that game definitely changed my impression of the Knicks a bit (even though they blew that 21 pt lead). My head hurts, this season makes no sense.
No sir I fully get it, however unless I can unlaunch my nuke there is not much we can do about it. I also wasn't posting as much because I didn't fully read the rules yet LOL! - RebirthofLegend in WaW Mafia

I'm guessing they like Melo at the 4 now? Because of all the mismatches, he can iso against bigs all day long. What's gonna happen to Stat when he comes back?
And yeah, I'm feeling Philly falling out of the playoffs these days. They got trashed by the Celtics today.

Knicks have to go to Chicago, and then MIL and then host Miami, they might lose 3 straight here, schedule doesn't look good for the knicks, i was expecting them to be out of the 8th spot after these 4 game stretch. They started off great with a win, hope they keep it up.
Philly goes into a pretty easy stretch vs lottery teams, dont know the schedules of mil and nyk, but they should be fine in securing if they get their defense going again.

Knicks probably have the hardest schedule left of them, Philly and Milwaukee. But in saying that, they're also probably playing the best. I know the Bucks have to play NYC and Philly both of which could decide the 7/8 seeds.

"Once in a while"
Ofcourse, lol, nobody can do that every game or even every other game.Unlike defending, its a much easier thing to do compare to shooting in a do or die situation and actually make it.
Oh its easier to defend Derrick Rose (injury recovering or otherwise) as a first year Rookie 4 possessions in a row than make a shot your team got 3 tries at ? Yeahhhh right. They got bailed out by the FT misses but it doesnt change the fact that without that crazy good D. Melo can make as many shots as he wants and its all for squat.
A Melo level player will do that once in a while because Melo should be able to. Most players cant but he is Melo after all. If Shumpert doesnt do what he does Melo is pretty worthless.
I'm pretty glad Odom is gone. The mavs had to pamper him so much, hoping that he'd at least put in some effort for them, to the point that it was detrimental. They are definitely playing for next season now (sup dwill).
Playoffs are going to be so awesome this year.

The Bulls "Starting 5" is their worst lineup right now because Rip and Rose don't fit in with each other or any of the other players because of the injuries.
Not sure if u really follow the NBA ? worst lineup ? lol... a win is a win and pls dont try to take that away from the winner.
Bulls is a much better team with better roster/coach.
I'm not sure you understood my post.
I said that the Knicks shouldn't be too happy because the Bulls starting 5 was rustier than a 15 year old wheelbarrow. Whence, the 21 point lead they had was a fluke of pretty epic proportions (whence the 2nd half).

Well theyve had a couple of days to shake of the rust. Dont think theyll have much trouble tomorow. Would'nt mind being pleasantly surprised if the knicks win again.. Would make speculating for the playoffs somewhat interesting.

Doesn't matter what the Knicks did Sunday, they'll likely get swept by Miami or Chicago if they don't get out of the 7th/8th slots.

LOL oh my god
The warriors have been doing an excellent job of tanking to preserve their first round pick. I bet karma slaps them in the face and a team leaps over them to push them out of the top 7
