I didn't say that at all. The question was irrelevant to that particular conversation so I addressed your response accordingly.


How was it irrelevant?! :-?

You incorrectly correlated a Second Round Pick situation under the OLD CBA to a Lottery Pick under the NEW CBA.

You also easily dismissed the Jah discontent with Porzingis' PERCEIVED discontent.

It seems you're just looking to pass blame onto KP just for sh*ts and giggles. :lol:

--Mags


No I didn't, I compared one rookie screwing over his team to another rookie possibly screwing over his team in the future. CBA had nothing to do with it.

So you're bashing KP for calling the team out after 2 utterly shi**y seasons and saying that winning is paramount for him, and yet you want a guy who cries after a loss because he hates to lose and wants to win? :D Well, KP hates losing as well. :D


I think KP's shown he's got some maturing to do. If he's frustrated with the team's progress and the "dysfunction," then you don't skip the exit interview, YOU GO TO IT and voice your concerns to management. :lol: Obviously, the Knicks don't want to see this kind of acting act by its future star player. As I've said before, I think Melo's been KP's ear a lot. Especially down the stretch when they were both sitting together whispering sweet nothings in each other's ear.


I partially agree with you. However there is a huge difference. Everyone here is saying how stubborn Phil is. So if he goes to the meeting and voices his concerns it will achieve nothing if Phil doesn't agree with him.

However now everyone is talking about it and suddenly there is a lot more pressure on Phil and Dolan.

Do you see the difference? I bet he already spoke to Phil during the season when they were chatting numerous times.


What is it that Phil is so stubborn about? Having a offensive system that relies on ball and player movement? If any of our players are unable to buy into that, then they probably should be traded. But I don't think KP would disagree with that aspect of Phil's "stubbornness" if you asked him. San Antonio has an offensive system based on player and ball movement. So does Golden State. Isn't that who we want to be?

I wouldn't worry about what everyone is worried or concerned about. That's just the ny media selling papers and click bait. I'm in the middle of reading 11 Rings. You should read it, it's great. I also had the opportunity to grow up watching the Knicks since Phil's rookie year. I watched or listened almost every game that season and understand where Phil is coming from. Of course, you folks saw him predominantly as a coach and it's hard to argue against what he did in those years.

really good article about one of if not the most enviable franchise in the NBA.

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/19154060/nba-san-antonio-spurs-miss-beat-losing-tim-duncan


i can imagine how many lames would have been callin for pop's head, or for timmy to get traded when the spurs started 6-8 that first championship season if they were the knicks.

And predicting Knicks fans were going to turn on one of their own is like predicting I'm going to take a huge dump tomorrow morning.

Well...considering the changes to the CBA prevents that now, and again, you're comparing a second Rounder to a first Rounder... :thumbsup:

It is an interesting read for a few reasons, but the one thing that stuck out to me was his description of what it was like to get recruited by Pat Riley. You can tell that Pat builds the entire culture of the organization around the pitch.

I wonder if Phil brings that kind of gravitas to the situation.

Also, Waiters said that there wasn't a single soul in Miami who was going to tank.


World Class Shape.

I remember that about Riley. His Knicks (and Van Gundy's) were always that. It's something I wonder about with this crew.

Never really understood why folks hate riley. Riley is the man, and I have no doubts that if he were here, the Knicks would have a title under their belt with him as the exec.

Easily. Riley is a pimp as an exec and as a coach.
