Let’s make the playoffs this year.

Why THIS year?

There aren't gonna be any crowds. No MSG excitement. Top-heavy draft class.

If there was ever a year NOT to be good and make the playoffs, it'd be this one.


It's only 72 games in 5 months. It's fast. We won't suffer too much with losses and bad play...

Tanking is better than trying to win with WB...


Tanking didnt help us this year LOL but I’m still looking foward to the draft can’t believe it’s finally here

No, we rationalize it and talk about how Westbrook's gonna teabag KD at the rim.

Sounds good to me :lol:

I will not entertain the idea the Knicks are seriously considering Westbrook, it's click bait. There is no way to build a playoff winning team around a player making almost $45mil a year, the supposed cap guru Rose hired has to be aware of this.

Either way you're corny - and you never answered a simple question. Do better.

Are you suggesting that cleaning and making a sandwich is woman's work? That's sexist, you should examine your biases.

Ugh. “Tanking” is not what we did, and nor it should be the goal.

The goal should be to develop our own talent while creating a stable culture of winning. The goal should not be A) overpaying role players to be fugazy headliners (Randle) or B) burying recent lotto picks behind journeymen rentals or C) fighting and clawing for 5 extra wins in the last meaningless weeks of the season to drop to 8 from top 3 or D) firing the umteemth regime in 20 years and starting over yet again.

To say this team “tanked” totally ignores the reality that Dolan’s minions went for the 8 seed at the expense of developing its own draft talent and maximizing its future draft capital.

This team was never competing for no damn 8th seed though not with the pieces we had people thought maybe randle would continue to improve and become a #1 which we know he told was going to be his role.but that was really it there was no expectations on this team the not signing KD and kyrie and the negativity surrounding the team is what sparked the change
