I remember when Monta first was coming up with the Warriors I never thought he was a star but likened him to Bobby Jackson. Bobby Jackson scared the shit out of me on those Kings teams back in the day coming off the bench, but nobody had this delusion that he was a star player in the making or deserved to be a starting PG. If more players and GMs realized this teams could be stacked. Monta would be a beast off the bench for some good team, but he thinks he's Allen Iverson and GMs pay him like he is.

There was no game that looked better than Crysis on PS3 at one point, either.

Then Killzone and Uncharted 2 came out and blew that shit out of the water.

This is Crysis 1 running on GTX680 SLI: http://www.abload.de/img/3ghz5bjax.png (Large PNG ahead).

But we digress

don't ever post again

 

[commish]

I've got odds its PHX.

The current FO is retarded enough.

Come on. I would be furious if we signed Monta.

 

[reilo]

don't ever post again

Riveting post from a Knicks fan. So full of thought and insight. I am humbled, sir.

ead

 

[Syphon Filter]

Reilo, Crysis shits on killzone and uncharted easily. even on crysis 3.

 

[Justin Timberlake]

Monta is extremely talented and I wish he had the right coach

Unfortunately, as it is right now, he hurts his team more than he helps

 

[The Frankman]

Until Monta fixes his head, his game will never recover. He needs a Greg Popovich in the worst way.

Curious, what does one's fandom have to do with it? Thought it was a graphics discussion.

[Blackace]

lol

you do realize we're rebuilding right?

trading an asset for nothing and then trading your young soon to be expiring SF who's helped change the tone of your team defensively for an aging vet who's apart of the old big three?

Just fucking slit my throat already.

Crawford stopped being an asset as soon as he hit the media with how disgruntled he was

 

[Black Mamba]

The impressive part isn't the dunk but his ability to throw the ball from that far that hard from through his legs, wtf wtf wtf.

Monta has loads of talent

Bench player? Bobby Jackson? Yeah that's pretty out there!

Pretty sure STAT wrenched his back 2 years ago trying to do a dunk like that.

 

[Emwitus]

Kobe was great and all yesterday, but man, i hope nash sat him down and spoke to him how the lakers started turning things around. I hope he doesn't go gunning again down in denver or will get another blow out. The last time we beat denver we went inside out throught dwight....please get back to that and kobe moving the ball.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

LeBron jeeeez. Heat care more about pre game warmups than regular season games lol.

 

[Truelize]

Thankfully we have Beal. If we had MKG he'd probably be a Wizard right now.

I can imagine Monta in a bobcats uniform though.

You think Jordan would take Monta? He hasn't proved yet that he doesn't make bad decisions.
But anything would be a positive over what the Ben Gordan situation has been.


I love the idea of him being a dangerous player off the bench. But he would never take that role. He has it all remember? Him and Wade.

Kobe had 7 assists yesterday and not to mention a blown layup or 2 from his passes.

The fuck you talking about? Kobe moved the ball just fine. Not every loss is his fault. He can move the ball and MWP can still end up chucking like a moron.

 

[Blackace]

Monta or MJ?

 

[Truelize]

Monta or MJ?

Haha. Both.

But I meant MJ this time around.
I'm not knowledgable on all the player moves MJ has done in his new role. But I haven't really seen him make any real positive noise either.
Has he?

 

[pilonv1]

If Knicks had capspace they'd sign him, fuck, if NYK had assets or picks to trade he'd be a Knick right now. Monta is the embodiment of Knicks basketball

Monta & Nate Robinson playing together last year was like Knicks east. Would go from horrific to amazing to atrocious within 30 seconds.

 

[giri]

Come on. I would be furious if we signed Monta.

Oh, they probably will. and pay 13 or 14M while they're doing it.

Then dragic will get pissed off and request a trade.

And they'll ship out dudley with dragic in return for some useless shit like bradley or felton or hinrich. Probably Hinric, because the suns are win now, of course.

The the suns will be worse than the kings. And the FO a confirmed joke that people will expect to be able to abuse in trades.

Then after 5 years of shit ticket sales sarver might consider selling, or just relocation.

 

[Blackace]

Honestly putting Monta on the Cats would a bad move
Considering the have a young core and new coach

So he'd probably do it

 

[reilo]

Can you imagine having Monta for 80 games a season? Suns fan won't have to imagine!

 

[Emwitus]

The last quarter was all kobe. Yes he made those buckets but are those shots i want kobe taking against teams like denver or okc? Teams that run or defensive teams? HELL NO. You're being delusional if you think kobe averaging 30 is going to get as anywhere.

EDIT: And if you've been following the games, the ball movement that was there 5/6 games ago is now all but gone.

Monta & Kemba would be fun.

I thought Milwaukee would be a good spot for him since there's plenty of interior defense but he needs the ball in his hands to be really effective. I don't know if playing him with Dragic would be any better than Jennings.

 

[thekad]

Denver needs to step up tonight and stamp out any hope Lakers fans have of making a run toward the playoffs.

That won't stamp out hope.. The Jazz have a pretty brutal schedule to end the year, there is a good chance the Lakers get in.

 

[Dominican Power]

NBA TV gives us BOS/UTAH instead. smh

 

[diehard]

How dare they give us 2 teams fighting for playoff position over 2 teams fighting for playoff position.

 

[thekad]

The Jazz have a decent lead and the Lakers April schedule is pretty brutal:

DAL
MEM
LAC
NO
@POR
GS
SA
HOU

I could see them losing every single one of those games.

The difference is that The Nuggets are fun to watch and The Lakers are always entertaining good or bad.

Lets be honest, BOS @ UTA will be more competitive than LAL @ DEN.

plus its always fun watching the utter disdain Al Jeff has for KG.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

I had no clue that Denver's home record was so good. Also, the playoff picture is looking real good.

Clips/Warriors
Thunder/Jazz
Grizzlies/Nuggets

then there's

Knicks/Bulls
Nets/Hawks
Pacers/Celtics...

Western Conference playoffs are gonna be a blood bath.

Edit: Rose can dunk again, return is soon.

 

[Nori Chan]

I expect nothing but a loss today.

Hopefully we get some more drama to add to the season. Maybe Nash yelling at Dwight back.

 

[Emwitus]

^Yup i'm penning it in as a loss. Only 3 teams have won in denver...and kobe is in kome mode, so yeah. I guess it's back to hating again. It seems so long ago when we were losing 20/30 point leads. Now its just neck to neck.

 

[diehard]

If the Jazz have to play the Spurs again... screw it just give the Lakers that spot.

i see a 4-15 performance from kobe and dwight will foul out

 

[Emwitus]

lol ditto. In all this "winning" no one has noticed dwight has again reverted back to his 8 shots a game and kobe to 20.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Alright Wizards...start making some shots.

 

[thekad]

Lakers still have the 4th easiest schedule overall remaining.

A lot of road games against those mediocre teams, though.

 

[Black Mamba]

lol ditto. In all this "winning" no one has noticed dwight has again reverted back to his 8 shots a game and kobe to 20.

God you're annoying. Dwight was in foul trouble yesterday and wasn't out there long enough to get shots and he obviously doesn't get the ball in the final 4 minutes.

Before last night here are his last 4 games FGA

14, 13, 10, 15.

with 12,8, 8, 6 FTA.

Kobe's only shot a lot the last 2 games. They needed it in the Portland game. And I'm sure you forgot how his took ZERO shots in the 2nd quarter of that game and were playing from behind at times.

Look, Kobe may shoot a lot tonight. It's the worst B2B in the NBA. I give em a 90% chance to lose. But just fucking stop with this bullshit. Kobe is moving the ball. Yes, he started to chuck a bit late yesterday when the team was reeling. They needed it. He also got Nash his open 3 and let Nash run some late game offense, too.

So fucking stop. ARGH.
