Just accept the Knicks front office for what it is and be optimistic about an on court product that's destined to fail? It's not in me. :manny:
It's not about optimism, breh. It's about diagnosing basketball game to game. My Giants are 0-3 right now. I'm not happy about it, and obviously our front office doesn't engage in Knicks level fukkery but Id rather talk about X & Os which are there for me to see and analyze rather than front office fukkery which tend to be media driven and we have less insight to.

The front office fukkery is directly intertwined with the on the court product and which players get held accountable and which ones that dont.

Yeah it is. The thing is you don't know nearly as much as you like to delude yourself into thinking you know about the front office. You run with Daily News headlines, anonymous sources and ESPN fodder. This has nothing to do with me having my Knicks gear on and screaming Knicks from the mountaintops. It has to do with me being rational enough to realize that yelling "fukk Dolan!" and "fukk CAA!" doesn't mean I'm saying anything of relevance. Team's front office operations aren't transparent. So parroting the same complaints about Dolan and CAA is the lowest form of analysis because it isn't based on anything substantive.

Putting two and two together has zero to do with Isola or whomever. Dolan just fired the GM the day before training camp and hired a guy who oversaw the worst era of Knicks basketball in franchise history.

This franchise isn't about winning basketball games. Open your eyes.

"Open your eyes":dead: That's the type of shyt I'm talking about. You're not some enlightened Knicks "fan" that took the red pill and left the Matrix of ignorance. The Knicks being an inept franchise has been beaten into the heads of fans for years from multiple avenues. Nobody's eyes are closed to the woes of this team. It's just that some people love the game and team despite being cognizant of how poorly it's run and want to talk basketball and others want to focus on putting two and two together to ultimately accomplish nothing but banal front office bashing. Like I said before, I'm cool with it when news like what just happens drops in the offseason, but at some point the game of basketball has to be actually discussed.
