Chandler had the flu, Barons back tightened up, Shumpert tore his ACL, the refs went WWE on us and didn’t even call the game fairly and the Knicks were doubled up. This was all before halftime. We try to figure out what happened. Download Episode 125
Knicks vs Heatles Game 1 – Game Thread
Chandler might not play today. Good thing the Heatles don’t have a center either. Predictions? Do we steal one on the road today? Does LeBron fade in the 4th, does Bosh cry, does Shump shut Wade down?

Knicks @ Hawks 4/22/12 – Game Thread
The Knicks clinched a playoff spot this weekend and with the loss to the Cavs we’re stuck in either 7th or 8th. Do we try to get the 8th seed so we can play the Bulls? Is that even a good idea considering they can rebound and we can’t?
The Knicks show the Cavs how much they want to play the Heat in the playoffs
Welcome back Amar’e! Glad to see you watched no tape on how to play defense while you were out.
I felt even more miserable than they look while watching this game.
With this loss the Knicks will now be playing the Heat or the Bulls in the first round instead of having a chance at playing the Pacers. Here’s some notes on the game:
- When Mike Bibby was your best player, and it’s not 2004-2006, you’re going to lose.
- Amar’e is (still) a complete liability on defense
- This is why an offense based on jacking up 3’s isn’t always a good idea
- Why look for Melo, he’s only been averaging 30 points a game for a month, instead….
- whoever gets the ball first just jack up a shot. No one needs to try to get the rebound either, that would use up energy that can be spent on contested 20-30 foot shots.
- I thought the Cavs were the team that was supposed to be tanking.
