Why are Knicks Fans So Cocky?

[atljonesbro]

They are barely squeaking by an old, injured, bad Celtics team. They've looked bad in their wins yet they think they are favorites to beat the Heat :lol :roll: :roll:

Bravado to mask fragility.

[imnew09]

because as a fan you need faith on your team. I thought Lakers would beat the Spurs in the first round :confusedshrug:

Oh well, OP, your thread proved you're cockier...

[daj0264]

second worst fans in any sport ever

[SevereUpInHere]

I've braved some truly abysmal Knicks teams in my 20 odd years as a Knicks fan, so f*ck you, I'm enjoying this.

True, we've looked bad at points in the games, but when we turn our D on we've been looking great.

So again, f*ck you, I'm going to enjoy the ride this year for as long as it lasts.

[Dr. Ice]

it's like that for any new york team. giants, jets, knicks, yankees, you name it.

It's because the media talks so much about them that they expect to be better than they really are.

Op made this thread because we flamed him for these laughable views, get some popcorn, sit back and enjoy the comedy that is Atljonesbro



Not sure why the Knicks fans are rooting for Atlanta, they are a better team than the Knicks. I mean hell who knows if they'll even get past the Celtics at this point. Chuckmelo is back in full force.


The Knicks haven't even looked good vs the Celtics... They are injured, hobbled, old. They aren't a good team unless Melo is on fire. If he isn't on fire they are a fringe playoff team quality.

[Bobcats2013]

Let them enjoy it. They've sucked for so long, they deserve to celebrate good wins.

[HoopsFanNumero1]

Some of them are a bit too cocky, but they've had a completely shit team for over a decade so the long-term fans have the right to be.

[Bandito]

Whose team are you a fan of OP, because you sound very cocky to me.

[MetsPackers]

Wow. This is just ridiculous. Knicks fans are humbly celbrating a good series and haters are just coming out of the wood work. Did JR and the rest of the squad give the pipe to all your mothers or something? I have seen very little gloating or outrageous predictions at all and yet the whole fanbase is getting bashed.

And squeak by? The Knicks are up 3-1, were up 3-0 at one point, and have been pretty in control for most of the games. Seems like you definitely have an agenda. Aren't you the guy who thinks the hawks are going all the way? :roll: :roll: You clown. I hope the Hawks beat Indy so the Knicks can stomp them in the second round

[WayOfWade]

Because they're New Yorkers

[Kingwillball]

:lol these threads keep popping up yet i havent seen anything outrageous said by Knicks fans.

Watch another anti-Knicks thread pop up tmrw...

My thoughts exactly. Even though he doesn't type in all caps, his posts have that kind of feeling to them.

Some are, sure... some others acted like clowns, which propped 'haters' and other fandom to call them out for it.

[Dengness9]

Knicks fans have the right to be pumped, definitely not cocky.

Its exciting times for a team that hasn't done anything for a long long while.

But history always gives you a look to how things work in the NBA.

The Knicks haven't been out of the first round yet with Carmelo(wont be able to say that in a day or two), and even last year snapped the streak for most playoff loses in a row at 13 i believe.

They can't and won't beat the Heat. Im not saying that to Knicks fans because they won't believe it and they shouldn't. Root on your guys and best case scenario is you guys put a scare into Miami and build on it for next year.

I feel like every time I watch the Knicks this year it reminds me of the Bulls the last few seasons. They are turning a serious corner on getting to that contender level but they just aren't quite there.

Lord knows i would love to see them beat Miami, but they have to get there first anyway. We'll all find out soon enough

[Proctor]

Knicks fans aren't so bad.. except posters like iDunk and Trentknicks, who ride on their n.utsack to the degree that it doesn't even appear they're actually fans. :applause:

The team I support in the AFL has not been to the finals since I was 6, so I have always said that the day that they do is the day that I am allowed to say whatever I like about the sport as I somewhat deserved it. :oldlol:

So I understand completely how Knicks fans are feeling, enjoy it, just don't go to overboard, because it is annoying sometimes. There has been a lot of disrespect coming from some Knicks fans towards other teams.

[Knicksfever2010]

how did we barely squeek past the celtics? We blew them out in game 3 and most of the 2nd half of all the games, we've been running them out of the gym.

It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile; winning's winning.

This is true, however....

NYK is a 2seed. They're easily the least impressive of the top seeded teams. Miami and San Antonio blew out their opponent. Houston was no match for OKC until Westbrook got hurt.

Knicks are by far the weakest of the top 2 seeds in both conferences.

[Glide2keva]

Knicks fans have been cocky for a long time. It didn't just start with this suddently good team they have.

Remember how this board from 2008 to just before July 2010? They just KNEW lebron was coming to NYK. They had avatars with PS'ed lebron in NYK unis and everything. They'd shout anyone down that told them it wasn't happening. They'd rhow it in everyone's faces and would cheer for him when he played at MSG, FOR TWO YEARS!

It's not just here. Knicks fans act like their team is the best in the world and they haven't won a title in 40 years! It's mind boggling how entitled they act.

[retaxis]

I don't like the title much its demeaning and stereotyping a whole group of people who are all very different living different lives.

However NYK haven't proven a damn thing this playoff. Celtics aren't even close to what they were last year. PP and KG and regressed (not even allstars or close) and they don't have their all star Rondo or Ray Allen anymore. We all know that NYK were swept by Celtics 2 yrs ago when Celtics had the big 4 together and Billups/Melo/Stoudemire couldn't do a thing.

But they will have a chance to prove themselves next round:cheers:

[NumberSix]

Knicks fans are just delusional. I've seriously heard Knicks fans say that the Knicks is one of the marquee franchises of the NBA.

[imdaman99]

love the NY jealousy. not our fault your teams cant even sell out playoff games. half your arena will be knicks fans whether its atlanta or miami :applause: knicks should finish off boston tomorrow, and then we get to see them roll on.

i get it though, NYC is the best city in the world. you should be jealous.

[DaSeba5]

Yah NYers are pretty arrogant. I live in South Florida and they are everywhere. They talk a lot of shit about their team and their city. If NY is such a great place to live, why don't you move back? It doesn't really bother me, but all NYers have a sense of pride that makes them arrogant.

Toronto Maple Leafs haven't won a Stanley Cup in an even longer amount of time than the Knicks. The franchise must be irrelevant and their fans should not be cocky at all. AMIRITE?

I'm assuming this directed to me, unless it's just a very convenient example.

The franchise isn't 'irrelevant' in terms of their business, their the most valuable franchise. No fan should care about that too much, since that should be part of wealthy business men.

However, just this past year (while hate ESPN myself, their right) the Leafs got ranked the worst franchise in all of North American sports:

http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/toronto-maple-leafs-ranked-worst-espn-article/

[QUOTE]The Toronto Maple Leafs are the worst team in North American sports, according to a recent article from ESPN.com

Since 2003, ESPN has released their

[Sarcastic]

First of all that ESPN ranking was a complete joke, just like the network is.


Secondly, where have you seen Knicks fans bragging about the titles we won? I haven't seen a post about the 1973 Knicks other than the one made about the lost footage that was shown on MSG. For the most part, Knicks fans are quite objective. Who has predicted we are winning a title? We're confident that as a 2 seed we will beat a 7 seeded team. That's cocky? To me that is just practical. And if we end up playing the 6 seeded Hawks in the second round, we shouldn't be confident in beating them either? Upsets are usually quite rare in the NBA. In MLB, NFL, and NHL the 1 and 2 seeds drop in the first and second round all the time. In the NBA it really doesn't happen too often, and when it does it makes huge news.

[Legends66NBA7]

You're actually right, there hasn't been talk about Knick fans concerning their old Knick titles. I just don't like threads like this:

To me, that's just stupid. And there are Knick fans saying they were 'humble over getting these wins. :wtf:. I don't know if I can find the post, but there has been talk about beating Miami and possibly winning a title, it could have just been trolling.

Anyways, you should be confident (not arrogant, obnoxious, over the top, etc...), I would like to see a Knicks vs Heat ECF.

There are some objective Knicks posters, but also more annoying ones. I don't know why some of them bring up the 'best city talks' like it means anything.

The Leafs have 13 championships in franchise history and have had some of the best teams to never win it all. They are comparable franchises (Knicks and Leafs) when it comes to success-championship ratio in the last 40 years (high winning percentage, little playoff success), but at least they have a great history that their franchise is based on.

And Leafs fans are not cocky. They are some of the most pessimistic fans in all of pro sports. They are absolutely brutal. If anything it's a perception of Toronto more generally, other Canadians don't like Toronto and it goes back to the 19th century. Our nickname is Hog-Town for godssake :oldlol:

I could understand the Knicks failure as a franchise if they were in Kansas City or Tallahassee or some other small market, but they're in NYC. The biggest market in America. That's such a huge advantage to have yet they're still a failure of a franchise. This is a team that has a bigger bankroll than the Lakers. They have more money than any other team, yet they're a middle of the pack Indiana/Milwaukee level franchise. It's completely inexcusable.

And Leafs fans are not cocky. They are some of the most pessimistic fans in all of pro sports. They are absolutely brutal. If anything it's a perception of Toronto more generally, other Canadians don't like Toronto and it goes back to the 19th century. Our nickname is Hog-Town for godssake :oldlol:

Pretty much.

I've honestly never met a Leaf fan that was positive about the future of this franchise. They do go over the top vs team like Ottawa and Montreal.

Opening Pandora's Box, both the Knicks and Nets have two titles each, when the leagues were split.

This is true, too.

I accept what the Knicks are: a middle of the pack (or lower honestly) franchise that has been laughably terrible up until the last few years for a very long time, but what do you want me to do when we win? Say "Well we won, but we're a shit franchise that only has two titles in over 40 years. Haha Knicks suck." I'm a fan. Seriously answer that question, how should I act?

No, not at all. Be happy when you win.

The only problem with Knicks fans is how they troll when people are doing nothing more than having objective conversations. If a Heat fan and a Clipper fans are talking and they say they don't think the Knicks are a real contender or that Melo is an elite player, you'll inevitably having Knicks fans trolling with "why you mad" and "you butt hurt" comments. That's fine if Lakers fans do that. People are butt hurt about the Lakers success. Nobody is mad or butt hurt about the Knicks. You don't see Pacers fans constantly accusing people of being butt hurt or mad.
