Can you imagine if this happened in the Twitter/Reddit years?

Relevant part:
”They’re annoying me,” Ewing said, talking calmly but firmly about Knicks fans after the game. ”If they’re going to act the way they act, they might as well stay home. If they’re going to support us, then support us. If you go other places, when the team is playing bad, the fans still support them. Here, they support you one minute, then if something goes wrong, they jump off the bandwagon. I’m just tired of it. It has been like that for 12 years. I’m fed up with it.” Asked if the booing had been worse this year, Ewing said, ”It has been worse, especially early.”

Our fans have always been fuckin delusional. Sad to have treated him that way after all he did.

OP a pro Randle fan and after two games of showing that he is a nut job he wants sub to show sympathy towards him so pulls up an irrelevant clip to what is currently going on in franchise this season.

Idk how many times I’ve brought this quote up in this sub.
Some of the entitled douchebaggery that goes with our fanbase, and often in here, is embarrassing

In 10-20 years, I feel like a lot of us are going to look back at this moment and realize how hard/unfairly we’ve been treating some of our players….just like how we’re seeing how bad the fanbase used to treat greats like Ewing.
These dudes aren’t perfect…especially when we’re talking about Ewing and Randle. They are both good players, play hard, and seem like good dudes. However, they are very imperfect and have flaws. Nothing is wrong with holding them accountable and critiquing them when necessary…but we really have to keep that shit in check and not go overboard. The shit I’ve seen the past few days is way over the top and just toxic.
