Relive The Dream
What better way to kill some time on a long summer day than a trip down memory lane? I've linked to partial videos of this game before, but now Game 3 of the 1999 Eastern Conference Finals between the Knicks and Pacers is online in its entirety, courtesy of Youtube user "gengiskhan29325". For the truly bored, here's Part 1 of the video. For the less intrepid, I recommend skipping to the late teens and 20's for the meat of the action, with Part 23 being the money segment. I also enjoyed watching Part 22, which gives you the lead-up to the notorious shot. I had completely forgotten how close Marcus Camby was to a three-point play just seconds before LJ made magic.
Oh, and I know it wasn't a foul. Doesn't bother me anymore.

Game Thread: SummerKnicks vs. SummerSpurs: 7-16-08
Today's relevant news story is that the Clippers acquired Marcus Camby last night in exchange for a second round pick. These are the same Clippers who appeared ready to welcome Zach Randolph, cumbersome contract and all (and I don't mean "and all" as a throwaway phrase. I'm talking about this.). Given L.A.'s unique situation of having like 4 players financially committed to their team, along with the sparse package they offered in return for Z-Bo, you've gotta wonder if the Randolph sweepstakes might be closed. And we won. Hooray. I suppose it's possible that the Clips would still want Zach to fill out their roster and form a starting frontcourt with Camby. Here's an artist's visual estimation of said frontcourt:
Electrifying. Anyway, we'll see what happens on that front, but it seems that our crusade to rid ourselves of Randolph has struck a hitch.
Meanwhile, Game 2 of Knicks Summer League action is today at 4 p.m. EST on MSG. This will serve as your thread for discussion should you be watching the game. I will not be, so the lovely Barnesgasm will be taking over in my stead. Anticipate dick jokes and references to Mystikal. Get them SummerW's.
