because i dont play it, i dont have delusions of grandeur. when was the last time we got a superstar player in free agency or trade that made us a contender? what makes you think we'll get one now? media infused delusions of grandeur?
i don't have delusions of grandeur, i just know the nature of first times. and i can infer, i know that the nba wants the knicks to be good, and from the twitter reactions of actual nba players\stars i know that nba players have some feeling about a MSG popping off.
when was the last time the nets signed a superstar player? suddenly they have 2 in free agency
when was the last time the clippers suddenly have 2(Well 1.5)
that's the nature of first times, it happens for the first time(or first time in a while)
well, the nba has always wanted the knicks to be good, this isn't a recent development. nba players also got to see that feeling of MSG popping off in 2013 when we made the 2nd round, this also isn't some recent development.
kyrie & kd went to brooklyn because kyrie was from new jersey and a nets fan growing up then kd ended just following him there because they wanted to play together
kawhi went to the clippers because he's from los angeles, wants to live in los angeles, didn't want to be on the lakers, and so had to join the clippers.
i dont buy this media narrative that it was this great brooklyn culture or whatever that got kyrie there or whatever bull the media spewed about kawhi going to the clippers other than it's just where he's from and it's a great place to live.
I think it'd be nice if it happened to us for the first time but could any of these near-future disgruntled superstars be hidden knicks fans? Only donovan was born in the NY area, and he's years away from getting here considering he just signed his max deal
