I am usually against the undercutting charges but this one is on Ja. Lebron was there the whole time. Why are you trying to jump over him.

Miami showing Dallas they should have tried for the play in. That Dallas pick is ours, karma.

Best case is Miami and Bucks go 7 and batter themselves and Knicks can close out clev sooner than later.
Jaylen shoes protesting Naismith did not invent the game? Misspelled it?
Bad Karma.
One game at a time. Back to Clev on Wednesday.
Brunson been doing this **** his whole life.

This is where I'm at. I hate to start looking ahead but now the options are either playing a Heat team we can beat with home court advantage or an old Bucks team that had to fight for it's life. It all starts with the Knicks getting a win tonight. We haven't seen much from Randle and IQ yet who were two of our top 3 all season. Let's hope we can get a 15 point 1st quarter from Julius and 50% 3 point shooting from IQ, but most importantly- a win!

Or why not a 30 pt night from Obi and a 30 pt night from Grimes, or a 20 or night from Grimes or Deuce. Who cares where the production comes from ? Let Randal watch Obi do well and learn to like it and stop over dribbling and moping. Julius take your friggin Paxil or Lithium.

Definitely Miami, Giannis would eat Knicks bigs alive.

Is it me or doesn't Ja have an easy dump off to a teammate for an easy layup? Why is he trying to dunk over LeBron?

Because Ja wants to dunk on everyone

Yep - had easy pass for a bucket but trying to act like a kid who thinks he’s Superman and jumping off garage roof.

He did make great pass later on break behind his back but his play style mimics his off court antics — 100% FRENETIC which I find unappealing right now watching him play.

I do miss the PG's and players who would rather pass the ball if his teammate has just as good or better chance to score. JKidd, Nash, Magic. Even guys like Larry Bird would rather pass to a teammate and make it a thing.

Lebron been to finals 10x. Its not Jordan perfect 6-6 but speaks to his career.
Im in the camp that Jordan is a Goat. So is Bill Russell. Rings matter. 11 in 13 years. He was captain of 1956 gold metal olympic team, won two chips in college. Jordan one in college that had like 4 future NBA players on it. James Worthy is HOF. Sam perkins and Kenny Smith. Jordan was not quite Jordan in college.

Lebron likey has the better career given longevity, statistics, and playoff wins. He falls short on the chips and is a different player. Not saying he is “better” than Jordan. Like saying Russell is better than Jordan. They are different.

If I had to construct a sentance: j Jordan is the best, but Lebron had a better career and Russell is the best champion.

I find Ja so unlikable I'm actually good if the Fakers beat the Grizz.

The difference IQ made guarding Garland was obvious, but Randle showing up in this stat makes you have to question it's accuracy.

I know, right? The Bill Simmons Boston Bias clearly leaking over into the editorial side. The Source album rankings had more objectivity.

Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right. - The Tick
