Isiah sure set himself up for ridicule this time. I happen to be one of the few fans left that actually believes this team has the potential to win, but my beliefs like Isiah's projections mean nothing if they don't translate into wins; both he and I just end up looking like idiots. I truly believe the achilles heal of this experiment is Curry, and I can't believe no one in Mgmt put the onus on him to get his body in NBA shape this past off season.
It is what it is and they are who their record says they are, but as for "the light at the end of the tunnel" comment, he would have been better served relating that to the state of the eastern conference. They are 10 games behind Toronto, 6 behind Jersey, and 4 behind Philly with a ton of games left to play. Realistically, if we could get some kind of continuity and string a couple of victories together, we can still make the playoffs, but please leave the championship talk at the door.
Until we're mathematically eliminated, I'm still a believer. As most "true" Knick fans are. One thing about Isiah, he took a chance few others would have taken, and that's rebuilding the Knicks with young/athletic players, for this very reason.... It takes time to win after you rebuild, and you will become the laughing stock of the league if you are unsuccessful. But someone has to get on Eddy, he is the key, make him work out (much harder), make him work on his defense and rebounding (ad nauseam), please!!!!!!!! If relaying this obvious fact to him fails, this experiment will crash and burn, definitely.......
