    Last meeting the Knicks won at the buzzer but I think this time Utah should win at home. Memo and D-Will should come out with vengence today to show the whole league they were robbed big time. I'm expecting to see Ronnie Brewer today because the Knicks have quite a few athletes that we'll need Brewer to help with....

    Memo is sick guys, on his official site, they said he's been sick lately but will try to play if he can go. Did I say Ronnie Brewer would play? I meant HOffa [​IMG]

    Boozer is out tonight and so might Kirilenko.

    Knicks have won 5 straight against Utah.

    I'll take Knicks by 6.

    According to the Salt Lake Tribune both Memo and Andrei are 'probable'.

    It took a comeback, but the Jazz managed to escape with an overtime win 104 - 102. They shot poorly from the line, 15 - 27, but any win over the Knicks is a good one for Utah. With the win, the Jazz are tied for third with the Spurs.

    The Money man with the flu drops 13 in the 4th to help comeback and scored 9 of our last 11 to get the game into OT, with the flu people! Can you say snubbed? [​IMG]

    Not even an extreme dose of the sh*ts that prevented him from eating could stop Memo the ironman Okur. He did more than just play as well, he made the basket that ended up sending the game into overtime, as well as scoring 9 points in the final four minutes of regulation. There's no doubt in my mind he deserved to be an all star.

    If it was Kobe Bryant or Lebron or some other well known player it would be all over NBA.com right now...... too bad I don't think anyone even noticed.

    Stomach flu can't stop more of Okur's heroics

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">It was pretty scary there for awhile, Mehmet Okur said. There were a couple of moments where he feared that nothing could be done to prevent an ugly situation. The dread was overwhelming. He was going to lose it.
    No, not the game. This is Money Memo we're talking about.
    Of course he made certain the Jazz pulled out their fourth straight win, a 104-102 overtime decision over the Knicks. Even better, however, is that he powered that victory while avoiding giving the sellout EnergySolutions Arena crowd a gross spectacle they'd have a hard time forgetting.
    "I thought I was going to throw up in the middle of the court at one point," said Okur, who actually did lose the battle against his lingering stomach flu at halftime. "I was on the free-throw line. . . . I felt dizzy. I was so glad it didn't happen." </div>
