[Blues4everr]

[Spanish Sahara]

[Ron]

Knicks lost again


ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

 

[SHLJ]

That Knicks finish- what an anti climax

 

[djrossie16]

If they had draft picks they would be accused of tanking that was so inept

 

[Vincent Chase]

Don't know how you blame Melo for that. Was one of the reasons we were in the game at all.

That's all on Woodson. No idea why you wouldn't call a timeout.

You realize players can call Timeout to? The blame is on everyone but more-so Woodson IMO

 

[djrossie16]

If Washington can just get Wall and Beal playing every game till season end they'll make some noise

Yes, but in a situation like that you're relying on your coach to make the decision. Everyone was confused as hell.

Coaches job, players are thinking about playing the game.

 

[Vincent Chase]

With Prig now out for a couple of weeks, we better not panic trade for Lowry. I can easily see it happening.

 

[Blues4everr]

I blame Bargnani for his woeful help defense. Hes not horrible 1 v 1 but he refuses to help his team mates on defense.

 

[Ron]

How did Deng miss that?

Kobe’s $24 Million Contract is Actually $10.6 Million After Taxes

According to Breitbart, Bryant’s federal tax rate is 39.6 percent. Add a 13.3 percent state tax and the federal Medicare surtax of 3.8 percent and his total tax rate is 56.7 percent. In total, he’ll pay over $13.8 million in taxes on his $24.4 million contract and walk away with around $10.6 million.

This reality may be why fellow NBA star Dwight Howard left Bryant’s Lakers this year. According to Forbes, Howard, who accepted a lower contract value to sign with the Houston Rockets, will actually make more money than he would have by taking the much higher amount offered by L.A. That’s because, while California has the mentioned tax of 13.3 percent, Texas has none.
Some speculate Jeremy Lin did the same, leaving the Knicks for Houston due to New York’s high taxes.

You should see Baynes instead of Ayres tonight with the way he has out performed him this past week.

you sir Drumroe are a visionary

 

[peternorth]

Tommy going off.

What a joke, apparently it's a foul when you grab the rebound and then swing around to get clear.

let's open this can of worms again.

if cunningham collected the rebound and swung around to get clear, and was called for a foul, would tommy be professional enough to rant in the same way?

 

[peternorth]

and as predicted lakers lose.

i hope we dont win another game for hte season.

bunch of syds.

lakers cannot beat teams with a speedy PG, like teague.

and millsap has always given us problems. always.

never going to get close.

 

[stewie griffen]

Optimistic much...

also nice hat
