New York Knicks at Los Angeles Lakers, Nov 24, 2009 10:30 PM EST
It's the Knicks and the defending champion Lakers tonight in Los Angeles. New York gave some other recent champs a run for their money the other day. Can they do the same tonight, and maybe finish the job this time?
This here's your game thread for comments throughout the game. I think I'll end up taping this game and watching it later, but I'll be stopping by if I manage to catch any of the live broadcast. Lay on the comments and don't forget to check out Silver Screen and Roll for all things purple and gold. Tipoff's at 10:30.

can we go back to having the pictures be of obscure 90's players?
so much better than nature, plus i feel like everyone here is in that age group where the NBA in the 90’s was the greatest thing in their life so far.

in due time
at the moment, i’m making more of an effort to obey the law.

and start curry
i went to the game in jersey, he only scored 3 points but he is a BEAST on the inside. he’s playing with so much more fire than a couple years ago. And he got Lopez into foul trouble which was the difference in the game.

i think theyre still concerned about his ability to play for more than 15-20 minutes. it stands out a lot more if you start the game and are taken out early on vs. being brought off the bench close to the end of the first quarter then playing into the beginning of the second quarter (and then doing the same in the 3rd and 4th).

yea but id rather have all of his time come against the opponents starting center, because he draws so many fouls.
by jayvb on Nov 24, 2009 9:30 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
fair point. maybe they purposefully dont want that? easier for him to look good against second units?
by ibnyc on Nov 24, 2009 9:39 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
thats possible
I guess its a matter of wanting to win the game vs curry’s trade value going up.
Honestly, if Curry is going to be playing with passion, and he’s in shape, is there a better way to spend the $10M if we dump his salary? I cant believe I’m saying this but if he is his 2006 self + passion + in shape, he’s one of the few solid centers in the east. lets keep him.

he has a heart that is both literally and figuratively weak. no defense, no rebounding. no way he’s worth 11 mill ever.
by ibnyc on Nov 24, 2009 9:45 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
are there any centers/ big PFs that are free agents? (besides bosh who will get max from someone else) it’s such a huge difference having a big guy in the paint instead of david lee playing center. Id pay him 11M if the other option is not having a center.
by jayvb on Nov 24, 2009 9:48 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
He's been rebounding
since he’s come back. It’s shocking. I see fire. Also shocking.

he looks angry when hes trying to get post position. its refreshing to see someone on the team angry as opposed to sad and bored.

same starting lineup
duhon hughes chandler gallo lee
according to some guy on twitter
by jayvb on Nov 24, 2009 10:09 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
duhon should not be starting
on ANY team that plays basketball. start douglas at PG and nate at SG. this team needs some energy.
id start douglas nate gallo lee curry. so sick of duhon harringotn and hughes stealing minutes and shots from the guys that will still be knicks in 5 months.

it sucks that eddy curry seems like such a nice guy
makes it hard to hate on him

who has the worst tattoo situation on the knicks?
i vote for wil.
by ibnyc on Nov 24, 2009 10:43 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
not a knick or a tattoo,
but what’s up with Artest’s hair? Is there a runic code in there?
by breathing shark on Nov 24, 2009 11:29 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I was going to say,
“hey, where is everybody? The Knicks are playing relatively well.”
But then Duhon dribbled the ball off his foot. Typical.
by breathing shark on Nov 24, 2009 11:18 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
lets get curry in the game
i hate gasol so much. he needs a good rondo-shove.

whens the last time the knicks actually hit a jumper?
by konopka21 on Nov 24, 2009 11:31 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Spike and Reggie are friends now.
How adorable.

Chandler should focus on Defense this game
and stop shooting
by Frederic Weis on Nov 24, 2009 11:55 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Derek Fisher has more points than Gallo, Hughes or Duhon
Some great defense from our starting point guard.
by Nolan B on Nov 24, 2009 11:57 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Nate practices that shot.
Of course he does. What a clown.
by breathing shark on Nov 25, 2009 12:18 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
how is that not a flagrant?
that was one of the more flagrant and intentional fouls ive ever seen.
by jayvb on Nov 25, 2009 12:25 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
i dont understand
how are danilo and curry not on the floor right now? i cant understand this. jeffries and harrington in garbage time? ARRGRHRGRHRG
by jayvb on Nov 25, 2009 12:29 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
What the heck!
I don’t understand what the problem is with Jordan Hill. He looks like he’s doing fine to me. He’s playing good defense, he’s active on the glass, and he’s running the floor well, not mention getting buckets. Why isn’t he playing more!!!
I’ll bet D’Antoni’s been ordered to showcase Jeffries. This is ridiculous!
by StarksMiddleFinger on Nov 25, 2009 12:36 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
I don’t get it either. He doesn’t look like an instant NBA star but he looks good enough to be getting serious time, I’m liking his game and it’s obvious why he was a lotto pick

Apparently Eddy has a sore right knee
won’t be returning
by Frederic Weis on Nov 25, 2009 12:37 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
yea
im all for setting those guys loose at the end of year, or using them in trades to dump jeffries. they have losing attitudes and i used to love nate, but he’s out of control.
we’ve got our core of douglas / hill / danilo / chandler / curry (not really an option), lets sit everybody else and atleast have a fun young team a start would like to join.
by jayvb on Nov 25, 2009 12:56 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
i wasnt here for the post cuz i knew what it would be
however id like to state that im a big supporter of hill and after seeing him throw down a dunk and to see how high he was i must say the future looks brighter than before
by IB on Nov 25, 2009 12:53 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
honestly the youngs
are much better than the olds if you pay attention to their games, hopefully walsh realizes that and tries to get compensation for some of them before the years over
