OT Charles Oakley kicked out of MSG

[ihatepants]

I can't get over how f*ing tty it is to kick a guy out of a game because he yelled at you about how much you suck and then release a statement that tries to make it sound like the dude has a drug or mental problem. That is one of the most b*tch moves I can think of.

Gee and Oakley never ever posted on the Boneyard. I thought only Boneyarders got kicked out of the Garden.

The Ewing trade, to me, is the one that sent them in a downward spiral.

Instead of just letting the contract expire, they compounded a bad situation and made it worse.

The Spiral started with the injury and retirement of Allan Houston. The franchise was supposed to be his but his career ended.

We'll, kind of. He was never a franchise player anyway. Houston being signed to a massive contract as the franchise player was part of the problem. Him getting hurt just made it much worse.

Dude was soft and overrated, not close to a franchise player.

I agree. He wasn't a "franchise" guy .

He wasn't that bad but they paid him to be the "franchise" And got little out of it. Knick fans will suffer as long as Dolan owns the team. He's too much of a fan to make serious decisions.

The worst decision Phil Jackson made was giving Melodrama a max contract. He wanted to change the culture, but that one trick pony is the culture. I do wonder if Dolan pressured Jackson to sign him since Melodrama was Dolan's masterpiece to begin with.

Phil Jackson deserve a lot of credit for Porzingas and Hermangomez looks like another keeper. It's too early to call Jackson a failure.

They should cut Anthony and swallow the contract. The team would improve overnight. Addition by subtraction.

I pray that KO starts looking for a player that has Oak's fire, physicality and determination for our team. A tough SOB. Plus maybe make a 17 footer like he used to. Who has that kind of attitude for us next year?

 

[Waquoit]

Doesn't Ed Saunders still have a year of eligibility?

It's been a while since we had an enforcer type of player, I was hoping Lubin would be that guy for us. Calhoun had a bunch of those guys, Selvie, Sellers, Depriest, Adrien.

Why would Oakley go there if he knows he's not welcomed? Or not be smart enough to communicate in advance to avoid a situation like this. It's Dolan's team, he can do this if he wants regardless of what instigates it.

Gotta say I'm shocked you'd have a take like this.

 

[UConnDad]

Always loved Oak. He could glare. Rarely did more than that tho. Saw him at the Battle for Atlantis. Getting gray, but still a pretty imposing guy. Those 8 security guys must have been a little nervous!

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Gotta say I'm shocked you'd have a take like this.

We finally found the one James Dolan fan on the planet and the fact that it's this clown is the least surprising news of the day. His "Martin Shkreli is actually a pretty cool guy" post is on deck.

Gotta have a fall guy in your crew man. .everybody knows that.

 

[JSM1970]

Yes, smart move by Oakley. I guess that's why he got arrested.

Gotta say I'm shocked you'd have a take like this.

 

[JSM1970]

Sure genius. Think Oakley is a complete idiot honestly that he would go there knowing he's not welcome and for the sole purpose of being an attention hound.

Knowing he's not welcome? You know how dumb you sound?

 

[Mr. Hand]

Knowing he's not welcome? You know how dumb you sound?

Come on. He makes idiotic posts on a daily basis. Clearly he has no self awareness.

 

[JSM1970]

it's pretty idiotic to say the owner isn't allowed to remove anyone for any reason if they choose to. That would be idiotic.

I'm not sure anyone has suggested that Dolan can't do whatever he wants to do. You're just the only one who's defending what he actually did. That you don't recognize that difference is completely unsurprising, because you seem to have the worst take on just about everything. I'm waiting on your "Roger Goodell is the best commissioner in the history of American sports" take.

He probably rooted for William Wallace to be disemboweled in Braveheart.

 

[JSM1970]

The Pats cheated and lied. If Belichick and Brady told the truth previously Brady would have been suspended againt Seattle. Goodell gave them another SB. Pats fans should embrace Rog.

Well they just lost a loyal fan forever, guessing they lost a lot of them with this.

They had security following him once he got in the arena. Dolan said Oakley was muttering things about him and smelled of alcohol, that's everyone in the arena. What a disgusting little weasel Dolan is. Biggest laughingstock in sports, the fans need to boycott.
