Around SBN: Steve McNair Dead - Former NFL QB Shot and Killed


Game Thread: Knicks vs. Jazz- 11/9/08

07look_medium

The 3-2 Knicks head home this afternoon for Kids Day at the Garden. What's in store for the rugrats? Well, while Mike D'Antoni and his fun-loving Knicks look to frolic and gleefully launch threes, Jerry Sloan's mean, old Jazz would be happiest if the final score was 40-32. Jazz. Boo.

Utah should be without Deron Williams, but its their frontcourt that poses a major problem. Carlos Boozer is an All-Star talent with potent post moves and a Duke education, so, like, he's probably roofied the refs studied a lot of tape to prepare for this one. Meanwhile, Mehmet Okur is a bigtime inside-outside threat who, at 15'2'', is taller than David Lee and Zach Randolph combined. Look out for those matchups, and don't underestimate Ronnie Price's contributions in the backcourt.

Can the Knicks run against the stalwart Jazz defense, or will grump old Sloan give the kids something to yawn about? Tipoff's at 3. Get them W's.

Also, check out the venerable SLC Dunk for the best Utah coverage of today's game.

we're absolutely stroking it.

zach randolph in transition made me giggle.

Wilson Chandler

continues to amaze me. I still don’t really believe that he can shoot.

by Seth on Nov 9, 2008 3:24 PM EST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

he can.

at the least, he’s a better shooter than q.

umm

that’s three straight possessions where duhon has matched up against kirilenko. that seems questionable.

by Barnesgasm on Nov 9, 2008 3:30 PM EST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

the small lineup is cute

but making duhon guard kirilenko so that he has to be doubled every time he touches the ball doesn’t make things easier.

how is Utah not up by 25?

Ewing with the step...YES! and the foul!

good point.

also, given david lee’s complete inability to hang with carlos boozer, utah should be up by 50.

by Seth on Nov 9, 2008 4:02 PM EST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

well down 5 is do-able

and Craw looks hot (in reference to his shooting) so they’ve got a shot.

Ewing with the step...YES! and the foul!

not a bad half

considering how bad it was

by Seth on Nov 9, 2008 4:09 PM EST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

which means more great finds like that crawford-duhon look.

by Seth on Nov 9, 2008 4:36 PM EST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs
