NFT: NBA: Knicks vs Cavs

LawrenceTaylor56 : 10/30/2014 7:10 pm
Ugh. Brutal first two games.

Couple things:

-Calderon is out 2-3 weeks after MRI reveals calf strain

-Knicks had 47 elbow touches in game 1. They averaged 18.7 per game last year.

-Knicks passed the ball 357 times last night. Averaged 282 last year.

-STAT will be second string center tonight.

Don't see how we win this game  
Giantology : 10/30/2014 7:13 pm : link
But I'll tune in anyway I guess
Wish we could fast forward to January.  
bceagle05 : 10/30/2014 7:18 pm : link
Gonna be a rough stretch, especially the time without Calderon.
There's no way I'm missing the dawn of a new era in Cleveland  
Greg from LI : 10/30/2014 7:18 pm : link
The Joe Harris era!

keeping  
MookGiants : 10/30/2014 7:19 pm : link
it within 20 would be a minor victory. Even if we had a good squad keeping it within 20 would be a moral victory, this is a buzz saw tonight
We literally have no chance on the planet tonight.  
arcarsenal : 10/30/2014 7:24 pm : link
I'm pretty sure I'll be spending most of tonight on the NO/CAR game.
This Cleveland team is going to need time to come together  
robbieballs2003 : 10/30/2014 7:25 pm : link
but it has the potential to be better than the team in Miami.

I don't get all these Knicks fans worrying. I'm listening to the radio on the way home and people are calling up complaining. Did they think because Phil Jackson is part of the organization that we were an instant contender? I don't get it. We should know we are going to suck until next year or two years from now. This is nothing new for Knicks fans as we have been terrible for over a decade. We had a little glimmer of hope when we signed Amar'e and then traded for Melo but it takes more than that to build a legit contender.
all I want to see  
MookGiants : 10/30/2014 7:26 pm : link
from the Knicks this year is effort and progress. I'd like to see Hardaway take a step forward, same with Shumpert although I'm not very optimistic on Shumpert. Just get better and actually give a shit on the court and I'll be satisfied
I'm not worried about shumpert  
nygiants16 : 10/30/2014 7:34 pm : link
He won't be here next year

I wanna see thjr improve on defense and not chuck

I want eaerly to keep improving as the year goesa on

I want fight from this team no matter who they are playing

Wins and losses are secondary this year it's about learning the system and getting melo comfortable in that system
I don't know  
tdbeckum : 10/30/2014 7:35 pm : link
Much about triangle but in 1st half we missed
2/3 of shots...Stat was 4 for 4 but other players
missed lots of short shots...we cant shoot
Yeah, I'm a little surprised by some of the outrage..  
arcarsenal : 10/30/2014 7:36 pm : link
People I know and people calling the radio, etc.. people are already like "this is gonna be a LONG year.. this team sucks"

What did people expect? I don't get it.

Of course they suck. There are new players, a new coach, a new system and an overall lack of talent. It was never going to happen overnight. They'll get better. But no one in their right mind could have expected Phil to turn this into a contender in one summer with barely any cap space to work with. It's going to take a little time.
Not gonna lie, though..  
arcarsenal : 10/30/2014 7:47 pm : link
It's really cool seeing LeBron back in Cleveland. I got over my irrational dislike of him after his first 2 years in MIA but it was still hard to really like him on that team even after that.
Good start for Knicks  
yankeeslover : 10/30/2014 8:14 pm : link
Question..maybe i missed it..but why are the Cavs wearing their away uniforms?
ANNNDDDD  
yankeeslover : 10/30/2014 8:18 pm : link
as sooon as i say that
3 on 2  
MookGiants : 10/30/2014 8:18 pm : link
fast break and Larkin pulls up for a jumper. That then leads to a LeBron and one on the other end, dumb
Larkin is just not very good  
robbieballs2003 : 10/30/2014 8:20 pm : link
.
Knicks look great  
B in ALB : 10/30/2014 8:21 pm : link
And by great, I mean horrific.

Whatever. It's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

Hang in there fellas.
Jeez  
Joey from GlenCove : 10/30/2014 8:35 pm : link
It will take until jan. They will fight for the bottom 2 seeds.

Maybe they will move for rando
Commercial of LeBron shirtless working out.  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 10/30/2014 8:45 pm : link
Is MoM okay? Haha
I know it's very very early  
nygiants16 : 10/30/2014 8:45 pm : link
But I do not like this rotation at all...12 guys in the first quarter?

Ware should not be on the court...smith looked to be getting into rhythm then taking out

Players can't play 5 minute spurts
Ok i am happy lebron is back in cleveland and will be rooting for him  
ODBeast : 10/30/2014 8:47 pm : link
to bring a finally bring a championship to cleveland once the nets fall out of it but man are these constant commercials about his return is really getting annoying
Knicks  
AcidTest : 10/30/2014 9:10 pm : link
only down by two at half.

LeBron 1/9, and there turnovers I think. Cut him.

the Knicks are in trouble. If he continues to struggle, we might have a punchers chance
Jason Smith reminds me of someone  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 10/30/2014 9:37 pm : link
you find on the sideline of a pickup game wanting next.
Spike Lee looks great in his orange and blue  
B in ALB : 10/30/2014 9:39 pm : link
because he's a fucking clown. Fuck him.

Yeah? Next what? Another season playing in the best league in the world?

Please shut the fuck up.
why  
MookGiants : 10/30/2014 9:42 pm : link
was the FSU wide receiver allowed to spike the ball?
Charles barkley is unbearable  
Giants4246 : 10/30/2014 9:44 pm : link
Please go away motherfucker.
That  
AcidTest : 10/30/2014 9:44 pm : link
was an incredible pass by Love, but the Knicks are playing well.
if you blink  
MookGiants : 10/30/2014 9:45 pm : link
you will miss Jason Smith hitting a jumper.

Are you an idiot? It was a joke. Wanting next on the court means they want in on the next pickup game. Go outside.
Knicks  
AcidTest : 10/30/2014 9:46 pm : link
are really passing the ball well. Doing a very good job finding the open player, who then makes the shot.
Knicks look  
Phil in LA : 10/30/2014 9:47 pm : link
much better so far tonight.
Starting to enjoy the game  
Giantology : 10/30/2014 9:48 pm : link

of course lebron coming up small in one  
chris r : 10/30/2014 9:55 pm : link
Of the biggest sporting events ever. Psyched himself out.
What in the fuck is Amar'e doing on that play?  
arcarsenal : 10/30/2014 9:59 pm : link
.
Lebron literally turned the ball over about 4 times in the final 2  
Giants11 : 10/30/2014 9:59 pm : link
minutes of the third qtr without one violation being called

Oh really? Is that what it means? Listen you fat fuck. I've played plenty of ball in my life. Plenty more than you I'm sure.

Your comment on Smith makes no fuckin sense. Smarten up.
Quincy Acy is a bad dude.

Knicks don't look great, cavs just look worse.

Miller and Barkley are two of my least favorite guys to listen to.
B in ALB, quit being a douche.  
kmed : 10/30/2014 10:05 pm : link
His "joke" while lame, is like any dumb comment you and the rest of these guys make on a daily basis. No reason to attack tough guy.

You know it's bad when Miller sounds like the voice of reason.

Barkleys schtick is getting played out like Tori Black's snapper.
LeBron's hairline is so confusing.  
arcarsenal : 10/30/2014 10:05 pm : link
It spends years disappearing... randomly comes back a couple months ago, disappears again.. then reappears in this car commercial.. but now it's not there.

I should really post this on the mystery thread. I am just so confused by it.

Pahahaha. Thanks for the chuckle. Played plenty of ball in your life. I bet you could even dunk in your bunny slippers. Averaged 20/10 as the real life Juwanna Mann.

nygiants16 : 10/30/2014 10:06 pm : link
Do we really have to hear after every shot how it's not the triangle??
I hope someone, somewhere  
kmed : 10/30/2014 10:07 pm : link
is tracking Lebrons hairline and one day shows a timeline with pics. I'm confident someone is.

Eaaaaasy, Dungeons and Dragons. Settle down. Stick to fantasy make believe and let the adults discuss sports.

That's really all I was trying to say. Typical white guy who isn't the most athletic with the ball in his hands but can knockdown the open jumper.
