Game Thread: Knicks vs. Celtics- 1-21-08

by Seth on Jan 21, 2008 12:47 PM EST in Game Threads

Good afternoon, amigos. Happy MLK Day. Take time today to consider the life and purpose of the man who dreamed of a better world.

I, too, have a dream that one day the New York Knicks will be able to play on a basketball court alongside the Boston Celtics and I won't be thoroughly nauseated long before tipoff. Unfortunately, we don't live in that world yet. The C's are in town this afternoon, and memories of this are already making my stomach turn. I hold out hope, because, after all, I did see the Knicks smoke the Pistons the other night. Anything can happen. But still....ugh. This is your thread/hotline/support group for the contest. Stay strong, brothers. Get them W's. Check out Green Bandwagon for the Boston perspective.

(By the way, I'm pretty sure Brian Scalabrine is illiterate. He's not a piece of meat, though. Interview from Perk is a Beast.)

The game is on!

it is on NBATV, which as it happens, is free this week. if you have cable or digital cable maybe you'll need, the game is on, as are all games from the 21-27. This was great news to me, I'm pumped!

As long as Perkins leads the team in scoring

We should be okay...

Finally starting playing

I'm guessing we were too tired before or something, they're beginning to play with a gusto right now.

29 - 23 at the end of the first

Knicks showing some potential, but this is not going to be a win if they keep playing like this.

I feel ya Seth

I don't get NBC, or WNBC, or have NBATV. those dicks at NBATV are giving Dish Network customers, which I have, a free preview this week, but I am getting every game EXCEPT the Knicks and Celtics cuz it's on the actual NBATV channel, which pisses me off to astronomical levels. But on the bright side, I can watch the Wizards play the Mavericks! Woopdie-fucking-doo! I'm watching Maury instead, they have 14 year old girls who want to have babies, it's delightful

Go Knicks!

Yes, they deserve to die, and I hope they burn in hell!
