This should be stickied for easy access (or exit) for the Linsanity crowd. Not kidding.

Because this is a Lin thread, it's like a foreign embassy, you can't touch the people inside. :lol:

Cuz were not going to follow those stories all year long. And it is sickening to have Lin as the top agenda of discussions. And just like those who diss me for rooting for the team in orange and blue. I will criticizes those who follow another player that isnt on the team. It makes this board look like heart broken teenage girls whose mad at daddy cuz they cant see their boyfriend anymore.

Dont use the "why im contributing" line. Because my absence wont make a difference.

Watching them throw tantrums is hilarious....

When player does what he did, how he did it, it's just not going to go away because the owner got his feelings hurt.

A bum who genuinely tried to tailor his game to his team's needs in his rookie season in Golden State, and in his first 9 games as a Knick. Then he decided, "**** it, I'm gonna just play my game" and averaged 18ppg and 7apg the rest of the way? In his second year, but really in reality a virtual rookie??

A young player suiting up in Knicks jersey better average 20, 5, 5 like MJ, Oscar and Tyreke Evans in his rookie years, or he's a bum, deserves to be thrown at with rotten eggs/ tomatoes and MUST BE TRADED AWAY FROM THE TEAM IMMEDIATELY. :lol:

Very high standard these "Knicks fans" have, the same standard that approve letting quality players go and embrace me-me players who can't even focus more than 2 minutes on the court like JR and Fatton.

"But I only support whatever Knicks do because I love Knicks" -----> exactly why Dolan still owns the team because he can hide behind people like you who support whatever Knicks do.

So this is what its all about. Lin is the anti-Dolan. He is a cult-like figure for lost Knicks fans to follow.

I dont think Lin is a bum. I think he's good player. I support Lin. I didnt want him to go. But Im over it. You can argue as to whether Ray or Lin is better. What you cant argue is that our point guard corps as a whole is miles better than Lin, Davis and Bibby.

This is the longest OT thread about another player. It's unprecedented.

Linsanity was unprecedented (not only in knicks history but in NBA history)... Put one and one together man.

It took a few months but I'm ready to move on. Will follow Lin the rest of his career because he's a good dude and the story is a captivating one. Not saying I have forgotten what Dolan did, I never will, but in life you have to keep it moving...I'm gonna miss Lin but I'm excited about this Knicks team. This is the best team (on paper) Knicks have had in years...

This is where I am at. The loss of Lin the player still stings, and I will always wish him the best. I'm over it though. At the end of the day, I am a Knick fan, and I will support the players actually on the roster.

That being said, it has left a mark. It's not so much that the difference between Felton and Lin is the difference between winning a ring and not winning a ring. It's that this was a blatant example of Dolan putting something, whether it be finances or personal feelings, over basketball decisions. It is something that is systemic when it comes to this franchise, and something that will always be an obstacle to us winning it all.

We could have had this exact roster with Jeremy Lin on the team.
