gallo got a mention in the latest simmons column - as the most successful player to have been drafted by the lol knicks in the DOLTlan era iirc
― slothroprhymes, Saturday, 11 April 2015 19:45 (nine years ago) link
that can't be true tho, how is he more successful than David Lee? I guess he would have been without injuries and he's better now but.

Isiah had great drafts, the one thing he's great at.
there's an alternate reality where Isiah doesn't have sex scandals and doesn't do trades and he's still the Raptors GM.

that really sucks abt conley
― Clay, Saturday, 11 April 2015 20:24 (nine years ago) link
the Knicks blurb in the column is specifically talking about top 10 picks by the team, but this being simmons he turns it into a hypothetical by saying:
That's right, your answer to the question "Who is every Knicks fan's favorite draft pick of the 21st century?" is Danilo Gallinari.

He sounds so bummed! And/or bored...I got through about 15 min and realized I don't know why I'm listening to this guy
It also drives me crazy that he doesn't finish his own sentences half the time

I appreciate his (politely, Canadian-ly) burning hatred of Monty Williams though

Knicks vs Magic, 2nd quarter:
Knicks 8Magic 7
― Clay, Sunday, 12 April 2015 00:26 (nine years ago) link
lowest scoring quarter in NBA history!
― Clay, Sunday, 12 April 2015 00:27 (nine years ago) link
xxxp he's rich enough to be a career NBA gambler I imagine that comes with a certain amount of disaffection and the potential for sociopathy
could just be my class warfare talking tho

the first 15 minutes or so were kind of bad but then they start talking about interesting stuff and it gets better

this frizz-clips game is HUGE in terms of seeding

no Conley, don't think Allen is playing, not feeling the frizzlies' chances

this is a...physical game being played between the grizz and clips

chris paul -> austin rivers has to be one of the biggest drop-offs in NBA rotation history
― k3vin k., Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:03 (nine years ago) link
haha yup
― #wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:03 (nine years ago) link
rivers just picked up his dribble at the foul line with >5 seconds left on the shot clock, panicked, and threw the ball to jamal crawford, standing 35 feet from the basket who then had to throw up a prayer

wow that charge on blake was one of the worst calls i've ever seen

I'm about 30 minutes behind this koufus blake duel is kinda fun

lol yeah and it continues...

if my understanding of the standings/remaining schedules are correct, the clippers have the inside track to the 2 seed now and control their own destiny
― k3vin k., Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:32 (nine years ago) link
The west conference standings and playoff seedings are just bouncing around like popcorn rn. Except the Blazers are a guaranteed 4 seed w/o home court to go with it.
― Giant Purple Wakerobin (Aimless), Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:45 (nine years ago) link
idgi what the point of guaranteeing conference winners the fourth seed is if ur not gonna give them home court, i mean ur really guaranteeing them the fifth seed
― lag∞n, Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:46 (nine years ago) link
get rid of divisions
― Clay, Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:50 (nine years ago) link
The guaranteed 4th seed is like a dollop of make-up over a big zit. It hides, but everyone knows what it is hiding.
― Giant Purple Wakerobin (Aimless), Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:52 (nine years ago) link
speaking of get rid of divisions, looks like the clips are still in 3rd because the first tiebreaker is a division winner gets the nod. the clips will almost definitely finish with a better record than the grizz, but if the clips and spurs end up tied (as they are now), the spurs would get the 2 seed
― k3vin k., Sunday, 12 April 2015 04:52 (nine years ago) link
grix clips spurs rockets all w/in half a game lol

lol cavs resting every starter except mozgov this afternoon, SUP STARTING POINT GUARD MATTHEW DELLAVEDOVA (I would assume)
― slothroprhymes, Sunday, 12 April 2015 18:13 (nine years ago) link
Cavs resting Lebron Kyrie love jr and David blatt* today
Everything's coming up brad Stevens!
*possibly not true
― juice college (agent hibachi), Sunday, 12 April 2015 18:14 (nine years ago) link
Lol xp I was gonna go for the dellavedova triple double joke instead
it could happen & they'll probably still lose
pacers face OKC & nets face bucks and heat's loss last night all but mathematically eliminates them so yea brother brad and his ragtag band are m/l a lock
― slothroprhymes, Sunday, 12 April 2015 18:19 (nine years ago) link
aww perk got a nice clap
― slothroprhymes, Sunday, 12 April 2015 19:29 (nine years ago) link
celtics win (currently lead by 25ish) + pacers loss = playoff berth clinched, miami eliminated, nets lose any tiebreaker
― slothroprhymes, Sunday, 12 April 2015 20:39 (nine years ago) link
Russ scored 54, thunder lost to pacers
rip thunder

Russ taking 43 shots against the Pacers tonight is a bigger deal than the return of game of thrones

there were just a ton of points scored/wild swings/russ losing his cool xp

Russ also got his 16th technical tonight and if it isn't rescinded he'll be suspended for one of okc's two remaining must-win games
― Clay, Monday, 13 April 2015 04:53 (nine years ago) link
