we need to get that pheonix suns' "just don't give a f ck" attitude. while on the treadmill today (yes, i'm still sticking with the training regimen), i put on knicks/spurs game 5 from my dvr. knicks lost but spree went nuts. anyways, what i got from that game is that team didn't give a f ck. they just went all out. pho plays the same way this year but on the flip side - all offense/no defense. you score on us, FU, i'm coming back to score on you.

alot of this comes from the players but we really need one guy with that attitude in the starting lineup. i've never seen a collection of SOFTER players in my history watching this team. no fire. only guys are jyd and malik - and they're 20 min players. you almost want to go after toine with the MLE b/c he brings that RABID, JDGAF attitude that this team needs.

can a coach bring that? i think he can but it also has to come from the players. krazy eyes hasn't been krazy in years. ariza is reckless abandon - but he gets ZERO minutes. craw is soft as pancakes and marbury isn't the leader yet to do that (that's my major knock on him).

we need to get 3 all out hustle players in the draft AND WE NEED TO PLAY THEM. we need to change the culture of the team, and at this point, i wouldn't mind bringing in someone rabid like toine to inject some life into this dead team.

we need PLAYERS that don't give a f ck...we had those in Spree & Camby back in '99...2 guys who were real catalysts for this team...right now all we have is JYD & a still learning Trevor Ariza who are catalysts in that regard...the type of players that come in, throw their bodies around & just don't give a f ck like you're talking about...Isiah needs to bring in more players like that...a Ruben Patterson isn't going to win us any titles, but he's a start...throw in a shotblocker like a Dan Gadzuric, or Chris Anderson to come off the bench (also players who don't give a f ck when they play, they just play hard)...w/that you have a nice athletic bench who can come in & inject this sorry team w/some MUCH needed energy & don't give a f ck attitude.

no- its us fans that need an attitude adjustment and we need to stop caring and realize that until dolan sells this franchise and Houston's & probably Marbury's contract are over, this team isn't ever going to matter again.

I agree with that. Isiah can luck out and win the lottery, or finish in the top three, but unless he does, he is spinning his wheels while collecting a big check, and b.s.ing the fans.

let me correct myself...we actually do have players that don't give a f ck...only problem is, they don't give a f ck about competing.
