Rose out. Go Knicks
DUMB back to back

James is nauseating.
Have the Cavs missed yet?

Must be nice to coast through an entire NBA season knowing you're going to the Finals.
Of course opponents  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 12/7/2016 8:21 pm : link
Can't miss behind the arc against us.
This is already looking like a potential blowout.  
guitarguybs12 : 12/7/2016 8:23 pm : link
James pissed at Jackson, Can't miss 3's...Knicks turnovers, ugh. hope they pick it up like last night.
More of the Courtney Lee blooper reel.

Hard to believe he's been traded 400 times.
Tough playing a back to back

Vs the Cavs. And the refs.
If they were calling walks the way they're called in college now,  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 12/7/2016 8:31 pm : link
the Cavs would have 10 turnovers already.

James body checked Jennings among the baseline  
B in ALB : 12/7/2016 8:40 pm : link
Right by the Knicks bench. No call.

KP was fouled under the hoop during his first bucket. No call.

Multiple traveling violations. No calls.

It's almost unwatchable and like a home court advantage for the visiting team.

The refs clearly don't want to upset James.
Cavs spent 60% of the first quarter running around with the ball  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 12/7/2016 8:42 pm : link
without actually dribbling it.
KOQ has James hair paint

Derrick Rose - G - Knicks
An MRI of Derrick Rose (back) revealed no structural damage.
He is listed as day-to-day and is expected to travel with the Knicks for their upcoming road trip. Rose said he's dealt with fatigue in his side and legs, so the Knicks may opt to just give him a few days off. If he is going to miss more time, Brandon Jennings would get most of the run with Ron Baker behind him.

Knicks probably would have lost anyways but this back to back shit is silly. Especially for a guy like Melo and Jennings with no real backup.

that Melo did at him isn't the official admitting that player is right?

tristan thompson literally shoves every defender in his way and never gets called for a foul...

meanwhile lebron is flailing around the court like a ballerina..

no rose and a back to back, knicks no shot of winning

the way Love just literally jumped INTO the Knicks player. No foul? Really?
the officials are horrible

so vujacic gets called for an offensive foul, but love jumps into a guy and no call...
I'm late to the party on this one  
mfsd : 12/7/2016 9:52 pm : link
And looks like I haven't missed much. We'd need Rose at his best to even compete with this Cavs team...and even then, we probably can't compete with them for long.

like jeff van gundy said, when the cavs are making their 3s and getting the benefit of the whistle they are unbeatable, they have nearly tripled the amount of free throws, absolutely ridiculous

Actually, they've more than quadrupled the free throws

really frustrating that when good teams do it, it's consider ok. Like the Seahawks.
jennings is good off the bench for a reason  
nygiants16 : 12/7/2016 10:00 pm : link
the knicks first unit missed roses ability to drive into the paint and break down a defense..

for as good of a passer jennings is he doesnt live in the paont and he is not a finisher...

plus back to back, knicks had no chance..

plus the cavs are shooting 50& from 3, when shumpert is making 3s you know you are done..

only problem is we got to hear jalen rose, michelle beadle and chauncey billups rip the knicks because they never watch them and will say they suck..

I thought they were going to get blown out yesterday,  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 12/7/2016 10:12 pm : link
so this performance is hardly a surprise. But the league is never going to get rid of/drastically reduce back to backs or 3 games in 4 nights, so people will pay full price and watch a shitty product... that is if the coach doesn't bench some players to begin with for "rest".

The Knicks will be 12-10 after this game, with 5 losses on the second night of a back to back.
cavs shot 50% from 3  
nygiants16 : 12/7/2016 10:19 pm : link
and somehow shot 31 free throws compared to 9 for the knicks, good job refs you got your wish
Cavs just running it up now chucking 3's in the last minute  
guitarguybs12 : 12/7/2016 10:29 pm : link
Fuckers.
What Lebron James was doing with that water bottle  
eightshamrocks : 12/7/2016 10:33 pm : link
game should have been a technical foul-he threw it on the court. That is extremely disrespectful of your opponent. James is a conceded jack ass.

It's going to take the Knicks playing a perfect game or a bunch of Cavs injuries to get a win against them this year.

when cavs are hitting their 3s and lebron is attacking getting to the line they are unbeatable..

rose being out hurt because knicks lost the guy whoncan break down a defense and back to back melo had nothing you could tell no lift on anything...no excuse cavs kicked the knicks asd but losses like this help because now the knicks knownjust how much farther they need to go
The ghost of the Knicks showed up briefly last night - KOQ  
GiantsUA : 12/8/2016 8:29 am : link
body foul/head shot on LBJ, great foul, great job.

Not excited about seeing Lance Thomas back in the line-up, his play does not inspire confidence.

Guys are prideful, water bottle et. is disrespectful, would like to see Knicks pull this tape out later in the season and show it during film work.

They played them opening night when the starting 5 had never played together before and on the 3rd game in 4 nights. The final 2 times they play the Cavs will probably be better examples to use on how well they can play against Cleveland. They might get blown out again, but these were 2 nearly impossible situations for the Knicks to ply well against a very good team.

i would show that to them before the saturday night game on abc at the garden
Lol at thinking the Knicks had a shot to win this one.  
Ten Ton Hammer : 12/8/2016 9:16 am : link
These are called scheduled NBA losses.

Knicks got the cavs on the second night of a back to back. Cavs came in on like 4 days rest atop all the other advantages they have, including refs. They never had a shot.

knicks realistically can go 4-1 on this trip  
nygiants16 : 12/8/2016 9:25 am : link
more likely go 3-2 but the teams are not very good and there are no back to backs on the trip...

and after they play gs they get 2 days off before denver
Back to backs are lame  
santacruzom : 12/8/2016 9:24 pm : link
The Warriors are playing in Utah one night after playing in LA. They probably didn't even get to the hotel until 2 am, and are playing a game at 5 pm their time. In elevation.

Of course, they're way better than Utah so they ought to pull it out anyway.
