I thought it would be good to have this thread for all games the Knicks aren't playing in. I can't believe Orlando beat Indiana. It's silly that OKC gave out blue shirts that match the Mavs jerseys to all fans. It looks like the fans are all rooting for Dallas!
Man the Cavs really killed us. If we would have just showed up that game we would have taken out the pacers and at least had a playoff series win. I mean orlando without their best player beatbthe, God being a Mets and Knicks fan causes so much pain sometimes
Eastern conference playoffs look dreadful this year: no Howard and no Rose, screws their two teams and robs fans of some good match ups. Who's actually good now? Boston have Ray Allen out injured, Sixers shouldn't even be in the playoffs, Pacers are no where near as good as their record and the Hawks always go out in the second round. We have injuries to Shump, Lin, JJ and BD, and Tyson is ill.
The Heat have an easy run to the finals, looks like the west should have much more interesting playoff series.
It's a shame. The east had almost caught up to the west in terms of talent and entertainment.
Once again, no one is paying attention to the ageless Spurs. Would it be a huge shock if they won it this year?
On Sportscenter they said the Celtics considered trading Pierce for an expiring contract and lottery pick? Really?!?! If any of their big 3 should stay Celtics, he should. He's been a Celtic his whole career.
Bynum gets a triple double - 13 10 10 b-shots. Would love to have him on my team! He talent/sky is limitless.
Sessions really solidifying the PG spot which pisses me off!! I wanted the Knicks to get him so badly though I am not sure if it was doable - or, if they tried 
Love to see how well Corey Brewer is playing - interesting how Denver found a way to fit him in.
Jordan Hill played really well for the Lakers today and looks like he is really improving (under the right guidance)

Never understood why they cut him over Balkman or the many others. Even of he would not have played last year he could have been there for this year. That move made no sense. A player that can guard the 2 and make the occasional shot would be nice right now.

Thanks for the updates on these guys. I think mistakes were made with both of them. D'Antoni and Walsh are lucky the Knicks made the playoffs or there would be a million threads criticizing the McGrady trade and the Knicks sending a lottery pick to HOuston.
Can you imagine if Dwight Howard was traded to the Lakers for both Gasol/Bynum and he ends up with bad back prior to the playoff? L.A fans would hate him for good. Dwight Howard isn't even worth it anymore anywhere. He is just a big crybaby. Let's all just watch him throw a tantrum and whine his way to the bottom and disappear like Larry Johnson to some crazy injury.
Rondo ejected and may even be looking at a suspension for chest bumping referee.

That would have been an awful trade!
I would love to see SVG win this series without Howard.

NOT AT ALL.. and they added some quality younger who are not that old.. diaw, jackson, etc.... they are deep and good..

if that trade could have happened the magic would have been crazy not to do it... they could have kept bynum and flipped gasol for other talent and or picks.. win-win situation for the magic... Dwight is overrated, I have said this many times before.

Many have picked them to win. TP is playing MVP like B-Ball and POP is the best coach in the NBA.
Also, how can anyone hate the Spurs - All Class top to bottom.

Pierce struggled big time today....5-19 from the field.

Their initial big 3 (excluding rondo) are all old. I'm actually surprised they've played as well for as many years as they have.

And we know that conventional logic leads us to believe that they are in the post 25y/o decline 
Zach Randolph with the 2 handed dunk.
WOW!
respectively I'm rooting for any OLDER team in these NBA Playoffs! Men over boys
Cant stand the Heat, can stand any of them fun teams anymore like the Thunder.
Use to love watch OKC and wish Russell Westbrook was on Knicks, we've watched him in colleged
Now I find few of these good young teams stars are even more arrogant than Kobe can ever be!
Of course I'm rooting for Knicks upset, however we're realist but NY always are fighters!
Tough year with injuries but next season is Knickerbocker season !
However for the honest fun of it I'm rooting for the "Aged" or senior teams whomever is
left in these opening round playoffs, whether I disdain Lakers, or Celtics, Mavs is N/A.
Middle-finger to these upstarts or youth of the now NBA.
Hopefully I'm right OR close!
