The worst thing for New York fans is they invested allll season for Zion.

Look brehs, New Orleans knows your pain. We were ALL IN on a Super Bowl last season. I mean all in. So to get close to it and have it taken from you in a SECOND is gut wrenching and heart breaking.

...least we took something yall invested in fair and square though. :mjgrin:

It may stop some tanking but it will encourage trying to have the worst record. If you're not the worst you can fall out of top 5 :picard:
With an 82 game season and guaranteed deals, there aren’t many viable ways to deter tanking in a top heavy sport like basketball. I always suggest flipping the lottery around where the best records of non playoff teams get the best odds. At the very least it should encourages teams to try winning games.

cleveland blatantly tanked, isn't that part of why JR left?

NY tanked for obvious reasons and they're a trash ort

PHX is just trash
We did not tank

We were young and developing. If we were tanking we would have held onto KP longer knowing he wasn’t going to play this season.

Lol at Jordan saved them. That can be said about any team that has won championships in the last 40 years. How many teams have won the title in the last 40 years?

The Bulls have been more competitive than the Knicks have been since Jordan left, they have just lost to better teams. How many years have the Knicks been to playoffs or competitive since MJ left?

The Knicks have been a clown show for about 15 or 20 years

Thanks for taking Eddy Curry and Noah off our hands:salute:

You making this a competition huh?

All of your success is concentrated in one decade where you were blessed with the greatest of All-Time.

In the millennium y’all had some good years when Rose was there outside of that y’all been treadmill and lottery status with some of the worst management and bad luck.

The Knicks are worse than the Bulls is that what you want to hear?

No fukking rule changes or rigging will make incompetent fools that run some of these franchises suddenly better. NO is about to surround Zion with Evan Turner level overpaid young guys and have him leave the team in 4-5 years. Imagine you just win the lottery to draft a franchise player and your current franchise player AD still wants to leave your team :mjlol:

11 different teams have won the title since 1980 provided the warriors repeat. That’s not bad honestly. He’s right though. The bulls have been bad for the majority of the last 20 years. Post Jordan they’ve reached the conference finals once, won 4 total playoff series in the last 21 seasons, and have 5 seasons of at least 59 losses in that span. Neither team has been good overall during the last 21 years :manny:
