MUGGED

Howdy gents

hope you guys are well and not too fucking cabin-fevered.

I got a feeling we get a blast from your past coming up with some Knicks-Bulls hi-lights and low-lights in The Last Dance.

No fouls on Charles Smith?

All clean?

Nothing but ball?

that was a bad loss

stay healthy and wear your masks.

and you might want to pull the mask over your eyes for that Charles Smith sequence

Thanks BANKS. 

Charles Smith was MUGGED.

Repeatedly.  Mugged, just this side of anal penetration. 

He did not deserve the agita heaped on him.

Anymore than Bill Buckner did. 

If you watch that Knicks-Bulls game, the Knicks as a team clanked so many fucking foul shots leading up to that conclulsive series of NO CALLS, it is no wonder it came down a ref's fear sightedness. 

Much as everyone jumps on Buckner, without whom, there's have been no trip to the 1986 World Series. 

Want to castigate someone.  Much as with the Knicks, a team effort...that Idiot Manager...Calvin Schrlaldi staring into the headlights...Bob "Oh No...OH NO" Stanley. 

Did I mention how the RED SOX manager was a damn fool?

PS: Knicks-Bulls.  Would love to see a replay of Bernard, Sly, Ray and Mister Bill in that seven game epic against the Celtics, in which neither team could overcome the frenzied crowds on the ofay's home court.  Bernard was HEROIC.

I like this write-up.  Haven't heard of this guy, point forward from Arkansas

Played for one of my coaching faves, Musselman.

Interesting.  A little undersized. 

Perhaps someone to look out for in the second round. 

Still, we have Knox, Brazdeikis, Bullock, RJ. 

Have you scouted any of the second-tier PGs?  Fran Fresh Gorilla is on record as believing that the Knicks should not reach for a PG in the TOP 10, but zero in on the very best player, period, and look to snatch a sleeper with the Clippers' first rounder.

I'm generally in the "Let'em play/put the whistles away" school of reffing, so banging under the boards in a 1 pt game with no whistles is ok with me. I just remember watching that sequence almost in disbelief that Smith had a gazillion chances to win the game.

as for idiot Sox managers making questionable decisions in huge game, Sox fans have had choices. :)

I got to see games 4 and 6 at MSG of that series, Two really good games. King was special. He ate Cornbread that series.   

Stay well Chip

Guess they're dead set on not only having a playoffs but completing the regular season down in Disneyworld in order to determine lottery odds.

The Knix and Hammon would be a total mistake.
We don't need more distractions.
We don't have a stable anything for her to work with.
A rook HC isn't good idea at this point.

Atkinson was a rookie HC as was Miller.  You gotta start somewhere.

Peyton Pritchard -  thumbs up




I like Tre Jones a bit


Cassius Winston, sure -

- both battle tested.  Winston more seasoned.



Know nothing of Malachi Flynn, who is getting more ink than these three

Atkinson was a rookie HC as was Miller.  You gotta start somewhere.

So was Steve Kerr.

So were hundreds of coaches who flamed out and were never heard from again.

The Knick roster and front office instability and coaching carousel makes this a bad situation for a rook coach.  Miller at least has been with the team as an assistant, so knows the lay of the land.  And coached half a season or how many games he got through.  I'd be fine sticking with him.    Though can't say much stood out about his run.  Atkinson did a fine job with the Nets yute, and the Knix really need to get our yute playing well and together.  Plus he was a NYK assistant and head coach in BKY, so can deal with NYC.  Seems the obvious, logical choice.  Maybe 3 or 4 years form now, we'd be ready for Thibs.  Or maybe Miller/Atkinson can lead us through. 


Since JVG left in 2002, Knix have had 10 coaches.  And I didn't count interims such as Herb or Rambis.  10 coaches in 19 years ...

too simplistic

I give any coach, rook or otherwise - a chance.

Prefer a guy with plenty of  experience?  Sure - But hire Musselman and I am thrilled.   Hire Jay Wright?  I'm pretty happy (spare the "he's not coming").   Jalen Rose?   Bring him on.

Jalen Rose?

I'd take Patrick Ewing first ...

Btw, Kerr was smart enough to stay away from Phil and the muddled Knix.

I dont think Pat has shown himself to be a good coach or even a  good leader of men.

KERR has never done anything east coast

Would have been a real surprise if Phil landed him.
