Spree was one hell of a talent/player. If only we would have landed Sprewell before 98... The Knicks would have won a ring. I honestly believe that.
I loved that era of the 99 Knicks featuring guys like Van Gundy, Ewing (aging), Sprewell, Houston, Camby, LJ, Kurt Thomas, Childs/Ward & even Dudley (lol) I loved that team with everything I had & enjoyed those crazy Miami Heat rivalries; I'll never forget Houston with the game winner, Childs punching Kobe, JVG hanging on the leg of Mourning, LJ's 4 pt play, Sprewell lighting it up etc etc but nothing can come close to the era that I grew up with Riley, Ewing of his prime, Starks, Oakley, Mason, Charles Smith, Harper/Hubert & old man Herb! We had WARS with the Bulls & Pacers. Went from a kid to an older teen with those guys.
Ewing, Starks, Oakley, Sprewell & Houston are my top 5 Knicks (that I've seen) of all-time. Great thread & Spree cracks my top 5 all day. Mason, Harper, LJ, Camby & Childs round out my top 10.
I always wanted some Sprewell spinners lol
