Game Thread: Knicks at Sonics- 2-2-08

by Seth on Feb 2, 2008 9:41 PM EST in Game Threads

Oh, hi. You're still here? Alright, then. The downtrodden Knicks end their disappointing Western road trip this evening with a visit to Seattle. After 4 straight heartbreaks in would-be upsets, the Knicks finally get to face a losing team in the Sonics. Will New York finally register a win against weaker competition or will the weary Knicks lay an egg?

I'll be here for the thread and to recap later on. We deserve a victory at long last. Get them W's.

(P.S. That guy up there? One of my favorites of all time.)

one of my favorite Crisp moments

and I have like a top 50 Mike Crispino moments list that I keep, is during the Knicks-Bucks game. just listen to what he says after Curry hits the three:

sounds like Howard Dean slurring 6 different words together

His commentary during the Francis buzzer beater

was my favorite, though.

Kinda ironic....

that Shawn Kemp is on the cover for SI for Kids, considering that if a child reads this, there is a 20% chance that he or she is the child of Kemp himself

scary moment

I could have sworn I saw Steve Francis in a Knick uniform, and I was like "What the hell?", but then I looked closer and said, "Oh, it's just Fred Jones"...but then I remembered, "Oh shit, Fred Jones sucks balls".

so I went from horrified to relieved to clinically depressed all in a matter of a few seconds.

cha cha slide

anybody get as excited as I do when they hear, "Everybody clap your hands" from the stadium PA systems? no matter where the location, time, or situation, I gotta clap my hands along to it.

it's ok JoshL

I know quite a bit of overweighted white people who do the cha-cha slide quite well. I try not to stand too close to them when they have to hop due to fear of falling and getting trampled, but they do it better than some slim minorities

as an Indian, my people don't traditionally dance well unless it is in a massive group (look up any Indian people dancing on youtube), so the cha cha slide works perfectly for me. until that guy tells me to cha cha real smooth and I have to do something original and on my own, I kinda get screwed there.

"I know Clyde"

According to Clyde, that's "The secret password".

Take that for what you will.

Jamal is so selfish

He's making all his jumpers now, but where were those made shots when we needed them last night? Oh, you can't get us a basket when we need to win, but you can score meaningless shots in the 2nd quarter? What a jerk. He probably clubs baby seals and table tops the elderly in his spare time.

Did Clyde just called Durant "Durunt"?

and was it done on purpose?

probably

this is the same guy who's been saying "borkman" for quite a while.

That's become such a running joke in our house

that and the way he adds that pause inbetween things he says. Such a genius.

Collison

it pisses me off whenever I see Nick Collison do well because I really wanted the Knicks do draft him in 03, but NO, we had to take Sweetney. oh well, if we had taken him, maybe we wouldn't have taken Lee as we had reached our quota for white rebounders, so maybe it's all for the best

also could u imagine

if we won all 5 games cuz every game this was EXTREMELY possible. we could have been feeling amazing by the end of the week but now we know for sure this is a beasley/rose/gordan/mayo year.

or kenny george if only because if he curry and zbo are on the floor at once no doubt the court will crack in half

by antnyk on Feb 3, 2008 1:53 AM EST reply actions

I didn't even watch

I'm trying to come up with reasons to care about this season anymore, other than pulling for more lottery balls.

by HUSTLE HARDER on Feb 3, 2008 8:01 AM EST reply actions

You see what Isiah's admitting today??

No consistent point guard = no consistent success! Like I've BEEN saying, fuck winning this year! Everybody repeat after me: DERRICK ROSE, DERRICK ROSE, DERRICK ROSE! I'm starting to think Miami is tanking too, trying to get Beasley.

by HUSTLE HARDER on Feb 3, 2008 9:38 AM EST reply actions

I said the same thing about the Kings

earlier this season. I wanted Derrick Rose. I'm now at the point that Beasley and Rose would be on my wish list lol. (The Kings don't suck. They're just stuck in the West at the moment. Unlike the Knicks where they've been Isiah'd so long it's impossible to hate them.)

When will Isiah's reign of horror end? I want to hate the Knicks again....
