Rim protector Norvel Pelle signing with the Nets Problem solved
I loved this guy
Haven't heard of him but his highlight reel looks amazing, both defensively and some pretty quick finishes on offense too. I don't think the term "cat-like reflexes" would be too far off here.

It's been a looooong time since I've said this, and I'm still not sure I'm actually gonna say this.......
But the Knicks are actually putting together a potentially really good team. I'll tell you what, they play some serious defense, and that's a start to finally get out of the doldrums of the last 25 years.

Maybe we'll get lucky and a 13th fake Marco will suddenly appear here soon. I bet the real Marco, wherever he may be, is digging these new Knicks.

Still undefeated when our whole Starting 5 plays together
Some things have carried over from last year too -
We have the best home record in the NBA - 9-1
That 1 loss was when we played just 7 players due to Covid - started like 4 rookies (had to dress an injured player who didn't play - Mike Scott to meet the NBA protocol) to the Nuggets

No, I'm not. You said Curry was more important to your team because he's a great 3 point shooter. Kerr was a great three point shooter too, I'm pretty sure he wasn't as important as the other guys on the team. So I guess I'm comparing Jordan to all time great Ben Simmons! You're right, I've reached an all time low. Allow me to laugh at myself now. You guys stink

No Tatum, and Pritchard going down didn't help. I can take solace in the fact that you guys were 3-1 against the C's last year and the C's still swept you out of the playoffs. It's a long season, even this year.

Thats right
I forgot that Boy Wonder went out
When he went out he had 0 points
And on Wednesday night he had 3 points
He was surely the difference maker

Not the first time we've seen this, and let's face it, we all know how the movie is gonna end. I know it, you know it, the Philly fans know it. So let the "kid" enjoy this, no one knows how this will play out better than he does. 🥺🥺🥺

Sixers at Detroit 7pm
Lets see if we can extend our lead in the East
East Standings -
1. Sixers 2. Bucks 3. Celtics 4. Pacers 5. Nets That 'cute' Heat team that I told everybody was an aberration is nowhere to be found
In fact - they're 13th in the Conference

No male refs in the Magic game tonight. Was it a subtle burn that they decided to do this in a "whore nuts" game?
