the knicks have blown since the return of jarred jeffries. i don't think it's necessarily a complete coinkydink. he's an utter embarrassment on the offensive end. other teams don't have to guard him. so that completely kills the spacing, which is really important when you have amar'e and melo on the floor.

d'antoni's got the rest of the season to figure it out... otherwise if i'm jim dolan, and thank god i'm not, i go out and throw a shit load of money at jerry sloan or phil jackson.

Phil returning to New York, huh?

That would be pretty interesting and, now that I think about it, doesn't seem all that crazy.

Let me get this straight: you don't wish you inherited hundreds of millions of dollars, owned two professional teams and got to keep your job no matter how utterly disastrous you are at it?

GirlsAloudFan · 03-22-2011, 08:18 PM

Kinda sorta just kicked the living shit out of the Hawks in Atlanta there in that first half.

72 points. Damn.

It's beautiful. And on the heels of kicking the living shit of the (admittedly quite terrible and missing their best player) Kings.

I'd love to have jim dolan's shit, i'd hate to be jim dolan.

We'd have rings and rings and rings if I owned the knicks

Hey, what are standing room "seats" like? I've never gone that route and want to, as it's a cheap way to bring a British friend to a Bulls game. Should I be wary, though?

PhilsFan · 03-23-2011, 04:39 PM

Standing room seats at a baseball game mean you watch from anywhere on the concourse that you can stand and see the game. Obviously, though, the baseball park is much better for that than the basketball arena. I'm not sure how it would work there.

If you shout... · 03-23-2011, 04:42 PM

At the United Center, they just throw you up top. Only thing is, I'm not sure how I feel about getting there at least an hour early, to make sure that we can actually see. Anybody done this and lived to tell the tale?

CTU2fan · 03-23-2011, 07:08 PM

Not exactly. I did, however, procure press passes to a Rangers/Whalers game at MSG once, which basically amounted to SRO except they didn't sell SRO. So we moved around, snagging vacant seats when we saw them, until we got ratted on by nearby fans (we were cheering for Hartford, but not obnoxiously at all). I definitely think you'd want to get there early and stake out a good spot...

Hewson · 03-23-2011, 08:41 PM

Never done it for a basketball game, did it for Game 5 of the 2004 ALCS at Fenway. Got there when they opened the gates to nab a good spot (behind grandstand just inside of first base with a railing to lean on, had scoped it out when game 3 which was what I had tix for got rained out and they switched game 3 ticketholders to game 5), and of course the game went extra innings...one of the greatest games to attend, but roughly 7 straight hours on my feet.

lazarus · 03-27-2011, 10:21 PM

This thread sure gets awful quiet when the Knicks and Celtics aren't playing well.

PhilsFan · 03-27-2011, 10:35 PM

That better?

LuckyNumber7 · 03-27-2011, 10:38 PM

Your 3 least favorite NBA players all topped 30 points and 10 rebounds tonight.

Certainly has nothing to do with all of our focus placed on the final four...

Honestly I haven't watched one NBA game since selection Sunday. Well... scratch that, I did go to the nets/Celtics game that Monday. But since then I haven't seen a game. That the Knicks and Celtics have blown in that time is merely a coincidence.

And we all noticed you failed to comment on what a douchebag Andrew Bynum is.

As pointed out above, my focus has been on the NCAA's of late, and with good reason.

Comes with the package of the very good year he's having, I guess.
