    Knicks vs Heat IN GAME THREAD

    Too many threads lets try and keep the conversation in one thread. Easier for everyone to post and read, etc.

    Nothing makes me laugh more than when a guy tries to show off and dunk so hard like he is going to shatter the backboard, and then he misses.

    Knicks down by 6 in the 1st quarter, a few turnovers. Can't wait to see all the people saying its over 3 minutes into the game. Still A LOT of basketball to play!

    lin already has so many turnovers and it's only the first quarter, though i guess that's normal

    and now Amare does the same thing as Wade. Don't be an idiot just put the ball in the hoop and stop trying to show off. The goal is to score and win the game not look like a big shot. When you have a chance for an and 1 and you blow it trying for style points, its not very smart.

    This is what I love the most 'bout Lin. He was bond to commit lots of turnovers with the pressure Chalmers is able to put and all the other guys on the Heat.

    But on defense, Lin is going right back at Chalmers trying to put as much pressure as he can. And Lin is not supposed to be a good defender.

    As Lin is being mugged a few minutes ago on the replay Reggie says these words, "Mario Chalmers doing a great job disrupting Jeremy Lin". The mugging by Chalmers occurs on a slow motion replay as he is saying it, but Reggie does not comment on it. Instead he kind of stopped his sentence short and held his breath for a second.

    I did not bet this game, but that's funny s hit to me. I love when announcers refuse to mention the blatant foul. Even better when espn refuses to show the replay though.

    that quarter showed how good the heat's perimeter defense is, surely one of the best in the league. they get in your face so fast, knicks had good ball movement on the last few possessions of that quarter and didnt get a look in, Lin needs to penetrate then dish

    Thats all they need to do. Then they really have to step on it when they get a lead like right now. Novak lights out from 3 right now! Knicks have to keep an eye on Miller, Heat haven't gone to him much but if the Knicks can hit 3's while limiting Miami's chances from 3 they have a great shot at this

    Just cause people thought Heat would win doesn't mean they never expected New York to take a lead at any point in the game.

    One thing to remember is Miami and Lebron the choke artist are not good at closing at games. Knicks keep this one close like they are and they have a great chance to win it. They have settled down a lot since the first few minutes. Lin just needs to be more aware on offense, however defensively he is playing them just as tough. Knicks defense has been solid and Novak from 3 is on tonight which is big!

    Once Lin gets the ball out of his hands, many Knick players are getting one-on-one matchups.

    Fun game so far, lin with 5 turnovers in 14 mins played. I dont think Steve Nash does that on regular basis.
