Celtics are in GREAT shape after the Nets trade.

Knicks would DIE to be the Celtics right now in terms of cap space and draft picks.

And ya got Humphries comin off the books!

Maybe my avatar is not the best. I will grant you that. However, it appears that you spend all day trolling a gambling site. I hope all of the time you spend here is worth it.

Yeah, they got rid of truth and big ticket just in time. Celts are in a building stage.  Ainge will do do whats best for them.  Who knows if they are going to build around Rondo or clean house but at least they have a game plan.  As for the Knicks, I have no idea what they are doing....lol.  Spent a lot of money, tried to build around Melo annnnnd........idk.  I think the Knicks need to clean house, starting with management down.  all bout Melo now, if he stays they will try to fix if he doesnt..........start from scratch. Maybe they should resign Starks and Ewing.

All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy

@gamble - I don't spend my time here. I post once a week.

@doc 

@ghost - rondo has to go. 100% must be shipped out. He will sulk for a decade and he is on the downside of his career IMO.

I could write a book on what the Knicks did to get in this situation. It's scary to think about.

Just know this.

When Lebron was making his decision, he made it at the boys/girls club in Connecticut.

90% of the NY media thought that meant he was coming to NY since that is the TRI-state area. 

He didn't come. Since then:

signed Amare, 

traded their entire team and this years draft pick  for Melo,
 
traded a future number one and second rounders for Bargnani,

amnestied Billups instead of Amare just to get Tyson Chandler (who the Mavs basically handed them on a silver platter because they wanted cap space to go after Deron),

Let go of Jeremy Lin so they could get Raymond Felton,

Signed Kenyon Martin from his couch,

Signed World Peace,

Fired D'Antoni and hired Woodson instead of making a serious run at Phil Jackson or Jeff Van Gundy,

Signed a 35 year Argentinian Pg, 

signed JR Smith AND his brother to contracts (bidding against themselves)

As a three point shooting team (most in NBA history last year), got rid of one of the best three point shooters in the NBA Steve Novak,

Signed Rasheed Wallace off his couch,

Signed 40 year old Kurt Thomas

Signed Baron Davis and Mike Bibby

Got rid if Donnie Walsh, the guy who is responsible for much of the Pacers success right now,

Signed Darko Milicic

Signed JKidd and he retired on them one year early

Drafted tim hardaway Jr


Now you pick the GOOD and BAD from that list and there is 90% BAD!

Scal I go over the same stuff with the players in my mind for the Knicks, even in this day and age the movement of players is out of this world, in 4 and a half years the knicks didn't have one player on their entire roster, from the 4 years before....right when Amare got there

Plus I couldn't agree more on the Celtics, they aren't in the same boat at all....were the Titanic sinking, they are the cruise line that made a few people sick, but will be ok in time...

It's a matter of money and timing...

Thanks again for the help on the bet last night, even though we lost...You will never see me sulk from that, rather from the fact at how horrible the Knicks are playing..

I'm sure we will be making more money together in the future and your still 7-3 from doing bets with you

Good luck in the future and your intelligence is bar-none

Thanks for that.

Since you are a Knick fan, you have to be surprised at how lifeless they were in the second half.

This is a nationally televised game (even the Sixers would show up for one) against your arch-rival and the greatest player of our generation, and you score...32 points in the second half. 

Dollar for dollar, this team is in the top 10 of the worst 'production for payroll' in NBA history. Nets would have been an easy #1 if they didn't turn things around but are still under .500.

They are paying a sizable LUXURY TAX for this crap. For the luxury of what? Taking night's off? 

Knicks were rested for this game after a brutal 5 in 7. And THAT is how they respond? 

If they signed Jimmer Fredette, it would be an upgrade. Think about that. A guy the lousy Kings, who got pounded on their home floor giving up 130 to the Rockets, CUT, would be an upgrade for the Knicks. 

They are in total and utter shambles.

Now having said that, watch them beat the loaded warriors outright tonight

ya gotta give the heat a little credit in this spot tho scalabrine instead of just focusing on wat the knicks couldnt do....always 2 sides to every contest...i dont disagree that knicks layed an egg for a stretch and maybe werent entirey ready to play(which is obviously perplexing) but it may have been immaterial any-how...as referenced by a few very early on in the thread miami has the smell of a very dangerous beast rite now that is just warming into its run into the playoffs and look like they will be ruthless many more nites than not..and as we all see it can just be like being in front of a buzz-saw wen they are in the mood.....as i stated early on i was torn between seeing a tonne of value in that slightly over-blown spread for a team capable of hanging with the best "on their nite"...and then also had trepidation about whether miami may flip the switch and for just how long.....idiots will call every bet terrible once it lose but i didnt see this as a terrible play necessarily.just one that i was unsure of enuff to leave alone

Sometimes they lose. I'm not a psychic. But you'll get your money's worth as far as a perspective when you open my threads.


everyone losing their money tailing you is ok but hey as long as you get some perspective out of it!

GL  dumb play either way

I'd like to make a spectacle of this posters stupidity.

Why? 

He's here now and will be here later, and probably for the rest of his life.

So as long as he's sticking around, let's attempt to understand who we are dealing with.

He's spent a full day in this thread. 

Did he even play the Heat/Knicks? No. He says this in the quoted post. 

Remarkably, it was a "dumb play either way."

That's having your cake and eating it too now isn't it? 

If the Heat win? You're an idiot. Dumb play for laying all that chalk.

If the Knicks win? Ya got lucky. You should never fade the red hot heat in Miami on the roll they are on. 

Does the stupidity end there?

No.

In post #360 above, someone had asked me what I thought of the Warrior/Knicks game tonight.

I said "It was a very rough spot for the Knicks."

To DeezNuts (it's embarrassing just to type his screen name), this is a 'contradiction' because I said it was a 'great spot' for the Knicks against the Heat but now, in a completely separate game, it was a 'rough spot'.

You see, to DeezNuts, if you think one way about one game and another way about another game involving the same team, you are 'contradicting' yourself.

But wait, it gets better.

He finally makes a contribution to this thread, one where he hints at a side, mainly because I'm on the opposing side (never fully committing but if he's right, you'll be sure to hear about it).

He says "This spot vs. GS is a whole lot better than it was yesterday when you placed the bet." That is, this spot for the Knicks getting 6. 

I thought it was a game against "deadly marksman" vs. a team incapable of defending the 3. 

The result? Knicks give up 126 points on their home floor while surrendering 14 3's.

Some spot that was wasn't it? And this is the guy killing me.

That folks, is "CoversDeezNuts" in a nutshell (pun intended).

He's here now. He'll be here later. 

Parasites can't survive without their host.

That's right. 

It's about argumentation for a specific viewpoint, that being a side in a game.

People harp on me in this thread for not considering the Miami side enough.

But I would like to think that's inherent in any Miami-based thread. There's not much to say about Miami's roster or how they are playing other than it is great and hitting it's stride. Therefore, to counter that, you have to focus on the other side, the Knicks intensely, which is what I did.

They spit the bit.

And what do you get in the end?

Lowlifes like "DeezNuts" (and MethBreath in his own right) who admit to not even playing a side but is willing to bash the losing side when all is said and done!

And the bashing is even more evident if you argued your side intensely. 

Look at the law profession. You can argue a side for months of your life in a trial that lasts for years and lose. It doesn't mean the argument wasn't worthwhile.
