Zeke got the short end in a few things. First he's wrongly remembered as having said Bird would be ordinary if he were white*. Second, how could he not have been on the dream team? The guy should be seen as on par with Bird and Magic. He could have been an MVP if he hadn't sacrificed stats to win. I say give him a little bit more time.
Last year was mostly a bad Coach selection that seemed okay going in. given your guards, Larry wasn't going to work. That might be easier to see now. But you do have some talented players.
* a google search for "isiah thomas larry bird ordinary black" gives over 13000 hits. ummmm. he never said that. to the contrary.

I have tried and tried and tried to stop liking the Knicks. But I always put the game on anyway. It's like a sickness. Is that how it is with you and the Lions?

no. The Lions are a joke, and I only watch them to see what they'll do next. It truly is a jinxed team. they bring in coaches that have done well elsewhere, and the poor guys can't get anything done, and eventually leave in disgrace.
What you're going through is what I had with the Tigers from about 88 to 98. I was forever hopeful. Then after about 10 years the hope died. The Knicks haven't sucked long enough yet for you to quit.
