Droidz1979 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 uh-oh! donnie walsh no longer GM of knicks. what's gonna happen next? isaiah coming back?! Was also saddened to hear that Donnie's not gonna be back next season since he basically has to drag New York back from mediocrity to where it is now and where it could be headed with 2 superstars in tow (Amare and Melo), some great finds from the draft (Fields, Douglas), trade (Bill Walker and Ronnie Turiaf) and free agency (Shawne Williams) and some wiggle room and a cap space to further improve its players in the near future. But I doubt it if Zeke would be able to mount a comeback at New York since i've read that his being considered to coach for Detroit. So good luck with that Quote Link to comment
satnight Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Now that season 2010-2011 is over and a new team has won the championship.....lets go KNICKS! Quote Link to comment
dencio Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 The new Knicks management should seriously re-consider the Miami Heat model that they're trying to emulate. Having 3 big stars with little help will win games but does not guarantee a championship. Quote Link to comment
denimhead Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 they shld go for the Boston version Quote Link to comment
denimhead Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 a solid team behind the Big 3 works ... and the 3 gotta have defined roles Quote Link to comment
jopoc Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 (edited) ^^ That one worked! for 1 year. the "boston model" still failed to make the dynasty expected from it. new york should not only have a big 3, but also a bunch of good role players. the miami model would have worked if not for a choker.

dencio Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 ^^ Dynasty nga ba expectation? "At this juncture, it’s wise to remember that when the Big Three were put together, it was a universal assumption that there was a three-year window in which to win a title. They got it done in Year 1, and have kept a nice thing going into Year 4." http://articles.boston.com/2011-05-13/sports/29540745_1_paul-pierce-big-three-dave-gavitt/3 "When Danny Ainge assembled Boston's new Big Three prior to the 2007-2008 season, he stressed that Garnett, Allen and Pierce held a three-year window. This trio of veterans would have those three years to fight for what had eluded each of them over their respective NBA lifetimes: A championship." http://bleacherreport.com/articles/550794-boston-celtics-winning-beyond-danny-ainges-three-year-window Even diehard fans like Bill Simmons didn't have dynasty in mind: "Now it looks like they can contend in the East. Now the Celtics are on TNT and ESPN for more than two appearances." http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/070730 Quote Link to comment
friendly0603 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I guess that 3 year window is expectation to win by the 3rd year. More margin/allowance for developing chemistry/right mix of additional role players. But when they won on the first year, I guess dynasty was already being thought of especially since they didn't break up the big 3 after 3 years, right? Quote Link to comment
jopoc Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 ^^ Dynasty nga ba expectation? there was the expectation..... 1."The Boston Globe's Bob Ryan, longtime keeper of the flame, compared them tothe great '86 team with its four-Hall-of-Famer front line of Larry Bird,Kevin McHale, Robert Parish and Bill Walton. Another Globe story noted: "The overwhelming feeling is that they can't getmuch better." 2.Just three years ago, the Boston Celtics made multiple blockbuster deals that immediately put them at the top of the NBA, as they acquired all-Stars Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to play alongside the face of the franchise, Paul Pierce. After the “Big Three” dominated the league in their first year together, ultimately winning the 2008 NBA title, it seemed as if the Celtics had a dynasty in the making. However, that idea of a dynasty slowly deteriorated as the Celtics were defeated by the Orlando Magic in the 2009 Eastern Conference Finals, and the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2010 NBA Finals. Then came the Wednesday night loss, which marked the earliest that the Celtics were defeated in a playoff series since the inception of the Big Three in Boston. 3.DynastiesThe creation of a dynasty appeared to change in 2005. In 2005 and 2007, the San Antonio Spurswon their third and fourth championship in nine seasons under Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili. In 2008, the Boston Celtics established their own Big 3 by adding Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to Paul Pierce Quote Link to comment
KareemJabbar Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 They should ask CP3 or Deron to join Amare and Melo. In my opinion, hindi uubra ang Dwade-Lebron-Bosh kina Melo-Amare-CP3. Dahil may magaling na PG ang Knicks pag nakuha nila si CP3. Quote Link to comment
dencio Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 there was the expectation..... 1. 2. 3. Thanks for the interesting articles. Personally, foisting "dynasty" expectations on any team after winning one championship is premature. Anyway, OT na 'to so pasensya na lang sa mga Knicks fans. Quote Link to comment
MagicMass Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Personally i think they have done well. I know the NBA is a win now league, but if you want to build something meaningful, you don't just throw money at the problem and expect to solve it. Winning a championship takes time, effort and luck. Since they acquired Melo and Amare, they have finally looked dangerous. This year, they got Tyson Chandler. I know he's no CP3 but he will make an impact. Barring injuries, they should win more games. The playoffs though are different. Quote Link to comment
MagicMass Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Finally, after so many games the Knicks win one. Quote Link to comment
pajac24 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 there is a rumor that the orlando magic inquired about tyson chandler and amare stoudemire's availability for dwight howard but the magic denied this, if this goes through deron williams would be an easy target next year since deron has new york on of his wish list Quote Link to comment
SaintPeter5858 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I used to root for this team when I was in Brooklyn for a year Quote Link to comment
MagicMass Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 The Knicks lost again! Is it 9 losses out of 10 games? Its something like that. These guys have to play better without Melo. Quote Link to comment

Droidz1979 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Link on my take of the recent LIN-sanity express that has engulfed NBA : http://manilatonight.com/index.php?showtopic=51814&st=100&gopid=8117666&&do=findComment&comment=8117666 Got some decent pics too.. too bad this site has been left for dead with a post such as fire the coach left prior. Jared Jeffries just said that he'd bled on the court for his coach after D' Antoni defended him from the fans that boo him at the garden after coming back to the Knicks at a vet's min. and playing his heart out night in and out. Besides, J-Lin's game is best suited to D' Antoni's offense so i won't have it any other way. Quote Link to comment
Mehdi! Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Finally, the Knicks get a guard without additional baggage. Quote Link to comment
Droidz1979 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Finally, the Knicks get a guard without additional baggage. You could already hope that the curse of Isiah Thomas has already been lifted.. Hopefully, D' Antoni would get a contract extension with this winning streak. The offense orchestrated by J-Lin and the defense that they've shown anchored by the likes of Tyson Chandler, Iman shupert and Jared Jeffries as well as their defensive coordinator Mike Woodson (ex Atlanta Hawks coach) has made New York the dark-horse for the semis. Knicks are finally back! Quote Link to comment
