Fact: Lin inspired this team to make the playoffs

Fact: Melo and Amare wouldnt couldnt have done the same themselves

so, LOL at you.


Fact

Lin is a turnover machine and had nothing to do with the run Melo went on to end the season, which is the reason we made the playoffs. Take away Melo, keep Linsanity, and we do not make the playoffs.

You guys are pathetic. It is sad really. I guess this must have been what this board was like when we let Frank Williams leave?


This is a complete joke of a post.

Melo carried us to the playoffs last year guys!!!

KnicksGod wrote:Unbelievable that the conspiracy theories about Isiah being involved are looking accurate.

You could see Isiah loving JR and thinking Lin is a backup or whatever.

What a bunch of mental midgets. The more drugs JR does and idiocy he spews, the more the idiots in our front office like total morons like JR Smith.

How sad and stupid can you get.


While it wouldn't surprise me, there's no reason to think Isiah is behind everything.

It's clear who the common factor always is: James L. Dolan.

The man who let Isiah do whatever he wanted until the league basically forced IT out. The one who undermined Donnie Walsh for not flattering him. It's always been about Dolan and his handlers first.

The first job of the PG is to run the offense.

Lin did that WAY better than Felton


He also kept his dribble alive along the baseline/in the paint, got into the paint MUCH better, finished better, and had a much better jumper.


He's just a better PG. There is no real way around it.

Are we doomed with Felton? No. But I do think our ceiling is lower.

Anyone look at the FB comments left behind on the Knicks summer league game? Its pretty hilarious. Im sure whoever does PR for the Knicks is gonna have a **** load of work to do. Wow. What a disaster. This team has very low-characters guys and it really shows in times of adversity.
