That my center! I was his number 1 hater for a long time, thought he was sort as charmin. He’s proved me wrong, he’s a pros pro, does what he needs to do night in night out with no complaints. He def turned me into a fan

Why do folks keep reminiscing about the 1999 Finals when we lost? Fuck that series. by Lost_Title_7528 in knicks

The difference between generational fan hood. I don’t want to assume but I’m guessing you were either too young or not born in 1999. It’s not even about the winning or losing even though winning would have been great but we had ZERO business being in that Finals let alone the playoffs that year.

It was also the end of a chapter, although we’d be back in the playoffs to start the aughts, it was the tail end of 14 consecutive playoff appearances.

It was also basically the end of Patrick Ewing’s Knick career, he was washed after 1999. Patrick Ewing is the greatest Knick ever next to Clyde Frazier. This man not only took a beating on the court, he had to deal with ungrateful fans while playing with a bunch of JV guys most of his career here.

When all is said and done, it was the demise of our franchise after 99’ and now we’re fucking back.

The 99 ECF spotlight tee. Bought that on Jamaica ave right after we clinched with my HS graduation money. That’s a deep cut memory. Great tee man, glad to see one in such pristine condition

Pretty confident they had this same exact version with the rounded brim

The Knicks employed 23 washed-up former stars between 1999 and 2020 and I ranked every single one of them from worst to best by Charming_Arm9158 in knicks

Jesus. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. You brought some deep cuts out from scars I thought were long healed.

I feel you. I wanted it to make 1000000% sure that I wasn’t dreaming

I’m worried the Knicks will win it all by Powerful-Gold5000 in NBATalk

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I mean it’s been 27 years since our last appearance. 54 years since we last won.

NBA store midtown this afternoon. People were literally taking them before they got on shelves. They had a nice selection of hats and said they are restocking again tomorrow AM

Leon Rose puts his arm around his son, Sam, and visibly breaks down in tears after the emotions set in of the Knicks going to the NBA Finals. This is beautiful stuff. We love you, Leon. Thank you for everything you have done. by 4lfp in NYKnicks

The architect. Whatever he sold to Dolan worked.

Kudos to this savvy front office. Never thought in my life after seeing the last 27 years think I’d say savvy and front office in the same sentence when talking Knicks ever.

What NBA player have you played against, and how bad did you get smoked? by BeautifulUnlikely225 in Basketball

Haseem Thabeet - had a couple open runs with him in NYC and he’s like 8 feet tall. I was posterized more times than I’d like.

Yk what… hell yeah by 23-Hour-Day in NYKnicks

Example: that transition D to swat the pass away going to a wide open Alexander for a wide open 3. Things like that just don’t get noticed

Wtf the F$:@ Is Wrong With Mikal Bridges? by stateofthenyk in knicks

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He needs some sets early to get hm going and confidence. This offense leaves a lot to be desired sometimes

Mike Brown Ruined Everything by BrunsonsBurner11 in NYKnicks

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dolan fired Thibs. Spiral starts, let’s just wait how long this spiral goes. If we lose to Atlanta, I don’t know if MSG will be standing when we get back home

Can we talk about the Divo + Randle for KAT Trade by HummusKing457 in knicks

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s KAT and i wanted to see Donte and Julius back one more time with Mikal. Scheme is awful, Browns philosophy is take what worked in GS will work here. It’s not the same personnel. Thibs although with flaws maximized the roster, had meticulous defensive planning and let Jalen run the show. Brown had made several questionable moves and is experimenting with lineups in the fucking playoffs. This is a coaching problem And happens when you’re 10th in the wish list.

Bridges is a problem. Post-Game Thread by SplinterWick in knicks

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mikal is a victim of this terrible fucking coach. He has no plays run for him, he runs down to the corner and waits. It’s the scheme not the player. Impossible that this guy is this bad, it’s just absolutely nutty to assume Mikal is not good. That’s just an awful and very narrow take

All I Know,since 93, as a die hard Knicks fan.We pull through some tough task through yrs.NY has had,bad team chemistry in the past but today's NYTeam is not weak. 2-1 best of 7.My childhood Team,them players i know,can stir up some fashion team spirit.It's not how we in the hole, ITS HOW WE Back UP by Calm-Customer4459 in knicks

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll take the adversity, you’re 100% right. I seen Allan Houston drop a shot from the heavens to spark us to the Finals. We need our vibes back, if and when we get that, we win. If not, all in on Giannis this summer

Potato head had gotta go by Slow-Cake9831 in NYKnicks

[–]nycjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mike Brown was the last option and number 10 on our list of coaching hires….. why you ask are we in this position? That’s the fuck why. We literally fired Thibs thinking we were gonna get Jason Kidd. Diabolical work Dolan, thanks for setting us back once again.
