    That was hilarious. I can't believe the Globetrotters pulled that off, as bad as they were playing down the stretch as well. Knicks back in first!!!

    Also, Pelicans? Seriously?

    Mo Williams with a long three at the buzzer and Utah beats the Spurs 99-96

    Utah inbounded with over 7 seconds left and I thought Williams did a poor job. He basically dribbled the clock out before chucking the three with under a second remaining.

    An easier shot could've been had, but hey, he did make it.

    The Lakers are thin even with Gasol and Nash.

    Without them, they're left with four players:

    Artest (not that good), Kobe, Howard, and Jordan Hill (possibly starting caliber)

    the rest of the team is comprised of guys who shouldn't be playing minutes for a contender.

    Duhon, Jamison, Ebanks, Morris, and Meeks

    So it's no great surprise the Lakers are seriously struggling. As presently constructed, they can't afford injuries to Kobe, Howard, Gasol, or Nash.

    Kobe and Howard are playing 42-44 minutes a game.

    A lot of game winners/big shots can be defined as "no no no no no no.. Okay you made it, it's fine"

    Yeah, it's a very top heavy team. They should be able to get it to work, but it's not. Kobe's intensity and Dwight Howard's outwardly happiness/passiveness

    Let's go Ka Nicks!!! Take out the Lakers tonight... I don't really mind the Lakers but their fans drive me nuts. Biggest bunch of bandwagon fans I have ever come across. They need to be knocked down a notch or two.

    I think they're already down several notches after the way the last two seasons went and the way this season is going

    lol, he just called Novak "best shooter in the NBA today" :rofl:

    I mean I love the guy when he's on his game but he's not close to the best. Barkley makes shit up as he goes along. He was hating on the Knicks earlier that they're not going anywhere if they can't control rebounds. Pretty much shows you this is the first Knicks game he's seen all year

    He's still hating them. Miami isn't elite, they can't beat a team like SA, and for every THursday all season he has said "this shooting can't keep up" and every Thursday someone says, Chuck they're open looks and it's keeping up

    Barkley is a joke - he's not even pretending about how hard he's rooting against the Knicks.

    Tyson gives us 2 extra possession. Felton was trying to shoot us out of this game.

    But man Kidd dribbling around the LA defense was hilarious .

    Also, a Mike D'Antoni chant broke out in MSG.

    Charles Barkley now putting off his judgement of the KNicks until Amare comes back. Realizes he has been wrong all season long so has to go to the Amare hope.

    Also Felton has to stop "Getting up" for these big games. He shoots terribly in them.

    At one point the Cavs were down 20 points, somehow cut it to 2 points and it's now 6 with 7 minutes left. Against the Celtics, without Varajeo
