2016-17 Running NBA Thread

How cool would a Knicks boycott be? Get on it, Women's March organizers!

 

Probably quiet because they're still only 23-30. I wonder what the record for win streak is for a team that finished the season under .500.

 

Destroyed the CBA too, right?

 

Such an absurd situation. The guy's like the most beloved Knick in the last three decades--held by far in higher esteem by the fan base than anyone currently connected to the organization--yet not even allowed near where they play.

Is there really no goddamned way to force Dolan out? What he's done to that franchise over the last two decades ought to be criminal.

 

Here's a longshot: Knicks fans buy JD & The Straight Shots albums by the millions, convincing Dolan he's a legitimate musician who needs to devote all his time to his craft, promoting the band and touring?

I got a kick out of the discography on their Wikipedia page.

 

Knicks-Nuggets is must watch TV tonight.

 

NBA Countdown with Beadle, Jalen, and Chauncey is really good and their chemistry is fantastic.

 

Draymond Green just put up the first triple-double in NBA history that didn't include double-digit points. 12 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals.

Also the first player to have 10 steals and 5 blocks in the same game.

 

Wow that was the first time? Damn

 

Never change, Daily News.

 

Not to be slotted as a Dirk Nowitzki hater: He's a first-ballot HOFer.

But as long as the Mavericks hang onto him, they'll feel obligated to try to be competitive because of him. And they're nowhere close. They have a fun little young team right now, but what does a No. 8 seed do for you? Nothing but perpetuate mediocrity. In the NBA, a No. 8 seed every year is purgatory. That's Trail Blazers or Jazz or Wizards territory.

Maybe one of these days Mark Cuban will finally do what's right, cut Dirk loose and not let him hold the franchise hostage anymore.

 

That headline and photo go as perfectly together as anything I've seen in a long time.
