I'm just worried if the Knicks put up another good season that we see the return of James Dolan

They are only competitive because he stepped back

But you know that racist piece of shyt wanna be all up in the videos
Dolan has hired more black men to front office and coaching positions than any owner :manny:

I haven’t had high expectations for knicks in years.

But if we don’t win atleast 50 games this season, that will be a huge disappointment.

This squad from top to bottom is better than the hawks and celtics.

The East is deep this yr, but we should finish top 5, battling with the heat for the 4th spot.
This should be the best Knicks team of the last 20 years.

For whatever reason, I’ve been listening to Black Rob’s “Whoa” and picturing that fukkin instrumental blasting at MSG as the signature song when introducing the Knicks starting lineups for years to come.

Somebody set that up. :banderas:

The Knicks have to cut three players from the bench roster


Either Simms, McBride or Knox is headed to the G-league

Probably Simms since Thibs prefers defense McBride should be safe and Knox been here the whole time when he should've been in the g-league years ago :snoop:

What did I say wrong there?

Thibs is a great coach when it comes to development and defense but he's always been bad at rotations and minutes distribution which you directly proved my point by quoting a post from 2018 :dead:. Same dude who played L-Frid major minutes even in the playoffs. You thought you ate :dead:
The point is, even you want to discredit a part of an equation; you shyt on it by big upping other things.

The fans, the garden and the city has a lot to do with Randle's turn around. As well as thibs.

But, because you don't want to give the city credit... You got the other thing... Thibs.

But, in the past, you'll shyt on that same thing (thibs) in order to be a bytch.

Randle has improved every year. wtf does MSG have to do with it?

:dead:

y'all literally giving yourselves credit for his improvement because you booed him. This is not a Disney movie. NBA players don't need fans for motivation. Maybe just maybe he has his own internal goals. You really think he replays the fans booing him to get him up in the morning. It's one thing to say he's inspired by the fans and wants to bring the Knicks back to the top for the fans but to say y'all were the reason why he improved because y'all were irrationally hating on him is ridiculous even for yall standards

You obviously didn't read his players tribune piece.

People are just stating what he said.

This is exactly why a lot of Knick fans in here don't fuk with you. You don't understand NY or the dynamic in general so you can't wrap your head around things. Even when we were good in the past, players didn't wanna play for us. Why? Because of the pressure, media, & fans. Most players aren't built to handle this & it's why stars have passed on opportunities to play here. Stat, Melo & will always get love here because they CHOSE to take that on fully knowing it.

And now we can add Randle to the mix. Instead of folding like a bytch, he manned up, took it on the chin & got way better. That's the kind of shyt we NY'ers can relate to in real life because that's exactly how it is it is to live here. So save all of your BS for another group bro

Who's responsible for Randle's is immaterial. People wanted to trade him because he had a terrible season under Fizdale, he acknowledged and understood. He likes accountability. That's why he likes Thibs, that's why he likes New York fans. We give you exactly what you've earned. He didn't earn shyt his first year and that's why we boo'ed. He earned it his second year and we've been hyping him and pushing for more and more credit to go his way since.

You were dikkriding him when he was playing terrible according to everybody including himself? Great job having faith. But stfu with this crybaby shyt. He's not claiming to be a martyr and he doesn't need you to either. It takes a certain type of person to be built for this city. Randle is that type...you obviously aren't.
