That was my POV. The rumors could have been crushed by KD in a heartbeat, thus I don't believe anything he says nor do I care.

as you can probably tell by my screen name, i love me some JVG.

but fans were frustrated with his offensive schemes in 2000. :lol: i couldn't see him adjusting to coaching today's game at the HC level. i think his role with team USA is perfect because they can get the most out of him as a teacher and identity guy. and you listen to the way he commentates. he is such a curmudgeon about the current state of the game. :lol:

oh, man. i'd drink cyanide if i had to watch a JVG offense in 2019.


It was either a Ewing post up or a Houston post up. That was basically it :lol:


Come on man! Thats not true.... you're better than that!!!

Spoiler:
There was also the occasional LJ post up and Sprewell post up too. :P


JVG was a strong motivator on defense and better at coaching it than he was at calling plays on the offensive end.

It is actually quite true Jeff was a marginal coach when it came to offensive strategy.

Kevin Durant was always going to the Nets..... as long as they signed his BFF Kyrie.

i would leave a "tanking" company. that's not for me.


you really only need to be good the year before free agency. the nets were perceptual trash too before this year, nobody has that long a memory. if the knicks tank 1 more year it won't really change anything if their goal is free agency 2021. i'm fine with them trying to compete more but it's not something that really matters for this year. and if you draft well enough you won't need free agents to save you.


Yes. Agreed all around. Good post.

The Knicks need more talent through the draft. Picking higher gives you a better chance of getting that talent.

I mean he’s not a credible witness for himself. All year he said he wasn’t thinking about free agency at all and now he says he was thinking about the Nets.

Maybe the Knicks were not in his mindset at all but I again doubt it. And I again feel he’s phony. And there are things he’s not telling the truth about recently — one way or the other, because he’s mad contradicting himself.

Ha ha ha, Berman is now sucking up to the Knicks saying trading KP was the right thing to do

Guy knows he went too far with his hatchet jobs saying we failed in the off-season and now he's trying to clean up after himself

Sorry Marc, you're not fooling anyone

45 bucks wasn't a high bar bruh.
Those last 70 seconds, Randle in a nut shell.

Awful 2 for 1 3PT attempt when we are up 2
Doesn’t close out on Sabonis --> open 3
Takes another side step off balance 3

We got sucked into the Randle vortex where all good feelings go to die.
