Yeah, like I noted yesterday, the Western Conference has been eating itself alive. Lots of parity there.

I just saw Sacramento is actually in fourth place in the west (with a similar record to ours). In their game tonight, they blew out Houston. That is a long suffering fan base. I’m happy for them.

In reply to Alan.

Awful news for Hali, good for the Knicks’ playoff positioning! And good news for Brunson’s All Star Game chances!

Katz says Hali left the locker room on crutches. That sucks for him.

And he actually landed awkwardly on his shot leading into it, so may have been injured before Hart stepped on him…

Correction: Hart stepped on Hali’s foot, not Mitch

The second unit continues to be a problem- both IQ and RJ have had very good moments as the third option with the starters but have been total ass as primary initiators with the second unit. Hart needs to sit and get healthy and Deuce has to find a way to contribute SOMETHING on offense.

P.S. Jeff Beck was the George Gervin of rock guitarists- absolute stone cold stud as soloist/scorer but never really made the guys around him better.

Owen, Wally did a mea culpa prior to the game, sorta weak, saying he probably won’t be one this year but definitely will in the future.

Hali started slow but was turning it on when Mitch stepped on his leg during a rebounding situation. Hali limped off the court and didn’t return, but he was definitely coming on.

I actually thought Randle played his ass off defensively tonight. The entire 4th quarter until Grimes came in for Mitch Randle was having to cover a guard on the perimeter, his block late in the game was a huge play. But definitely struggled offensively despite actually not taking and forcing many shots.
