This tune should be played throughout all of our games:

I think Seth Curry is the guy to get. I agree about not making a panic move but the move to make was waive this guy and get some help.

Agreed.

It feels like the Isiah era all over again. Can't imagine what it would feel like to be any of the guys that outplayed Chris in the summer and at camp now that the guy is actually on a roster in December.
NYY1NYK2@ 12/17/2013 5:36 PM
NOOO, This is worst than Isaiah. Isaiah traded for washed up NBA PLAYERS.
Chris Smith would get his ass handed to him in the NIKE Tournament, W. 4th, Dyckman Tournament. The guy is just awful
NYY1NYK2@ 12/17/2013 5:39 PM
Growing up I'm sure chris made the team because of his brother.....its understandable But to be able to pull that move off professionally, In a MAJOR MARKET. Thats just genius
earthmansurfer@ 12/17/2013 5:39 PM
This is just an incredible story, really, made for TV movie. "The unbelievable pain of being a Knicks fan." or just replace that last part with "that Dolan brings."
We have gone from Linsanity, to this horror story, and just when you think it can't possibly get any worse: Woodson starts sucking more at the end of games Amare gets overplayed and is out for a while K-Mart is out (And note Chandler gets to come back to this.) Hey, how about signing Jeremy Tyler now, just to save Chandler? Pablo is out with a fracture And finally, Chris Smith who doesn't belong in the D-league, is called up. Ironic

The Curse Lives
Any self respecting ("did he say 'respect?") Knicks fan should boo Smith every time Smith touches the ball
Free Toure Murry

Why would you, or any self respecting human being, take your frustration out on C.Smith? What did he do to deserve that?
I understand that fans want to send a message to management but thats not the way to do it.
playa2@ 12/17/2013 5:57 PM
If you guys would loosen up a bit and realize , Isiah hates the knicks fans and he has something over Dolan that he won't let go.'
Zeke probably figures if he can't be in the knicks front office in any capacity and leave his mark in a constructive way, then he's gonna leave his mark on the team in a destructive way.
Why are people thinking Dolan knows anything about basketball...he doesn't.
Zeke loves what's going on.... read my signature.

Good, I'm going to boo Chris Smith the moment his feet touch the court.

With JR looking like a marginal nba player no less. The Smiths have some dark influence over this franchise.

Because, after watching him play in person, there is no freakin way he earned the NYK uni on merit.
That's why.
If Chris Smith plays he needs to prove he can play from jump.
No excuses.

I def don't support bringing Smith up. I think it's a joke but no more ridiculous trades. I'm not huge on Curry but at least he has some potential and could maybe bring something to the table.

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt first. If he stinks it up, then boo away. Anyway, my bigger point is this - This might be the straw that breaks the camels back regarding this OBVIOUS under the table deal with Dolan, JR and bro.
Enjoy the Apocalypse - it affects all of life
EnySpree@ 12/17/2013 7:38 PM
I feel like if he plays well....like blows us a way....I won't even care.
Are they literally saying by calling Chris Smith up and not waiving him for Tyler that this sorry season is ok???
You mean to tell me there are no moves to be made? There isn't a need to improve? Find a point guard? Find a big man?
Do the Knicks think getting back Tyson will get the team on track?
I literally dont care either way....this is rock bottom for me.....I look forward to the next Era. 2013/14 season right now is the end of it all for me....i'm still a knick fan but I can't cheer for this bullshit. I can't watch this garbage....they need to make changes and they need to show us they give a fuck about basketball, image and tradition....I can't invest my energy and emotions in bullshit like this

This Chriss Smith thing is causing more problems than we could dream of. The nerve of the Knicks keeping him. The same way the league is being controlled is the same way agents need to be controlled.

The only reason I can think of is Toure Murry is a transgender athlete and they are trying to figure out if he's eligible to play in the nba... that's the only logical explanation
LMFAO. That's a good one, man. Very funny.
callmened@ 12/17/2013 11:15 PM
Hmmmm? If murry is so good then why are the knicks calling up zero smith? He barely started in college and shouldnt hv made the team.
Now at first, one would think nepotism (favoritism towards JR), but it sounds like he and woody have beef now. Also, woody is trying to save his job now. So he needs to play murry, shump or whoever to save his job.
Again it concludes my theory that murry is in fact a shooting guard shaped like a PG. He can defend a pg or sg but cant play like a pg nor can he shoot (this goes back to me watching him in the summer league, preseason and four yrs of college). The fact that woody is calling up zero smith with his job on the line means the knicks are in bad bad bad shape. Smh
The real question is should the knicks move to get lowry by any means neceassary? I would love to see lowry in a knick uniform but at what cost
