i still think Jeffries has anxiety attacks when he touches the ball, but he's fine when he's not touching it :grin:
In the NBA, a "bad" team can beat a "good" team on any given night. The Knicks have been playing better lately. It's tough to win on the road, regardless of the competition.
This game was done until RA put in AB and JJ.. Lowry and the bench brought us all the way back but couldn't put us over the hump.. insert AB and JJ
Well I agree he's not a traditional C, but as you say it's how the NBA is. Most Cs today are either more like longer PFs are big stiffs like Darko. Not many good Cs today in the NBA other than Yao, Kaman, Lopez, Dwight, and Bogut. Gallo is a matchup problem for a lot of teams. It was good to play Jeffries though but I think it's better to play someone taller on him though and bigger as to not give him to opportunity to shoot over guys and bully them in the paint like he did earlier. Gallo not aggressive though, Knicks have a really good player in him. Seriously. We are locked into our spot pretty much. We will switch around with Memphis but other than that nope. The best non-playoff team in the East are the bulls with 37 losses. we have 32, NOH behind us have 38. It'll take a major losing streak to even move up one spot in the lottery. Plus we are talking about a difference in .1% in the lottery. Is it really worth all that losing to have a 0.7% over a 0.6%?
Good win, some excellent shots by Brooks. Btw Tracy didn't play that poorly. 15 points shooting over 50%, 7 rebounds, 5 asists and 2 blocks and 2 steals. Pretty good numbers. But the thing with him is his consistency. One minute you see him pumped up, calling for the ball and being agressive and than you just look at him and he is standing in the corner doing nothing and sometimes attempting bad shots. He can play well, he has shown that. Before the season he said he has never been as motivated. But he doesn't look like a motivated player. He looked at times, but that was it. Once again, good win. Go Rockets!
