The Knicks Thread....

[Sauru]

with the win over the bucks knicks have won 3 of 4 games.. just 1 lose ( a bad one) but still 1 game.

its true, they only lost 1 game out of thier last 4, but they still suck. isiah has no buisness in the nba anymore. the sooner they get rid of him the sooner the knicks can start to get back on the right road

Isiah's only half the problem. You think anyone good wants to work for an idiot owner like Jim Dolan?

Eddy Curry goes 3-for-13 with 3 boards and 3 turnovers, but Isiah blames the fans for being negative???? Hey Zeke, you put this bunch of bums together, you a-hole!!!!

Unfortunately, as long as Isiah never criticizes the team publicly, he keeps his job.

"He said it’s the fans’ fault because they don’t have a good sixth man," said Mara Altschuler, who has season tickets in the front row near the Knicks’ bench.

Maybe it was just something he blurted out in the heat of the moment given the fact he's a magnet for boo birds these days, but that might just be one of the most ridiculous utterances a coach has ever made.

Reports of villagers storming the Garden with torches could not be confirmed.

Curry really is soft:

December 15, 2007 -- CHICAGO - Knick assistant Mark Aguirre said slumping Eddy Curry may be freaked out by the presence of

Zach Randolph. Aguirre, Curry's mentor, told The Post, “The biggest thing with him is he was deferring the offense to try to fit in with Zach. That is a good thing but it kills him from being totally aggressive like he was last year. He was immensely more aggressive last year than he is now." Curry, who was held scoreless in

last night's 101-96 loss to the Bulls, and Isiah Thomas have denied Randolph's presence is the factor. The Randolph trade was controversial because of speculation Curry would be adversely impacted. “The box was his," Aguirre said. “He owned that. Now he wants it to work. A lot of times he would see a situation and take his man over. He now might defer. “We're going back to basics," Aguirre added. “I think now you'll see him hit people a little harder, go at people more fierce."

Solid win to night vs the Cavaliers. 7 knicks in double figure scoring- hopefully they can turn things around still since the east is so weak.

[shadowgrin]

You have to admit, that LeBron between the legs dribble faking Q and Z-Bo is badass.

If he really started conversing with a fan like the guy says, I'm sure the fan asked him how he feels about getting booed so often and his response was "well you guys certainly haven't been a good sixth man for us" with his half smile on his face. I don't believe at all that he actually tried to insinuate that it was the fans fault.

The other night a fan got thrown out of the Garden for having a sign that read "Fire Isiah and trade Stephon.". And last night they had a little protest in front of the Garden calling for Isiahs firing.

Needless to say, everyones fed up with this shit. I can't wait until the Nets move to Brooklyn, the Nets have a very good chance of becoming New Yorks team if you ask me.

All the protesting from fans and media won't do a damn thing, stack. It makes Dolan more determined to stick with Isiah. But he'll notice empty seats at MSG. We have to ignore the Knicks - don't go to games, don't watch them on TV and don't buy any merchandise.

[Klayface]

Until the Nets move to Brooklyn I don't see much happening at all, but its nice to see Knick fans sort of come together. I've only watched 3 games this entire season, literally. Before the season started I bought a whole bunch of coupons for Knicks tickets for 30 bucks, thats about all the money the Knick'll be getting from me.

[Amphatoast]

8-21, will they finish worst than larry brown's season? this is so embarrassing, 25 wins seems like a long shot

[Klayface]

Every time they fix the "problem" it just gets worse. We had a better record when we had Layden for crying out loud.

NYK to trade Zach to Milwaukee
latest rumor
http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archi ... milwaukee/

I do not think this will happen because I can not see who the Bucks could trade fpr Z-Bo (Redd ??)

[BIG GREEN]

Yea...cause randolph is worth Redd

[CMJ3]

Why would Milwaukee do that when they have Yi, Bogut and Charlie V is doesnt seem logical at all??

[Klayface]

The only place Isiah could send Zach is the bench. Nobody in their right mind would trade for him, or (just about) any other Knick for that matter.

[shadowgrin]

And the Knicks already have enough guards that can only score and nothing else.

[Donatello]

I have one thing to say


lol knicks

[deihatein]

The Knicks team should be removed from the NBA because of many people lolling team right?

[Jackal]

We "lol" a lot at Philipino's, let's just remove all of them from earth. Right?

[Jeffx]

Curry & Randolph for sale!!! No GM is as dumb as Zeke, so I doubt there'll be any takers.

[Sauru]

what kind of contracts do they have?

[Bruce]

I think Curry could still be attractive to some teams. take for instance the raptors, they can trade nesterovic+trade fodder for curry. And curry could still be a good inside scoring presence for them. And then there is the spurs, who have pieces to trade.

Randolph on the other hand is simply cancer. About the only other player he could be traded for is kenyon martin, but their contracts are similar. This trade scenario have surfaced in the past, but this trade is more about exchanging headaches for GMs.
