The NBA Schedules a Losing Streak for Lebron & Co.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore?gid=2011030614

Well at least the Heat play well against the teams they ARE NOT going to face in the playoffs. It has to be tough to be Lebron and realize that you actually had a better chance to win a title with last year’s Cavs.  And, their new addition Bibby played 11 minutes and scored zero points. I guess he will be the difference maker for this club. It is going to be real tough for the Heatles to do anything in the playoffs with a bench that makes the Knicks bench look like the dream team.

Spurs Crush Heatles, Life is good

http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/miamiheat/post/_/id/5006/heat-put-up-little-fight-against-spurs

The Knicks may have hit rock bottom last night but at least the Lebron & Co. are looking like a worse and worse experiment every day. It seems like Lebron at this point would have had a better shot at a title if he just resigned with Cleveland.

Cavs beat Knicks and I do my best to hold back the little girl tears

What an awful awful awful game. I went to this game and can attest that it looked even worse in person.

  • For some reason D’Antoni played Jeffries and Anthony “I would not start in the D-league” Carter instead of Douglas and Fields.
  • The isolation happy offense looked slow, boring and waiting to lose
  • I am fine with calling the flying knee a foul against Carmelo
  • If I only judged JJ Hickson by how he plays against the Knicks I would say he is a lock for the hall of fame.

Eddie Curry: Final Piece to NBA Championship for the Heat???

http://allucanheat.com/2011/03/02/signing-eddy-curry-is-a-no-brainer/

For some reason Heat are considering actually signing and playing Eddy Curry. I understand the Heat are undersized and Curry has size (a whole lot of size) but is this a joke. The only way Curry would help the Heat is by producing fewer leftovers after team dinners.  As a Knick, I would like to advise the Heat that this would be a fantastic move for them. He was really an invaluable paperweight on our bench.

Another scheduling loss for Lebron & Co., Why does the league keep scheduling these loses against good teams?

The Heatles dominated the first half against Orlando.  Then they completely forgot that there was a 2nd half.

Carmelo sends Thank you note to Denver fans, Lebron drunk dials Cleveland fans at 3AM asking if they are excited for the playoffs

It seems like this Carmelo made every effort to leave Denver in the right way. There is never going to be a perfect way to leave and a team can’t force a superstar to stay (at least until the new collective bargaining agreement is finalized). George Karl should stop trying to take cheap shots. He acts like some jealous ex-girlfriend which is weird because he claims (possibly correctly) the trade made his team better.

I thought the Knicks were getting Earl Barron?

Earl Barron in his first game back, signed with the Bucks, he played 15 minutes and got 9 boards, 5 of them on offense. Good thing the Knicks don’t need any big men.

If the Knicks could just learn how to run they would be better.

I find this stuff fascinating. It all comes from the popular book Born to Run. I haven’t known anyone who has actually switched their running style but it makes me curious about what it would be like to try. I wonder if this will soon me the new trend in sports. Maybe the Knicks can be ahead of a trend for once.
