog would have bought in Marbury anyway. it was Isiah who took Laydogs idea and made it happen.

Isiah made thet deals, so lets just say this is where we are and have to deal with it! So lets not forget that coaching change now might not be a good Idea, and that by playing Allan could help his game, as is playing TT. This sucks, but this is our best chance for them to return to form.

it Sucks we have to rely on Crawford. He should get the hook with erratic play. But not until we have a better solution.

I ain't happy, but I don't know if there is much we can do other than hope the players play better.

Its also possible that Chad Ford was right. Not that really hurts!

Chad Ford was right, I don't see how you can agure with him at this point.

The team is about as healthy as it will be all year, and it is playing terrible basketball.

The season is over really, and I'm not just being dramatic. We have seen what this team can do, and it is clearly not much.

Hopefully they wount go on a meaningless winning sreak late to just miss the playoffs but worsen the lottery pick.
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?

i agree. a stool pigeon is a stool pigeon

how could we be worse when we got albert sweetney just waiting to take the league by storm

i'd have to check that but i'm sure there may have been others who were worser

its possible that things could not have been worse had we not changed gm's or coaches.

this is a no win argument. when the knicks traded for marbury almost everyone said the time is now. forget those picks. marbury is the now
don chaney. lenny wilkens. can one stool pigeon really be that much better than the next one i mean really


It is possible that Laydog would have bought in Marbury anyway. it was Isiah who took Laydogs idea and made it happen.

laydog. i know you are not sitting here trying to uphold for scott layden dude no please tell me you are not

i think it's too late in their careers to expect good defense out of these guys.

it Sucks we have to rely on Crawford. He should get the hook with erratic play. But not until we have a better solution.

crawford is a streaky shooter so i agree with you. we have to accept that he is what he is. he will have his on fire nights and off nights plus he is still young

I ain't happy, but I don't know if there is much we can do other than hope the players play better.

quote of the year.

let me touch on this. when sportswriters talk bad about the team i see posters bash them but when the team plays god awful then those same posters talk bad about the team.
am i missing something

thats ridiculous. This is JC's second game back from an injury, hes not 100% in the groove yet. We were playing better ball in the beginning of the season. as the games go on we will get better as the team gels. You guys are such alarmists. NOt to say this streak isn't horrible, but our 2nd scorer was out for a while. Hes back and once he gets back into the swing of things it will change our whole offense and what we will be able to do. We'll be fine and we will make the playoffs, I'm sure of it.

we dont have any guys that can carry a team. Marbury has had his moments but if TMac can lose 19 straight I'm pretty sure Marbury can also. We do have some guys that score but they dont work well together, and we dont get stops. We are an average rebounding team at best. Or PF plays away from the basket and our SF plays like a girl.

At this point lets not do any trades.. I dont care if we lose 50 games. We are a year away from a getting a reasonable roster. Trade Nazr and cash for a young guy like Swift or Dalembert. Use the lottery pick. Sign Steven Hunter. Let Moochie, Baker, TT, Penny and their collective $38 just walk off into the sunset.

thank you for making sense. once Crawford drops 30 or 40 and is the key reason we won a game(FINALLY) people will be in love with him. I can't believe people have forgotten how many games he won us this year. He also costed us some games but that is why we WERE a .500 team. With him out we are an under .500 team. I agree that Crawford at this point is not an elite SG. He still has a lot to learn but he is the best we got until a trade is made and wecan afford to play him less minutes until he learns.
