then get in stewie's time machine and undo the melo trade
Papabear SaysSorry but that team we had was nothing but a 500 ball club if that. they were exciting to watch but that team was going no where. It was not the Melo trade. It was getting rid of Zack Randolph, and Crawford plus giveing them away cheap along with other pieces because we thought we had LeBron in the bag and we didn't. Melo had nothing to do with our fire sale. You can't put that blame on him. Zack Randolph is putting up great numbers and we gave him away for what??
what part of roster flush eludes you? the barn needed to be cleaned of all the bull**** that isiah thomas dumped thanks to years of snake oil. walsh did the right thing by swapping longer bad contracts for shorter bad contracts. not walsh's fault that lebron duped the nba. what you are advocating in your post is horrible, namely continuing the isiah thomas tradition.
but let me guess-- you are one of the proud few who defended isiah thomas to the bitter end. am i right?
Papabear Says
You are sooo wrong. Stay in your dongeon and complain. But here's what I'm gonna do. I'm going to some Knicks games and enjoy myself. 
Unlike you I refuse to be on the Dark side like you just hattin and hopin that they trade Melo but guess what?? Melo will be here for a long long time so you just stay miserable and complain about Melo it won't get you nowhere. Dolan owns the team last I heard. Or just maybe you can get some of you money people and buy the team so you can bring back your favorite players. I'll just enjoy this season that has been the best in over ten years.

You see, communication is a fine art. I'm a Knicks fan. I'm happy with Melo. I'm already happy we're in first place in our division. I've accepted reality. Happily. I did not cry when we signed Amare. I did not wave buhbye to Gallo or Wheeelson or Moz with hysterical, long-term depression in my heart.
Another difference between you and everyone else, is we know when we're peeing on ourselves while posting on UltimateKNICKS. You apparently don't.
My legs are dry and happy. Try to have fun watching the games.

it's getting harder to watch this team knowing that their ceiling is 2nd round and out with a possible woodson-like annihilation of 4-0 or 4-1. worse, it is also looking probable that it's a melo-special first round buh-bye should we be forced to face boston or chicago.
i thought the consensus for most of us was a significant ECF appearance. maybe you felt differently but if you didn't then how does this team strike you now?

By my recall, we've been doing okay these last few games. We slammed Utah. We played OKC to the end and were leading against Miami in the 4th quarter. We've switched Martin for Amar'e, giving us a different and needed look on defense and we're now using 11 guys, giving us a boost on the offensive end. All this talk about sweeping out the barn and getting value for the pieces we have is short sighted. Value rarely comes back in a dump. We do have a 1st round draft pick, Amar'e will be back, and we will be stronger. Oh, Melo will be back too. tonight!

i don't see an ECF team and that was the expectation by most UK posters, probably including you. can't wait for the excuses for woodson and melo to start trickling in.
