Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I've enjoyed watching kg and pierce, but the last two seasons have been a complete waste of time.  Next year should be our long-delayed return to complete irrelevance ... Let's try to pick up some young assets and tank for a proper superstar successor to Garnett.
Easy to say in hindsight.  But life don't work that way.  I've enjoyed following this team for as long as its home.  But yeah, the end has come.
Hindsight?  Our Team has been perpetually mediocre since shaq got hurt.  Last year we were almost just as terrible in the regular season.  Thanks to some lucky playoff draws (horfordless hawks and sub .500 Philly) we snuck into the ECF and made Miami sweat it out.  It was entertaining, but we were out of our league... And this year we were exposed even further.  Time has come for a long overdo reset... Could be another decade until we sniff contention again, but at least we are no longer a sitting duck franchise milking the last bit of juice out of once great men.  Tanking for wiggins next year gives us a purpose... And we can move forward with hope for the future... Instead of stalling in year 6 of a 3 year window.
Exactly.  You are using nothing but hindsight to mark your point.  Two years ago we were first in the east for much of the year and a serious title contender.  Last year we were one game from the finals.  This year, we'd be much better if not for two key injuries.

So yeah, while not winning any of these years sucks, we can just look at the final result and determine them waste.  Again, hindsight.  Real life don't work that way.
Maybe I'm not making myself clear.  I'm not using hindsight... I've been extremely vocal about how mediocre this team has been.  Last year when we failed to trade ray and pierce for youth, I threw a total fit on this forum.  The fools-gold playoff run masked how wasteful the season had been.   I've consistently said this team isn't a contender since the perk trade.  A lot of people were in denial... But I've been complaining about our lack of size for a couple years now

This is why the Knicks have no shot vs Miami. They have no killer instinct
