Why everyone laughs at Knicks? (alien.top)

Hi all! I am a fresh NBA addicted and, surprisingly, I understand that the vast majority of fans laugh at Knicks.

Again, as a newbie into the NBA, I was assuming that a team based in NY, with a rich owner and lacking a NBA trophy since years would have been an immediate choice as a team to support.

Could someone explain me why? I imagine that bad management will be the main cause, but I am curious to understand more.

Please give me a reason to support and a reason no to support them.

I really hope you convince me to go for them 😃

James Dolan makes it easy to hate anything he's a part of really, but otherwise the Knicks are one of the largest markets in the league, with only LA to really compare. That territory comes with the natural ribbing you're going to get if you're not successful for a very long time. Having all the market advantages yet still doing poorly (relatively speaking) = you're ass gonna be made fun of.
