I've always felt that I shouldn't scream on the air...I just feel there's a way of rising enthusiastically if there's an exciting play, but you don't have to scream. There are people who do shout, and I think that's unnecessary. You have to be under control at all times, no matter what's taking place. Enthusiasm and excitement can be expressed without going berserk.

Theres a fine line between physical and thug ball, and the Knicks have crossed the line on occasion.

It's impossible to work under conditions where they confused negativity with objectivity. You can't fool the fans.

There are people in New York who feel I should have more of a hometown approach. I feel we have to be a mirror and reflect whats happening on the court.

I was a Knicks fan of the Kenny Sears-Carl Braun-Jim Baechtold vintage. I was even their ball boy when I was a teenager.

Game calls cant be just, Oh, by the way, as part of a larger discussion.

Phil Jackson would fight his own players in practice.
