alright backdoor covers happen, so maybe knicks get a backdoor cover, i don't know, but i'm on heat -10

We are not new to the NBA. On any day, any team can cover against any other team (ok, except the Bobcats). This is why the Heats blow out Orlando worse than they did the Kings.

J-Lin might posterize Lebron tomorrow, if he's not careful. Heat better double team J-Lin, or play zone tomorrow.

Does a break away dunk and Lebron going for a chase down block count as posterized?

Maybe the NBA will give Lebron one of those awards...you know the one, like where you come back years after you graduated from a college and receive symbolic PhD.

Haven't seen so much hype for a regular season game in a while.

Spike will probably fly down to Miami for this one.

Lebron's career in one sentence thus far.

Only if Lebron wants to be posterized while comitting a three-point play.

Thank god this discussion got back on topic. As much as i dislike LBJ, the guy is a beast and can play some D. Lets not forget that aside from the mavs, the knicks havent played any high caliber teams; and lin hasnt been guarded by anyone who can play D(including the mavs). With either lebron or wade on him, i hope this increasingly irritating linsanity simmers a little. I liked the guy at first, but the fact that i have to listen to some idiot commentator talk about him for an entire quarter of a totally different ball game bothers me.

If the knicks win in south beach, great. The nba got legitimately more interesting. But in reality LBJ and company will probably roll right over them like theyve done to plenty of other better teams than the knicks. The guy can usually play when he gives a damn

I was watching the UNLV game (CBS Sports Network), and in the 2nd half they started talking about Lin. It is starting to get a little annoying.

I was thinking about taking Melo over 19.5 points.. If James is on the Lin boy this is just too fukking low line

Rolo1984 · 02-23-12, 06:09 AM

In these type of matches the big guys really hate losing. They couldnt care less to lose to an inferior team with so many games in the season. These matches are statement games i guess.

Anyway should be a fun game.

Would like for it to be a good, close game but see the Heat winning by 12 or more going into the All-Star break...

I'd take the over on that in a second. Even when Lebron guards him in there past meeting he always gets 22+

Should be a good game tonight

Ask lebrick if he has change for a dollar... He would answer "nope, I only got 3 quarters"
