Chris Bosh and Ray Allen are out tonight for the Miami Heat.

Well, the Clippers have a better chance now. Still can't see them beating Wade and LeBron without CP3 and Griffin. Crazier things have happened.

Aren't they returning tonight, along with Billups?!

Yeah when the hell was Billups healthy? I never heard anything about him for months.

Better old PG to have..Billups or Kidd?

Don't like the starting lineup for the knicks especially on the road.
GodSaveTheKnicks @ 2/8/2013 8:26 PM
Lakers down 20. I feel bad for Nash. He should have left Phoenix years ago.
StarksEwing1 @ 2/8/2013 8:26 PM
these guys need to show effort on defense

Both are SGs. Its a toss up. Neither penetrate anymore and are spot up shooters. Equal defensively as well

Can we keep Rubio out the paint or is this going to be a repeat of the Wiz game defensively. Watching STAT on defense.

Memo to Guns create a new thread: bench Shump and start White.
OGkush121 @ 2/8/2013 8:29 PM
Melo doing the business early on, hopefully this is a sign of what's to come.
I missed Melo's 1st quarter scoring outbursts, although 9 points can't really compare with the one against the Lakers for instance, but still he's off to a good start.
Defense starting to show some cracks now though, let's not keep that trend going.

i think our age and lack of any speed really hurt on on the defensive end

Kinda had no choice today cos they have a small backcourt with Rubio and Luke. But would like to see White start

Chandler must be the worst defender to ever win DPOY.

I always thought of Felton as being tenacious on D.

Is the solution to sicc Shump on Rubio?

woah.

StarksEwing1 @ 2/8/2013 8:31 PM
melo is playing hard on defense like he did earlier in the year
OGkush121 @ 2/8/2013 8:31 PM
How many times has Melo swatted the ball away today already? great effort on D by him

woah.

Am I wrong? Watching him just stand there and not jump when a guy half his size gets a layup on him is maddening. Happens every game.

why the heck is Melo a better shot blocker than Tyson
