I hope this third quarter isn't going to be in the spike lee documentary because you would think the triangle offense is all about turnovers

If you're booing at a preseason game you shouldn't go to a preseason game.

Alright I give the Knick's performance tonight a D but a B- for effort. Let's try to put the ball through the hoop and not to the other team's hands next time. And for homework try to make some 3s.

Talib Zanna owns. But he probably shouldn't be in the NBA and he definitely should not be playing center.

E: I also think he helped mentor Adams his one year at Pitt

He doesn't have any minute restrictions, but talk is he won't break 30 most nights. So I imagine in the 15ish points range.

Until the Lakers lose a lot and Scott feels like his job is in danger and lets Kobe play as much as Kobe wants to try and save his job ala D'Antoni/Brown.

Come on, Kobe can score way more than 15 points in 30 minutes, especially if he knows he can play super hard during those 30 minutes, and even more if he doesn't play defense.

I'm gonna predict 22-25 ppg

Lance is a good guy to have in practice. He is good enough to make other guys look bad in practice if they slack off. You don't want him seeing any actual game minutes.

He also rules for the time he bought NOLA Hornets fans fries the day after he missed a free throw that would have given the team 100 points (and thus free fries via local McDonald's promotion).

They look better than last year's regular season but worst than last year's preseason.

Yeah this offense is going to get the Lakers blown out a lot.

Seeing him do well, I kinda feel bad the Wolves traded Burke to the Jazz but Gorgui made it worth it (assuming Shabazz isn't that good).

I take back what I said about booing in preseason because Jason Kapono hitting one more three than he did during his career with the Lakers deserved him getting booed.

Offense looks way better with way less isos. They are actually hitting Barnes off of cuts with passes instead of telling him to post up and clearing a side.

Wolves are looking... very Wolvesy. Flip seems to only like it when his players shoot long twos. Bennet made two of them on consecutive possessions, then tried a three and was instantly benched.

edit: maybe it's for the best cause they haven't made a three yet
