Who else is excited to watch the Harden free throw show?

Yeah, me neither...

He got called for an offensive foul the other night on a play in the final minute of a close game the rockets lost the other night. I couldn't believe it. It clearly was an offensive foul it just isn't usually called on him. That same night Hibbert fouled out. Hopefully the playing field becomes more even. I sometimes wonder what it would be like if Melo got a 1/3 of the calls Harden gets.

Another win would be sweet, but it's going to be tough- Harden's flopping combined with the way the refs call fouls even if you breathe on him, has really turned me against him (same with Griffin, CP3, Lebron, Wade and Durant- these are all great players, they don't need to cheat and the NBA doesn't need to give them an unfair advantage).

Hope Tyson is ready for the challenge of Dwight- Tyson hasn't played well since his return, so I hoopoe he gets back into the swing of things soon.

Hopefully Lin doesn't burn us.

Beware of Parsons!

We definitely would have seen less of those frustration/meltdown games. As for this season, I think the Rockets game is the only one that would have been different since Melo would have been shooting free throws after hardens foul.

This will be a test especially for Melo. I wonder how his ankle will react after 39 minutes. Also, Chandler needs to step up.

The big question is the starting lineup. Will Woody go small or start Bargs and Chandler? Put Chandler on Jones or does he get Howard. What if Bargs can play Howard straight up again and Chandler guard Jones. Then on O Bargs post up Jones. In theory it works but Bargs has not been playing well at all overall. Yes, Nix I know...

Forgot about how well Bargs played against Howard.

You would get to read post after post about how Melo is an overrated flopping idiot.

Just because I'm superstitious when it comes to my sports...Good luck charm for the game, BRIGGS' pick from the Alba Tournament:

Eventhough Dwight is playing like the best center in the league again, the Knicks have two guys that have defended him well in the past in Tyson and Bargs. More worried about the penetration of their wing players. Hopefully Shump starts out on Harden and Toure gets some decent minutes in this game.

I really not sure if I want Shump on Harden early because he might get into foul trouble.

Theoretically, I think this is a game Amar'e should go off. There is not a pf that can guard Amar'e in the post. He just needs to catch the passes to him and not fumble it away in the post.

Same people out for Knicks, Artest, Felton, Prigioni. All other hands on board for NY. Beverly, Asik, Smith out for Rockets I believe. It's the Knicks vs.the Rockets and the Refs (Harden gets more of the benefit of the doubt than Lebron does,
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

this game should just be a forfeit. no chance of winning. none.

rest your ankle melo. in fact, melo should just take the rest of this year and next year off. rest for 2015. as if he won't be soooooooo over the hill by then anyway.

Gotta go with that Murry-Shump back court at some point. Maybe we can pressure Lin into some turnovers.

Try to start Bargs on Dwight and hope he can do what he did earlier in the season.

Don't let Parsons go off.

Anything less than 27 from Shump will be a disappointment.
