It's a little early for this.



It's a little early for this, too. Take a break, skip a few games... you guys are doing too much.



No. Jordan/Pippen Shaq/Kobe are not the triangle. They would have succeeded in ANY system, they're all-time ball players. You could have put them in any offense, and you would have won championships. Pau Gasol won as the big man in the Triangle also.

The Triangle is NOT the stars, it's BJ, Harper, Kerr, Paxson, Buechler, Fisher, Fox, Horry, Shaw, George.... THOSE are the guys that thrive in the Triangle. THAT is what the triangle is about, creating space and movement and easy shots for players AROUND the stars, which then takes some of the burden off them.

It's not a magic pill, you are right. It is a system that needs players that can pass and move and recognize openings, and knock down open shots, and make decisions and adjustments. Those players are not on the roster yet... but it's not all about the stars. You don't need MJ or Kobe to run it. MJ and Kobe can run anything. Or nothing.

The point is you win and compete for titles with great players in the nba not a system

This Knick team has a lack of talent the triangle doesn't change that..it's about the players in the nba not the system

I am kinda tired of hearing that all of our Euro players keep sitting with these soft injuries.

Well, not always. The Spurs have shown that superstar talent can be beaten by a superior system. Detroit showed it too.

But we agree. This team is not talented enough to compete for anything right now.

Taylor Swift says Amar’e Stoudemire is the reason she is a big Knicks fan
BILL PRICE

Yesterday, 02:31 PM

Amar’e Stoudemire hasn’t come close to winning a title as a member of the Knicks, but he is responsible for the new No. 1 Knicks fans in town: Taylor Swift.

The newly minted Global Welcome Ambassador for New York City recently told Time magazine a meeting with Stoudermire at the Met Gala is the reason she’s become a regular on celebrity row.

“I’ve gone the last four years. And the most normal people at that event, every single time, are Amar’e Stoudemire and his wife Alexis,” the “Welcome to New York” singer said. “I talk with them and hang with them every time I’m there. So I’ve always had this sort of love of the Knicks, just because Amar’e is so cool.”

Swift, born in Reading, Pa. in 1989, said a trip to Garden at an early age was the beginning of her love affair with the World’s Most Famous Arena.

“I performed at the Knicks’ — at Madison Square Garden’s — Kids Talent Competition at halftime when I was 12 or 13,” said Swift, who has gotten more air time on Garden vision this season than the actual team. “And ever since then I’ve had this kind of sparkly, magical opinion of Madison Square Garden and the Knicks, since they let me sing when I was a little kid.”

s for the Knicks, Swift — who has no problems blasting former beau’s in her songs — she’s OK with their 2-7 start.

“I love them, though. Why does that matter?”

I was at the game on Wednesday and she was there :noah:
Alexis better watch out... I know STAT is plotting and scheming like :shaq:
