You and many others here sound like children hurling the ice-cream Mommy bought against a wall crying, “I wanted more scoops!”

Even if we lose in the second round, this is the first Knicks team since the Sprewell and Camby acquisitions that’s built the right way. Might as well enjoy and cut out the childish behavior.


I thought I was trippin bruh, you were the one who started mentioning 90s teams like Spree and Camby, why you pointing the finger at me for saying I mentioned 90s teams?! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I was just going off your vibes bro damn lmaoo

I think your vibes are your own problem man. I don’t know why you’re going off the way you are, but it may also have to do with the unreasonable expectations on display here. I will still enjoy this season, enjoy the winning, continue to see the improvement from last year, and deal with losses to teams further in their process. We are not built to win a championship right from scratch as that simply isn’t how things work in this league. This isn’t just some job where all you have to do is put in effort, it’s a professional competition where the field is very advanced and talented, so you cannot simply outwork everybody around you. That is also why this coach won’t be fired in the middle of the winningest season in thirty years - that’s what I call a childish notion. A blowout here or there is certainly not what puts a smile on my face, but contrary to what you say with so much passion, blowouts are indeed part of the modern NBA. You may not like it, but that’s an unreasonable assessment on your part. Once they’re all healthy and jelling, and deep enough to finally bring Hart or Robinson off the bench, they may even go all the way - until then I’ll still enjoy the ride and reserve my judgment. This is not yet a finished product like the other top teams. However, that’s no reason to cry but for optimism.

I’m very happy for you and how your story went, but I didn’t ask for the info. I’ve got my own reasons rooted deep within myself why I won’t respect half-assing or lazy effort from people around me, but I’m also not fooling myself: I control what I can control and the NBA is not part of it. I won’t cross boundaries or get upset where it’s none of my business, which is what I also asked you to respect. I’m enjoying the life I built to the fullest and I’m thankful that all of even my wildest dreams came true. So I’ve never settled, that idea even makes me laugh, but I’m asking you to mind your own business here. Good luck.

For the record, Sprewell and Camby went to the Finals. The other Ewing teams, even though I respect their attitude, likely couldn’t hang with this current squad and neither could these losing players Melo or Marbury or Randle, for example. It’s a good time to be following the Knicks.

The Cavs built nice depth. Wade is a good player, and Hunter, Okoro and Jerome can all play.

I remember catching a few college games with Ty Jerome a few years back. I thought he was a baller and I was surprised to see him struggle his first few years in the league. It's nice to see him find his footing and carve out a role on a contender.

I loved the signing of Strus a year ago too. What they needed was role players who are fine with spotting up and doing the dirty work. And they can stagger Mitchell and Garland and always have elite shot creation on the court.

They upgraded their bench and their core starters had 3 years to play together. If we judged them when Donovan Mitchell first got there it did not look too great. We need to stagger our bench so they dont get blown out. The Cavs bench is like when we had the luxury of IQ, Josh Hart, Deuce and IHart

Even Levert the guy they traded to get Hunter, would be an improvement for us


To be honest....it might help to substitute someone in for OG who can dribble the basketball. More specifically...dribble the basketball WHILE simultaneously moving his feet in a walking or running motion
