Game Thread: Knicks vs. Hawks- 3/4/2009
Atlanta Hawks at New York Knicks, Mar 4, 2009 7:30 PM EST
Hello, babyfaces. Tonight's New York Knicks game features the visiting Atlanta Hawks. Things were looking up after the last time the Knicks faced ATL, but have gone decidedly downhill since then. New York's gone 4-10 since that point, and Mike D'Antoni's playoff push is fading past. The Hawks are a big, athletic team, so a couple days off will hopefully boost New York's energy. The Knicks may have a slightly different look tonight. The starting lineup is expected to include Duhon, Hughes, Chandler, Harrington, and Lee. Jeffries will move to the bench while Quentin Richardson may never be seen again. Meanwhile, Nate Robinson's ankle is bothering him and we've got the newly Knicked (it's like being knighted, only for the Knicks) Cheikh Samb on the bench. Samb's an instant P&T favorite, so we'll hopefully get to see him this evening as well as a trigger-happy Danilo Gallinari.
Come on by for comments and check out Peachtree Hoops for expert Hawks analysis and some David Lee idolatry (something to which we can all relate). Also, I'll give a pack of Oreo Cakesters to anybody who can guess that mid-90's Atlanta Hawk without cheating.

Why has Larry Hughes...
been thrust into all this playing time at the expense of Wilson Chandler? I thought Chandler was having a breakout season, then he’s suddenly pushed aside for a journeyman like Hughes, who’s never really lived up to the hype. I don’t get it.
I don't normally do this, but I felt compelled to tell you something. You have an absolutely breath-taking... heiney. I mean, that thing's good. I wanna be friends with it
i think
it’s been more at the expense of quentin richardson. D’Antoni’s made it pretty clear that Chandler will get his minutes, since he’s part of the future.

im thinking so
though i dont know if its the cheikh samb masala or cheikh samb vindaloo though. both are tasty.
Anyway, you should check out the movie "Black and White," which actually stars Allan Houston. It’s not a comedy, but rather a really serious and emotional movie. - Wilson Chandler

mmmm
that vindaloo

watching on iddaliyim
so its in some random ass language, but i heard the announcers say something like “mar-veen will-yeems blaga do ganoush mar yelbe.” and trust me, the “blaga do ganoush mar yelbe” was full of disdain. it turns out hating on marvin williams is the universal language.

idalliyim is like santa
he must stop by websites all over the internet to deliver links at just the right moment, so he can’t linger. he will eat your cookies though and leave toys for your children.

i'm in for the second half.
i guess there were no samb sightings in the first, but hey, we’re winning.
indeed
i’m feeling a samb sighting though. is it bad that i’m rooting for foul trouble?
Posting and Toasting: "Say yo Oak, what's the dish tonight? A couple steaks on the grill and we season it right."
larry hughes with a triple
did he actually play well in the first half? i see he has 13, but, he could’ve taken like 12 fadeaways
he did
relatively reasonable shots and d’d up johnson pretty well

pretty solid game
gallo’s gotten silly a few times, hughes is playing decently, overall good effort
Posting and Toasting: "Say yo Oak, what's the dish tonight? A couple steaks on the grill and we season it right."
gallo + silliness
sounds good. also Bucks have already lost and New Jersey is losing, so good news on that front.

dude watching on iddaliyim is great
due to constant buffering, during the last ten minutes ive seen two clips, danilo getting called for a bad foul and al harrington high-fiving all of his teammates. i think ive gotten a feel for the game.
