It was fun up until we got swept broomstick butt raped by bumston
I think that was even fun, its been so long since I actually cared about the playoffs
First 2 games were fun for sure. RIght now I feel a bit like throwing up. Honestly.
I've got to say.. wasn't that a fun ride this year? I can't remember a season that I've enjoyed to watch this much in a very long time. To make the playoffs for once was great, and for all the crappy seasons we had, we should be grateful we wont over 30 games!
Knicks should draft Patric Young as a Ben Wallace Charles Oakley Anthony Mason type enforcer.
The Celtics got away with dirty plays that injured both Billups and Douglas (he played with a bum shoulder after Garnett tripped him up, hence his terrible shooting in the last three games, affected his defense also).
Meanwhile Carmelo gets called for a flagrant 1 for minor body contact on a contested shot.
But even with the uneven officiating playing field, you can bet that a hard-nosed defender like Young would have found a way to retaliate and injure Rondo or Garnett or Pierce (Davis and Allen played clean and would not have deserved it).
I'd rather be a lottery team and have the chance to get Kyrie Irving or Kemba Walker than getting swept in the first round. A sweep is like no postseason at all or actually even worse, because of the anticlimax.
The only thing I'm happy about is that we landed Melo in february and the fact STAT had a great regular season.
Apart from that, not much to cheer about. We don't have a center, we don't have a shooting guard and Billups is not what we need at point guard.
I think we have about 4 players on our roster that should return next year: STAT, Melo, Turiaf and Shawne Williams.
Douglas and Carter are possibilities - that would take it to 6.
Release all other guys, they're completely useless and won't take us anywhere.
Sign DeAndre Jordan and trade for Chris Paul, fill the roster with veterans on minimum contracts like Eddie House, TMac etc.
One thing that became obvious in the playoffs is that we need more quality on our roster. Apart from our superstars we have nothing. Especially the bench is way too weak in terms of scoring.
WOW, what fan you are. You'd rather have the Cavs record than the Knicks'. get outta here man.
ya i dont really get all the bumming... we made the playoffs...its what was expected at the beginning of the season and i thought we had some real good games like beating the spurs at home... never woulda thought that could happen... i like where were at... not where we ended... but where were at
