Miami Repeats.


Grab your barf bags and your closest friends and prepare to leap off the roof of the nearest building because "King James" and the Miami Heat have been crowned NBA Champions once again. This annoys me because:

1. Lebron James is an arrogant dick 
2. Those Miami bandwagon fans don't deserve shit (Please refer to them leaving game 6 early having no faith in their team to pull off a comeback in the last 20 or so seconds which they in fact did)
3. The Spurs had a chance to wrap this series up in Game 6 and blew a 4 point lead in the past 20 or so seconds!!!

UGHHHH is all I have to say. This mostly irks me because I feel like this Miami Heat team will continue to win championships for the next few years as long as they're together and no one else will have a chance! So depressing.

And That's All, Folks.


I know it happened a few days ago, but I've yet to comment on the fact that the Knicks were ousted from the playoffs by the Indiana Pacers in 6 games mostly because I didn't want to think about it. The Pacers physical style of play down low & rebounding domination was simply too much for the Knicks to overcome in this series and it certainly manifested itself. Melo did his best to put on a show and try to save this series in game 6 as the Knicks attempted an epic comeback on the road, but it wasn't enough.

The Knicks will have to spend the offseason working hard to continue to make the offense gel and possibly add some needed depth for their big men who were dominated throughout this series in particular.

In terms of individual play, Melo did what he was supposed to do for his team but didn't get the support he needed. J.R. Smith was ice cold throughout this entire series and that really really hurt us offensively. In addition to this, Tyson Chandler was uncharacteristically disappointing in this series as well. I don't know what his deal was. On a positive note, Iman Shumpert really came on strong during this series, and Raymond Felton showed us why he was the right choice for this team over Jeremy Lin.

The Knicks will have awhile to reflect on the season and hopefully will come back stronger next year in hopes of going even deeper into the playoffs. It will be interesting to see if J.R. re-signs, and if Kidd, who also had a lackluster playoff performance, will retire. Anyways, Smooches.

Barely Clinging to Life...


The Knicks are on the verge of elimination after another very poor performance against the Indiana Pacers. They are now down 3 games to 1 aka their season is basically over. I've been extremely disappointed with the Knicks' effort, mostly on the offensive side of the ball in this series particularly.

Ever since his suspension in the first round against the Boston Celtics, J.R. Smith has been virtually useless in this series shooting a horrid shooting percentage and not providing any help to this already anemic offense. The Knicks are also getting murdered on the boards and giving up far too many offensive rebounds and second chance opportunities to the Pacers.

Game 5 is in New York tomorrow night and it could very well be the Knicks last unfortunately. I hope that they can somehow find it in themselves to dramatically turn this series around, but judging by their performance all series long, this simply doesn't seem feasible. No smooches to you Knicks!!!

The Knicks Tie It Up.


This is pretty much the only highlight needed for this game! The Knicks came well prepared in Game 2 at home against the Pacers and blew them out 105-79 with the help of a 30-2 run stretching from the third quarter onwards as well as a very strong game from Carmelo Anthony and his supporting cast.

The series is now tied up 1-1 as both teams head to Indiana Saturday for Game 3 at 8pm. Surprisingly the Knicks are also expecting to have Stat back in the lineup for Game 3 after missing an extended period of time with his continued knee injuries. Hopefully Stat can make some kind of impact in the post on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.

This is clearly going to be a tough series but last night's game pointed out the Pacers offensive flaws, and how these flaws can be potentially disastrous against a strong defensive showing by the Knicks and a poor shooting night on the part of Indiana. Let's steal Game 3 and stay focused Knicks!! Smooches.

Not a Great Start Indeed.


I missed all of the Knicks' Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals yesterday afternoon, and I'm glad I did. The Pacers came into MSG and apparently shut the Knicks down defensively as Carmelo Anthony has continued his shooting struggles from the field the past few games. J.R. Smith has also been nowhere to be found since his return from suspension in the first round against the Celtics. Unfortunately the Knicks just lost home-court advantage and must win Tuesday to avoid traveling to Indiana down 0-2. Wake up Knicks, it's do or die out here!!!

Knicks Looking to Take Control of First Round Series...


So I know I haven't been posting much lately, but let's get straight to it. The Knicks are in the midst of a first round battle with the Boston Celtics, and are currently up 2-0 heading to Boston Friday night. The Knicks were able to take care of home court with tough defense, particularly in the second half of both games and are looking to push the Celtics to the brink by grabbing game 3. Melo & J.R. are going to have to continue their tear on offense, and Kenyon Martin and Tyson Chandler will have to keep up their defensive intensity. Anyways, Let's Go Knicks, we got this!!!

Stat Out 6 Weeks...


I really don't know how we've gotten back to this again, but Amar'e Stoudemire has had yet another setback with his injury woes and will require ANOTHER surgery to help his weak knee. I think everyone was caught off guard by this news because Stat had been playing so well as of late, but he's now expected to miss another 6 weeks of the season putting him on schedule to return around the beginning of the playoffs.

This is obviously not good news as his inside presence and dominance as of late has been much needed, but the Knicks are going to have to move forward without him. I get the feeling that Stat may not even return in 6 weeks but who really knows. The Knicks have also been without team star Carmelo Anthony the past few games, but we're hoping that this injury isn't too serious and that he can return soon. In any case, we must keep our heads high and continue to support the Knicks as they push towards the playoffs and onwards. Let's go Knicks!!!

I'm Late But...


Obvi the Miami Heat won the NBA Finals 4 games to 1 and Lebron finally got his ring blah blah blah. I can't be too mad because I won a $50 bet , but I don't like that nigga so it's just whatevs. Anyways, hopefully this won't be the start of a fuckin' dynasty in Miami cause I ain't tryna' hear dat. Smooches.

Lebron WHO???


Kevin Durant completely stole the show last night in the Thunder's game 1 victory over Miami, 105-94. He dropped 36 points in this one and poured it on in the 4th quarter to seal the deal for his team in their come-from-behind victory. Although I have money on the Heat to win it all as I'm sure I've previously stated, it brings me great joy to see them lose lose LOSE, so this is really a win-win situation for me. Miami needs to wake up unless they want to get beat in this series, and the big 3 is going to have to really step it up BIG TIME cause the Thunder obviously ain't playin' no games. Smooches.

Here We Gooooooooo


The NBA Finals are finally about to begin tomorrow night, and it should be a pretty epic one indeed. As much as I dislike Lebron "Flop-queen-crybaby" James and his foolish team, this Heat-Thunder match-up should be quite entertaining to say the least. I personally think that the Thunder have more talent then the Heat all around, but you can never count Miami's Big 3 out. They pulled off 2 straight wins against Boston to win in 7 games and they are surely capable of winning this series as well. But it won't be easy as the Thunder have home-court advantage and their fans will have that building rockin' like a bridge in an earthquake. Everyone tune in tomorrow, June 12th at 9pm on ABC to catch game 1 of the NBA Finals in Oklahoma City. Smooches!!!

Stormin' To the Finals...


So first of all congrats to the Thunder for making it to the NBA Finals this year as they finished off the Spurs in Oklahoma City last night, 107-99 to win the series 4-2 after being down 0-2. I have mad respect for the Thunder and they have a great team and all of that, but more importantly my ass is fucked (not literally this time heeeheee) because I put money on the Spurs to win it all this year!!! FUCK!!!! But anyways, the Celtics have a chance tonight to finish off the Miami Heat at home and BIG SMOOCHES will be given to them if they can do that!! Fuck that Lebron nigga!!!!!! Smooches.

Hottie of the Day...






The Oklahoma City Thunder are playing fucking amazing, which is fucking up my $ (aka I put money on the Spurs winning the championship), but more importantly, they have this player, Thabo Sefolosha who is a QT fo sho. I think he's Swiss or something and can give smooches all night long. Oh and ummmm his wife is a DIME too!!

Can't Nobody Hold Them Down.


The Spurs just completed yet another sweep in these 2012 NBA Playoffs last night by finishing off the L.A. Clippers in Los Angeles, 102-99. Dating back to the regular season, the Spurs have now won 18 games in a row as they swept their way through the first round as well. Alot of people hate on the Spurs but they are quietly doing their thang and look like they have a great shot at making the finals again.

They will most likely meet the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, who are currently up 3-1 on the Lakers. I think that will be a great match-up to watch. Also I must give myself smooches because in the middle of the regular season I drunkenly put money on the Spurs and Heat in the finals, and they are both still alive in da playoffs. Although I certainly wouldn't mind seeing Miami not reach the finals, or simply not win an NBA championship ever. Smooches.

Woohooooooo


OMG We didn't get swept!!! The Knicks won their first playoff game in like 7 million years yesterday afternoon as they defeated the Miami Heat, 89-87 at Madison Square Garden. We are still down 3-1, so there's a good chance that this series could be over Wednesday in Miami, but maybe we can pull off a miracle and come back to win the series 4-3?????!!!!! LOL I won't be counting on that, but it's nice to beat the Heat regardless. Smooches especially to Melo & Stat who finally showed that they indeed can co-exist together and get shit done.

Nope.


The Knicks got absolutely WRECKED in their game 1 matchup in Miami, 100-67. Everything that could have gone wrong basically went wrong, and Iman Shumpert is now out for 6-8 months as he suffered a torn ACL during yesterday's game. If we continue to play like this we will get swept just like last year, and Mike Woodson's job may be in great danger.

No one showed up for the Knicks at all yesterday, and Lebron shitted all over us in addition to adding in some oscar-worthy flop moves like the fucking stunt-queen he is. That retarded ass nigga is definitely on my hit-list and I hope the Heat lose the finals again this year. Anyways, Game 2 is tomorrow night, and I think it's safe to say that losing that one will have us royally fucked. Hopefully with some miracle we can pull our shit together in time to avoid another embarassing exit from the playoffs. NO SMOOCHES.

It's Playoff Time!!!


It's about that time motherfuckers!!! The 2012 NBA Playoffs begin tomorrow, April 28th at 1pm. More importantly MY Knicks will be taking on the Miami Heat in the first round as we clinched the 7th seed by blowing out the lowly Bobcats last night in the regular season finale. Sidenote, the Bobcats ended the season with the lowest winning percentage in NBA history last night LOL.

Anyways, on to the important shit. The Knicks will take on the Heat in South Beach tomorrow at 3:30pm for game 1 of this star-studded series. I think it would be a bit absurd of me to argue that the Knicks will win this series, but I think we've been playing our best ball as of yet, and Heat fans would be lying if they said that they weren't at least a bit nervous about this first round matchup. The Knicks pose alot of problems for the Heat on the defensive end, and we have an endless amount of offensive weapons if everyone is playing at their best.

I think this will be a pretty competitive series, and I'm predicting that each game will most likely come down to the wire. Most importantly though, it's the playoffs, and no matter what happens I stand behind my KNICKS. This shit is going to be fun y'all!!!!

Here are the rest of the first round matchups below. This should be a very entertaining year for playoff basketball! Smooches.

(1) Bulls vs. (8) 76ers

Bulls or Heat???



So the Magic as expected beat the pathetic Bobcats last night and clinched the 6th seed. This means that we are stuck with a first round matchup against either the Bulls or the Heat. We basically have our pick of who we want to play since we beat the Clippers last night at home and we finish the season tonight in Charlotte against the Bobcats. I really don't know who would be the better matchup for us. The Bulls play intense D and have a deep bench, while the Heat are... the Heat and obvi have the best "big 3" in the league.

Well anyways, we will know by the end of today who we will face in the first round & I will be soon grabbing up all the Knicks gear I can find and getting into playoff mode. Smooches.
