Thanks, man. Miss those fun times we had here.

It needs to be updated. Back then everyone helped each other out. I created the bus but I think it was The Biz who did the animation.


Hahaha I remember this GIF.

I can't wait for the Melo era fans to be gone if anything else.

Sick of it.

And you thought Melo had it bad:

lol

They were booing a 12-6 team... Booing Patrick Ewing and talking about JVG being on the hotseat lol I think we've become soft.

Looks like nothing has changed in 20 years....


It used to be worse, man... I'm not kidding it was hostile even for the winners.

Chill. We all know that if we weren't stupid and waited to get Melo in free agency, our team would've been a really good squad with all those guys still on the roster + Melo.



that wasnt an option. melo agreed to go to brk and have his cash, rather then to go to FA and lose millions. we would have ended up with deron.

you all deserve mediocrity

no he was heavily appreciated here, he was viewed as the savior. in fact the fans should've been on his case long ago when he got rid of d'antoni and lin in a sequence of 5 months, but they didn't because the fans loved melo. i loved melo, i'm banned from the general forum because i called out tsherkin on his bias bashing of melo. when trade was announced the knicks made amazing video packages hyping him.

so don't for one second make up a bs claim that the knicks didn't respect melo his entire team here because we did, we embraced him. the past few seasons however fans have been souring on him because they've had enough with the "excuses" and the fingers pointed elsewhere.

that and also his decline played a part, so the fans expressed their opinion on a diminishing player that still views himself as bigger than the team.

YOU deserved this mediocrity from the melo era, because turns out he's not batman or robin ... dude is straight up alfred.

I see this is one of your comedy jokes

still sucks

nope, it's me telling you how it is and you came up with a weak response.
LOL Y U MAD THO?

True. And I agree with you on Fox. Likable kid and a speed merchant for sure but there are some serious holes in his game.

There's the political me and the basketball me. The mods here always treated me very fairly and we had great times back in the day. The CA board was entirely different story. I reacted emotionally because back then I was here to talk Knicks, not politics and it was ripped away from me. And I think I did a damn good job along with a lot of other great posters entertaining the Knicks board.


you always entertained me


Thanks, much appreciated. It was always supposed to be about fun since the team was so damn awful that you just had to laugh otherwise we would have all gone insane. (like Marbury eventually did) :lol:


I'm assuming you were a part of the "dark side" clan :lol: . I can't remember your original poster name. Blueseats sticks out the most for me from back then. Great debates either way.

and proves melo never cared about winning. he held us hostage to get here, knowing we could never rebuild around him. it was about his money, brand, and wifes B-list status.

My humble visual interpretation of the Greenie's reactions vs the Board

But I'm what's wrong with the forum?

Mofo's wanna act like they don't come for posters.

Head to the Mills thread or the Timmy thread. The same ones complaining in here are the same posters at people in those threads

So go get Felton, Gallo, Mozgov and Wilson back.

Go get them.

He won't. He's regressing.
That's what I saw from his rookie to sophomore campaign. Jeff is still his coach which is flat out bad.
