    13 hours til tip off between the Knicks and Celtics. Should be a great one. I love the Celtics but I love the Knicks more. Moving to NYC in a couple weeks. If they're still in it, I'll try to go see some games.

    Go Knicks!

    Klay Thompson in Denver on 4/20 for his first playoff game.

    This could get ugly.

    Knicks-Celtics is going to be a fun series to watch but I can't wait for GSW/Denver thats going to be a high energy fast paced playoff series instead of a slow half court offense like most other series will be.

    Felton is currently a +10 (highest +/- for either team) midway through the 2nd.

    Van Gundy was just bitching about traveling, but the thing that bothers me the most about the game these days is the way guys can just jump into other players and get fouls. It just happened again - Carmelo barreled into Garnett, Garnett was straight up and down, and Garnett blocked him clean up top, yet Anthony got sent to the line.

    That and were players can just slide under someone in the air and get the charge are the two things i hate the most.

    IMO this is the biggest problem in the NBA. But its clearly by design and Stern wants it that way. The flopping is a direct result of this because its a defenders only recourse.

    Dubs vs Nuggs & LAC vs Grizz are the 2 series to keep an eye on.

    We should've picked up Kenyon. We would've made the playoffs.

    I'm looking forward to Bucks/Heat and OKC/Rockets. Go Bucks! Go Rockets! Upset City!

    Is there a player on that NY team of whom you would say "he's a true Knick"? Seems to me that they're all retreads. Melo, KMart, JR Smith and Felton are all ex-Nuggets! Kidd is a Net or a Mav more than anything. Chandler has bounced around... They're like the Whitsitt Blazers, except even they had Sabonis. I guess the Knicks have Shumpert...

    What good team has the most players who've ONLY played for that franchise? Has to be OKC, I'd guess.

    Melo is becoming a true Knick.
