still think the smart money is on the thunder but there are 4 really, really good teams in the west, 2 really good teams, and a few dangerous ones. it's nuts that there might be a team with a .600 winning percentage that misses the playoffs

noah is the best

I think its lovely that the Lakers are so irrelevant that even hating them seems like a stupid waste of energy.

never, i am enjoying their misery. fuck the lakers forever, even in times of abject pitiable despair

last year was so awesome for Laker hatred

the last couple of years really

woo lordy the uniforms in this game, what in the world

knicks look like actual pajamas

also: average loss by 24 points for games before 3pm lolllll

knicks/bulls?! arrghgh

noah has been amazing today, dude is essentially playing point-center

Knicks must shoot more long 2s early in the shotclock than any other team.

point-Jo always the best

the amount of step back long twos that JR takes is truly staggering

i still don't understand how the knicks are this bad

last year was so awesome for Laker hatred

my lakers hatred transferred, with dwight howard, to the rockets. i've nurtured this hatred, and it's doing very well.

the lakers hatred could be back next year tho. bottomless well of hatred to draw from, so it's no problem.

i'll allow it

about twice a day recently i've been asking myself "has mike woodson been fired yet?" because it totally should have happened and i'm afraid that somehow it's already happened and i've missed it or worse yet forgotten about it.

lol

the ownership/management is shit so it's almost beside the point. Mike Woodson not being fired is evidence of the shittiness of it, but if they replace him with someone better it will be only by luck.

honestly i can't even blame Woodson that much, he was handed a pile of shit and asked to make a sandwich

MikeBrown still coaching is much more mind blowing to me.

also agree with nhex

knicks were near miraculous good last year brown had a good scheme for his unconventional roster then management decided they needed a more conventional roster to compete w miami and indy lol

yeah i don't think woodson is that bad at all but this is what happens to teams like this, their coaches get fired.

Too late. If they fire him now they risk tainting the new guy.

I watched the first five minutes of the knicks bulls game yest and it was clear to my untrained eyes the knicks players dgaf

woodson really is that bad guys

in other news...

@epcotcentre
Please be advised that the gentleman who signed hundreds of autographs for Epcot guests today was not Orlando Magic guard Jameer Nelson.

''The point I'm at now, coming to this team, whatever role Doc sees fit for me is the role that I would do,'' Granger said. ''I'm not one of those players that says, 'I have to do this, or I have to do that.' I just want to play, have fun, shoot some 3s, throw some lobs, go celebrate.''

yeah good luck

woodson is probably a below average NBA coach but they really did fuck him over by paying a first rounder for bargs, it completely boxed him into playing big all the time
