[The Gold Standard]

I am so sick of the Knicks. They are awful. I thought they might be decent this year. They had a good offseason, but they just stink. There is no way Carmelo will want to come here next year.

Yeah, was watching them on NBA TV before the Lakers game. It's like they have zero chemistry as a team.

They play no defense. Felton cannot get the ball to Amare on the pick and roll. Chandler thinks he is Reggie Miller shooting all these threes.

I was never a fan of the D'Antoni signing as coach, nor the Gallo pick. Ironically, I wanted Avery Johnson and Brook Lopez. Avery teaches defense and it is always good to have a good center.

The front office is just awful. Their scouts are terrible as well.

2006: 21st Pick - Renaldo Balkman (Rajon Rondo was picked with the next pick.)
2008: 6th Pick - Danilo Gallinari (Eric Gordon Picked next pick, Brook Lopez 4 picks later.)
2009: 8th Pick - Jordan Hill (Brandon Jennings picked 2 picks later.)

In 2009, they basically chose Toney Douglas over Brandon Jennings because later in the draft they picked Douglas.

They would have had a great core with either Rondo or Jennings next to Lopez. I know it may have not played out that way, but just looking at it. They are just inept.

Definitely had much higher hopes before the season started about what they could do.

Throwing up 3s all game long obviously isn't gonna work with this team. They don't have the guys to do that. But they will keep doing it because thats what D'Antoni does. He really needs to adjust his gameplan based on what this team actually has. Not all his fault obviously, the teams out-hustled on defense all the time still.

I dunno, before the season I thought the Knicks could get off to a good start with the stretch of schedule they had at the beginning. Obviously not the case.
