@knickelplated @OldManAndThree @drinkspindrift I am not trying to start things with anyone on Twitter, but it's important to realize that, yes, it most certainly does matter. The pain that people like him and the many other examples of horrid Knicks tenures caused since post- 90s era is what makes this Finals run so emotional

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@_J_S_M_860 @OldManAndThree @drinkspindrift Completely agree with the “genuine fans” part. Even with Starbury, I’m glad he’s still supporting, but it just seems like people are willingly forgetting just how much damage he did when he was a player here. The pain that era brought fans is what makes this Finals run so special

@Gamz3000 @OldManAndThree @drinkspindrift This isn’t me refusing to move on. It’s about imploring fans to not re-write and forget about history. We can celebrate this team to the fullest WITHOUT erasing points of pain from the past (Marbury, for example) that make this moment as special as it truly is

@NBA_NewYork LOVE this! Mikal needs to play with a fire under him. Hopefully this adversity unleashes the beast!!!!

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@SbondyNBA Preach! Regardless of his roots as a native New Yorker, he was a cancerous Knick -- from canning Larry Brown to literally being banned from MSG his final season with the team, he should NOT be sitting next to these all-time team legends, let alone be celebrated by fans

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@JimmyRandazzo @Giants Absolutely not! Gruden is all hype, no substance as a coach

[Josh Paredes @Josh810]

🚨ATTENTION! 🚨I'll be dropping the exclusive trailer for "The Boy From St. Croix" right here tomorrow at 10 a.m. ET. Directed by Tim Duncan's brother, Scott, it's an intimate documentary telling the story of the legend himself.

@TheVolumeSports It’s literally Tuesday…

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@SbondyNBA @IanBegley As fas as single season feats, Melo’s 2012-13 run with the Knicks was his best as a pro. However, from a year-after-year perspective, his days in Denver were easily his best. Agreed!

@HOUmanitarian @TheCinesthetic I know who you're talking about, but that gif is literally James Franco...

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@Ticket1430 @__JonathanSmith I'm FAR from a Jones fan, but saying him having the same season that Minshew had in his lone year with the Colts would be viewed as "the best year of his career" auto suggests you have not paid attention to any of his past seasons in the NFL. DJ has 2 better seasons already

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@JDVance Whether you’re telling him to “do your job” or not, it’s literally an authoritarian tactic to threaten imprisonment like this @JDVance. Guess they didn’t teach you common sense at Yale…

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@rowindatas25 @7PMinBrooklyn @NBA_NewYork @FDSportsbook Being a native New Yorker as well as one of the last great NYC-born guard prospects does not excuse his horrendous tenure with the Knicks. The fact that he's sitting alongside Ewing, Starks, and even Melo and being celebrated is disrespectful to NYK legends. At least to me

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@KnicksMuse You can clearly see Mikal make contact with the ball right before he loses control…

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@xenostroy A good lightsaber dual does NOT mean the entire product is forgiven for their overwhelming mistakes and laziness. The story is painfully forgettable. Star Wars and, frankly, Disney as a whole is learning the hard way that sometimes less is more. The Acolyte was egregiously rushed

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@Josh810 Answer: Bol Bol

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@JDVance Stop trying to be likable and relatable! Your constant failure to do so is truly insufferable

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@GaryPearman6 ... obviously doesn't guarantee a triple-double. Big men are always in line for a double-double with their scoring a rebounding opportunities. Quality passing is what has separated these outings from regular triple-doubles, at least in my opinion

[Mark Nilon @MarkNilon]

@GaryPearman6 As noted in the piece, I-Hart certainly deserves credit for Jay Will's passing improvement. However, considering Hart credits Jokic for his development, the chain indirectly links back to Joker. As for your point on minutes, the easy answer is yes. However, playing 30+ minutes...
