I have not written in quite a while, things have gotten so bad that even the most die hard NYK fan such as myself can not stand to watch his beloved team anymore. So what will it take to MEANINGFULLY change the current state of affairs in NY?

There’s been a number of reports about David Stern and Charles Dolan chatting it up. Sounds like little Jimmy might be in trouble.
Well, remember the “progress reports” that our grade school teachers mailed to our parents when we screwed up in class? I got blindsided by a few of them in my years myself. A KnicksOnline.com investigation uncovered a fresh one sent straight to Daddy Dolan himself! Check out what David Stern has to say about Charles's misfit son!

Knicks looking good after two preseason wins over Philadelphia (101-92) and Maccabi Tel Aviv(112-85). In both wins the Knicks performed well. With contributions from the starters and the bench, as well as some valuable contributions from the rookies. But these wins didn't come against the "NBA elite" They came against a struggling NBA team and against a foreign team. Yes they crushed Tel Aviv, and that was bound to happen. The Knicks are an NBA team.

Season is just around the corner! Finally some basketball. There should be some last minute trade buzz around the league in coming weeks. The Knicks have to be among those teams most talked about they have a ton of players. Thank god for preseason basketball. Is it just me or was anyone else getting tired of all the off court issues. I don't have much to say about those issues except that they are office related. I'm a basketball fan. I just can't wait for the focus to switch back to basketball. I am not going to concern myself with the non basketball related business operations of MSG.

Do not blame Isiah! It is primarily Layden’s fault, with a little help from Brown.

The following history is lengthy, but I have always felt that the media was unfair to Isiah so I decided to do some homework.

Scott Layden was hired as General Manager on August 11, 1999. He replaced Ed Tapscott who was an interim General Manager. Tapscott’s parting gift was selecting Frederic Weis over Ron Artest in the 1999 draft.
