The New York Knicks Trash Fire Thread!

[Simon]

New York is a dumpster fire but that doesn't mean that Oakley is anything other than what he's always been, on/off the court...a thug.

Where are the reports of him being a thug?

So in 2010 Oakley files a lawsuit against a Vegas casino alleging he was beaten by 5 security guards. I have no idea how the suit turned out.

But that's his reason for reacting the way he did to the guards in MSG. Because of what happened to him in Vegas.

My opinion, he got beaten in Vegas exactly because he probably reacted the way he did in MSG.

Am I the only one that sympathizes with Dolan banning Oakley?

I mean.. I know this might sound odd but.. If I were Oakley and I acted like that, they'd have my ass underneath the jail right now. Hell, I might have been tazed and shot... Oakley doesn't have the right to harass or menace Dolan. It doesn't matter who he is. And if Oakley was banned, then he shouldn't have been there to begin with.

And why would he buy tickets right behind Dolan?

I've read his comments about Dolan before, and they're strange, unnerving, and menacing. He's intimated he wanted to do harm to Dolan numerous times... So why show up at the Garden like a hero when the fucking owner doesn't feel comfortable with you near him?

And with all of this being said, he put his hands on security. How is that not being discussed? No one did anything to him; and he assaulted 3 grown men who were doing their jobs and being respectful about it as well. I admit I don't know what was being said, but those guys didn't look like they were being hostile, and it wasn't Oakley's place to attack guys just doing their jobs... He's a grown man, not a child - he should know better. Take Dolan to court! But to attack innocent security guards? That's disgusting...

I understand how people are saying this shouldn't be the situation that Oakley found himself in, but with that said, I honestly think Oakley brought this on himself... I'm sorry, but based on what I know thus far, I just can't get behind this.

I get where you are coming from as far as Oakley putting his hands on the security goes, but other than being hyper critical of the franchise I do not recollect Oakley doing anything threatening or menacing to the Dolans, Sure he may have said something but it is NY where F U is their way of saying Have a Nice Day .

So, Dolan is honoring some former Knicks today at the game.

He had beef with Sprewell and Sprewell is sitting next to Dolan, awkward....

Man, beating the Spurs is just cruelest move. I feel bad for their fans, hope at this point is just delicious poison for them.
