    I’m 26 years old and for as long as I can remember being a Knicks fan was always disappointing. Even when we got Melo we stripped the team down so much to land him in a trade that it didn’t allow for us to build around him and really compete against any of the other Eastern Conference teams of that era. But this Knicks team we have now is the best team we have had in my lifetime. I love every guy on this roster and love how they play together and seem to want to win as a team. They play basketball in such a beautiful way playing defense and moving the ball. We got ourselves a true superstar in Brunson who can drop 40 when need be or sit back and play so smartly that his teammates flourish because of it. We may not have drafted him but he embodies the spirit of what it means to be a Knick.

      A Tale of Two Fans: I saw Clyde play live at the Garden when I was a kid. Don't remember a thing but it goes to show what this dude has seen. I think it's the best team since the championship team. Ewing's Knicks were tough and could battle anyone (but Jordan) in the league, but that team was ALL defense and scoring points was quite often a chore. It just wasn't that talented. This team is so much more well-rounded and talented it isn't even funny. It also has a few guys that are beasts in crunch time. Playoffs will tell a lot, but if they're healthy I expect them to get to the Finals, at least.

    I'm old enough to remember the championship teams of the early '70s. It's been ages since the Knicks were fun to watch. Even the Knicks of the '90s were a physical, brutal team at times; but not a fun watch. This Knicks team plays a team-based game that I haven't seen in 50 years. Brunson is a revelation.

  • @bxrider6

    I'm a life long Knick fan from your same era. I remember Bernard's 50 point back to back game. I remember Ewing being drafted. I was crushed when Ewing did the finger roll shot instead of the dunk at the end of the iconic game and the Knicks lost. My kids are 18 and 15 and they will tell you how every year I say this is the Knicks year. I thought last year was our best chance to make it to the eastern conference finals and Miami was just to strong for us. However this year is special. We are a solid team without some key members. When those members get back to health and if it this year the Knicks will win the East and I'm going to say it win it all. I look forward to that parade. See you there Rich.

    I'm glad to see Brunson is getting some attention. I loved what he was doing for the Mavs and really felt that was a mistake to let a spark plug player like him go. How they thought they would find a better match for Luka, I will never understand. He brought a champion's toughness and focus that was and is lacking. There has been a glaring hole in the roster since he left.

    Tom Thibodeau needs to talk to the referees about the way opposing players have been physically going after Brunson before he ends up on the disabled list. Brunson has been taking a major beating and getting knocked down on a regular basis. Someone needs to address this before the Knicks lose their star player to an injury. It's okay to play physical, but I think players are taking it too far, especially in Brunson's case 🏀
