Ohhh, see; I'm more familiar with the "Wizard of Oz" rendition starring Michael Jackson.
I haven’t seen that obscure movie “Rush Hour 2” or whatever it is.

did kareem abdul jabbar come the closest in 1996?
or was it cecil the diesel collins?
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
I may be a cowboys fan, but my all time favorite qb was Dan Marino
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
jabbar
had like 900+ but not 1000…i think he was closest….that was when jimmy johnson tried to run the ball for 3 and a half quarters than say…ok dan just win the game

This commercial with the Mummy
makes me fucking die every time.
these NBA rap commercials are hilarious in an annoying way
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
my favorite ones are the "last shot" and "defense"
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
Agreed. The "Defense" one kills me.
SVG: “HEY! LET’S JUST KEEP THE ENERGY GOING AT THE DEFENSIVE END!”
get's me every time because of the way Dwight just kills him in interviews
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
since when did we start playing the tune to GO PACK GO at MSG?
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
r u conversing with yourself, should i leave you alone?
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
yo, how big are David Lee's balls?
He sees he’s being guarded by JOE JOHNSON, so he decides to work on his crossover.
Fantastic.
(pause pause pause!)
i'll admit, his writing style/personality is a perfect match for me
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
His basketball book was pretty good. He's not my favorite personality, but that book was well-researched and worth the read.
He shits on Ewing but shows MAAADDD love to Bernard and Clyde.
if it wasn't for Simmons, I don't know if I'd still be a fan of the Knicks or the NBA.
I was contemplating bailing on the NBA until I discovered Bill Simmons in 2006
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
that book is awesome, just finished chapters 1 and 2
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson

Clyde with the understatement of the night
the knicks need to discuss defense and get pep in their step
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
how about showing them the NBA defense rap video
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
i wanna hear everyone say the cock is getting better defensively and offensively
In Donnie We Trust!
his offensive slump may have helped him focus on his D.
Cuz that’s definitely taken a few steps up
Master of the squeegee
i dont believe in slumps when u are only getting to shoot 4 or 5 shots a game but i agree his defence is slowly becoming the second best on this team

Yo, serious question: Which is more likely for Al Harrington to register in a single game?
- 60 points
- 10 assists
+1
I thought the exact same thing.
He needs a bit more of a tan tho. The Deacon was burnt

Hey Seth
i just saw at the top of the thread that you went to the stats conference at MIT. Are you into advanced metrics in baseball?
by MetsKnicksRutgers on Mar 8, 2010 8:16 PM EST reply actions
don't know too much about it
mostly cause i’m not nearly as big a baseball fan as i am a basketball fan.
i do think that stuff is really cool, though.
I am
a big proponent of SABR in baseball but i dunno what to follow in basketball. PER and + / – seems ludicrous to me. Any suggestions
by MetsKnicksRutgers on Mar 8, 2010 8:20 PM EST up reply actions
there was a lot of talk about advanced +/-
but the stuff that really interested me was more about the amount of video stuff coaches and GMs use to scout other teams by establishing probabilities. synergy sports and whatnot. the GMs were all very secretive about what metrics they use.
not surprised about the gms being secretive, they don't want their luck to run dry like Billy Beane's did for a while
"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian." --Mike Tyson
Awesome
sounds like the new pitcher f/x hit f/x and fielding f/x they are instituting at ballparks now that track every batted ball, pitch and swing. i would ove to steal moreys notebook

both me and clyde
have no idea who jethro tull is.
well
a figure from the british agricultural revolution.
but breen was referring to the 70s band named after him.

Dad: “and where were you the day of your aunt’s funeral?”
Sandler: “jethro tull was having a reunion concert so i caught that instead.”

D. Lee, Chandler and Nate Robinson are all his reputation wrests on.
Lee – 20/10 – No D
Nate – 15/5/5 – Not a true 1, 2 and so can’t really play good D.
Chandler – Most promising of all the prospects, could possibly become a Shawn Marion or at worst (best?) a Josh Howard/Caron Butler.
He drafted Nene too.
I think the Knicks would just be a decent PG away from being good with Nene running the floor as our C
