How does it feel to follow a basketball team in New York City that's really relevant? So many big games are coming up.
The grudge match against Indiana? After they talked sh*t and we took that home-and-home? They'll be out for blood.
Two straight games (April 8th and 10th) against the Bulls?
Tonight against ATL? Shooooooooot.
Please be grateful. Championships are all so much gravy. This ride is what you've been begging for.

This season for the Knicks has been such a roller coaster, would be the greatest feeling in the world to hoist that Larry O'Brien Trophy.

Big secret : since MDA showed up our winning percentage has increased every year.
Everybody wants results yesterday. It takes years to build a contender.
It takes decades of success to build a Championship culture (Giants, Yankees) and this is the HARDEST city in which to do it.
gunsnewing@ 3/30/2012 5:11 PM
I don't agree there. All it took was getting rid of Dantoni finally after 4yrs. The main problem was the capped out roster but luckily Donny fix it and Grunwald has continued to steer it in the right direction

D'Antoni lost more in his second year in ny then he did in his first. Totally pumped up about the Knicks under Woodson and glad to be moving on.

Such a breath of fresh air. When a poster gladly admits they've been drinking the "Kool Aid" that so many other cult members are still drinking to this day.

what a great original post
who cares about why and the context. I wish people would shut up and appreciate what this is for what it is.
It has been so long since I've seen great Knicks basketball. This is great basketball. Maybe it's unsustainable or maybe it's the beginning of something special. Honestly, does it matter? Who gives a shit. Enjoy the ride

Well to me its nothing - Atlanta sucks - would not impress me to beat them. If we win a title? That's another story
MarburyAnd1Crossover@ 3/30/2012 8:17 PM
I wouldn't go that far. Let's give them longer than the little burst of energy after backstabbing a coach.

LOL! I actually thought this thread was going to be about you when I read the title.
ChuckBuck@ 3/31/2012 6:31 PM
Felt like winners until I heard about JLin's News...FU*KING BUMMER MAN! I can't believe this always happens to us! Mcdyess, Houston, LJ, Ewing, Amare now Lin....endless injury curses.
JamesLin@ 4/1/2012 12:36 PM
I really don't know anymore. Maybe we got the Babe Ruth reverse curse? I just don't know... I really really thought we have a great chance to win it all this year... I never thought MDA's system works because his system really wears down players, mentally and physically. Now he's gone, defensive minded Woodson comes in and everyone was doing great. I even started to play with myself again at night. We had linsanity, woodsanity, lots of alley loops, and.. we're back to square one simply because of major starter injuries. I just don't know anymore. I always wanted to root for our team and always have, but man, being 40 years old does wear you down and take away your spirits sometimes, especially when things like this happens. Did the Knicks fans rub you the wrong way, NBA gods? Did we???

We're playing defense. A balanced game leads to more wins. MDA's system was not balanced and the winning percentage shows the result.
