BouncyBall 2013/2014

Re: BouncyBall 2013/2014

The Knicks snap their 16 game losing skid tonight, beating the Pelicans 99-92. However, they're still the worst team in the NBA.
 
Re: BouncyBall 2013/2014

Time for my annual rant on how football considerations destroyed the nation's best college basketball conference. :(

Sure, there is still a nominal "Big East" consisting of the non-football schools from its glorious predecessor, but a "Big East" without Syracuse, UConn, Notre Dame, Pitt, ....

Basketball is Dead and the Knicks and Sixers Murdered It

This is the ultimate expression of the 2014-15 Knicks and Sixers: The motions and attitudes and gestures of basketball, of competition, producing (for those 20 seconds, between K.J. McDaniels's contested airball and the foul-call that stops play) nothing but embarrassment and failure engineered by the teams themselves. Measured by their own perverse goals, it's the most successful sequence of the entire season, for either organization. Look how convincingly they mimic the movements and grunts of basketball players, without covering a single inch in the direction of victory! Look how much game-time they winnow away, and how fruitlessly they do it! The front offices must have swelled with pride at the sight.

The referee's whistle that ended this torture-porn atrocity was a wildly unearned act of mercy. By all rights, when last night's game ended, everyone in the Wells Fargo Center ought to have been loaded onto buses and taken directly to dark, quiet rooms where they could contemplate the horrors of the void.

The Knicks outscored the Sixers, 98-91. I don't even know what that means. Can a basketball game between two teams that want to lose be "won"? Is it a basketball game at all?

In last night's Sacramento vs. Golden State game, the Warriors' Klay Thompson scored 37 points in the third quarter. In fact, the score that quarter was:

Klay Thompson 37
Sacramento Kings (as a group) 22

Living in the Bay Area, I kind of wait to become a single-season bandwagon fan of the Warriors just because with them it feels like the one year they ever have a chance of things coming together. Of course, the Pistons are technically only a game out of the 8th seed, so who knows? :p
