Barnes is a guy who's available for the minimum every single year, but yeah, I would take him as a backup 3.

didn't we have a chance this offseason but passed after we saw him workout?

Can't remember, but I can't see how James White is better. We should probably consider him next season, but I think he's good in LA.

Time to let Dirk go off in OT.

I love watching Dirk play.

Detroit's whupping at the hands of the T-Bone Wolves can mean a few things:

1. Calderon is not a difference maker or a team player
2. Greg Monroe is an emerging big man
3. Brandon Knight is still trying to get comfortable
4. Singler is awful

Frank will be gone....

Dirk makes every one better including Mike James.

Detroit is tanking. They need another top pick. Actually they need another 2 top picks.

The Clippers outside of CP3 are thoroughly mediocre. No one else can really create their own shot except Crawford.

And Crawful does it with his usual 30% efficiency. Out of all of Isiah's garbage, the Crawful signing is the move I still the most. That guy is pure garbage.

Every time I look at the Bulls board, they are talking about how the Knicks are going to collapse and they're going to get the 3rd seed. It's been going on for at least 6 months. The funny thing is that it still happening, even though we have a 5 game lead and there are only 13 games remaining. I'm pretty sure it will still go on even when there are 5 games left and we have a 6 game lead.

they need to be more worried about Roses crippled ass than our team.

Same with the Nets fan base. I don't post on opposing team forums because they'll pull the trigger just for being an opposing fan, but I do check on the pulse of their fan bases from time to time. And fan bases such as Chicago and Brooklyn (more like New Jersey) aren't accustomed to our Knicks recent/current success. We haven't won an Atlantic Division title and/or went into the postseason as a top two seed dating back to 1993-1994. 19 years and counting. These fan bases don't like it. Chalk it up with a grain of salt my dude and buckle up for this postseason run. Big time night come tomorrow.

Rose is more of a coward tan a cripple. He's simply scared of getting exposed. Rose has me respecting guys like Howard who came back early and weren't scared to get back on the court at less than 100%. Shump is still struggling, but at least he's doing it on the court.

“The two games that we played Miami so far, we matched up well against them,” Jennings said. “If you ask me, that’s who I would want to play first round, Miami.

“Just the fact over the years, a lot of the games have gone down to the wire with us and Miami. Right now we haven’t really played well against the Knicks. I just feel better if we play Miami first round, just the fact we have good games against them.

You ask Miami Heat fans and the one team they hate facing is the Bucks solely on the fact they lose to them so much. I want to but I can't clown on Jennings for saying that.

We talked about it a few pages ago. The Bucks may actually be a tough matchup for the Heat.

Lebron is going to be forced to guard either Monta Ellis or Brandon Jennings, whichever one of the two Dwyane Wade can't guard. If Ellis and Jennings take turns driving to the hoop, the Heat have no size outside of Chris Andersen to meet them at the hoop.

Bucks have Mike Dunleavy Jr, Ersan Ilyasova, and JJ Redick to drain threes. Luc Mbah a Moute is one of the better defenders at the SF spot to have guarding Lebron. Larry Sanders is arguably one of the top 3 defensive centers in the NBA right now.

I would LOVE nothing more than an 8th seed like the Bucks to upset the Heat.

I'm really looking forward to the Bulls-Heat matchup tonight, with the winning streak and all.

Houston vs. Indiana is also a very interesting matchup.

Bulls game won't even be competitive. Only Nate can score for them against the Heat.

I hope the Rockets find a way to beat the Pacers.

Who else is pulling for Dallas to overtake LAL?
