Still never understood that Hill pick.
Knicks passing up Kenneth Faried hurts the most though

Me too man, he would have been perfect for this squad.
Knicks never know what they're doing in a draft.

whats wrong with gallo? He was actually a pretty good pick. Unlike Jordan Hill
Gallo never panned out to be the "next" Dirk, like he was supposed to be. What the Knicks really needed at the time was a PG at the time.
I think the reason why we took Hill was in preparation of David Lee leaving. We needed a big and Hill was actually a big time player in college.

I'm not mad, because a lot of other teams passed up on Faired. No one thought he was going to be this crazy hustle player.
Can't overlook what we did in the draft though. We picked up a lot of great guys.
I.E. Shumpert, Chandler, Ariza, Nate Robinson, David Lee, Frye (too bad for his health condition this year), and Fields before Melo came along.
People will always remember the Fredick Weis, Michael Sweetney and Frank Williams picks though
Every team makes a miss in the draft. Not like we always draft bums every year.

I will stick with Shump. Cause if we get Faried we probably don't get Chandler and Fields is probably still a Knick. :x
Shump will have a better career imo than Faried

I figured they were that all season and definitely before this game. The Knicks W didn't change much.
Off of an ACL injury though. Yall ****** is impatient.

I still got plenty of faith in Shumpert, I really like the dude, I agree many need to be patient. But Faried will be a better player.

Shump is struggling... you guys do realize they amputated his entire leg and replaced it right? first one didn't even take. fell off while filming one of his hip-hop videos.
And please do not discuss who we should've drafted. Any one we did take would have been traded for Melo (assuming we still wanted to trade for him).

The minute Shump learns how to finish properly (if he does) he'll be leaps and bounds better than what he is. He can get to the rim whenever he wants....but he spazzes once he gets there

All this crazy talk about college fans rushing the court is on the radio. Got me thinking, would it ever happen in the NBA? Security is so damn tight. But I guarantee if the Knicks ever win a championship, they're rushing that court from everywhere, no ones stopping the fans on that day.

I was watching random highlights of Melo in his younger days and I have no idea how this man has lost his ability to finish so easily. Son was taking people off the dribble and fnishing two handed with no problem. It's weird.

Age. Plus becoming a better shooter now. I can see Melo lasting much longer in his career than other more athletic dependant players.
I can see him being more affective than say dwade at 34 or 35

Is there info on that? I remember the games when NBA fans rushing the court in the 80s and prior was a natural thing. Then all of a sudden it stopped. Did one crazy fan attack a player or something? or did the league just smarten up and realize what kind of threat that was?
And yeah Knicks fans are definitely doing if we win a chip No question.

Ever since Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, and Michael Jordan became god-like entities and fans started to idolize players there on out, it stopped.
It almost happened with the Celtics in 2008, but the Celtic security was deep. That was after 20 years of no chip.
Knicks has been 40 years, security doesn't have a shot. I'm rushing the court, I don't care. Just please god make it within the next 10 years.

I guy can dream. If the Knicks end up in a Final's winning game, I will find a way to get to that game.
Doubt anyone would rush the court. Security is too tight, especially in the Garden.

Na, I'm getting on the court and I'm bringing everyone with me. All the die-hard fans from the upper sections would do the same. Spike better watch out.
