Game Thread: Knicks at Magic- 12/2/09

New York Knicks at Orlando Magic, Dec 2, 2009 7:00 PM EST


800px-lake_eola_from_east_central_blvd

Buenas noches, puppies. The Knicks are in Orlando tonight to face the league-leading Magic for the second time in the past week. In the previous meeting, D'Antoni's li'l rascals hung around for about a half, but eventually succumbed to Orlando's three-point shooting. It'd be fantastically well if the Knicks could continue this wave of giant-killing and upset the Magic, but I'm not counting on it. Nevertheless, I forgot to mention that I sat in a different chair for last night's game, and will do the same tonight. If my new seating choice begets a second victory over a contender, it's gonna be a monumental turn of events.

Stop by at 7:00 for comments (I'd love if we could get as many as last night, if not more), and check out 3QC for some truly superior blogsmanship.

Meanwhile, a brief and pretty poor joke of mine opened the floodgates of creativity in the recap comments section. Per the request of users, I'm gonna open up the pre-game thread to voting and discussion for last night's ideas of what Darko Milicic's DNP-BHWCSIYMHPGT last night.

The actual answer? After the jump.

o or d?

on O i’d like to see him catch the ball 18 feet out and take him off the dribble.

good look by hughes

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 7:16 PM EST up reply actions

crazy stat

last night was the first time a team with a less than .200 record ever beat a .800 team by more than 20

by jayvb on Dec 2, 2009 7:22 PM EST reply actions  

its really a shame that from the first 3pter...

till that last fade…that they don’t pass to Gallo.

"It ain't over till its over"---

danilo gallinari's face must feel very leathery

because vince carter seemed fully convinced he got all ball there

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:24 PM EST reply actions  

lewis

what do you guys think of Lewis as a comp for Gallinari down the line?

by riise on Dec 2, 2009 7:26 PM EST reply actions  

god damn

just as gallo starts to come off a pick, open at the three pt line. al takes it to the basket, head down.story of the knicks.

by riise on Dec 2, 2009 7:30 PM EST reply actions  

lol

finally he passes and we get a moving screen.

btw, u notice lee refused to give it to al in the backcourt? i think they’re realizing he’s a black hole.

by riise on Dec 2, 2009 7:32 PM EST up reply actions  

yeah

he’d probably shoot from there

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:33 PM EST up reply actions  

ughghghghg jeffries

that wouldve been an automatic 3 points

by jayvb on Dec 2, 2009 7:32 PM EST reply actions  

...Gallo wide open for 3..

and Jeffires with the moving screen.

These fools like Jeffries and Harrington are killing Gallo.

"It ain't over till its over"---

by FreeBradshaw on Dec 2, 2009 7:32 PM EST reply actions  

to be fair

why do you think he was wide open?

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:33 PM EST up reply actions  

fair point.

"It ain't over till its over"---

by FreeBradshaw on Dec 2, 2009 7:33 PM EST up reply actions  

One night Jeffires is all over the court...

tonight he gets torched by Matt Barnes.

no nate in the first quarter

by ibnyc on Dec 2, 2009 7:34 PM EST reply actions  

two or three fouls on that last play

carter was hugging chandler through the original screen

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:34 PM EST reply actions  

can't blame him...

the Knicks have 10 turnovers after one quarter.

"It ain't over till its over"---

by FreeBradshaw on Dec 2, 2009 7:36 PM EST up reply actions  

no definitely not

im in d’antoni’s corner for another year or 2 at least

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 7:38 PM EST up reply actions  

Down 8.

Cut the shit and the turnovers…and this game is even.

"It ain't over till its over"---

by FreeBradshaw on Dec 2, 2009 7:36 PM EST reply actions  

agh

forgot to pee during that timeout. this is getting rough.

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:37 PM EST reply actions  

defense sucks and another Harrington brick....

youre not missing anything…

"It ain't over till its over"---

JEEZ!!!

I don’t care about a Florida charity….can I get a full screen of the game already?

So will Toney be a viable option at PG for this team next year? Or is he too much in the Nate mini guard mold?

by Stargazey on Dec 2, 2009 7:41 PM EST reply actions  

toney would be a good pg i think

but it would be nice if he had a two guard or SF that could help run the offense sometimes. Chandler or gallo improve their handles, or perhaps a free agent.

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 7:45 PM EST up reply actions  

weird thing is

remember how good his stroke looked in preseason? it looks awful again.

i think it’s a warm weather thing.

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:42 PM EST up reply actions  

true

but there was a fundamental difference in his form. it’s really odd.

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:44 PM EST up reply actions  

your right

he changes the energy right away, and he’s not a headcase

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 7:43 PM EST up reply actions  

That’s some purty ball movement.

by Stargazey on Dec 2, 2009 7:42 PM EST reply actions  

we could be good

if we passed that much every posession

by jayvb on Dec 2, 2009 7:43 PM EST up reply actions  

wow...

ball movement…bricks..hustling offensive rebounds…more bricks and a tip in.

Knicks 2009!

More auction....

how about the Magic auction away the win to the Knicks?

"It ain't over till its over"---

by FreeBradshaw on Dec 2, 2009 7:46 PM EST reply actions  

we pass up an open gallo

so wilson can shoot a contested 18 footer

by jayvb on Dec 2, 2009 7:46 PM EST reply actions  

WHen Harrington ends up with the ball...

only bad things happen.

Mike Breen is so shocked when Chris Duhon make a shot, it’s a little sad.

We're cleaning up the offensive glasss....

but larry Hughes needs to stop shooting.

gallo

has a good nose for the ball on the boards

by ibnyc on Dec 2, 2009 7:51 PM EST reply actions  

oy

lucky he was out of bounds on that last one

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 7:51 PM EST up reply actions  

theres nothing i hate more

than david lee taking jump shots.

david lee takes so many of those and rarely makes them

by jayvb on Dec 2, 2009 7:57 PM EST up reply actions  

5 on 2 break.

WOW.

"It ain't over till its over"---

by FreeBradshaw on Dec 2, 2009 7:58 PM EST reply actions  

and Duhon has a shot to foul

…and strolls away like a pussy.

great block by lewis

great flop by jeffries.

defense comes in all forms

Every Larry Hughes jumper...

sinks the Knicks further into a hole.

they must still be having nightmares

from jeffries gettin a +30 plus minus against them

wow

another ghetto stomping. quick turnaround…a knicks beatdown can do that to you

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 8:07 PM EST up reply actions  

30 pts in a half?

Nash has 6 turnovers…J-Rich 0-8 and no points, 2 bench points

…damn.

Could a team play 2 worse games?

nate harrington jeffries for an expiring t-mac and 2nd rounder

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 8:51 PM EST up reply actions  

mehhhhhhhhh

donnie would pull the trigger i bet though. mcgrady’s a no risk, big reward. and those guys gone means more TD and Hill. plus a pick is a pick, and we magically have more cap room

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 8:54 PM EST up reply actions  

i mean

let mcgrady expire and that’s a salary cap wet dream

by Seth on Dec 2, 2009 8:54 PM EST up reply actions  

didn’t Houston say they wouldn’t take a non-expiring for T-Mac? The problem is while Jeffries can be useful, the one thing Houston does not need is a scrappy defender.

by Nolan B on Dec 2, 2009 8:56 PM EST up reply actions  

i wish i was rich

and could buy a team. and yeah, maybe curry instead of jeffries for a low post scoring option. Course he would have to play way better and often for that to happen this year

by Ray Smuckles on Dec 2, 2009 8:57 PM EST up reply actions  

of course

its gunna take a lot to convince a team to pick up either jeffries or curry without giving up another bad contract in return
