The Nets point guard hit a 50-foot buzzer beater to push past the Sixers last night, 98-96. This is why I don’t be on basketball; not because of the sudden swings in victory, but because I have no idea who Devin Harris is. I only bet on Pai Gow and Old Maid. Sadly, there aren’t many Old Maid tables running on The Strip these days. I blame the card counters.
Oh, and Nate Robinson had 41 points as the Knicks beat Indiana. Thanks, Yahoo!, for helping me pretend to care about the NBA. See Devin Harris’ buzzer-beater after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
Gosh, who could have possibly imagined that players on the Knicks would ever act like bratty children to each other? It runs counter to all the discipline and leadership that Isiah Thomas has ingrained into the team. And I never expected Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson, of all people, to get into a spat. Those guys have always been such little angels.

As we all know, the Knicks suck in epic fashion — not merely for their losing record, but for their historically poorly constructed team. That's why, even in a game they won that featured LeBron James, the best highlight is of the game is of undersized, selfish, turnover-prone point guard Nate Robinson attempting to alley-oop a dunk to himself, only to miss the dunk and get called for traveling.
Ladies and gentlemen, your 2006-07 New York Knicks.
Awesome.
There's no way to really sugarcoat this one. Yao Ming is over seven feet tall and just got stuffed by five-nine Nate Robinson. After the game, Tracy McGrady entered Yao's dim holding cell, handed him a cyanide pill, and left the room without a word.
