Hey KnickSon, who's that in your avatar? She looks pretty sexy---why did you choose her?

Lea Remini from "the King of Queens" definite hotness who flew under the radar, plus her and her husband character on the show were Knick fans.

Why Shump at small and not Fields?

I think we have to play Baron and JR, we have a game tomorrow night. We can't get by with Bibby and TD as the only guards off our bench today.

Of course we can,D'Antoni is our coach.

He would rather commit a suicide than play more than 8 men (unless it's a blowout).

Because people are lazy. No matter what you call it, Fields (6'7 220) is the SF and Shumpert (6'5, 215) is the SG.

"Chuck and duck" really isn't that complicated.

Exactly, spot up behind the 3pt line, if you're open shoot.

Baron Davis and JR Smith are both active today.

Because standing behind the 3-pt line and chucking threes is a hard thing to do.
