Phil needs some lessons from Sam hinkie. How to behave while tanking.

Is Fisher the weakest HC of the league? Man dude is being paid to play a pawn.

He's been a horrible GM. The deals he has done lowered the quality of the current team with all they have to look forwards to is cap space and the high draft pick they'll get for sucking. And what I would find annoying if I was a Knick player is that he's consistently made trades that decreased the talent level, created a tanking situation and then criticizes the team he built to lose for doing what they were made to do. When a sorry team faces a good team they get destroyed. That's just how it works. If he wanted to see them improve he should have done his job and brought in some talent.

The criticism isn't even constructive. He's not pointing out things that players should be doing differently he's making vague references to the "basketball gods" and what "It" takes.

Five years, 60 million.

I couldn't agree more. I have no idea why Phil is lashing out at this team that he has obviously built to tank. Doesn't make any sense.

I guess he can't have good assistant coaches to help him win games as a GM like he did as a coach.

Phil cant be graded until after the 2015 draft and 2015 off season signings.

Agreed, and it's yet another prime example of the fact that just because you can coach, doesn't mean your ability to evaluate talent and or put together a team is worth jack shit.

And it's the same exact concept with players. Just because you can play doesn't mean you can coach, analyze the game or put together a team.

What I'm saying is that just because someone may have been associated with pro basketball for the longest time... it doesn't mean their opinion means jack shit.

"DURR DURR I'D TAKE KEVIN DURANT'S OPINION ON OTHER PLAYERS OVER YOURS BECAUSE YOU'VE NEVER PLAYED IN THE NBA AND HE'S AN ALL STAR THAT PLAYS AGAINST EVERYONE ELSE NIGHTLY HURR DURR."

That's the kind of idiocy that drives me up a wall. Oh well. Kbye.

This.

That roster was built to win 0 games.

To get on Knicks fans good side, he needs to release Bargnani.

[iamgine]

He also did and say some strange things when he was coaching.

Things that makes you think...is he an idiot?

At the end of the day, you gotta give him a lot of slack because of his reputation of getting result while doing things that seems dumb.

just from reading this, it'd make you think that hockey and basketball are two very different sports because of the Gods, and not the nature of the sport in itself
