OT: 2012-2013 NBA Discussion Thread: Defense? What is defense?

[ImIdaho]

Someone needs to punch in Loozer's face.

Losing sucks, but would like to see the Bulls stay in the 5 seed. Keep the Heat, Brooklyn, and Chicago in the top part of the bracket.

Leave the Knicks with Indiana, Atlanta, and Boston.

I hate Nate Robinson. The guy is the epitome of what I hate about the NBA. Can't play defense. Inconsistent. Takes ridiculous. Showboats.

I hope Novak punches him in the face.

Go sleep in a twin size bed you clown.

 

[Trou Trou Train]

Nate just choked there. I like it.

Damn, Clyde drew that Kidd 3 shot up from the announcers table.

Would laugh if we get a wild JR 3 for the win here.

 

[LittleKev6D9]

Damn, Clyde drew that Kidd 3 shot up from the announcers table.

Clyde's the best. He's got the best lines and he actually can analyze a game. Take notes other MSG color guys (Micheletti, Chico, Butch)

 

[Trou Trou Train]

Melo has ice in his veins.

 

[ImIdaho]

I'll throw my cat if Nate scores.

EDIT: You live for now, Mr. Whiskers.

****!

 

[ecemleafs]

****. that would have been so sick.

 

[17futurecap]

Ohhhhhh, thought he had that. Fun game, 5 more minutes before bed, sure.

 

[BroadwayBlues]

He had a great look...

 

[Trou Trou Train]

Here we go. OT.

 

[LittleKev6D9]

Melo has ice in his veins.

Looks like the ice just reached the temperature of 32.5 degrees.

So close....

 

[ecemleafs]

when JR smith is on hes a beast.

 

[ecemleafs]

stats guy melo gets 5 more mins to score more points

 

[17futurecap]

Nothing left in the legs on all these jumpers, oh well.

 

[ecemleafs]

kidd should not have played as much as he did. he was terrible tonight. 0 points and abysmal on defense.

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Kidd and Novak vanish when they play the Bulls.

Chicago is a 1st round casualty. Nate will be playing golf sooner than his former team.



OT doesn't help with a short bench. They play tomorrow then Ind. Ind is the 3rd game in 4 nights.

So is there any news on Camby, Sheed, Martin and Chandler?

Bulls are just better coached, have a top 5 D in the league, and push the Knicks around. On to the playoffs we go chucking 3s and getting T's.

 

[Zil]

I know this is a bit OT, but are there any draft junkies in here? I'm looking for opinions on Anthony Bennett. His offensive game seems enticing, but I've read claims that he has a low basketball IQ and slow feet on defense, especially guarding small forwards. How do people think he'd look guarding NBA 4s?

I'm on my phone so I can't post the rolls eye emoticon, but I just want to point out that I wish I could post that smiley in response to this post.


Anyway, looks like the Knicks couldn't sign Singleton from China due to some issues. Instead we replace Kurt Thomas, who can't play basketball because of his foot, with Solomon Jones who can "technically" play basketball but really can't. He's pretty awful and I wouldve rather just left Kurt on the roster for ***** and giggles than sign a guy who's this subpar. That's a bummer.

knicks magic number now 1 for the 2 seed.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

knicks magic number now 1 for the 2 seed.

You're welcome.

 

[Kershaw]

You're welcome.

How do you think the Nets will fare vs. the Bulls?

Both teams scare me as a Knicks fan.

Bulls probably blew the 5 seed losing tonight, and in Miami Sunday.
