I'm huge melo fan and I definitely don't think he deserves all the flak he gets from the fans.

But I'm definitely not happy with us winning last night. Winning meaningless games like that could be the difference with us drafting in the 7-10 area rather than the desired franchise saving 4-7 area.

We need to shut KP down for the season, especially with his latest injury and we definitely need to start resting melo more often.
Im not too hyped about drafting players either though. These young nikkas seem to made of paper mache them nikkas always injured

Good thing is, he may be picked up by a playoff team and be a contributor. I'd like that.

I liked his heart. When shyt was clicking, he was making brehs feel like that bully garden was back. :salute:

Yessir... Especially when he gave Yung Willy a teachable moment against the Nets...

Maybe "getting away with it" is a stretch because they can't stand Dolan, but Dolan doesn't give a damn about you as long as you still go to games.


Ain't no structure so damn good in this town that you'd pay those kind of prices just to be in there. While you go to the Garden because it's the Garden, he's taking your money and giving you a substandard product. When fans stop attending games, owners go "man I can't finesse these people anymore. We gotta win these people back." It happened to the Wilpons. It's happening to Woody Johnson and the Steinbrenners. It's not gonna hit Dolan because pride alone isn't doing it and if my team is worth billions, clearly something is being done right in his mind.

The Lakers have a similar situation except they hate losing that much that they're willing to blow it up. Dolan even in his radio interview isn't that concerned.
People still dont seem to understand that people like Dolan live in their own bubbles. That guy knows that the knicks will likely fetch 4 billion and at the end of the day that is above all in his mind. He went out of his way to stop the Jets development to protect his MSG empire in a ridiculous dikk measuring contest between him and Woody Johnson.

The infrastructure underneath (the subway) is literally crumbling and Dolan is not going to stop his operations even if it inconvneniences millions of people each year traveling.

This is the kind of owner we are dealing with. Good friends with Trump. Biggest priority each season is to profit. I think it hurt his soul that he hired a guy to pay him an absurd amount of money and not seeing any results out of it. I hope we see a big name exec take over after Phil, but my guess is that it won't happen immediately. I just hope Dolan hires a young analytics guy to see where that gets us once we get out of the Melo/Phil era.

Exactly... Dolan ain't in no rush to push Phil out the door, especially after listening to his interview. He basically told the people, "this is what ya'll niiggas wanted, for me to stay out the way and not get involved" The longer Phil screws things up, the more people actually start to WANT Dolan to intervene... Phil catches all the hot ones and Dolan gets to sit on the sidelines on some :ufdup::umad: all while the Garden continually sells out.

The book is still out on whether that's a mistake or a blessing in disguise. If you ask me, KP still has the most potential out of anyone in that draft class, and he was absolutely killing it during the beginning of the season. It's not KP's fault that he's currently in the most toxic situation any young player could be in right now, and injuries caught up to him. His conditioning could be a little better I suppose, but until the Knicks are purged from it's toxicity, and they get a decent pg( doesn't have to be good, just decent) I wouldn't judge KP so harshly.


nikka PLEASE he has the most potential just like Shumpert was going to be a superstar just like Wilson Chandler was going to be next just like Danilo was going to be a monster. Start being realistic about players and not give them attributes they might never have KP is a streaky jump shooter who can block shots at the rim nothing more nothing less he doesn't know how to use his length on the perimeter he can't win mismatches and he is a poor rebounder with horrible techniques and maybe Noah is rubbing off on him but showing him the art of the ghastly foul.

We need to be realistic and stop the bullshyt if he was had Kat and Melo we would be in the playoffs because we won't have to depend on Melo as much because we would have another one on one baller.

Now KP fans come neg me since i didn't say he was this great unicorn who somehow will have every skillset in the world

Why not cut that fukking scrub N'Dour instead?:what::mindblown:
because people would have complained that keeping Jennings when signing Randle would be redundant and still wouldn't guarantee Randle getting play time.

You cut Jennings because, as a veteran, he'll have the opportunity to play elsewhere. Randle gets play time and we get a bigger sample size for all of our youth.
