i'm ok loosing to them....we can take comfort in our better record, more stable team and the fact that our future is about 100000x brighter than theirs. Dont worry to much, the Raps are the better team still.
Good game for us. Mike James at the end was taking some weird shots but with 37 points, I'm not complaining if we win. As for New York, something has to be done about Marbury, that was brutal defense (until 3 minutes left) and during the last 25 seconds when he had that open shot and passed it off to Crawford at the 3pt line who fumbled it then drew a charge on Moe Petterson.
Mike James for the most part was taking some good shots but he was sizzling the whole game dropping 3's and such. And he had that nasty cross on marbury.
Bad execution down the stretch. James really needs to give it up more late in games. But you can't knock him too much for his 37 points. That Nate Robinson foul on Andre Barrett looked like a blatant push on the back. Still, didn't do the Knicks any favors. Talk about karma. Very impressive that Bosh still gets 31 despite being second fiddle most of the game.
yea, that X-over was pure ownage. starbury got shook. i went nuts too. but i also went nuts when james was taking all those ugly shots down the stretch. especially when bosh was in that unstoppable zone in the 4th quarter. i liked the way our game looked better with james on the bench. oh, if only we had a point guard who could take it to the rack and shoot like james, but distributed the ball. ridnour comes to mind, or heinrich come to mind...but thats just wishfull thinking
Mike James supposedly said it would be an honor to play for the knicks, who are in the race for James this summer. Mike james for Ridnour would be such a good deal for us!
I want mike james to re-sign with the raps. He's one of my faviourate current raptor. However, if he wants more than 7 million, we should just sign-and trade him. A perfect trade would be: Mike James and our first round pick in this year's draft for: Luke Ridnour and Chris Wilcox.
It's hard to sign and trade with Mike James since he can walk away and sign with anyteam however if he wants to go to a winning team which has no capspace it is possible.. Yes landing Ridnour would be great..
