glad we can move on now. Hopefully the people leaving as fans can begin posting in their new teams forums.

The Knicks are better than last season with the guys we brought in so far and I am looking forward to us dominating.

At least we're not stupid enough to get in bed with Madoff.

Why would you admit that?

Not over petty stupidity

this isnt petty stupidity, it is longterm incompetent ownership, no different than the incompetence that lost lebron and will lose dwight

we are losing a guy who played 20 games, yes he was awesome, yes he was a sensation, but hes not lebron, hes not seaver, hes not kareem

this whole yankee fan mentality that a ny franchise must never lose a player is sickening

regardless of the reason, we lost jeremy lin and still have melo and amare.. trying being an orlando fan, or try being a raptor fan

I'm not one of these people who are "woe is me" about this. It is what it is.

There is no good reason for what just happened though outside of, as you said, longterm incompetent ownership.

You don't think this is going to cause distractions? If Felton struggles or Melo struggles or the Knicks start the season 8-15 there will be nobody there to bail them out. There will be chaos in that locker room. Players, fans, and the media will all be pointing fingers looking for someone to blame.

If we don't hit the ground running next season, this franchise is doomed for at least the next 3 years.

Has the Lin fanboy exodus begun yet? It can't happen soon enough. Thanks for taking a crap on our message board for the last few days. Please don't come back. Thanks.

Couldn't wait to say this: if you don't like Dolan's move you have an agenda and you hate the Knicks. (That's what I'm always told)

Good, glad it is over. Some of the mangina crying and ship jumping that was going around on these threads was getting annoying.

Just man up and root for your team, love 'em or hate 'em.

Yeah, it feels like a bad break up though lol. It just wasn't supposed to end like this. All these empty promises..."we'll match if it was a billion dollars" " he's our starting pg" "

God...oh well...
