Plenty of people (Heat Triple L's) like LeBron. I'm pretty sure absolutely no one likes Wince
New York Pace Factors:
98.2 for the season (second fastest in the NBA)
96.5 the last 15 games (since the trade)
95.4 the last 7 games
92.0 the last 3 games
Monday night's game with Boston was another slow one that will be in the same neighborhood as the recent stragglers. Boston was at 92.8 for the year entering Monday. New York played to their pace.
The recent slump is not a case of the new Knicks having trouble adjusting to D'Antoni's style. D'Antoni's style has been thrown out the window!
We're on the outside looking in. And, those on the inside aren't always open about what's happening when a switch gets flicked like this. This does seem like a meaningful development.
It's not like Carmelo isn't used to pace. Entering Monday action, Denver--his old team--ranked just behind the Knicks in the #3 spot in tempo at 98.0. Whether it's to save themselves for the playoffs, or because depth is lacking after the trade, or because somebody somewhere is being obstinate, a Mark D'Antoni team has stopped running.

giri said:What? I agree the suns team should be blown up, but maybe you forgot that this "brand" of bball got them to the WCF last year, where amare went on to shit the bed. it's not SSOLL ball, hasn't been for years. The rockets are a team of scrappers, and as much as the suns need to tank for a top draft pick, that team needs to be blown the hell up also.
The suns under gentry win more games when they actually make an effort to play D. They're never going to be boston however...

Wow the definition of a loser right there.LiveFromKyoto said:This should pretty much explain everything:

Pkaz01 said:smith and robinson haven't pissed off fans of other teams like kobe and pierce have. And who hates birdman?
The Crimson Blur said:Why do you guys hate Nate Rob? What the fuck?
Oh in that case its understandable. I was going for a more universally hated list thats why i was surprised at the non mention of kobe and pierce. There are a lot of players that everyone hates but wouldn't mind if they are on their team.MorisUkunRasik said:It was a personal list.
After The Lakers beat the celtics the hate for their entire team deflated a bit for me, like after beating up a bully. So my pierce hate went down a bit since seeing his heart broken, KG's asshole-ness transcends that shit though.
Smith and Robinson on the other hand will proudly gloat and shout as if stole the ball from Kobe, broke MJ's ankle and dunked on Hakeem after making wide open 3s.
As for no one hating Birdman, fuck Birdman.

But in the future I will try my best to remember to call KG an Old punk ass bitch, crazy bitch, old dumbass bitch, a bitch's bitch.

Omiee said:hahaha you never know what they call each other in the heat of a game
Black Mamba said:I miss Gary Payton. He'd never stop running his mouth.
Oh, the team as a whole lacks an identity for sure, since amare left there's been no consistent big, for the PnR which is what all that floor spacing was for. Want to double on the PnR ? pass out to 3pt shooter. Don't double ? amare / nash is going to score. And i've been saying blow it up since about game 15.exarkun said:Thats true. You guys did go, but this season has just solidified the "need to start over" vibe I get. And yea, the Rockets do too but I would argue we have more quality pieces than Dudley and Frye types.
I think every team needs an identity to win, and the Suns don't have that. They used to play SSOLL ball, and that was the identity. Then Gentry comes and he keeps the offense but adds some defense (along with Lopez from last year, who was great). But this year they lost it and it looks to me like last year was flukey (what happened to Lopez other than getting injured?).
Another team that plays with no identity is the Hawks. Kinda of just "meh" all around, with a team full of people who would be great on other teams, but not one where it all depends on them.
Fuuuuuck and I completely forgot Hill. Hill is a beast, keep him at all costs.
