You Lost Big Boy, Stop Manhandling Our Furniture

I was in a YouTube chat for Nets fans, Nets News, and these bummy, guttersnipe Knicks fans were so upset with the loss that they reported the channel and had the stream shutdown.

These are the same people who claim that the Nets are irrelevant and couldn't possibly win New York. They couldn't even handle losing a close game with out acting like babies.

Speaking of crybabies. Julius Randle, don't toss around our nice furniture like you have no class. Wait until you get back to MSG to break Dolan's cheap furniture when you get upset. You lost big boy and as long as Irving, Harden and Durant are here you will never be the dominant team in this city.

The Nets went into the the middle of the third quarter with an 18 point lead and then things began to fall apart.

Not only did both Kyrie and Harden get sloppy with the ball and commit untimely turnover but Harden's jump shot was flat and short all game.

James should be very well rested coming off the All Star break unless he was in Atlanta getting his arm tired from tossing singles in the strip clubs.

Whatever the reason, the Nets once again played down to the level of the competition. The Nets should have been up by 30 to start the fourth quarter. 

The Knicks took advantage of Nash's poor coaching decisions.

When Claxton was taken off the floor by Steve Nash the Knicks saw Deandre Jordan as a big green light to attack the basket. Barret and Randle went to work on Jordan and the lead quickly evaporated.

And for some reason Nash has Joe Harris inbounding the ball after fouls. The inbounder should be the tallest, most skillful passer on the floor. I love Joe but that is not him.

These coaching mistakes are often why the Nets play down to the level of the competition and allow poor teams to make games like this close. 

Fortunately for Nets fans Frank Ntilikina can't hit a shot and the Knicks guards are no match for Kyrie Irving so we came away with the win.

The Knicks lose again, Nets 117 - 112 Knicks

When players around the league state that they love playing at MSG many New Yorkers misunderstand what is being told. They actually believe that it is a compliment to the building and the Knicks as a franchise.

Steph Curry placed in a nutshell what other players actually think about MSG. Curry said that he was delighted that the Garden allowed some fans in the building last night because whether it is 2500 or 25000 he loves shutting up heckling Knicks fans and beating the them in their building.

That is the only appeal MSG under the ownership of James Dolan has around the league.

Curry toyed with the Knicks for a half and then when he got tired his 37 points put the game away. The Warriors got the victory despite the MVP chants for Julius Randle by fans in the building.

Poor Knicks fans.

The rumor mill has it that there is a good chance that Kevin Knox will be traded by the time you finish reading this post. Good for him if it does happen. Knox and Ntilikina are wasting their youth on the Knicks. It is time to move on to bigger and better.

Before I go, is it just me or do you also find the name Obadiah Toppin sounds like some type of a Sid and Marty Krofft character?

You are still invited to the parade

The Knicks must have enjoyed the night life in Orlando before the game last night against the Magic because they flat ran out of gas in the third quarter and could not mount a comeback to stave off defeat.

The game was close for the first two and a half quarters but Terrence Ross got hot in the second half of third quarter and went on a torid run resulting in 30 points in 30 minutes. Ross was too much for the Knicks guards to handle.

Julius Randle tried his best with a 25 point effort and RJ Barrett started the game very aggressive but he only finished with 15 points. After halftime they both were clearly ready to head back to New York City and let Orlando have this one.

The Knicks most recent acquisition Derrick Rose had a pedestrian 4 points in 17 minutes of play which was not enough of course.

So Knicks fans, can you calm down with all the talk about wanting the Nets in the first round of the playoffs? Your team is years away from being competitive in the playoffs. Just watch your young guys grow together and build camaraderie and enjoy that. 

And yes, you are still invited to the parade in Brooklyn in July. See you there.
