a Knick of hope

I am not a huge basketball fan, due to the fact that the Knicks haven't been good for most of my life.  Yes the knicks were in the Finals in the late 90's but that was a strike shortened season.  The Knicks have had eight coaches since the year 2000 and none of them have been able to get the job done.  Many times this team has been a disaster to watch.  They finally hired a coach and General Manager who broke the team down.  The current Knicks team is close to .500 and is giving us hope early in the season.
