not sure if this is what you were referring to but if not, it's still worth quoting

He's very good at disguising which way he wants to go, and his big men are whip-smart about disguising until the very last second whether they are going to screen to Conley's right or left. Other big guys are good at this — Duncan comes to mind — but it's especially effective with Conley because he's ambidextrous and thus capable of driving just as powerfully in either direction. Hollins says he has no idea to this day whether Conley is left- or right-handed.

there have been a lot of fouls on the knicks

Dan Amira ‏@DanAmira 3m
Basically no Knick D for 90 feet of the court. Once you get within 4 feet of the rim though, hooo boy, watch out. Ur gonna get fouled.

heh

tip 4 pacers do not attempt a pass to hibbert in traffic he will not catch it

Sam Young runs like he's looking for a lost child.

The #1 best fact about Lance Stephenson is that he has a brother named Lantz Stephenson

This cobbled together halftime show is even worse than the usual magic-Simmons trainwreck

Do we think that wade is gettin that Kobe right now y/n?

Holy crap Kidd still hasn't scored, how long is it now?

Gtfo googling says lantz Stephenson is a real thing, no

Ugh Melo in rhythm is scary.

Hahahahahahaha there are youtubes of Lil Lantz playing bball / dunking on teammates.

...

ayo paul george u wanna be a superstar the next 12 minutes are right there for u

That block from Hibbert! Gorgeous.

hahahaha Knicks picked the wrong time to not foul there.

Heat/Pacers yall, should be fun.

the knicks totally won the melo trade tho, cuz they beat the celtics

Glad to see the Knicks go. Bye bye!

:-(

i was kinda rooting for the knicks so that wade could have more time to rest his knee

Same rest period either way. Game one won't be until Wednesday.

hope wade does get that kobe by which i mean the 2013 vintage
i am not above wishing injuries on ppl

oh that's fine then. thank god no more ugly basketball xp

is presti actually just dumb?

like first the harden trade now this

quite possibly

i mean at a high level he was smart about gathering assets but may have no clue what to do in terms of putting an nba team over the top

lol at the knicks forever

sadface

Haha that 4th quarter was exactly what you'd expect from this Knicks team.

Lance was incredible to watch, that up and under with the lefty scoop brought a tear to my eye.

Hoping for Pacers/Grizz final

Lance looking very pitbull that whole game; not sure if he made one shot that didn't include some heavy contact. It's been so awesome to watch his development vis-a-vis team basketball. He spent the whole season sublimated within an offensive framework for probably the first time in his life, playing as the 5th option more or less in that starting lineup, and handled it pretty zenlike. Heh, I really believe that his rebounding rates have gone up this year just because he wasn't really allowed to expend energy doing much else but defense / boards, so sometimes he can look like a kid just let out for recess, wilin out. Tonight, I can't remember any ill-advised drives. One major point that bears repeating from that big Lance profile from a few weeks ago is that, up through college, his game was built around being the strongest/most athletic guy in the gym. The only time that stuff really pops up anymore is when he starts out on the break and just fucking blasts off. <3 u Lance, and <3 u Larry for being the only reason the Pacers signed him. (Larry's Indy legacy looking pretty good right now: drafted Hibs/PG/Lance, signed West, traded for Hill)

The only thing better than Knicks losing tonight is looking at Knicks roster and knowing they're basically stuck with it through next season

Hahaha, speaking of Lance/Larry, happy to see Lance give him the GOD treatment:

Lance Stephenson ‏@StephensonLance 2h
I'm so blessed I want to thanks GOD,my family, my kids, my team, LARRY BIRD, pacers fans and everyone that believed in me. Thanks

Really happy a couple ilxors still have horses in the running this deep! (not including jordan in that b/c lol.) I kinda checked out on this round except for the early spurs vs warriors games, before the writing was on the wall. Will def be watching for the griz, but not sure how much Indy/Miami I can take. Anyways congrats to bise and compupost!

also since ILH is my bl°g, I'm thinking of moving from Portland to LA because why the f not. Any of you boys wanna tell me why that is a great and/or terrible idea, feel free to chime in. P.S. I am broke so the whole thing might be extremely hilarious.

do it man step to the big time

btw sick block by hibbert, crazy strength there

clay u have a car?

so excited for pacers heat http://i.imgur.com/4KNPWOk.jpg
