[Headache in a Suitcase]

The Knicks can score all the points they want... they're not winning shit until they start rebounding the ball.

They rebound like they did tonight this weekend Miami and orlando will slaughter them. And it starts with Amar'e

That was embarrassing.

I still love Chauncey, though.

Indeed. It ain't him. It's Amar'e, who apparently is allergic to boxing out.

4 straight 30/15 or more games from Dwight? I'll take it.

[If you shout...]

For GAF, I guess.

DEERFIELD - A multitude of shoppers and employees at the Deerfield Jewel left early Friday after Chicago Bulls announcer Stacey King paraded through the store making loud proclamations about his favorite foods.
Word of the disturbance reached the Deerfield Police Department shortly after 11:00 a.m.

The main observer of the shenanigans was deli counter employee Grace Fellows, who left her employer 15 minutes into the disturbance.
"First, he came through the fruit section," stated an emotional Fellows. "We saw him by the cantaloupes screaming 'you're too little!' He'd keep screaming this until he found a fruit that he wanted to buy...then he'd scream 'that's what I'm talkin' about!'

At that moment, eyewitnesses stated that ten shoppers in the fruit section ran from the scene and into a nearby parking lot.
When King moved into the deli section, Fellows became frightened.
"He demanded that I make a party platter; starting with these turkey rolls. He was looking at the turkey and demanding that I 'Roll it! Go ahead and roll it!', then after I made a couple turkey rolls he says, 'Oh my goodness, stop it!' He kept stopping me and starting me...he was drawing arrows on the glass. Apparently he wanted the turkey rolls to go on specific areas of the platter. I started shaking...then he grabs these rolls from the bread section and demands that I 'put some butter on that roll'. I was so confused...that's when I ran out."
After the first 15 minutes, King was left in the store with only a couple of patrons and employees.
One of those employees was 18 year old Sam Horowitz of Skokie.
"He said he was looking for Honey Smacks. So, I pointed him over to the Honey Smacks section...well...from that point forward he started quizzing me on cereal, like, 'Frosted Mini-Wheats, five dollars? Oh my goodness...that box is too small.'"
Horowitz stated that he actually found King to be helpful and appreciative of his work.
"I gave him a rundown of each cereal we own from Raisin Bran to Honey Bunches of Oats. He called my manager and said, 'do you know who this kid is? Because he's your best employee...take the memo, hold it, seal it, open it later, because this. man. is. your. future.' I found that to be pretty nice. Problem was he's so used to grabbing everything because he's pretty tall, but we had a full box of General Mills variety packs at the top of the shelves. He starts yelling like a kid, 'I wanna go higher!'...I think that kind of freaked some people out."
King noticed as he walked to the check-out aisles that the patrons of the store seemed to have 'parted like the Red Sea'.
At that point, the remaining employees and patrons noticed King to be calm, cool, and collected...that was until Dorothy Holland, an 83 year old woman from Kenilworth held up the line.
"He was growing really impatient with the pace of Holland getting food out of her cart...he seemed to be in a hurry...he was screaming, "Get up old lady, or get out of the way'.
When Holland saw the tall King behind her, the elderly woman of 83 years collapsed to the floor.
"Is there a medic in the house? Woman just got herself swallowed by oranges, look at this!"
Holland had spilled fruit all over herself while unloading her cart. King helped the elder lady to her feet and proceeded to make sure all of her food was checked out correctly.
However, when it came time for King's items to be checked, the former Bulls player became irate.
"You're telling me five boxes of Honey Smacks is $25?! I have a coupon. Look at this. Freeze it. C'mon son, can't you read? Look at the coupon! That says 5 boxes for $18.99. Check your head! Why do you think I'm at a Jewel, to get robbed?"
After meeting with a supervisor, King got the price discounted. Even better, King's frugal shopping and coupon cutting saved him a total of $45.
"Look at this. Oh my goodness, stop it. You see this? This is what smart shopping looks like. Woo!"
After leaving the Jewel, King was confronted by several policeman in the parking lot and given a citation for public disturbance.
King was not available for comment.

Yes! I saw that yesterday. Pretty good stuff.

Stacey is a riot. Love him. My friends and I spend a good amount of each game making jokes about something Stacey said, or anticipating his next big goofy outburst.

I've maybe posted this before, but it can't hurt to do it again. It seems a bit hastily thrown together, and it's not at all comprehensive. Some of his trademark calls aren't on here. But there's still a ton of great stuff on this:

That thing can do wonders for your prank phone calls, fyi. Very useful.

[Imperor]

Hey, jerky. I wanna buy a house, Dad. It's gotta be big.

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Knicks? Heat? Nationally televised game? And Jeff van gundy will be there? Is it 1999?

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Did I just see the Knicks play defense?

[PhilsFan]

Stoudamire's block of LeBron was a beautiful thing to watch.

[Got Philk?]

I'm rooting for the Knicks...I feel strange!


Does it sound like there are just as many Knick fans in Miami as there are Heat fans?

[gump]

Could anyone dream of a more perfect ending?

Take that, LeDouche.

[Headache in a Suitcase]

That was beautiful

[LuckyNumber7]

Fuckin LeBron. I don't know why the ball was in his hands for a 3 pointer. Good lord...

[gump]

Also, Chauncey Fucking Billups. The guy is clutch.

Lebron getting booed at the free throw line and being seranaded by a chant of "new york knicks" as he walks off the court... in his own building?

I may cry.

Now that defensive performance was a complete 180 from friday night. I haven't been that pumped after a basketball game that I wasn't actually involved in in at least a decade.

Would be s bit more confident if orlando wasn't waiting around the bend, but eh, i'll take it for now
