I know you're smart enough to know I never said I don't care, so I'm not gonna take the bait, thanks.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.


Still not biting.

It could be. As an outsider looking at your roster and cap situation, there are a few options for growth but they must be pursued with great humility and diligence. Masai has skills as a GM but his arrogance gets in the way and that has been on full display in Toronto. Not all of his "finds" will pan out. He needs to spend more time addressing that the Raps are not top heavy enough in talent and that their style of play doesn't win playoff games and less time trash talking before playoff series.

I couldn't give two **** about whether Masai trash talks before a playoff series, nor do I understand why anybody else would either. Has absolutely nothing to do with how he does his job at all.


It doesn't. But those incidents have been outward evidence of what people have suspected about Masai for awhile. He's skilled but his main limitation is he thinks too highly of his successes.

If it doesn't, then why are you bringing it up at all here? It had absolutely nothing to do with my post at all.

I think when you say "people," you mean you.

I was under the impression that people involved with running the team might be among those you felt had been fooled and shouldn't be anymore.

Perhaps I was mistaken.

I was referring to the failures of the coach and the players. Not sure what the GM rather humorously throwing out cuss words at fan rallies has to do with that.

Good to have Knicks fans dropping by the troll these threads, though.

I might not be able to root for the product on the court, but I can root for the fans of the franchise.

You guys truly have the best fan base in the NBA. And by far the funniest one on RealGM (I never go to the NYK board so maybe they're good too, that's why I stopped short of saying best on RealGM).


Pure class. Hope Boston does well. Got some good pieces and even in a rebuild you still managed to make the playoffs lol.

Respect.

If Darrell Walker couldn't kill this franchise, nothing will.
