John Starks my favorite NBA player of all time. fighter and a scrapper. he didn't give a damn who you were he was gonna talk shit and play the game. love that dude, and yes his jersey needs to be retired in MSG
What, I just saw knicks shawn williams Against the detroit pistons today wearing Number 3! This is so disrespectful..I swear are the knicks on crack ?!
Retire "3" already ! I don't care about his personal life. All I know is that he was the Heart of that Team! I Still have yet to see a player like that on this Team!! it's been 13 years! RetireNumber "3" And "34" You don't have to win a Championship to get respect.
starks in the 2010 leage would be a nightmare for all teams. he was new york, and new york was him. gritty, determined, a fighter, brawler and never relented. god bless him.
you right about that king I grew up a knick fan living in north jersey...now I'M embarrassed to be a fan..the athletes thats coming out of college aint saying shit...the game is down to 5 or 10 players thats making noise...wish the kids today was more athletic ..its ashame!!!!
I miss the good ole days when the knicks were the new bad boys on the nba block...rivalries with the Bulls,Pacers,Heat...all the physical play and elbowing and pushing....goddam basketball sucks now
The Knicks-Myth that was created during the 90's was mostly because of guys like starks & oakley. Thoses two guy deserve to be honored by the knicks for all the effort they put on the court every night, no matter what opponent they faced. Big Pat would never had a chance if there was no oak-tree or straks. Retire the #3 + #34!
he was so damn close to get knicks champions if it weren't fot hakeem olajuwon that guy block that shoot that single shoot man that damn single shoot wich i still don't know how it happens i really couln't sleep that night
shut the fuck up bitch, I know all there is to the Knicks. And I'm not ranking any players yet, but you can't say he was nowhere close. And saying some stupid ass shit like that on a Starks tribute video? Show some respect for a real Knick, you heartless bitch. The man played ball with a passion, enough said.
john starks was the best no.3 in the new york knickerboppers ever had, that man had a heart of a lion he is a true competitive and fearless guy i like is attitude toward the game he was always by my MVP
Bajanfrank, I could not agree more! Starks made the games so much fun. He was an entertainer! Never a dull moment. Feast or famine. Always giving the fans something extra...and he hasn't stopped! Get his biography! The schitt comes with a dvd! Always givin' us something extra. Love dat boi! I still say they shoulda retired his no. 3.
North Tulsa was indeed rough, shaped a lot of athletes that went on to do big things, countless basketball as well as football players (RW McQuarters, NY Giants Superbowl Champ)
what a disgrace the knicks are today. starks defines what a true knick is. despite game 7, hes a warrior, he fought for everything he ever earned. and hes earned the respect of every true knick fan in new york
he may have went to 2-18 (game 7) but the starks i remember is game 6 he carried that fourth quarter and as much as (im a baseball fan redsux get to talk about buckner, hakeems fingers is like the ball between buckners legs to me)it should have of ended 87-86 not 86-84
starks is the only number 3 tht i will always remember. why would they give marbury tht number hes nothing like starks and doesnt have that competitive attitude like starks.
100% the marbury does not have the passion of a john starks. truly a new york knick great, from working at a food store bagging t tearing up the cba and then making to the big show, he remprisented every little guy out there with a a big heart!
the knicks need to retire 3 & 34
