What can I say being a basketball fan last night was the best. And having nba league pass was even better.
I started off the night switching back and forth from the sea/orl match up and the tor/phi game with a lil bit of utah/nj (I just couldn’t get into that game for some reason)
Sea looks as if there on there way for a victory until turk caches the ball in the corner of the left baseline takes a step back and at the buzzer drains a deep 2 pointer to seal the victory with rashard lewis draped all over him.
I was like damn what a shot, and thinking sea just dropped back to back winnable games, those are the worst.
I flip back to the phi game to see how dalembeast is doing and damn when this kid wants to play and mo cheeks lets him play the kid is a monster. Well im thinking philly has this game when I see bosh drain a 3 like he was bird game over another buzzer beater.
Damn 2 buzzer beaters in one night, I must admit im getting real pumped up to watch my knicks at 9. but there are a few other games on at the moment im flipping all over the place and realize the suns/spurs are on espn. But then I realize boston is up against the bobcats and its pretty close so ill tune in. ryan gomes has a triple double? Whoa, well game is tied 6 seconds to go and the bobcats with the ball. Who will take the shot morrison? Will they give it to crash to go to the rim? No brevin "I don’t have a j" knight decides to put up an 18 footer straight away and ………..CLANK, overtime. Ok im not in the mood to watch this overtime so I switch back to the spurs/suns game.
Who is this oberto and why am I hearing his name non stop?
Ok back to the celtics game, I remember reading how pierce and doc were guarantying a big game out of west, well he is 2-9, im not impressed. Cant recall the time left but its under 24 sec bos has the ball. And im thinking pierce has this. Holds the ball penetrates in the lane it seems as if all 5 bobcats have dropped down in the paint with him pierce dishes it out nothing but net. West ends the night 3-10. I guess a game winner is better then a huge night. Just noticed pierce had a nice triple double as well ummmmm dose 12 TO count?
This is sick 3 buzzer beaters in one night im loving it, I know it cant get no better then this, and the fact the knicks are already down by ten in the first hasn’t even hit me yet.
Know I switch my attention to the suns spurs battle what a game, TD is hitting bank shot after bank shot the suns are doomed. Raja just drains a 3 with 7 seconds left and are down by 1. they foul duncan. And he misses 2 free throws wow, not clutch. Suns for the game, bell to the lane but he gets fouled by that oberto guy. Bell gets fouled and im thinking it’s a wrap, hits the first misses the second, lol. Overtime. No buzzer beater but the spurs win, another great game.
Oh well guess its time for me to watch my lowly knicks get embarrassed on the road. There hanging around if you call 12 points down hanging around.
Crawford is catching fire hitting shot after shot after shot.
Memo to denver: you guys are trying to win your first game act like it and play some d
Back to the game crawford is a very streaky player and when he is on he is on, damn it he just missed a 3 to tie the game, lol
Knicks and den tied 28 sec to go everybody and there mama know crawford is gonna take the shot, he is trying to brake the whole nuggets team and turns the ball over……..but crawford knocks down an outlet pass 1 second after turning it over to a wide open melo and drains a fall away 3 all in one subtle motion!!!!!!!!!!!
Crazy man knicks up 3 melo gets fouled on purpose before he can shoot the 3. he hits the first one and has to miss the second one on purpose. Melo puts up a perfect missed free throw jr smith comes flying out of nowhere on the lft baseline puts it up and the ball hits the back of the rim………………………
I know you told me not to visit your blog...but I have a habit of not doing what I'm told.
I didn't get to see any of the games last night, unfortunately. Would be nice to have NBA League Pass. Especially with my team(Jazz) starting out so well.
So what kind of season are those Knicks gonna have? Do you expect a lot more wheeling and dealing? If so, who do you think they should trade?
For me the greatest night to be an NBA fan is when the the last whistle blows in the NBA finals. I used to love NBA baskeball. I've probably been to close to 50 NBA games. I think my best NBA memory had to be watching White Chocolate vs. the Clip show at the L.A. Sports Arena. I liked the Kings better when they had the L Train, Mitch Richmond, Wayne Tisdale, and Antoine Carr and they were winning 23 games a season. At least the game on the court had a semblance of organization. I tried to watch the late game last night and after Billups threw a fit after getting called for double dribble I turned on the Cosby show.
The knicks ahhhh let me put it this way. If they win over 30 games this year I will call it a success. Im thinking 33-35.
The wheeling and dealing knicks are dead. As you can see with them buying out mo taylor and jalen rose's contract to begin the season. I think it’s a good start. The knicks have FINALLY begun the real rebuilding process, the way every other team in the association had to.
Sport-
I use to feel the same way about baseball so I know what your talking about. But the mets got this kid named reyes who got me interested again a couple years ago, slowly but surely baseball is gaining my interest.
Ah those good ole teams, mitch was a beast and j-dub was definitely entertaining. I miss the 90's knicks when a foul was a real foul not this soft stuff there calling today.
