Lets be honest here, he only shot 6/14 (less than 50% from the field) and only put up 4 boards and 3 assists. In the eyes of a specific player on our Knicks, only 4 boards is awful. Anything less than 50% is an off night shooting and only 3 assists? Are you kidding me? But yea, pretty decent game for Gay tonight. I knew Memphis giving up this kid was a mistake in regards to Memphis...

the nba is crooked. just outright crooked. i only watch the raps b/c i cant stand the league.

denver was severely short handed. but as the raps built up a big lead early and was looking at a blowout, rudy gay gets 3 quick fouls. momentum changes and then picks up the 4th foul 2 minutes into the 3rd quarter. he had to sit the entire 3rd quarter.

I remember last week when Lin went 5/8 from 3. Lin supporters went nuts with no mention of his awful shooting percentage of .321 from beyond the arc. And now tonight he's already started off 0/1. When is Jeremy Lin going to learn to quit shooting the long ball? Because he's drop dead awful at it... All he's doing is hurting his entire team when tossing up desperation trey's. Stick to what you know Jeremy Lin; which is 'GO RIGHT' because we all know he struggles going anything other than... Right.

Jazz with a nice win

Houston impressive tonight vs GS

I see nothing has changed in regards to Mozgov. Still getting used and abused with no production what so ever. Another typical NBA bum. A career nothing thus far and that will never change.

If white can overcome his issues the Jeffries trade will haunt the Knicks for the next decade.

Man, you got some problems. I am probably the biggest Jeremy Lin fan in this board. After that game, nobody here was going nuts about his 5/8 from 3. Everybody, including me, was very sarcastic and poking fun that he actually made his 3s. Mentioning that Lin looked like he changed his shot a bit. You really gotta stop worrying about ex-Knicks. Their success does not mean this current Knick team is failing.

Also, Did you watch the game? Lin is a big reason they won last night. He had his attack game on. Lin and Harden basically put Curry, DLee and Bogut in foul trouble before halftime. They all had 3 fouls at halftime. In the 2nd half, Curry could not stop Lin and they had to switch Curry off him when he got his 4th and put Barnes on Lin. Lin controlled the pace or rather pushed the pace. Lin had 14 points and 10 assists. He would had more assists but in typical Asik fashion, he blew a bunch of layups. And Yes...he stopped taking 3's after his first 2 shot attempts did not go in. They did not give him any steal last night but he picked up a bunch of loose balls that were deflected by his teammates.

I watched and that was some sweet dishing from Jlin. Over and Over. Not like Felton shooting with 15secs or more left on the shotclock

Too bad Jeremy Lin could only shoot 3/11 last night. 0 steals and only 2 boards? 10 assists or not, 3/11, 0 steals and 2 boards is not good. Far from it.

good post, but you are talking to someone who is completely irrational when it comes to anything outside of knickland... one thing about the rockets, lin has to take the open three, that is what the rockets do.. if he doesn't take them, he will sit, because Douglas sure will..... It is how they run their offense.. but yes, last night he was a factor again.. he and harden can be hell to guard, especially when lin is aggressive, because harden is always attacking....

LOL, I also agree, asik messes up a lot of lin's assist... haha

Is there any way at all for both teams to lose in tonights Nyuggets/N*yets match up?

Dont know, but I'd take both side losing between Bulls and Celtics.

Great game tonight. Clipps vs Rockets. Harden might be out. Ouch.

AR was a complete steal for Denver, yes he still needs time to develop and mature, but you cannot take the youth, potential, talent, and athleticism away from him
2m per year at 3 year deal is very cost efficient and low risk high reward, virtually extending a late 1st round contract

I can see Denver making some more moves to free up some cap room/roster spots with either upgrading talent or acquiring asset's *picks or combination of young talent/high ceiling* like with Utah Favors and Millsap

They actually can offer a decent package for D12 if they want to gamble that they can keep him
Denver actually has many good players that they can afford to part with with their depth and it would allow Lakers to quickley retool with youth/athletic forwards/stretch 4 *gallo or chandler*, and break up Dwight's salary for 3-4 solid players
I know they wanted those type of players for Gasol, but that is not happening, and Denver's package could be the best package in the league that they can afford to let go off
It has been evident that Dwight and Gasol both are center's and neither is a PF, taking away their ability to compliment each other, and become liablities rather than All Star's
It would allow Laker's to play an uptempo basketball and run Dantoni's system with players familiar with it, and compliment Gasol when he returns at Center

Dwight has not been the same player this year, he physically looks like he got of steroids, and loss a lot of mass/weight/muscles
He basically was unable to work out/exercise for much of the injury, so I didn't expect him to be anything near he is once was this year, in fact, he started the season pretty good given the circumstances

a package of 2/3 of Wilson Chandler/Gallo/Iggy, and Faried or Miller
possibly taking back some of the bad contracts of MWP/Duhon

NYKmentality and TFK are completely opposites and similar is so many senses

They are constantly looking to prove other people's opinions wrong and their own opinions right
Unable to accept criticism/opinions/ of other's and the yin/yang of ex Knick's
TFK makes bashes Melo to the extreme and NYKmentality ignores the flaws of Melo and credit's him more than deserved

Harden *from OKC to Rockets* and Rudy Gay *from Memphis to Toronto* are great examples of how stats could be misleading
In the end, STAT's doesn't measure how each player is utilized in each system/team, and does not measure their talents

On people that like to use STAT's as a measure of the values of players, Rudy Gay and Harden proves why it can be flawed
Rockets acquired arguably the best COMBO G in the game today and one of the best penetrators/ability to finish with contact in the game/ and ability to break defenses down
Rudy Gay is one the most versatile/athletic/skilled SF's after Durant/Lebron, with the ability to play SG/PF *much like how Melo does*
He was a complete steal for Toronto and horrible trade for Memphis because they did not attain any real assets for a young/all star like player in Gay
While I understand that Memphis simplified their offense and improved their chemistry/defense, they simply did not acquire asset's for Rudy Gay's potential

ron, honestly I don't think you believe that, because really, you can't find any evidence of that.. I think that has been regurgitated so much that it just seems like the normal thing to say.. can you look at any of these threads and find where I bash him to the extreme? if feeling that he is not a top 10 player in the league bashing, then I guess I am guilty, as are many others..... but where is this extreme bashing you talk about?

twisted his ankle on david lee's foot.. i saw some footage of this royce white kid.. He looks intriguing.. If the rockets can get him straight, they may have a player on their hands..
