Game Thread: Knicks at Cavaliers- 1/25/12

New York Knicks at Cleveland Cavaliers, Jan 25, 2012 7:00 PM EST



Evening, grapefaces! The Knicks' road trip continues tonight in Cleveland, the Land of Enchantment. We were getting a little excited that Baron Davis might make his Knicks debut (in a cameo) this evening, but he will not do that. The rest of the Knicks, however, will play, and will look to build upon last night's merciless smothering of the Bobcats.

The Cavs own a nearly identical record to the Knicks and have added Kyrie Irving to a lineup that throttled New York a few times last season (although they subtracted Baron Davis, who killed the Knicks at least once), so I wouldn't count on another blowout.

Meanwhile, New York will be wearing white because the Cavs want to wear their "wine jerseys". Don't be alarmed.

Comment here if you're watching, check out Fear the Sword, and please refrain from posting photos, .gifs, illegal streams, and e-books about ox leather in the thread. Let's make it two straight, eh Knicks?

Tip-off's at 7.

I sure hope that . . .

We continue to build off the positive things the Knicks did against the Bobcats, and not regress. Our Knickerbockers are definitely no rocket scientists, but even the dimmest of bulbs on the team had to notice the benefits of good ball movement and getting everyone involved. I just hope that wasn’t a one game wonder!! I nervously await tip off to see which direction we go.

Knicks in white? I have a bad feeling about this.

really?

i think we’ll be okay, since the Knicks aren’t playing at home. maybe if the morons who go to the Garden wouldn’t boo every time the Knicks lose the lead, then we wouldn’t be so afraid of wearing the white jerseys.

Most Likely to Have a Career Game Tracker

Tonight’s contestants are Kyrie Irving and Samardo Samuels!

Irving has been playing some tremendous basketball of late and really fits into this Cleveland team, now that his teammates have gotten over how annoying his Australian accent is.

Samardo Samuels is our sleeper pick because I like alliterations.

Interesting fact: Although they have never met, I feel Landry Fields and Mychel Thompson will soon become fast friends. They will bond over their mutual love of California universities.

i think Wall is getting pretty close to being ruined, since he’s gonna be stuck on that horrible Washington squad for a while. he’s gonna be one of those dudes who has all the talent but never plays for a winning team.

knuckleheads! i mean, blatche, mcgee, nick young, a bitter rashard lewis…

not a good environment. and now they have an awful interim coach? and possibly poor upper management? i dunno man. i think that place is toxic. at least cleveland can turn it around.

Yeah, but . . .

To make his debut against the team that amnestied him without having played in a game in so long would be a little cruel. We can expect that he is gonna look like crap for many games until he shakes that rust, and I am sure he would rather not make the Cavs happy for letting him go.

No one is talking about lead changes

also just playing through it can stop the run too just as quickly. Law of averages just plays right out.

For those that don’t I’m sure you at least remember that he’s a hardcore conservative Christian

by superturboultra on Jan 25, 2012 8:13 PM EST up reply actions  

wiki.

“In 2001, while playing for the Knicks, it was discovered that Ward had made disparaging comments about Jews during a Bible-study session, comments that were eventually leaked to the press. Among the comments made: “Jews are stubborn…tell me, why did they persecute Jesus unless he knew something they didn’t want to accept…They had his blood on their hands.”6

Unsurprisingly, there was outrage directed at Ward from Jewish groups, the public, as well as the Knicks organization itself. Ward defended himself by saying “I didn’t mean to offend any one group because that’s not what I’m about. I have friends that are Jewish. Actually, my friend is a Jewish guy, and his name is Jesus Christ.”6 He also said the quotes were taken out of context, as he stated that “Jews are stubborn” in speaking to what he perceived to be their disinclination to convert to Christianity.7"

as a jew, I’ll forgive him because I love the way his name was yelled in the starting lineups when I was a little kid.

Yeah, but they teased us last night . . .

By playing smart, moving the ball, taking good shots, and now they just yanked it all back and said PSYCH to us fans. That’s why this one really hurts. I am pretty sure this is how the Knicks get their kicks!

It's clear to me why we suck

The Knicks were unable to salvage any of the talent they acquired over the last 5 years. They were a complete BUST in this regard. They have NO one left but 3 or 4 guys that can play. I blame Dolan and never D’antoni and Walsh.

3 pt shooting too

The 3pt shooting here makes John Starks’ Game 7 performance look just fine.
Can D’Antoni coach a team that doesn’t hit 3s? Cuz he sorta has to.

I really enjoyed seeing Varejao

I was hoping for..what was I hoping for? I can’t remember..I all I know is that I really wanted the Knicks to get him last season somehow..even after he was injured. He’s just a winner. He’s great

by BJabs on Jan 25, 2012 9:18 PM EST reply actions  

Varejao better than Chandler?

If this is the only b-ball you’ve ever watched, than yes he is

by bugsy33 on Jan 25, 2012 9:21 PM EST up reply actions  

No

He’s just the latest middle-tier player that the Knicks made look like an all-star.
And I think there’s a valid argument to be made that, if he can play like this, then Varejao plus $7mil in salary cap space is better than Chandler (and I like Chandler — a lot).
This loss wasn’t Chandler’s fault. It was mostly the guards and the bench. But the reason we have such a shitty backcourt and bench is that we put all our money in 3 players. It’s worth pointing out how much more you can get when you put together a full team instead of a starting front court.

I think there's only one explanation for TD's crappy play

It’s become clear that aliens from another planet have come to earth and stolen his talent in order to play a basketball game against Michael Jordan and the looney tunes. There’s no other possible explanation.

But most importantly he is better than anyone off our bench and 2 our starters. Sign him trade douglas and bibby for a second round pick

it's weird

toney is pretty playing like he did last year, except like he has broken hands and as a result is shooting more. turnovers way up. shooting way more. missing all of them.

by mindfeck on Jan 25, 2012 9:26 PM EST reply actions  

I remember at Prudential against the Nets Amare was out

Toney had like 28 pts and he was clutch toward the end. I was there

by Melo Fellow on Jan 25, 2012 9:29 PM EST up reply actions  

Tony

played very well after the first month or so last year. He started off really cold, and then started really putting it together. And it wasnt the magical pre=trade team everybody loves so much, because that game where he hit like 11 threes was after the trade IIRC

i dont think he missed any time

he may have, but i remember ghe had the bum shoulder all season. it seemed tio really bother him early, but after the first dozen or so games he looked sharp. And he played backup point so he was still handling the rock, I think the forced into a position cliche is exactly that. Tony handled it plenty last year. He is just playing like garbage

Well the criticism seems to be we always lose because he's such a ballhog

All he does is ISO and chuck and wah wah wah

Tonight he passed to the open man who then clunked a wide open three.

Who was shooting well?

What could Melo have done that would have won this game?

Shot better? I could say the same of Amar’e or TD or Shump or Landry and they have 2 good wrists apiece.

Not to mention that I think tonight disproves the theory that if Melo passed more in the 4th quarter we win every time!

obviously since TD can't shoot at all he was to blame also

D’Antoni played the wrong players as usual.
Amar’e is playing stupid.
Melo shouldn’t have shot so much because he’s injured.
Knicks don’t have a very good team.
