Dwight is an idiot for wanting to leave. Magic are a slashing SG and one more big away from being legit. They have lights out shooters and tons of depth

Pick one. Knicks fall apart, as always, in the 4th.
 
So I've been waiting a while to say this. How come Mavs-Gaf/Best-Gaf didn't make a bigger deal out of dirk coming into this season COMPLETELY out of game shape and making statements like after he won he was unmotivated for the first time and didn't touch a ball for 2 months.


That's a pretty beta thing to do. Your the teams alpha dog, come into to training camp more honed in and in better shape so the rest of the team takes after you and you begin your title defense


I could never imagine Bird or Kobe or Jordan doing shit like that
 
Keep shooting Kemba. WHY NOT

Mavs got their ring, didn't care about the asterisk, a lot of key personnel leaving...

Don't care won a championship.

He'll be ready when it actually matters.
 
Who would've thought that years later the entire knicks roster would still be garbage

And it's true the Knicks were up by like 2 to start the 4th. I guess that counts as failing to close out games or something.
 
Stat was nonexistent today. No flow on offense, no defense of the the outside shot. Magic had open looks all day and to their credit, nailed pretty much every shot. Pringles' current offensive scheme is to have Melo bring the ball up and chuck. This team is ass.

Knicks are terrible. The climb to .500 begins anew.
 
Is this the last year of D'antoni's contract? I was pretty sure he'd be gone after this year, but now I'm starting to think he may not last that long.

They better hope the Giants win on Sunday. They're not getting that much (well deserved) ire from the public/press at the moment. They're awful.

Jerry's Deli Matza Ball Soup


I went to Carnival last week when family was in town. Best Schwarma around. And Falafels. And hummus. And babaganoush. So fucking good.

Everything there is correct, except Jerry's. That place is terrible, especially that soup.


lol Amar'e. This guy is regressing fast.
 
Earl Clark out rebounded him in 6 minutes of play.

The fact that Amare and Melo haven't developing any sort of complementary playstyle with one another is mind boggling. If the players don't realize it themselves, then one would hope that the coach would and do all he could to maximize his stars.

D'antoni is either in way over his head or an idiot. But probably both.

The press should be the least of their worries. D'antoni, barring a miracle, is a lame duck coach most likely on his way out this year and the team is back in cap hell with no choice but to make what they have with a Melo/Chandler/Stat core work.
 
lol Amar'e. This guy is regressing fast.

He had guys doing the dirty work for so long he forgot how to do anything but chuck, and he doesn't seem to want to learn. Amare has always been half of a great player, absolutely no fucks given unless he has teh ball or has a chance to get the ball, rebounding? There's no glamour in that, Defense? That's for role players.

They have holes in their rosters and in their star players. Its funny how they spent so much and dealed so hard for a team that is marginally better than their garbage days.
