Eastern Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread

Knicks should win both at home if stat and billups are back. So disappointed to not come away with one in Boston.

Man.

As much as he sickens me...I REALLY wanna know what D'Antoni has to say. I'm waiting for his "everything's alright" smirk he gives the media.

2 winnable games with a JV squad playing tonight...I really wanna know what spin he's going to put on this.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread

Smfh. Pathetic. We're one of the worst executing teams in the final minute and have been that way for the last couple years. SMH.

Jared Jeffries stop being a puss. Go up, good lord. Ugh.

Agreed. Jared Jeffries needed to go up and try and score, not pass. He was obviously extremely hesistant (as it's not his game, even when he scored the basket to put NY in the lead), but still..

The failure to foul is just mindblowing though.. wow.

Awesome performance by 'Melo though trying to will a team to victory.

disappointed, that's all I'm going say, thanks staying strong Mm and the rest of the Knicks. Hey Amare, Willis came back with a broken Hip, back spasms, COME ON!

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread

In Jeffries defense, the way he caught the ball he would have had to turn and try to put that shot up right over KG, whereas Walker (I think it was Walker) cut to the hoop wide wide wide open for an easy dunk. Just a great defensive play by KG right there.

The no foul thing with 4 seconds left is another story... The way they didn't chase him backcourt I thought it was somehow a back court violation like you get in 2k11 every once in awhile.

I think that's what caught Melo off-guard, hence why he didn't start chasing west until after a couple of dribbles.. A mental laspe no doubt..

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread

There is no way in hell Jeffries would have converted that shot - not a chance. He misses half of his wide open layups as is, I'm glad he tried to pass it.

Boston forced the ball out of Melo's hands and we had a buncha scrubs on the floor, can't be mad that anyone else on the floor at that time couldn't score against the best D in the league.

Doc did an outstanding job down the stretch tonight, he was the difference late vs Pringles.

Tough loss, gotta get Amare healthy and protect the Garden on Friday.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread

I was hoping we were going to be able to go one game without a "Oh wait, it's the Celtics" kind of comment about some kind of officiating call or however you want to categorize it.

Alas, it is OS.

Another great game in the series. KG came up big in the final twenty-seconds.

It's not the officiating. That's to the league who won't do anything.

Dude my wife had that once. I KNOW how debilitating that came be. To see him out there at all is a WOW to me. When she had them it looked like it literally took YEARS off her life in a matter of hours. You could see the "energy" just drained out of her. I had to do for her and she's like a workhorse. She get's sick or injured and she's still cooking for me , going to work and the other stuff. But that back spams stopped her COLD. Make no mistake about back spams man.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread

Yea, some of my friends are ripping Amare too. It's stupid. He clearly wasn't right. He got hurt in warmups, so he gave it a go. Figured Amare had proven enough to get the benefit of the doubt but I guess not.

[NYJetsfan]

He looked ineffective as it was in the first half. Clearly hurting.

Let your friends know they shouldn't speak on what they know nothing about. It's not like when you tweak your back some and it hurts. It's a whole different thing. Like I said she looked worse than an 80 year old woman trying to get around.

I'm surprised he was out there at all. These guys are top condition athletes of course but a human body is still a human body and can take but so much.
