Literally a laughing stock nation wide, but hey whatever gets you up to watch them win 29 games this year.

Laughing stock nation wide because the media loves to talk about the knicks. Its hate at the end of the day.This is only news bc he put the knicks in his mouth. Remember that.

that's 100% accurate.

durant saying the reason why is because the nets are more cool and because the younger generation don't remember the knicks being good is total bs because the nets were also just as bad in the same time frame.


Nah


Young fans don't know that the Nets are just Rebranded New Jersey Nets in BYK. That move changed everything. Got out of the swampz of Sopranoland. Before that, 2 Finals runs in the Least notwithstanding, the Nets have been historical laughingstocks just like the Clipps. They used to pump in fake crowd noise (fake noise vs fake news) via loudspeakers all throughout the 90s. It was comedy to hear roaring cheers while fans were visibly all sitting on their hands. I do think he is also correct about the hipness of choosing the non-#1 entity in the city of NY. Same thing happened with Kawhy? Why that's hip, who knows, but at least the Lakers have won 10 championships since the Knicks' last one. ;) Sry, Knicks fans. I empathize with you re: Dolan. Bad owners suck, I know.

I'll say it again, you guys need an all-blue floor to combat the Nets' gray one.

Kyrie Irving grew up watching the Nets during the Jason Kidd/Vince Carter era, which was way better than anything the Knicks have done over the last twenty years.

So you got the Kyrie Irving point, but broheim is not gonna finish his career with the Nets. He's got 2 more teams in him if not more. Dude is a flake.

The challenge of carrying that garbage roster? I don't blame them one bit. Wizards outscored yall 41-17 in the 2nd qtr tonight, a preview of things to come I'm sure.

Its obvious he's still pissed at the fact that the Knicks didn't want to sign him for the max after his injury.

Who cares if most of our fans are holdouts from NJ? That's where we played for our entire history.

Actually they have won a playoff series. As many playoff series have been won in Barclays as in MSG since the turn of the century.

That should give you a clue of how irrelevant the "history of the Knicks" has become. You sound bitter bro.

Brooklyn is way cooler than Manhattan at this point in time. That's where people wanna go and live.
