Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Game Thread: Knicks at Bulls- 12/9/08

Wenningtonchi_medium

Good evening, y'all. The Knicks are in Chicago tonight, which is important for all kinds of reasons. Chris Duhon will be making his return to the Chi  and matching up against Derrick Rose, the electric rookie point guard who's making the Bulls forget him (knife wounds be damned). Mike D'Antoni will be coaching against an organization that wanted his services this summer, but settled for Vinny Del Negro (which is like wanting a Lamborghini and settling for a Fiat that can't grow a mustache instead).

For the team as a whole, this kicks off a tough five-game road trip that has the potential to keep the Knicks afloat or put them well below .500, depending on their effort. With trips to Phoenix and L.A. looming, games like tonight's cannot be taken lightly.

Check out Blog-A-Bull for some insight on the Chicago situation, and get those comments rolling in. Tipoff's at 8:30.

bad priorities

people would rather “study for finals” than “take an hourlong train, pick up stubhub tickets, then a bus to the united center, and also, there is something like a blizzard outside”. so i’m watching online.

If Jared Jeffries

keeps making “Driving dunks (Chris Duhon assists)” (Courtesy ESPN Gamecast), then we should do just that.

jared jeffries with the corner two

somewhere in italy a man’s milk-producing goat just had an exploded aorta

Is it an unwritten rule in the NBA

that if Jared Jeffries hits a corner two on you, you HAVE to take a time out?

I was just going

to comment about how Du is a board away from a triple-double, but I didn’t want to jinx it.
