Knicks Hire Larry Brown

I am an unabashed Knicks fan. Have been since the mid 80's. They were pretty bad back then, but were still exciting. They are bad now, maybe worse than back then because at least you knew that that team was going to get better.

Being a NYK fan, I have often disliked Larry Brown because it seems that his teams always gave the Knicks fits i.e. Ewings fingeroll miss to eliminate the Knicks, Indiana was the Knicks biggest rival besides Chicago with Jordan. The Sixers and Pistons under Brown also had their number.

I certainly prefer Brown to Phil Jackson. I think that Larry Brown will teach these guys how to play. Will they make the playoffs this year.... maybe, but get taken out in the first round. I like the fact that people have at least put their reputations on the line here. This marriage fails and Isiah and Brown are both gone and we go into a total rebuild, which is not the end of the world. After the last few years of watching these gimpy, soft, unintelligent teams run up and down the court trading baskets with teams, we might actually get some sort of polished game where someone actually plays a little D.

Expect half of these guys to be gone in 2 months:

Good Luck Larry, nice to have you on our side! If you can polish this turd into a championship, I'll come to the ticker tape parade. Hopefully, you can do what Mike Keenan did for the Rangers.
