This is a weird team--like someone mentioned above---no player that is on this roster was born and bread a Knick accept Iman who was offered to the Suns for Nash. It is what it is. I wish somehow all Knick fans would boycott game 1 dont go dont watch nothing--not so much for Jeremy Lin--but for all of the hardcore diehard fans who have endured the crp of Dolan.
Who on the 99 team was born and bread a Knick besides Ewing and Ward? We still loved that team, no?
I'm upset about Lin, but we have a good team. Older? Yes. Better than last year or the 10 before? Absolutely.

If Melo plays like that all next season it will shut some people up. I think that's why so many like to bash him so much. He is capable of playing like that year round and he hasn't done it. I think this is the year that it comes together for him and the team.

I hope he does but i go by teh saying that "talk is cheap" Melo ha sproven that he is an all-star and will put up consistent scoring numbers during the regular season. Thats is greta but he needs to improve on making the team better and his playoff record which is dreaful
