Danilo Gallinari, our prized No. 6 pick,? is awful.
He runs the court like a square, has a loose handle and plays defense like someone with cystic fibrosis.
While watching Knicks? reenactment of The Trail of Tears last night in Golden State, Gallo?s prospective fate was sealed. Watch the video below but prepare to cringe.
Anthony Randolph ? [...]

Bill Simmons Isn't a Kobe Hater, But He's Wrong About a Few Things
Take a look at Bill Simmons’ latest column for ESPN the Magazine. Tired of people on the internets calling him a Kobe hater, Simmons provides evidence that he believes proves that he is definitely not a Kobe hater. I agree with most of the article, but I took offense with one portion of it. ...

This is Al Harrington?s 13th season in the NBA.
But it?s almost impossible to tell.
Al ? who cost the Knicks last night?s game against the Clippers ? still plays like some snot-nosed punk from South Orange.
Here?s the latest example:
The Knicks lost in OT, 128-124, dropping their seventh straight game.
The month of February has shown no love, [...]

Line of the Night: With Chris Duhon sitting because of a sprained ankle, mighty Nate Robinson (1.64) stepped up for the Knicks and filled in adequately I?d say: 33 points, 9 boards, 15 assists, and 5 steals in an overtime loss to the Clippers. There are only two negative things about Robinson?s performance: he was [...]

Ole!OK, we all know by now not to expect vice grip D from the New York Knicks or Golden State Warriors. But for anyone who tuned in, last night's game was ridiculous. They must have had a banner hanging on the way out of the respective locker rooms stating "Defense Beyond This Point is Strictly Prohibited."It's rare when telling a no-defense "story" that a 144-127 final actually...

Defense an Afterthought, Warriors Crush Knicks 144-127
If one thing can be learned when the New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors, you can rest assured that both teams will more often than not provide offense aplenty. Tuesday’s game between these two teams would be no different as the game would have - assuming you followed the ABA - the makings of [...]
LeBron Uses Powder, Ronny Uses Patchouli

In L.A., Ronny Turiaf was like UCLA film student Jim Morrison. He was on the verge of something, but not quite ready to break on through.
Once Ronny moved to The Bay, he turned into the Lizard King.
With the transformation came copious amounts of patchouli oil, which might explain this missed dunk against the Knicks.

I guess I’ve missed a mini-issue brewing in NYC regarding the Knicks. Last week the Knicks notoriously got slaughtered by Kobe Bryant and LeBron James in two of their three losses that work week. The Knicks did give the Cavs a run for their money, falling by just five points. For that [...]

Thunder, Blazers Pre-Thoughts
Revenge is a dish best served, OK, do we really need to go through the lyrical musings about revenge when it's the Oklahoma City Thunder?I won't waste your time rehashing what SJ said last week. The only thing that's changed since then is the Thunder won that game and Portland can't afford to go ...
Frustrated With Team's Defense, Del Negro Takes Matters Into Own Hands...Again
I propose a word called "Del Negro" to be used in basketball the same way that "Bush League" is used in baseball: To describe an amateur, unsportsmanlike play. Vinny did this once already against the Knicks earlier this year. Here he goes again with his patented "Scream Defense". Maybe if he ...
