Game Thread: Knicks vs. Timberwolves- 12/26/08

Gugliotta_medium

Hope everyone had a good holiday, and I hope the Knicks got their rest. Tonight's game is against Minnesota, one of the worst teams in the NBA. If the Knicks have any shot at overcoming their recent losing streak, it should start tonight with a win. Al Jefferson and Mike Miller are both capable of giving the Knick defense problems, but if the offense is working with reasonable success, New York should be able to grab this one.

Once again, I'm out of MSG territory, so if anybody's watching and would like to recap, that'd be fantastic. Check out the brilliantly-named Canis Hoopus for Minny coverage of tonight's contest.

al harrington is a surprisingly uninteresting person to mike up apparantly

they should mike up jared jeffries, so we can hear him muttering in tongues to himself.

i know i've said it before

but how the fuck did McHale not demand Rondo in that KG trade? that pisses me off to no end.

great minds think alike

although admittedly i was only up to “KEVIN OLL” when you had posted, but i figured i’d finish it off

haha

he signed my t-shirt at 1996 Fairfield Univ. Basketball Camp when I was 13. that’s when he was still at UConn.

if i'm not mistaken

he played alongside ray allen, all-time jewish great doron shaffer, and both donny and donyell marshall. just about the earliest non-knick basketball memories i have surround those teams

classic Lee right there

offensive rebound, miss, offensive rebound kick to Nate, three.

Kevin Ollie

has played for 12 NBA teams, 15 different times (Philly three different times, Orlando twice). 6 of his first 7 seasons he didn’t not spend a full year with one team.

also

he’s 16 years older than kevin love.
he literally could have fathered him. although i’d be surprised if he did.

i dont want to sound over-dramatic

but if the Knicks lose this game, they can forget about the playoffs.

T’Wolves are fucking pathetic.

this is bad.

we’re down 13, nate and al harrington have 3 fouls, and chris duhon is bleeding out of his eye profusely. not much more can go wrong right now

Q a late scratch, Du goes down...

good thing we’re saving that empty roster spot instead of having an extra body.

that, and

guard their inside players
hit free throws
hit threes
hit two pointers

at least we’re rebounding well

by Barnesgasm on Dec 26, 2008 8:39 PM EST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

ok

8 points is do-able. let’s go.

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

by Anthony Masons Haircut on Dec 26, 2008 8:43 PM EST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

okay.

a terrible half. but al went on a mini stint of being the g.o.a.t. there, and we somehow managed to be down less than ten.
let’s come back after the half rejuvenated and win this. but no matter how strong the temptation, how bad the foul trouble, and how injured the chris duhon’s eye, we mustn’t give in to our temptations: malik rose must stay on that damn bench. i’d even rather bring in jerome.

shit

the gimme a minute timer on ron howard didn’t start, and then they took off the graphic. we could be listening to opie talk for hours. that minute might never end.

rashad mccants' elbow in the eye.

there was blood on the floor. they haven’t given an update, but as someone who had a similar, but less bloody, version of the same injury playing pickup a few months ago, i can guarantee that he won’t play again tonight. and that he’ll look really funny for a few weeks.

duhon's playing at the start of the second

i feel stupid about that last comment, to say the least.

by Barnesgasm on Dec 26, 2008 9:02 PM EST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

he's back!

sans a Rip Hamilton mask. Du likes to live dangerously.

al jefferson and al harrington

way too confusing for gus johnson. he’s said the wrong name about three times.

Francis time?

If he’s not vomiting, it’s cool, I already did. All over my Bassy Telfair Lincoln jersey.
