When I was a kid, the Knicks were it man. EVERYBODY loved the Knicks, even though they would break your hurt just about every playoffs. The Knicks now? The are without a doubt the most disastrous team in the history of sport. Every day, I buy the paper and on the back is something more outrageous and unbelievable then the last. I have no idea why they don't have their own reality show...lets look at some of there wildest moments....finishing with the latest craziness.
- Jeff Van Gundy leaves a practice and never returns to the Knicks and abruptly quits mid season.
- They hire Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown, fresh off winning a championship. The players, mainly Marbury, openly bash him and say he is too "hard" on them. He is eventually fired and treated like shit. Enter Isiah Thomas as coach.
- Isiah hires questionable players and winds up with one of the highest payrolls in the NBA. The moves make little to no sense as the Knicks have about 800 guards. Despite the large payroll they fail to make the playoffs and have one of the worse records. They manage to win a few games towards the end and Isiah is rewarded with a huge contract extension.
- Sexual Harassment allegations are brought against Isiah Thomas. Not only was he harassing, but he was saying outrageous things. Like how he doesn't give a fuck about white season ticket holders, and how only black people are allowed to use the term "bitch". He is found guilty. Also Marbury is brought to the stand during this case. He himself banged an intern...According to him he pulled up his huge truck, looked at her and said, "Are you getting in or what?" She got in and no other words were spoken and the sex happened. On his way out of the courtroom Marbury is singing and dancing.
- Marbury does a TV interview that is truly bizarre. When asked about why he did charity work he says, "At first my intentions weren't good." During the interview his wife calls and he refers to her as his "better ho". He also talks about kissing his sister and feeling her "body and soul". He also can not answer if the knicks will be good that season.
- The Knicks pick up Zach Randolph in the off season. A often troubled player with a history of arrests.
- Marbury finds out that Isiah is thinking of benching him so he disappears. Yup. He just leaves without telling anyone where he is going. At this same time Zach Randolphs grandma dies and he to is missing. Marbury eventually returns and is not punished by the team. It is revealed that he has "too much dirt" on Isiah to be punished.
- The Knicks play the Celtics and lose by damn near 50 points in of the LARGEST deficits ever. Knick fans at MSG chant "Fire Isiah!" even in Boston they chant it too. A Knick fan watching the game takes off his Knick jersey and throws it onto the court and storms out of the building.
- Now the latest craziness. Marbury's dad is sitting in the arena watching the Knicks lose to the Suns. He begins to have a heart attack during the game and leaves the arena and dies. Its sad and just adds to the craziness that is the Knicks.
