Nice Point.
Im overwhelmed that the Lakers got the W and we got it playin team ball. Bynum is gonna be a star, i said this many pages back but because he doesnt get much PT you guys probably didnt know who he was. The dude is 18, 7ft 1 and still growing! Also check out his wingspan 7'6, he is gonna patrol the Laker paint for years to come. He is working daily with Kareem (you can bet thats where he got that move he used on Snaq) and is only gonna get better. This will turn out as great draft pick for the Lakers down the line, bank on it.
My lasting memory from tonights game is this image:
Increase the peace on MLK day!
it was good to see these 2 make up, well done to both for burying teh hatchet. bynums dunk was nice, they should give him more playing time... i'd kill for a 7ft1" guy on the raps. still growing too! damn....
the raps killed the knicks the other night, rose getting 31 points. now theres talk of him going to the knicks in a trade. who for though? i'll take channing frye, hes been a great player for the knicks. twas a good mlk day though.
You better position yourself as his (the 7'3 dude) agent Dan, while you still have time.
What i love about Bynums move was that it was right after Snaq had posterised him on the other end and thrown him to the ground like a rag doll. Most seasoned vets would be intimidated and crawl away and hide but Bynum picked himself up, sprinted down court, demanded the rock from Kobe no less and took it straight back at Snaq. Thats the sort of guts and heart i've been waiting for from Kwame and here's a high school teenager manning up to Snaq and not backing down. My highlight of the year so far as a Laker fan.
this year in the east, its all about the nets... they go on a 10 game winning streak before losing to the defending champs. and unlike last year, i think they can take miami - no problem... shaq is not playing well, i don remember who they were facing, but shaq attempted 11 free throws, and made only 1.

Yeah right. Like the Knicks will give up Frye for Rose. If something were to go down it would involve either Penny or A. Davis because of age and contracts.
Never underestimate the Isiah Thomas factor.
I wouldn't be surprised if he trades Larry Brown and Frye for Kenny Thomas. He's making Elgin Balor look like Jerry West in comparison.
who thinks vince should have made it over wade in the all star game... cause the all star game is all about razzle dazzle, the crossovers, the alleys, the dunks, thats what the fans come to see.... vince is arguabely having the best season of his career and is on the top 10 plays of the week every week, i know most of canada is not voting for him.... but do the people in the states think he shoulda made it?

Yep, he's one of greatest point guards of all time but since he has retired, he is like the human version of the plague. The Sports Guy put it best:
Right now, you have a roster that costs something like $120 million. You completely overhauled the Knicks' roster in 14 months, and now you're trying to overhaul it again. There's no rhyme or reason to anything you're doing. Your team doesn't have a first-round pick next summer, and in the summer of 2007 -- widely considered to be the deepest draft in 20-plus years -- the Bulls have the right to exchange first-round picks with you (most of your fans don't even know this). You also have to give another first-round pick to Phoenix before 2010. And you have at least eight or nine players on your roster who are completely, utterly, totally untradable, including someone with a possible heart defect and someone whose back is in such bad shape nobody would insure his contract. Your team also has one of the worst records in the league. And your fans are downright traumatized at this point, to the degree that you went into hiding until your recent winning streak. Now you're available to talk to the press again, of course.

😆 Yep, that just about sums it up.

😆 Blazers earlier in the season were trying to get Frye and either Penny or Davis (contract reasons) for Miles and Patterson. I wish that trade went down.
Tanjot - The all-star game is about the fans. Guess who voted Wade in over Carter? The fans. Also, do you honestly think Wade doesn't have razzle dazzle?

Look at this crazy crossover by Wade. I've had it for a while, don't know why I didn't post it.
