Game Thread: Knicks at Celtics- 3/17/10
New York Knicks at Boston Celtics, Mar 17, 2010 7:30 PM EDT
Happy St. Patrick's Day, onion eaters. It's the Knicks and the Celtics tonight in Boston, Ireland. Wilson Chandler, as mentioned below, will not play. J.R. Giddens, meanwhile, might get to suit up against his former club. Per Alan Hahn, the Knicks will be wearing white on the road again, while the Cetics will be in some green unis. Tophats optional. (Is a leprechaun hat a tophat? What kind of hat is that?).
Tipoff's at 7:30. Get nice and saucy in the meantime and come on by to comment throughout the game. Don't forget to stop by Celtics Blog, as well as Celtics Town (li'l non-SBN treat for ya).

Might help if everyone played by the same rules
Instead of some getting the ‘star’ treatment. The trickle down from doing the 2 step in the paint seems to have affected the college game already.
I’m ready for laser-eyed robots in a striped shirt. Just think no more arguing becasue you know the call was right! Should shorten games 10 minutes across the league, too.
Ask me the NBA glory days ended television no longer carried the majority of games. Think how many young’uns no longer get to watch especially with the economic climate.

I get tired as well, but it is nice when your college is in the NCAA tournament like mine.
Darrelle Revis once won a game of Connect Four in three moves.

That is what everyone thought the last two years.
Darrelle Revis once won a game of Connect Four in three moves.
Good luck though :)
The Noles have Gonzaga and then Syracuse in Buffalo. Not liable to win more than one. But there is hope…for now.

Siena upset? I find that unlikely considering they beat none of the Big Ten they faced.

i rooted for them last year because (i think) they’re geographically closest to my own college. i’ll probably do the same this year if i get a chance to watch them.
Oh yeah, He was more awkward last year.

I actually like Simmons, but he can be iritating with his Boston "woe is us" mentality.
Why do i look at Popivich with a arm around a player talking with 2 minutes left, and get jealous?
by semsemma on Mar 10, 2010 8:00 PM PST
Well
I’m a big Simmons fan, and I get what you’re saying. But he’s aware that the last ten years have been marvelous for his teams, and he doesn’t gripe in the same way. When he does, I find it so similar to my own experiences that I appreciate his ability to capture the feelings.
Except for his post-XLII column, which I read ever-so-giddily.
