Stunts, Blunts & Basketball: The 2013-14 New York Knicks Season Thread

[Money!!]

Foster added that the Rockets informed him that they were going to foul before the play. So the refs were going to call the first contact they saw

 

[FreshFromATL]

We want our rematch

 

[Oroko Saki]

I see the Kings are interested in Shumpert...how about

Shump, Felton, TH Jr and Chandler for Isiah Thomas, Cousins, etc.

*edit*

OK before anyone calls me out obviously we aint gettin cousins. But I think Isiah thomas might be worth at least looking into

 

[mvp_status]

I'm saying.

Sounds good nikka.

Except you didnt blow the whistle after the 1st hack

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Can we kill the trade talks please. We're only 3-5. That 18-6 start from last season got a lot of ya'll spoiled. Right now is not the time to be stressing or talking trades. Now if the struggles continue into January & once Tyson backs, then you start to look around. It's not even Thanksgiving yet & people are acting as if the season is doomed . I thought ya were smarter than that.

I understand the people saying let's not panic yet. But I also see why other are looking at the situation like it is doomsday.

Let's take a look...

The owner - This has always been a problem. Regardless of his willingness to spend, he acts like a spoiled rich kid playing 2k14 gm mode. You're having hissy fits with your players? Which makes you so vindictive that you pet them on the trading block spontaneously.

He is incompetent.

The coach and staff - So let me get this Straight. .. You state from the beginning that you're going to make the guards compete for playing time. ..
Sounds good. .. but one of your guards. Stays the season off audience, has a Terrible First game, threatens someone on Twitter and you start them anyway? I feel you b...

The players - I really can't hate on Melo or Bargnani... their playing to their skill set. Melo is almost putting up a double double a game.

Felton though? Such a disappointment. I never expected him to be a top 5 pg... But he could be serviceable. He's just mentally weak. How many times a game is dude going to throw up his arms and friends a game when a player blows part him, when a foul isn't called or just when he starts giving up on himself? He is the floor general, keep a fukking poker face and don't let your soldiers see you giving up. Man the fukk up.

Shump - what can I say? You are no where near the defensive stopper you looked like you were becoming. Maybe it is the in fighting with the coach and owner. I really wanted you to be apart of the future if this organization but honestly shump... [whispering] fukk the knicks, a trade would probably be better for you and the knickd

Stat - I love you but either put 110% in your 10 mins or retire. At this point we are playing you out of respect, not out of rotational efficency. That's a problem.

JR Smith - You are becoming the nba version of Lenny Cook... all that fukking talent yet you don't have your mind right... This whole dream could be taken away from you and you'll find you and your brother co coaching a team in Newark talking about "Man, I was almost a superstar. "

vazquez would be my choice

 

[The War Report]

I'll take Isiah Thomas and Jason Thompson.

Knicks and Brooklyn have the same record
Chicago is only one game over .500
Pacers feasting over struggling teams to get to 9-0 (which might include us on Wednesday)

Shump is on the way out, JR will be our starting SG regardless if he shoots 20% from the field this whole season. When Tyson comes back hes starting along side Bargs, which leaves Shump coming off the bench.. When we do run plays, Shump never gets anything called for him. JR got some plays and even Timmy got some plays. I honestly feel at this point, shump will be better off on a new team, where he can grow as a player. Standing in the corner and shooting 3s aint doing nothing for the kid. I personally think Shump dont look as good as usual on D because we have no second line of D, like when you beat Tony Allen you run in to Gasol, when you get passed Paul George you run into the wall of Hibbert, and when you get passed Shump its open lane to hoop or clumsy bargs who cant move side ways.

A thought...
If Knickerbocker was a nation...

How long before King Dolan's car would be bombed?
