Still feel the sting from giving the lakers the victory yesterday, but I guess we move on and go to Utah tonight to face a Jazz team with a top-notch home record.
Our old pal Stu Jackson just announced that Renaldo Balkman will be suspended for one game for the flagrant foul elbow he threw at that sissy Laker Sasha Vujacic or however you say his name. Taz will not be available to play tonight due to the 1-game suspension.
I read some of the defenders implying that David Lee was the cause of the loss last night and I urge you to revisit the game. David Lee was one of the players keeping the Knicks in the game. If you’re looking for someone to blame, perhaps look in the direction of the bench.

Tied game with 5.6 remining.
Outlaw hits jumper to tie.
Knicks have played tough to close the game.
No turnovers please!!
Zach is 10-21,
Crawful is 6-24
Not sure I would combine both. One is shooting 48%, other 25%
Peace & Blessings
5.6 left to play
Crawford could not hit his fave shot. Overtime. Rats.
man, craw is icecold down the stretch tonight. fatigue?
That’s 6-25
Peace & Blessings
JCraw off balance, twisting and defended well. He squared up though. And still missed.
Tough shot.
This guy always goes to Jamal.
He’s having a bad shooting night…why keep going to him?
Jesus!!!!
Sit Jamals skinny ass down for a couple minutes.
Let him get his thoughts together.
Damn. A good game goes bye bye. LGK.
LOL! He’s also played 46 minutes.
Damn.
The Knicks lose tonight and it hurts twice as much.
They’ll be spent coming into Seattle.
Man the West Coast has been a mine field for the Knicks this season.
OT doesn’t sound too good. Our guys are tired.
Nate needs a big OT
Nate misses
Aldridge misses, ZBO boards.
81 up, 4 left in OT
Knicks turn it over with another shot clock violation
Balk’s persistent after an Outlaw block.
ZBo hits an open midrange j. 85 – 83 NYK
Aldridge to the line after a DLee foul His 4th.
Wow. Nate throws a pass out of bounds to avoid getting it stolen.
Outlaw again. This time with a dunk. Tough matchup for Lee in the zone down the stretch.
Blazers up 1 with 2 minutes left.
Dude at that point someone should have fouled him hard to prevent the dunk.
Stuff like that gets the crowd and team going.
Fuck keep your chin up!
We’re only in this game because of our rebounding and hustle.
rebounds:
55 – 37 NYK
LGK
Win or lose (of course I prefer a win) this is a good ass game.
BARF, we played decent D. They only had 81 in regulation. Too many mistakes down the stretch.
Crawful must have gotten the word that he’s moving. Just Bloggin’

Knicks with 12 assists to Portland’s 20. Ouch.
Crawford usually has Ice water in his veins.
Tonight he’s as cold as Ice and not willing to pay the price.
True BARF
on 583
Jeffries must get up close on Jacks
Oh Well
Please don’t let Jamal get the shot.
JJeffries with a tentative slide on that play. He was caught stuck in the zone not wanting to leave someone open in the corner for three. Jack’s drive was too easy.
Nate with a great floater to make it a one point game.
Use Jamal as a decoy for the rest of the game.
Nate. The right person shooting the ball this time. Defense.
Knicks can win still.
38.8 seconds left. Knicks down 1. Portland ball.
This team turns the corner after the Nike All-Star Break. We will not be denied.
BTW, I had a dream: Knicks vs Orlando goes 7 games for the East towards the ship.

I guess Jamal is just going to keep shooting huh?
Knicks got two chances to tie and to make it a one point game.
Nate looks shook in the last few.
misses the first free throw and nets the second.
90 – 88 Portland. Blazers ball.
13.7 left. Knicks have to foul immediate and hope the home team loses focus.
nail bitin time…
Trailblazers by 4 with 11 seconds left. Knicks ball.
Jack makes it a 4 pt game with 2 clutch free throws.
2 possession game. 92 – 88. 11.6 seconds left.
We played a tough game.
Nothing to hang your head at.
Not saying it’s a moral victory because I could give a shit about moral voctories
but we played tough.
We’ve played tough this entire trip.
However this game ends, I’m proud of these Knicks they got up today fought, and were on the cusp of victory against an up and coming Blazer team.
These Knicks got nothing to hang their head downs about.
KFLL!
Good Energy, Good Effort.
Athletes must run, slowing down and waiting on Baby Shaq is out.
Peace & Blessing
One of the few owners (Paul Allen) that actually has more money than Dolan.
His payroll is much less that Dolans though.
Just saying…..
