Yeah.
So many people want to say, oh, I knew it.
I'll be honest.
I had no idea that that was...
a smart thing until I started watching him.
And by the end of the first season, it was so clear that we had a guy who was one of the smartest people in the league, one of the true leaders in the league.
I mean, a guy who is available to fans, like communicates, but
His emotional range is that of like the greatest leaders in sports.
Yeah.
You told me, I mean, say you, you, you saw it before I saw it.
It's so great for something to be like a positive surprise when it comes to the Knicks.
You know, you're right.
When you talked about 1999 and then sort of the years of like the angry Knicks fan, and I know I personified that sometimes.
You know, I wrote about, I mean, for you, I wrote a lot of articles.
about being angry, about being happy when Spree came back and made the chokes, that sign to the owner.
But I'll tell you something, this has turned me around completely.
First of all, I never stopped going.
I've had tickets...
Since 1989, I had one ticket, my friend Alan Havey had the other, and Havey and I, then Havey moved to California 12 years in when I could afford both tickets, and I had the two seats,
since, but I've had seats since 89.
