And I wish Amare was good at defense and rebouding and could stay healthy. He was the first to come to NY and try to help. Just doesn't have what it takes anymore. PHX knew what they were doing letting him walk and wanting his contract insured

THIS too:

Phil Taylor ‏@SI_PhilTaylor 42s
I'll just say this: Be interesting to see if refs still believe in "principle of verticality" when Hibbert contests LBJ at the rim.

This will be interesting to watch. Very interesting

Alan Hahn said it was possible to get Chris Paul here but it is very difficult.

I dont know how its possible, but he said we'd need to move a big contract.

I found a discussion where they say how its possible somewhere else

^ Not likely unless a 3rd team gets involved, or CP3 holds the Clippers hostage then only wants a small contract in his first year.

You found a good article as he explains, it's not impossible, but probably not likely

Oh. Alan Hahn just mentioned this, Melo has an opt out next year, along with what feels like half the NBA (lebron included)

If Melo doesn't like what he sees, he can always opt out. Offseason very important.

Friggin Woodson after the game...you know..there is nothing wrong with whining...nothing. Riley...whined his way to the top...Phil Jackson..whined his way to the top.

After the game Woodson says you cant blame the refs...HUH? Even if thats true you whine..you set yourself up until it happens. You whine for Anthony until the whining works. Sometimes it takes a couple years to get ALL the calls..but you whine.

48 foul shots to 18? Are you kidding me? Chandler gets his 5th foul called down low for pushing off? Are you fucking kidding me? Does anyone watch the way Carmelo gets thumped every time he backs in?

And then you have Camby sitting on the bench. Better be hurt. I want and need to hear that he was hurt. Is Camby the Camby of old? No..but he blocks shots and he is hard to shoot over and Martin was destroyed as was Chandler.

Was he the answer? Who the f knows...but we never ever got a chance to find out. How do you not put him in for a 8 minute stretch to find out?

Just like you waited too long to get Copeland his minutes...waited to long to realize Kidd had not scored a field goal since april 23rd.

This was bad preparation and its something that has followed Woodson his entire career. And I truly love the guy....he is a good guy..and a very good coach getting the best out of guys..but he is not a good coach when it comes to playing your way not playing their way.

Those 3's they hit in the second half have been there the whole time..even in the Celtic series. We just changed our game to go hard to the net every time even if the other team is blocking every shot down low.

Ok..move on...I have faith that the front office is solid..and will bring in the right people to make this team better.

I wouldnt bring Smith back...not after seeing those stats for last year and this year come playoff time. The guy has no fire and not gut for tough times...none.

I loved him all year long but he is a goner in my book.

but you can blame the fucking refs. Who the fuck do can you blame?

Translation of Woodson's comment "I can't blame the refs, because I'll get fined, but to anyone with eyes and a brain, it was obvious. Not trying to say anything... just saying"

JR Smith. Poor officiating wouldn't have mattered if the dude even shot semi decently.
