I would love to make the playoffs, but honestly lets be real.....
Basketball IS PREDICTABLE.....or I should say the NBA is predictable. When is the last time you have been shocked at who won the Finals? It doesnt happen, this is NOT THE NFL where ANYONE that makes the playoffs has a shot, and it sucks that we are still pretty far away from being a team with a REAL chance.
Now, I still want to make the playoffs, it would be great and a nice change from sitting home watching other teams instead, but the goal is becoming a true contender and championship caliber team, not a middle of the pack team that might win a series before going home and thats there ceiling. IMO, a team without D will NEVER win a title, its just not going to happen so if MDA doesnt change up his style it is pointless to keep him around.
Problem is, there is no guarentee that he gets fired is we dont make the playoffs. In the end, its up to the Owner to realize what is best for the team and make the moves needed to get us where we need to be. I cant root against the Knicks, I will root for them from here on out as usual, but I just hope our owner gets us to the point in the next year or two where we are a TRUE CONTENDER.
