It's not the smartest thing to make assumptions about people, especially when it comes to people's usernames. You don't see me questioning your intelligence for having 2 scrubs represent you as your username. I have no intentions on continuing this. I suggest you do the same.

I think what TKF says elsewhere is pretty relevant IMO.

It's legitimate anyway.

He's basically admitting that he's not a Knicks fan anymore. That's a WoW. I like the guy and think he has some legit points.

But it's still interesting. It's worthwhile to chat about if it doesn't get too far or disrespectful.

There's no stalking going on as far as I can tell -- just an exchange of information which is kinda sorta what a message board is about. It's an interesting discussion. Both teams are doing pretty well. It's a good debate and TKF's path here is a juicy topic.

You're the one going around and bringing up quotes from people who don't post here.

Pretty much my thinking as well. He was a big part of this board with strong opinions that I think many respected even if they didn't agree with him. I actually enjoyed reading tkf's take on the game and this team. If anything, I'd actually love for him to be more open minded towards Anthony being on this team so he could get back to posting here.

Yes but how many points does Noah add? Some. He's an excellent passer.

They miss Rose of course.

nah, tkf can stay in denver and smoke all the weed he desires.

it's fine if you''ve grown distant from this team after some of the decisions the front office has made. kg you have openly admitted that.

however the difference between kg and tkf is that tkf openly roots against this team because of melo. you can tell from his posts melo's return to denver was borderline sexually arousing for him (mind you gallo shot 4-13 and 1-8 from 3). he desperately wants this team to fail meaning he is not a fan of the knicks just a fan of his opinion.

kg is man enough to admit he might have been a little off on his expectations for this team and never rooted for them to fail.

I for one don't blame TKF.

I'm the type of an NBA fan who is primarily interested in how front offices are constructing their teams and/or how the players are maximizing their talents. Playing the game the right way is also very important to me as nothing bothers me more than watching players make bad decisions, even if they end up scoring.

When you then have to deal with your favorite team's FO doing such atrocious moves and decisions as the Knicks, it just slowly starts frustrating you, little by little. And when then after so many years you finally start thinking that the team is finally on the right track, building it the right way, something like Amare signing & Melo trade happens ... On some other teams you could at least hope that FO is gonna get replaced, but when by far the main problem is the owner, there's just not much realistic long-term hope.

I still want the Knicks to succeed the most out of any NBA team, however I mostly stopped debating on this forum and even elsewhere, because it just frustrates (well frustrates is too strong of a word) me every time I have to think about the decisions the FO has made in the past and/or that Dolan isn't going anywhere.

It's like watching your loved one constantly making decisions you totally disagree with. First you try debating about it, making things better, but when you see it's not going anywhere, you just start leaving it alone, to save your nerves. :) I guess I like the Knicks enough to not totally dump them, so I still watch almost every game, but I restrain myself of thinking deeply about it. :)

Yeah I just don't care enough about being right to ever root for the Knicks to fail. I came close to feeling that way when Lin left. But never really got there lol. I did stop watching games but hoped they did well from afar. I'm still not watching a lot but from here out, I think the addiction is back.

I guess I'd like to be right about Lin/Gallo/Brandon but not too intensely. If they prove me wrong, good or bad, I'd admit it and chalk it up to a stock that didn't pay off. And try to learn from it in future analyses. Life's too short to pretend you're winning when you're not.

As of now, on those 'Big Three' I don't think I'm too far off at all. But Gallo has had a very good year. Playoffs decide his season.

I think we can all agree that TKF did once love the Knicks.

I think it's interesting -- just from a human psychological point of view -- to try to figure out what he must be feeling when Melo goes off for 90 points, the Knicks win 10 in a row despite being short handed, etc.

It's got to feel weird.

I think it's probably just best to quit your team and kind of come back when you're ready -- sort of the path I've followed. And you can still root for Gallo or whatever, just not the Nuggets really. That's kind of going to create weirdness.

I root for Lin for sure though. Don't really care if Rockets win though.

and that's fine because all your arguments and views are within reason. even though i may not agree if you think lin is better then rubio it's within reason. same goes with if you think the jury is still out on brandon jennings, which i to an extent agree as well.

tkf has openly said that his views on melo wouldn't change if he brought the knicks a championship. he has also said he believes kevin martin and gallinari are better players.

that's not a rational opinion or view that's a spiteful one.

Mike D'Antoni couldn't stand watching this Bulls team.

"We're gonna put Butler at the 5 and Nate at the 4 and open it up and see what happens." (WV accent)

Even Woody for that matter ....

knicks got beat by bulls when they were grossly over achieving. this is a banged up, offensively challenged team that is not as big of a threat to the knicks as the celtics.

only thing i'm taking away from this game is how bad the nets are.

Yeah but for some unknown reason, the Nets just seem to match up really well against them too.
