The only positive to the Brodie Experience would be the peak moments in between the extended troughs. We would likely never get better peak flashes/pops/explosions than our rabid fanbase mixed with a player as physically and emotionally explosive as Russ, in The Garden. Especially when a dude he loathes and has no problem clowning is right across the city.

I'll go as far as to say there would be the potential to have the single greatest instant(s) of Knickfandom coke rush since 2000, outside of actually being good for a chunk of time and competing for a championship. There's potential for those pops to be better than Linsanity, Melo peaks like the CHI game, etc.

But of course there would be a whole lot of coke hangovers, too. Job loss, ducking the repo man, eviction. Wife leaves, kids don't visit. Possible a couple of ODs, and most likely death in the end.

So yeah, don't do it.

Seems like every year, we fill hundreds of pages with hype and sh*t talk about two dozen prospects.

Would be interesting to see some data on which, if any, of you knuckleheads actually know what you’re talking about.

I'm pretty sure we've been linked to the whole first round at some point

Except for Anthony Edwards. Don't think I've seen anything linking us to him.

Watch both get drafted by obscure franchises no one cares about because Silver didn't have the guts to fix the lottery.
