Tell me, what's his playoff record...like 17-40? A me first player who cares about nothing except his stats and does not make his teammates better...yea the Knicks are gonna go far with him..... Jeremy Lin just made $25 mil because he got lucky that Carmelo got injured and the Knicks were actually able to play AS A TEAM....aMARE sTOUDAMIRE was the MVP of the 2010-11 season and lo and behold had to take a back seat to Melo...and the Knicks conveniently went south immediately after.... The Nets are going to be better than the Knicks simply because they will be able to play as a TEAM, and not have to cater to one guy...the exact same situation happened in Indiana last year when lesser talent than the Knicks had a better record...PLEASE WIN A ROAD GAME IN THE PLAYOFFS THIS CENTURY BEFORE YOU TALK ABOUT ANYTHING BASKETBALL KNICKS FANS!!

The heat won a chip with lebron, wade, and bosh. Arguably the 3 best at their position.
1.What makes you think the nets would be better than a 1st round exit?
2.Im glad you're bragging about your finals appearances years ago, but its the 2012-2013 season, that doesn't really matter much at this point.
The knicks are fully capable as playing as a team. Now that they will have a full training camp together, I would be disappointed if they played without chemistry.
The knicks won a playoff game this century , infact (it was a looooooooooooong time ago) they won a championship before. The nets, have not. Im not a knicks fan who goes around and brags about his team, because we have a lot of work to do, but you nets fans are getting very annoying

Even analysts fall into the hype, Boston, Indy, Philly and yes NYK have better overall TEAMS. Don't put your faith in joe johnson and Brook,. I'm telling you.

Hey man, I never said the Nets were gonna be contending or anything. I believe they'll make it to the playoffs, which is all you could ask for at this point for a "new" franchise.

I don't believe the team is garbage, though. I'm not comfortable at all with Avery Johnson being coach, but this team is so much better than past years.

Why wouldn't I put faith in a 6 time all star and a potentially 18-20ppg center to go along with a top 5 point guard and solid supporting cast?

Let me restate this slowly for the Knick fan version...NEITHER...THE...NETS...OR...KNICKS...CAN ...BEAT...THE...MIAMI...HEAT...TO
WIN...THE...EASTERN...CONFERENCE...FINALS...IN...T HE...PLAYOFFS.

This is a constructive elaboration in defense to the Brooklyn Nets debate. LouYorkCity ... it is time to wake up. We are taking over, NETS NATION is taking over. This hangs in your beloved city. Manhattan will be Black and White soon! *Your subway ...* *Your streets ...* *Everywhere you look ...* BRANDED WITH OUR NAME

Enjoy the billboards while it lasts lol. Ask any real New Yorker. Knicks is and will always be NY's team.

I live in NY and i can say this with 100% confidence. If the knicks start losing, and the nets are doing well. Guess what? Knicks fans will start shifting to the nets. Ny sports fans are the most fickle people on earth.

Yeah Denver is going to be a fun team to play with forsure

Lemme guess you a Giant and Yankee fan but hate the NYK?? Yep I know. you're **** * will go to the parade if they win though talkin bout "Yeah, NY Baby !!" Lmao. Shut up you lame "I can't win in life so ima ride the next towns team to enjoy some type of victory" *** herb.

Yankees fan since i was born (Mattingly my all time fav), Jets fan since Ken O'Brien and Rangers fan. So if i was a bandwagoner I woulda been a Giants fan but no I hate them... Just like I hate the Mets, Devils and Islanders and lames like you. I'm sure your one of those fair weather lames who roots for whoever is doing good... I'm sure you rooted for the Nets when they made two chip appearances too. Stupid lame. But really didn't I tell you to run along with the other broads... You a bird... And nobody cares about those underachieving bum Knicks. Hahahaa Dont be MAD son... Jealousy and envy is a chick trait.

# 71 TeamBuilder @ 09/01/12 01:13 PM

I'd replace Brooklyn with Sacramento on this list. After their offseason I think the Nets are a bit too "obvious."

LOL coming from the dude with the JETS avi. Stop living in the past the Bulls last ring was in the nineties how is that relevant. You should be concern about D Rose coming off that torn ACL. He a great young player but no one knows if he'll be as good as his MVP year.

Back to the subject at hand, GSW are going to be a fun team to run with online. In 2k Curry play as a top 5 PG. The man is almost unstoppable. With Lee and Bogut down low you have rebs and inside scoring. They also have good wing shooters with RJ and KT. I'm sure this will be popular online

Lol atleast I got something to look back on and to look forward to.... Knicks suck and always will.... Bums. Knick fans always MAD they could never beat JORDAN and PIPPEN.

Back to subject... Now I know you do t know nothing about basketball picking GSW...Lmfao

They haven't signed him. They are just having exploratory talks unless I'm mistaken.

# 75 LionsFanNJ @ 09/01/12 06:40 PM

All that's happened so far is Avery has met with him and I believe BK is going to as well.

YAAAA, thats the team I wanna get DRAFTED TOO!!!!!!

# 80 Angel_G @ 09/03/12 02:13 PM

Bradley Beal / Martell Webster / Jordan Crawford

How is Crawford last on depth chart he scored 14ppg while Martell Webster didn't even play 14 minutes.
How it should be. Jordan Crawford/Bradley Beal / Martell Webster
