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

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

ew
marbury, you asshole. stop staring at the ref.

also, david looking like an offensive wizard out there.

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

i dunno

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.

three stripes, though
pretty cool i thought

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.

OH COME ON.
what a bullshit foul call. sometimes the star treatment in this league gets to me.

Gus just said "rakes it and takes it!"
He's learning from the master!
I forget how much I miss Gus and Clyde.

Z-bo and curry in transition?
i must be seeing things.

HALFTIME ANALYSIS
PROS
  1. Curry and Randolph seem to gelling well.
  2. Set rotation of our 9 actually good players (+ fred jones who's alright).
  3. Good offensive continuity.
CONS
  1. REBOUNDS!
  2. Turnovers
  3. Getting pushed around inside (understandable considering the Cavs are so strong inside, even w/o varejao)
  4. Not picking up shooters.
Overall, I like the way we look out there right now.

AHHHHHHHH
Eddy is playing d!
Zach is hitting college 3's!
Jamal is slamming down monster dunks!
Haha, motherfuckers!

Did he really say he's going to interview the RZA?
Gus Johnson and the Wu-Tang clan defines this site 100 percent.
