Good luck

As you have noticed I haven't put up any posts in quite awhile. Well, that's because there is no way in hell I am going to sit here and write 60 of the same articles about how pathetic the Knicks are. Just not going to do it.

I am motivated to write something today because of how significant a day of demarcation this is going to be in future Knicks history.

Tonight will be the last time Carmelo Anthony is seen in a Knicks uniform this season.

As I told you months ago when his knee began to bark that Anthony would prolong the surgery just to make an appearance in the All-Star game. Selfish? Yes, but look at who we are talking about.

Also, today is probably the last day, or weekend that Amare' Stoudemire will be a Knick.

It is very likely that the Knicks and Amare' will agree to a buy out and allow Amare' to move on to a contender seeking a ring before he retires from the league.

Many people in this city are still hopeful that embracing losing in hopes for more ping pong balls and Jackson's questionable trades thus far will lead them to the promise land. If not, I can see James Dolan writing nasty emails to Phil Jackson instead of diehard fans who question his ability to manage the Knicks simply based upon his membership in the lucky sperm club.

However you slice it you Knicks fans have endured a lot but brace yourselves because you have about four more years of this before things begin to turn around.

Good luck.

He's going to be the size of the Hindenburg

Before last nights loss to Memphis Phil Jackson attempted a new strategy to help the team. I think it's called minimalism.

That's right addition by subtraction.

Phil got the Knicks in a three way deal with the Cavaliers and Oklahoma that sent Shumpert and JR Smith to Cleveland for a bunch off stiffs that will be razed and a 2016 draft pick I think coming from OKC.

Dalembert was such an upgrade over Tyson Chandler that he's being simply released today.

So with Andrea Bargnani, Anthony and Stoudemire sitting out due to injury you Knicks fans should see some very interesting games through the end of the season.

Speaking of Anthony, how selfish is it of him to delay surgery just so he can participate in the all star festivities.

We all know when he stops running he's going to be the size of the Hindenburg when it reached Long Island.

Why not do it now so he can recuperate before the spring and be in top shape for camp? Oh no. He has his millions and he has his way. Every move Phil has made including re-signing Carmelo has been nothing but a complete cluster fuck. And let's not even talk about that head coach of yours.

What a disaster.

No fight in'em

I needed to wait until I actually saw yesterday's game against the Wizards before writing a post. It's only fair that I suffer with the rest of you if I am going to be so critical right?!?

Well, I got to see the condensed version of the game on NBA Rewind which the NBA saw fit to censor the skirmish between John Wall and Quincy Acy. As if the entire world had no idea that the shoving took place but whatever.

It was funny watching John Wall abuse Jose Calderon.

The same Jose Calderon who went back and forth last year from back up point on the Mavericks to third string, the position Raymond Felton now holds with the Mavs at half the price and four years younger.

The zen master gave Felton no compassion or benefit of redemption after Felton went through a season of physical pain from a leg injury and mental anguish when his no good wife left him.

This same she devil delivered a weapon that Raymond owned legally in South Carolina to a precinct in New York City claiming that Raymond brought the pistol to New York illegally getting him in to the trouble that Jackson had to run him off the team over. 

Jose Calderon is here because Phil Jackson's knee jerk reaction to get rid of the bad vibe on the team went against all basket ball logic.

Calderon was brought here under the guise of being better to run the triangle offense which the Knicks have now completely abandoned.

Along with Felton, Tyson Chandler was also shipped off the Dallas to get the balance of the locker room back in order and Chandler is again having an all star season. You can't make this stuff up.

In order to catch the Wall vs. Acy skirmish I had to run the entire game and fast forward to the last few minutes of the fourth quarter.

Acy fouled him hard and Wall jumped up as if he wanted a piece. However when he saw and felt the fury of Acy he quickly sought the help of his teammates and refs. Acy got the help of none of his teammates during the raucous.

After the fighting was over Anthony did walk Acy down the court talking to him but he wanted nothing to do with that fight. Like all the Knicks who wanted nothing to do with fighting on court all season.
