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.

So This Is The Reason Al Harringon Has Played On Four Different Teams In The Past Six Years
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.

Day 108 of 170: The System Makes the Man
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 [...]

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 ...
