Game Thread: Knicks at Cavaliers- 11-2-07

by Seth on Nov 2, 2007 7:20 PM EDT in Game Threads

I'm late on this, but the Knicks' season begins tonight in Cleveland. This should be an interesting opening test for the 'Bockers. Some combination of Richardson and Balkman will be sent to handle LeBron James, but defense of Zydrunas Ilgauskas- who can hit a J or two- will be key as well.

The game starts in a few so let's get this shit goin. If you're watching, leave some comments. I'll participate in the game thread, and will be back with a recap some time tomorrow afternoon.

GET THEM W'S!

rotation...

right now what im just praying for is a consistent rotation...

the 5 starters. lee, balkman, nate, collins/jones off the bench. it would just be so nice. im gonna throw up the beef and broccoli i just ate if malik rose sees the light of day.

i'm only able to watch

the lame ass wizards on tv here in DC

I'm think I'm gonna average like 10 points, like 12-13 dimes, like 2.. 3 assists and about 4 -5 rebounds

Was out, but watching

Notes: New warmups? Ugly as shit.
I was walking home from the subway, and I looked up at the Empire State Building, which is lit orange and blue. I'm sure it's a coincidence, but I pumped my fist and said "FUCK YES" in a much more audible tone of voice than I had wanted to say it. There was only one other guy on the corner, and he had his headphones on and was singing The Who in a surprisingly feminine singing voice.

And, oh yeah, BASKETBALL IS BACK IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK

No no no

To be a successful, or just awesome, team, you need one thing: kickass matching jumpsuits, like the early 90's pistons.
The Knicks warmpus never even match, because some guys like short sleeves, long sleeves.... fuck it. We need jumpsuits.

I'll re-think it

it was a rash judgment. These types of things need time to settle. Like how I thought the St. Patricks day jerseys when they unveiled them, but by the time they were actually wearing them I violently hated them.
