New York Knickerbockers Thread

[Bakes]

It's about time we get this thread started.  Knicks are relevant again for the first time in over ten years  and sitting atop the Eastern Conference after yet another blow out win over Miami.  Still early in the season but there's still only ONE team in New York and they play their basketball at Madison Square Garden!!!

[fari]

you beat meh to the punch... a a look we beat the heat las night...without melo to boot


knicks fans stand up!

[Bakes]

Yes I-yah... NBA needs the Knicks to be relevant, only Miami really been making noise out the East the past couple seasons.  Celts get old and everybody else lacking components.  The Nets on the come up and the Knicks on the comeback... should make things interesting.  Dancehall nice again!

Might try to make a run before the holidays... ent see Babs in like 4-5 years, ah shame.  Plus we need to lime man.

[Bakes]

Knicks down 7 with :56 secs to play against the Bulls.  Doubt they'll pull this one out, no pick and roll defense, and missing too many shots.  J.R. Smith will be the death of me.  I never see a man take more indisciplined shots than he.  steups

Lakers made it close... but only because Anthony sat out most of the second half with an ankle sprain.  I not a betting man, but a Lakers fan pardna ah mine let he mouth write ah dinner check that I'll be cashing at the next reunion in June

Hard luck fuh dat soldier.  Yeah, Mello injury definitely made it interesting.  The fans were having a field day with chants of "Bring back Jackson", "Kobe No means No O" and so on.  Anyway, I think once our starters come back and we continue to lose Mike's days will be short, maybe he can compete w/Rafa to see who stays in their role the longer of the two.  Word on the street is that there is some power struggle in the Buss family re-who should be head coach.

I wouldn't be surprise... Jeanie and Jerry obviously would be advocating Phil.  The fact that Magic savaging Jim doesn't help that perspective either.

NOT IN DE GARDEN.lakers get ah sound cutass.hahahha.......barataria yuh backin ah lorse cause.yuh tink them makin playoffs....ah know it early,but ah love to dream.

[Controversial]

i remember the days when you would sit down and relish the moments when jordan would step onto the hardwood at msg to face ewing and the knicks in the playoffs and you always wondered, will jordan put down a 50 point game that nite at the garden and steal the dreams away from the knicks fans...

i can't wait to see the knicks make a playoff run, i think i will be there with spike on the floor cheering

   I iz a laker bredda, win or lose, no worries, ah doh tink any laker now doh realize dat de team in a downturn right now.  Even when Nash, Pau and Blake return, I personally have no faith in the D'Antoni system, so looks like Del Harris era re-born.  But we all remember what happened thereafter.  Dais de nature of sports, is a ebb and flow.  Playoffs, meh eh know, hard to say right now. 

What I do know though, we still the # 1 basketball franchise name WW, no matter what 

[Bakes]

Still undefeated at The Garden... but by a whisker.  Kyrie Irving give we all we could handle... and Varejao miss a free throw that would have tied the game with one second left.  Team playing decent when Anthony not in de line up, but that is not a recipe for success, to be doing that too much.  We need Stoudemire to get healthy quick to be a decent fall back option.  Felton and Chandler killing that pick and roll... reminiscent of Paul-to-Chandler back in the days of the Charlotte Hornets a couple years back.

[fari]

my god what is going on tonite...just turn on the game and see 94-71 houston in de 4th quarter

[capodetutticapi]

had to b lin and them blasted rockettes to throw sand in we rice.

[Bakes]

No defense... Lin only have a right hand yet man allowing him to drive right time after time.  Even in pick up basketball man would shade yuh to go left.  Same for Harden... left-handed yet man allowing him to drive left. No basket protection or whoever drives the lane dishes for open lay up or jumper.  Forget Anthony not being there, the issue was defense.  To lose to Lin and the Rockets of all teams... steups.

[Bakes]

Knicks v. Nets part trois tonight...
