Here are some key members of the current Miami Heat rotation: A center who resuscitated his career in Lebanon, a forward who was playing for a bad team in China a few weeks ago, and a couple of graduates of the NBA Development League.
Andrea Bargnani and Alexey Shved each scored 18 points for the Knicks, who led at the half, but Eric Bledsoe helped the hosts dominate the rest of the way.
Dennis Schroder had 24 points and 10 assists, Al Horford scored 21 points and the Atlanta Hawks beat the Los Angeles Lakers 91-86 on Sunday night.
Atlanta and Golden State, the league’s top teams for most of the season, are exciting and evenly matched, but each still needs to show that its success can translate to the postseason.
Eric Bledsoe fell a rebound shy of a triple-double and the Phoenix Suns overcame a sluggish first half to beat the New York Knicks 102-89 on Sunday night.
Guard Russell Westbrook scored 36 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 109-100 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Sunday at the Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Westbrook had 36 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists to help the Thunder hold off the visiting Bulls, and he finished without a triple-double for only the third time in his last nine games.
The San Antonio Spurs lost Manu Ginobili to a sprained right ankle in the third quarter of a 123-97 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night.
LaMarcus Aldridge had 24 points and 10 rebounds and the Portland Trail Blazers beat the Toronto for the 12th time in 13 meetings, routing the struggling Raptors 113-97 on Sunday night.
Will Barton scored 25 points, including the tying 3-pointer late in the first overtime, and the undermanned Denver Nuggets won their fourth straight, 118-111 over the New Orleans Pelicans in double overtime Sunday night.
Kyrie Irving scored 33 points, J.R. Smith had 25 and the Cleveland Cavaliers rolled past the Orlando Magic 123-108 on Sunday night.
PHOENIX — This was not how the West was won. The Knicks took the court at U.S. Airways Arena Sunday for the very first time this season with zero percent…
Knicks rookie Cleanthony Early was on the last team to enter the NCAA Tournament undefeated.
Continuation from yesterday….to quote BC:
Watch….after PJax gets ousted for whatever reason (health, buyout, etc.), I bet Isaiah is going to be the next president. Wouldn’t that be a doozy?
The dysfunction starts with Jimmy D. As long as he owns the team, this cloud will hover over the franchise. Even a “star” like Melo, who adds to this cloud.
There are few grounds for ever being able to justifiably stop being a fan of a basketball team you grew up watching but the return of Isiah would incontestably be one of them. If that happens I’ll probably stop being a Knicks fan until Dolan’s dead; there’s only so much abuse a fanbase can take.
BTW AD almost recorded at quadruple double last night
16-28 FGM 4-6 FT 14RB 7AS 1STL 9BLK 2TO 1PF 36PTS
I would probably cut a hand off for AD on the Knicks.
If you really feel the need to post an anti-Jackson screed every day, can you at least leave the casual misogyny at home?
Such is the power of greed: perfectly decent women become complete whores the night they meet George Clooney. They want what he has and will do anything and will overlook whatever flaws he may have in order to get it. Disappointment and bitterness is always the result. Similary, a lot of Knicks fans are willing to look the other way for as long as they hold hope Phil Jackson will deliver their dreams. Disappointment and bitterness will be the result.
When you formally apply to be Dolan’s official e-mail ghost writer, this can be your writing sample.
sic transit gloria captain luke
the casual misogyny grates, but overall post #4 is a truly impressive work of self-caricature. 10/10, bravo Luke, bravo.
But really that’s some old testament shit being spewed.
lol
Before today I just didn’t like you because your basketball analysis was poor, repetitive, and downright bizarre at times. Now that you’ve revealed yourself to be a genuinely unpleasant human being, I think it’s time for you to go.
If we all ever met up for a happy hour somewhere in the city, this would be one hell of an interesting group. First round of shots is on Captain Luke to grease the social wheels? I’ll take a Ketel One or Jame-O plz, thanks! lol
Let’s not become an unruly mob here. At the very least, he has an above-average grasp of standard written English. I think he could make it all the way to the Daily News if he tried.
Too late, the Post already hired him:

“post #4 is a truly impressive work of self-caricature. 10/10, bravo Luke, bravo.”
Many of you guys must remember Dogrufus, the guy who appeared in the playoffs a few years ago and, every day, posted progressively more bizarre negative posts, to which people responded progressively more angrily. Then, one day, he posted something truly bizarre and someone responded, “You have almost become a caricature of yourself.” Dogrufus responded with one word — “Almost?” and it suddenly hit me that he was putting everyone on all along. Captain Luke is Dogrufus. I would bet on it.
“What? Didn’t they like me for what I am? Was I just used? Such a gaping wound in my heart, those news.” – George Clooney
even our message board has fallen apart. Where is Robert Silverman!!!!!
Lol as an observer of the Dogrufus saga, that was some wild shit.
Brand-new Unsung Knick History!
That Time Isiah Thomas Nearly Joined the Knicks…as a PLAYER!
