Somewhat agree with this but why can't you:

- Love Linsanity
- Have liked MDA and moving the ball

and still:

- Enjoy Woodsanity
- Hate Dolan
- Like the Knicks old new whatever

Remember before, during, and after Linsanity when there were those who were EUPHORIC about the winning streak and then the subsequent posters who were all "hey now don't get carried away"?

Not discounting "Linsanity", because that period saved the season, but alot of posters (especially the new ones) have not brought anything positive since the transition to "Woodsanity". And alot of posters would rather the ball be in Jeremy's hands scoring instead of our best player's, Melo's hands during closing time. I don't mind Lin bringing the ball up and being our distributor and lane driver if the D gets stagnant, but some people actually want Lin to be the leading scorer like the "Linsanity" streak, which obviously is a fantasy.

Nobody has said lin should be the main score so i dont know eher you got that. The only reason lin was the main scorer during linsaity was because he had to eb with melo and amare out. Lin would be teh first oen to tell you that he doesn't want the burden of running the offense and alos having to score 25 a game

You've been here less than 2 weeks and you think no one has said that? Go back in your hole, jackass.

Chuck, this is not what we want on this site. No more posts like this.

Its ok Martin Chuck is a good fan he just need to calm down

I retract my name calling, Irish. Sorry. Hope we can continue to post positive threads going forward.

U do know there is a positive stuff thread started by one of the haters for those type of postings..

Lol noted.

For the record, JR's bad shooting against the bulls had little to do with their defense. He creates with no problem but if his confidence is off, so is his shot.

Having two great defenders, or at least one in Shump (JR being very good) is enough to really really slow them down due to Rose being overly impt to that team. We also have a great center to protect the paint.

Now, if Lin is playing, that gives us 3 very good to great scorers in crunch time. If we have one of Lin or Stat back and healthy in the playoffs, I just see the bulls having problems scoring enough, and add to that Stats mastery of his counterpart. Our defense is great, and our offense is damn good to great.

Bonn1997 - did someone call you a hater?

Tell me who did and I'll punch his lights out.

To be clear, I could care less whether you celebrate or are sour-faced. It's only basketball and the Knicks are too much fun.

Please pass me an extra noisemaker and party hat.

Beat Chicago.

Thanks; I get called a Melo-hater pretty often. I would be happy if you punched MrKnickFans lights out. JK!

Are you referring to me? I never called you a hater! I called you an As$hole!

haha - just kidding

Michael Jordan drops 55 on the Knicks. Bulls fans euphoric.

Carmelo Anthony drops 43 on the Bulls. Select few Knicks fans unhappy because other Knicks fans are celebrating too loudly.

Police are called to the scene to investigate.

You got it all wrong. We're not unhappy because some are celebrating too loudly. We just don't like being called haters because we don't celebrate loudly enough.

Interesting. Just who are the "we"? This thread was started to admonish fans who might have been cheering too loudly after the Knicks shorthanded win over the #1 Team in the East (and a very exciting game to boot). It was also started to bait posters who might take a more postitive outlook to the Knicks ("The Euphoria is a little over the Top"....perhaps it is the title of this thread that is a bit over the top). And yet you try unconvincingly to turn it all around and play the victim here. How bout you question the OP's motives instead?

Dont worry about it Chuck

If it's any consolation, you're one of the new posters that I actually give props to basketball knowledge wise, for what it's worth. The rest of the noobs can suck it(sorry Martin)

Chuck, what's wrong with being new on UK? I mean you're "only" 4 months older than ol' irish here.

Nope, I'm a still a rookie.

The euphoria of winning a must-win game in rugged, determined and defensive fashion is not over the top.

It is satisfyingly serene and confident.

It makes the beer tastes better and makes your woman a skootch more attractive.

It makes you consider wearing your Knicks socks to work.

This feeling makes the playoffs worth watching.

Why?

We will silence your home crowd.

You come in our house, no matter who you are, and you WILL work.

Bring it.

Stick that in your send closk and smoke it.
