That was my store :to:

That was my childhood :to:

I bought my first maxi singles in that store :sad:

Some of my CD booklets still smell like the Wiz :sad:

When 9/11 happened I was heading to the Wiz on Fordham :wow:


Dolan took that from me :damn:

That's errie. I was doing the same thing, going to pick up Fabulous' first album, and Jay-Z's album.

Anyways, yall clowned me when I said KP might dip the first chance he gets because of the antics of this organization. Your cornerstone is NOT HAPPY, so what's the next move Coli GMs

I honestly believe Phil Jackson is trying to get fired

IMO, Dolan will only fire him if we miss out on a top 5 pick

And I hope Phil doesn't either.

This is the Knicks for14 year period from 2000 - 2014 (Before Phil got here):

* Missed the playoffs 9 out of those 14 years
* Been bounced in the first round 4 out of the remaining 5 seasons
* Have 1 playoff series win (54 win season)
* Traded numerous picks to "win now"
* Have essentially no easy assets when Phil got here, because teams assume the Knicks will add a pick to every transaction.

Melo is a cool guy, a HOF player, still an amazing scorer. He's not the reason the Knicks are losing. The Knicks still need to move on and try to get assets for him while they can so in a few years when KP's contract is up the GM then (cause Phil's contract is over before KP's) can say "we got the pieces to be a playoff team, here is this 200 million contract, stay".

after everyones rookie deal...they're a restricted free agent and all contract offers can be matched.
the 200+ million dollar can happen after the second contract...where he gets the veteran payout....in which case we can still pay him more than anyone else by 50+ million...thats the incentive
phil will be long gone by that point...by maybe 4+ years lol

You're right but we got to still build up to that point. The Thunder didn't build up to that point with Durant, neither did the Cavs with Lebron before he went to the Heat. You got to build your team around your star and show them they can compete. I also think KP doesn't want to be the focus of the offense..... fukk that he's got to learn to do it eventually. Melo isn't going to be there to carry that load, KP's got to learn to do it.

We've had worse seasons and offseasons before but this one has been the most frustrating.

Because finally, after so long, we have everything possible to be a good team, cap space, all our draft picks, possible top 5 pick, and most importantly a potential franchise player with KP and a real good piece with Willy.

You would think with that going for us, the fans would be rejoicing with joy but it's the complete opposite. The team is in shamles, the GM won't let the coach, coach. The GM won't let the players play. The GM is alienated himself from the team and the fans.

If your a free agent, why the fukk would you wanna come here? If you're a rookie, why would you be optimistic about your future with this team.

At this point Dolan has no option but to fire phil and start over. I know changing management every few yrs is not a good thing, but I don't see how they can keep Phil. We need to make a change before the draft. Let the new GM come in, make the draft pick that he sees fit to run with KP and willy and potential free agent.
