We have a great looking team to root for. Donte/Julius/RJ/IQ/Grimes and every other player from those teams are gone except for Hopalong Hillbilly. Now we are looking to the future with a championship level contender. I would hope the board could rally together around that and leave all the nonsense in the past. Ball busting is fine but, let's get on board and enjoy this instead of acting like battered wives all the time. It's been a generation since we have had this type of team.
Not directing that at you. This post and the overall attitude on this board needs to change. It's time we all unite and pick on Mitch and shams!

I really don't care about losing Donte that much as I believe in this team and the FO which has done a remarkable job. I love upgrading Randle with KAT so that's a big plus to me. The FO injected new blood with Kolek, Hukporti and Dadier without missing a beat. I'm not worried about our bench which I think has lots of potential this season. You know I'm a glass half full guy. I feel sorry for the folks who only feel animated by team misfortunes and seem unable to enjoy our successes. We're in the mix for a title this year. Let's get it!

I understand the national media and people outside looking in that they could see drama but Knicks fans should know better.
Last season Donte slap every player when they had that anonymous players' poll about people not wanting to play for Thibs. He was calling everyone out about how Thibs work them to death and that was far from the rumors. He was also the one that said that everyone in this locker room should thank Thibs because most of them were having career years.
Look at his past and current players, there's a strong loyal group around him. Garnett, Perkins, D-Rose, Taj, Noah, Butler, Hart, DDV, etc. all these guys have a certain Type A personality in them. So if you're soft, Thibs aint for you.
