You know him in real life?


A few of us that lived in the Boston area (I used to) caught Knick/Celtic games here and there. Myself, Bill, Dr. Sith Mirth, and JohnStarksTheDunk.

Slamvangundy always said he would come out but never did :lol:

That's actually pretty cool you guys were able to set that up. There are a few people here I would like to meet in person.

Indeed - most of us are much nicer offline.

Real life meetups seemed to happen a lot more in the late 2000's... perhaps because everyone universally hated the team.

Not going to get baited into arguments with tweedledee and tweedledumber about Lin anymore. In fact, I'm not sure why I haven't blocked you both yet- will do that now. Maybe I will post more here when I don't have to read your worthless posts.


Funny, you had no problem talking when Lin was in his 5-game-stretch "upward trajectory". The minute he became garbage again, you were gone. How about admitting you were wrong? How about admitting that Lin is not the player you claimed he was? Running and hiding is the easy way out.

I'm an economist, and I deal with people who see phantom patterns in the data every day. You're not the first or the last one to do that, but running away, rather than admitting you were wrong is pathetic. Reverting to personal attacks when you have nothing else to say is shameless.

I've said it a million times - I liked Lin when he was here. I still like Lin. I hate the fact that people make him out to be something that he is not. He's a 12/6 guy. No more, no less. Deal with it.

Same debate we had with Gallo, that people claimed he was a future "star".

Well they still suck. Just shows how stupid some of these analysts are. Anybody can see the Lakers D is horrid and gives up far too many wide open shots to win anything..


every single game if you look at the boxscore they'll have 1 quarter where they give up like 35 points. you just can't win like that.

When I look at the boxscore it reminds me of us the past 4 years. People want to blame Dwight and Kobe and they should to some extent but Pringles is the coach. He needs to put his players in a position to win and he doesn't.

He is abysmal.


the lakers are disgusting. they can come into the garden and look excellent. they really give it their best. but otherwise, they just can't be bothered to show up. laughing all the way to the bank. losers. dantoni is not much of a motivator, but can't a guy making a million bucks or more be expected to bust his ass on the court? at least most nights. i mean, sure, there's the occasional off game, but this display is pathetic.
I dunno.

Boston plays Atlanta tonight. I should root for Boston, but can't. Want to see them eliminated from the playoffs.

Atlanta better win, as long as we win our division we'll have home court in the first round.

No. Not since Lou Williamz went down, but I don't fear Boston either.

That's not totally true.

Home court is awarded by record.

Boston won the division last year and their first game was on the road.

And how is that any different than Lin (other than Lin having a lower average)?

Neither of these teams is a threat to the Knicks. Watching the Celtics on a 6 game losing streak is always fun. GO HAWKS!

The only time I don't cheer against Boston is when they are playing NJ.

Then I just cheer for the ground to open up and swallow them both
