He looked possessed last night. Did you guys see him try to throw it
down on Ben Wallace right before he was taken out due to foul trouble?

I love to se him attacking the basket.

Speaking of possessed, KT is on scary mf'er. The Crazy Eyes were in full effect last night.

I always thought it was an act, but now I'm sure that he's genuinely nuts.

I like that though. He's the NBA version of Paul Oneil!

Allan looked good last night, I will give him that. But he has zero supporting cast so he is the only bright spot. Cr8zy eyes, what can I say - never liked him, never will. And how about Spoon..he looks like he has been to burger king one too many times in the last 2 months.

Maybe Spoon is slimmer in the same way Camby bulked up in the off-season... all was lost by the beginning of the regular season.

Yeah the offence was there but not through out the game.He cant close out a team,in other words FINISH! Ok u scored 31 but it dont mean shh if u cant win.Where in the world was the "D" 100mil-Allan.Bet if the roles were reversed and Spree was out there it would have been a simple win for the Knicks.The team would have been playing harder "D" and Spree having 40pts.Anyway would of should of the Knicks arent going to function with out a true vocal leader ship on the court.Uhh "SPREE".Well if they want to trade Spree,they gonna have to get Szerb cuz if Houston cant finish at least they'll have a another offence threat to keep the lead margin into double digits.

But his head is way too big, his body would collapse under the weight.

Thats tooo funny

Well I think Allan has a full game but NY has given him a defined role as a shooter. Spree is always taking unadvised shots and Allan Houston want to take too many. He needs to be more selish. 15 shots a game is a discrace. He needs to take 20-23 shots a game. I dont care if he shoots 40%, he need to take his shots.

you hit the nail right on target... i wish more ppl would realize that spree takes so many bad shots (ala iverson/carter) and that the offense flows better with houston as the primary scorer. and just for the record, last year sprewell had the worst shooting percentage of the starting lineup (and it was even worse than some reserves) and the most turnovers... spree also took the most 3 pointers on the team and his percentage made was significantly less than houston which exhibits poor decision making on his part. ppl might say "but he just brings it and he's the heart and soul of our team". i say that he should stick to what he does best at... defense and supplying tenacity and energy and his questionable "leadership".

I think that is one of the complaints that fans have about Houston is his lack of aggressiveness. He waits for the game to come to him well the great one don't wait for the game to come to them the go after it. Thats what sets them apart from the others. If Houston can increase his aggressiveness and get his teammates involved more he would have become a superstar. I think a great example would be someone like Stackhouse, who plays aggressive and is always in attack mode, gets his teamates involve with assists and at the sametime mixes it up to get rebounds. If houston plays like that he would be well worth the salary given to him.

Thats probably the difference between Vince Carter and Kobe Bryant. If you look at their skills, Vince has more skills. Kobe has that star mentality. I saw an interview of Carter on TNT, he didnt seem that confident in himself.

Not true Carter is missing two things Kobe has
1) Shaq ( wouldn't any player be confident to have him on their side)
2) Dribbling Skills (you have to have an handle to get to your sweet spots, Kobe, AI do it better than anyone in the game)

I think #1 (Shaquille) is enough to be an advantage over anyone.

Ask Penny if he would have even smelled the finals in '95 by himself...

...Ouch! Just thought about that Ewing finger roll...

Right now Houston is one of the best scorers in the league. He's got one of the nicest shots and maybe he's matured enough to finally put up big numbers and not pull disappearing acts at any given time during games. Hopefully by the time Sprewell is ready Houston has adapted to his role and won't turn back. I expect nothing less from Houston than 23-25 points per game and an all-star appearance. I think Sprewell's points will stay in the 18 point range, but he's a complete player and hopefully can do it even more on the defensive end. I still believe they can co-exist and things will be exciting when Dyess is ready next season.

i agree... but chaney must limit houston's limits as he's not been as energetic in the 4th as he loses his legs.

i love his new aggressiveness. now all he has to do is get a handle... i get sick watching him handle the ball. He is too nonchalant with his dribble. he bounces the ball so high that he is practically inviting people to take a poke at it.
