NBA Game Action: 2/22/2014

I can't believe the Knicks are actually going to miss the playoffs. They are in 11th place in the East, have 6 more losses than the 8th seed Hawks and 15 of their final 26 games are on the road.

All this time I just assumed they would slip in at #7 or #8, but it's close to being over now with a 1/3 of the season left. How could this happen in the Eastern Conference? They need a miraculous turnaround.

I still don't see Melo leaving and turning down $130MM for a lot less, but if he is serious about wanting to win a championship...

 

Bucks giving the Pacers all they can handle.

 

Congrats Klove, 37/11/10. First career triple dubs, only played 32 minutes!

 

Jermaine O'Neal with 21 pts (8-13 FG) and 13 rebs so far against the Nets. Bogut going down has been a blessing in disguise so far, ugh.

 

(10-13 FG)*

 

I don't understand how the Warriors get so lucky. They keep getting extremely clutch lucky bank shots lol.

 

We'll see. Jermaine reminds me of how Mutombo was for Houston. Very good in limited minutes but tends to get injured if you keep playing him 25+ minutes for an extended stretch.

 

That foul that O'Neal drew in the last minute was b/s. The Warriors commentator said the defender (Blatche I think) tried to pull the chair which is a foul but that crap happens to Dwight on every other possession and is never called.

 

"Pulling the chair" is definitely not a foul.
