SRV Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 This is such a sub-par Christmas game. We went from the Lakers, to the Cavs, and now we are playing the Knicks on Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Next Knick Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 This is such a sub-par Christmas game. We went from the Lakers, to the Cavs, and now we are playing the Knicks on Christmas.It might be sub-par to you, but not to Knicks fans. We haven't seen a game on Christmas in forever, so this will be a nice one to watch. I'll be at Church, so I'll tape the first quarter or so. We're hot, hopefully the crowd gets into it and we can win another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Should be a pretty good game. D-Wade looked good last night so hopefully he'll keep it up and play well again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish7718 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 This is a completely different team than the Heat played on the first night of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 (edited) The Heat have made some recent changes as well. Carlos Arroyo is the new (but probably temporary) starting PG, and Dorell Wright is the 7th man. This Knicks record is 8-3 this month, while the Heat have been 5-5. I think this game will depend more on how the Heat play than how the Knicks play. No matter which team wins, it will be the Heat's fault. What I mean is, if the Heat approach this game with the right intensity, they should have no problem winning this game. However, if they come out flat, the Knicks could capitalize, make a huge run early on, and destroy them the same way as the Grizzlies and the Thunder have this season. The Heat are still a better overall team than the Knicks, but they will only win this particular game if they play the right way. I'll be looking for Wade to continue his second half play from last night, and come out firing tomorrow. Hopefully Beasley and Dorell will both bounce back from their terrible performances.

Jonah Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 The Knicks beat a horrible Chicago team a few nights ago with a HUGE performance from D-Lee. If Gallo and Wilson can find their stroke and if JJ can hold Wade under 25 points the Knicks can surprise the Heat. I think the Knicks take this, because they will be on fire from the field.

Poe Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 The Knicks will be firing depending on how motivated the Heat are when defending them. The Heat are typically a very good defensive team, so don't bank on the Knicks to get hot so easily. Also, Wade gets what he wants when he sets his mind to it. You've got to be crazy to think one man can stop a top 3 player in the world like Wade. Only Wade can slow down Wade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Wade will just be another star to shine in the Garden, but the difference here will be tht it will be on Christmas day. Wade drops 52-7-7. Miami kills 96 -74 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's Finest Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 I want to see the Knicks get into the playoffs so a Knicks win here would be cool. This is actually a good game to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonah Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Jared Jeffries is playing fantastic right now. I hope Gallo can find his shot and not go like 2-11 from the field again tonight. Come on Knicks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonah Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Holy [expletive], the Knicks cant buy a 3. Gallo wide open and misses and chandler misses. Heat are starting to pull away, the knicks need to start playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland's Finest Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 The Heat's offense has gotten better when they move the ball. They have a lot of offensive rebounds from what it looks like. The Knicks will lose if they keep taking these threes....they are cold....lmao at the "We Want Nate" chants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish7718 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Wow we just got totally [expletive]ed by the refs, first harringtons technical which should have been a point for us instead of them, then obvious foul on lee from wade, then Jermaine O'Neal pushed off and got the rebound inbetween 4 Knicks, [expletive]ing NBA refs protecting Wade and his Heat. We still should have played better but the Refs really didnt help us at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Next Knick Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Can Wade get pampered anymore? Seriously? Once Hughes jumped up to block his pass and they skimmed jerseys, barely touched each other and wham, foul. Ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 (edited) ^ Watchu talkin' 'bout? (edit: @Flash) The refs are so obviously protecting the Heat and Wade Anyway, Wade is looking more and more like the scoring machine we saw last year. He was very efficient all around, today. Good to see Daequan back in the rotation. Hopefully he stays there and will gain more confidence with his jumper and his overall game. Great defense from Dorell and Haslem today, although Dorell needs to attack with the ball in his hands.. there were a few times where he was alone on a break with freaking Danilo guarding him, and he just pulls out. He is MUCH quicker than Gallo. He needs confidence. Beasley played.... somewhat ok today. Much better than last game, but he really needs to improve his hustle and overall defense. Only 2 boards in 35 minutes... Chalmers is looking better defensively. If he can pick up his aggression on offense, he'll eventually make his way back to the starting line up.

Ridiculous.Yea, and I'm sure the refs also forced your team to shoot 5-28 from three and commit 17 TOs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonah Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Once again the Knicks let a game slip away from them. They were ice cold from 3, but they kept shooting. In the last minute of the game wilson and al realized that they had to drive the ball to score. Wade is a monster. When the knicks were trying to make a late run, wade would pull up with atleast 1 man in his face and drain it. 11-18 Spurs and Nets ahead of us. 8-4 in December, still remarkable for a team that started 1-9.

Poe Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 I was impressed with Gallo. He's developing a great all around game. First game I watched, all he did was camp and shoot. Now he's driving, rebounding, dishing. He's doing it all. I like this team's core with Chandler, Gallo, and Lee. They should try and keep those three guys, and maybe Duhon as well. D'Antoni still needs that point guard. Also, why the [expletive] is the crowd chanting for Nate. They've had a winning record (7-4) since Mike's benched him since the first of this month.

You need to admit Wade got some calls to protect him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
