New York Knicks at Los Angeles Lakers, Nov 24, 2009 7:30 PM PST
Here's something I don't admit to many people: I was once a New York Knicks ticket subscriber.
For two whole seasons.
It was the final year of the still-incomprehensible Isiah era and year one of D'Antoni, I was living in New York City, and I was desperate for basketball. Any basketball. I'm not proud of what I did, nor how much of my money helped bankroll some of the worst NBA teams in recent memory.
The experience did, though, leave me with enormous sympathy for the Knicks faithful, who've had to endure an awful, horrible product for nearly a decade now. To put it in perspective: imagine the 2004-05 Lakers season. Now subtract Kobe. Now stretch it out for eight years. And counting.
So as another epic asskicking of the Knicks unfolds tonight, pour one out for New York fans. They've had it rough for a while.
Here's your open thread.

Next summer might be the one of the most important moments in the franchise's history.
They might have this one time to get it right. Gallinari, Douglas, Hill, and possibly Chandler are good young players. It would’ve been nice to add Brandon Jennings. Oof!
If you want to torture a Knicks fan,
just mention Brandon Jennings.
Or Jordan Hill.

That is brutal.
I think smashing the Suns made me realize how far Kobe and the Lakers have come from five years ago, when the Suns had the world at their feet.

Also, the Knicks home attendance has been down this year. Fans are beginning to
keep their money in their pockets. I think passing on Iverson was a mistake. The franchise is in disarray and the players on the team inspire fans to attend games. Iverson would at least put butts in seats, coupled with the possibility of adding McGrady. At least you would have talented disaster on the court.
Passing on Iverson is never a mistake.

Two words to prove my point: Stephon Marbury.

Because I was a ticket subscriber
the Knicks once sent me a Stephon Marbury bumper sticker. It’s still on my fridge.

It couldn't make them any worse
or could it? (cue the dramatic music)
"I don't want to be the next Michael Jordan. I only want to be Kobe Bryant,"
-Kobe Bryant
I disagree. I know A.I. has been a-hole the last year and some change, but I think he would
fit in well with the system. He would be starting, which is what he has been wanting to do. Plus, it gives the Knicks a creative scorer, star attraction which could equal a boost in attendance. I would’ve done it.
as long as Iverson started
he wouldn’t not have been a distraction. He never complained anywhere as long as he started. That has always been his gripe. Like a Supervisor being demoted and having his office taken away and placed in a cubicle with the minions….his/her ego can’t handle it.

Gallinari has a beautiful stroke
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
I notice the Knicks faithful are no longer booing him......

Can't really blame them
The ways we hurt them is endless.

Their Center is David Lee, who is actually an out-of-position PF...

Drew is a really proficient offensive player. Maybe the best Center going...
"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal
He's not the best power player at the rim, or the best rebounder, or the best defender — but for Kareem-ish offense, that's the guy.
"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal
Knicks are just hot from 3 right now
Were contesting their shots so I doubt they’ll stay this hot IF we keep contesting them
OKC still up by 14, early 4th Q in Utah. Warriors up by 3 late 4th Q in Dallas.
"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal

With the exception of Yao and Pau
Arguably the best offensive center in the league.

considering that Yao is out for the season...
does that mean we have monopoly for the best offensive centers in the league?

To quibble about Drew’s offensive game is his unwillingness to pass out of the post.
I’ll take that over a host of other problems.

That would be awesome, but I wouldn't bet 30 cents on the Jazz being able to finish this year...
I’ve seen 3 home losses already, not one of them a really CLOSE home loss. And they really suck on the road. They are going to have HUGE pressure on them to ditch Boozer at the trade deadline, too — and he’s a big part of their offense.
They have problems.

Wow! The refs totally missed that call, and he was right there to make that call. Just.

One of the regrets I have from this off-season is that we couldn’t keep him in the draft.

PGs on this team are basically glorified two guards anyway
But I agree on his defense; he simply gives 110% every single second, which is a huge positive.

"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal
But not as much as West going East
I’ll let nomuskles from FB&G defend this one:
Traveling west is NOT more difficult for the NBA teams. You gain hours traveling west, which means more hours to sleep before shootaround or the game (early Sunday games). A team traveling west might arrive late at night and then have to play the 12:30PT/3:30ET game. Their bodies feel like it’s 3:30pm. There is plenty of time for them to rest after flying in. Conversely, if the Lakers travel to the Eastern time zone and play the 12:30ET game, they are playing at 9:30 am according to their bodies. Have you ever tried to play at 9:30 in the morning? Not an easy task, especially after traveling and sleeping in a hotel.

The bench doesn’t get the ball to Bynum when he’s in good position. Instead they get it to him in places where he has a difficult time making shots. They don’t let Lamar handle the ball as much either. They don’t help themselves out and make it easier. Instead they just look very very sloppy.
Sasha can’t buy a shot.

lol i was about to say that
There are basic Fundamentals that are needed to move forward in this game. Always keep your guard up at all times to avoid being caught in a trap. Overcome the fouls that will be commited against you REBOUND AND PRESS ON. ADJUST to the LimeLight: ALL-STAR PLAYERS ARE ALWAYS THE CENTER OF ATTENTION. Know what your role is and play your position. Find a game plan and execute it. REMEMBER YOU ONLY GET OUT OF THE GAME WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT.

Lakers 2009 Road to Redemption: TREVOR, DEREK, LAMAR, PAU & KOBE.
Play the game of which Lakers reminds you of: TA - TI, Shannon Brown - Chris Brown, Pau Gasol - Jesus, Machine - Luis Scola/Russell Brand, PJ with mustache and beard - Colonel Sanders.

Well, that was a pretty boring, methodical dispatching of a shitty opponent — complete with yet another Bench Fail...
