Define “Knowledgable”

So apparently Mike D’Antoni cursing out fans the other night has become big news.

Why?

Good for D’Antoni. New York fans are passionate and  knowledgable,right? But when a small group chants for Stephon Marbury up 19 points in the second half against the Heat it had plenty of people cursing, including the new coach. I was at the game and my first reaction was to look at the scoreboard and realize that we were playing great, then thought “Why the @*&# are they chanting for Marbury?”

This is NOT about the coach versus the fans. This is about the coach scratching his head when thinking about a small percentage of his fanbase. The same dopes who chanted for Marbury probably booed Gallinari on draft night and chanted “USA! USA!”despite never once seeing him play.

That’s ignorance, not knowledge.

What do these fans know about winning in this league?

So if you read the reports that D’Antoni is anti-fans, please ignore them. If you’re as knowledgable as you think you are, you’ll say good for the coach for calling them out. They deserve it.

    I dont think everyone gets the fact that the garden was chanting steph because marty collins was playing like crap and isnt the “future”.We all want the best people on the floor like D’antoni said he would do. You might be slightly retarded wanting collins over steph.

    Marbury deserves to pay over Collins end of subject. He is better than him.

    Sometimes, guys, things aren’t that simple…

    It is simple though. Look. I don;t think Marbury deserves to start and I think Robinson should play more than him. But Mardy Collins is not that good of a point gaurd. Marbury should play more than him. What is the point of playing him a lot during preseason and then not playing him in the regular season.
