Game Thread GAME# 71: KNICKS @ BLAZERS - MARCH 23, 2017 - THURSDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), KGW

[Dougnsalem]

@swish3 is Meyers Leonard

Lol. You could be right there....

 

[Mediocre Man]

So Meyers is a member of the site? He is the only one who voted no.....

Now I know one of the people that report my posts

 

[illmatic99]

Denver's offense is absolutely beautiful. So much passing. Their defense is just as pathetic, however.

CLE can't stop anybody right now. I had this as a loss for DEN, but they keep coming up big.

We need to put the hammer down tonight.

 

[THE HCP]

Now I know one of the people that report my posts

You rang FAMS?

 

[Mediocre Man]

You rang FAMS?

I knew it!!!!

Wait, I used an exclamation point. I must be happy. Only thing it could mean

I ignored you earlier, because I truly felt sorry for you. I'm putting this comment in the same category as your joke ignorance.... Sad.

 

[BrunoSOC]

Rose suffered a sore right foot in Wednesday's loss to the Jazz, but X-rays came back negative, Frank Isola of the New York Daily News reports.

Wouldn't this make you more sad .... or is it sadder, for me?

I like someone who only responds to the truly sad

Meyers reports you? I would if I was him too. You are pretty mean to him after all...

 

[Mediocre Man]

Meyers reports you? I would if I was him too. You are pretty mean to him after all...

My thought going in to each Meyers post is to upset him here, as much as he upsets me when he plays.

I think I'm being kind, honestly

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Quick, trade Pat for Ron Baker!!!

 

[Paulus]

We must win this one , I know I m catching up , but ffs , beat SA, beat Atlanta, Beat Heat (witch was on best run in league, 28-5 ,if m not wrong) all away games , and we get vlow out by fteeking Pelicans , and beat by Bucks at home. I m not expert in NBA basketball . I watch a lot European Basketball before , you know ,Champions against Champions of all Country , When Kukoc , Radja was in Jugoplastika -. KK Partizan , Divac , Paspalj, Obradovic, Dzordzevic- KK Aris, Galis-Ioannidis-Giannakis Yanakis-,KK Zalgiris, Sabonis, Stomberas, Dzakauskas... Man that was Basketball , any team could come and destroy other in year two.
Now is like in football , sorry soccer. Champions League and there is like 6 ro 8 Champions , you have 5 Country s , and scraps for others . who produce players for this rich ones , playing exery year same teams. NBA , I kinda stop watch with Jordan. So Portland is insane , we need to win at list games because Denver will not give up

Quick, trade Pat for Ron Baker!!!

Dude looks like he stepped out of the fifties or sixties with that hair

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Dude looks like he stepped out of the fifties or sixties with that hair

But, he's a baller, and he plays really hard.

 

[Chris Craig]

Rose suffered a sore right foot in Wednesday's loss to the Jazz, but X-rays came back negative, Frank Isola of the New York Daily News reports.

So he's going to drop fifty on us tonight

 

[Chris Craig]

But, he's a baller, and he plays really hard.

I was wondering. Hadn't heard much on him. What do his stats look like?

 

[blue9]

LOTTERY STANDINGS

Boston, Utah, and Atlanta are SCREWING us right now!

 

[PDXFonz]

I watched the 3rd and 4th of the knicks game last night. I was like "who is this Luke Babbitt looking mother...". When they said his name I remembered watching him play for Wichita St. Dude hustles hard, he translated that college style hustle defense over to the league, kind of like TJ McConnell. He should see a tough challenge tonight with Dame/CJ/ET.

I think we will kill the Knicks tonight. Teams not gonna be happy about dropping their first home game after that road trip. Knicks aren't playing for anything right now and look disinterested on the court. Also on the second night of a back to back. If we come out shooting like we have in the last few games this one will be over like the Atlanta game, only worse.

Good chance to see Layman tonight

Not sure, but I watched a Knicks game a while back, and he looked good.

For what a summer league game?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

For what a summer league game?

Not that I can find. I think Orion is smoking something.

Seriously? I just posted a video of him dunking in a game for the blazers.

You posted a video of the Chalupacabra dunking, he plays for the heat now. Ron Baker just looks a lot like Luke Babbitt, don't let it confuse you again during tonight's game.

Ron Baker and Luke Babbitt aren't the same person dude.

Ron Baker (Plays for the Knicks, never played for the Blazers)

Luke Babbitt (Played for the Blazers, fed 24,000 people Taco Bell on one iconic night)
