Players love to have their names associated with records. It gives a sense of accomplishment during a career, but there are some records players would want to avoid. The Knicks & Magic realized that last night and considering how bad the Knicks season has gone it is no surprise they would be involved in something like this.
NBA: Derek Fisher Says Knicks Can Win 63 Games Next Year
As a Knicks fan, I would like to believe in Derek Fisher. But when he is talking crazy like this it makes it a little harder. The Knicks have only won 15 games so far this season with just a few left. It is the worst season in the history of the franchise and while Fisher shouldn’t get a lot of blame for it, he does. Who knew back before the season started how quickly things would fall apart, or that Melo really wouldn’t be anywhere near 100% before shutting it down. It is cool to look forward to next season with a positive attitude, but to say a team this bad could win 48 more games next season is more than a stretch.
(Video) NFL: Michael Irvin Literally Goes Insane Watching His Miami Hurricanes Play At MSG
Dallas Cowboys and Miami Hurricanes alumnus Michael Irvin is proud of his ‘Canes. His passion expands beyond the football team, apparently. With Miami coming back from a double-digit deficit to tie it at 53-53 with under four minutes to play in the NIT championship vs. Stanford at Madison Square Garden Thursday, Irvin became the focal point of the broadcast, with his emotions being more than a little obvious.
(Photos) NBA: Scottie Pippen Really Opens Up About What Happened When Michael Jordan Retired The First Time
When Michael Jordan lost his father to murder after some cowards attacked him during the summer of 1993, he was forced to look at life different and temporarily at least he lost his love of basketball. He announced his retirement and the entire sporting world was shocked. Obviously we all know how the stories ends now with MJ coming back and winning three more titles and solidifying himself as the GOAT. What we didn’t always know was how his teammates felt and what went through their heads. With the 20th anniversary this week of Jordan saying the two magic words of “I’m Back”, Pippen took some time on twitter to open up about those times and give us an inside look to how everyone, including MJ was feeling at the time. Check the gallery!
(Video) NBA: Lebron Goes Crazy After Iman Shumpert & JR Smith Hook Up For Mean Alley Oop At MSG
Knicks fans, I hope you all realize that the Cavs came to MSG and beat us down 101-83, with THREE of our former players helping hand us our ass! I am happy to see Shump & JR enjoying their career’s and winning in Cleveland, but don’t forget about Mozgov as well. Anyway, in the fourth quarter this afternoon, Shump & JR gave us something to remember them by when they connected on a alley oop that brought the crowd to their feet like they were still playing for the Knicks. It is safe to say Lebron was impressed! I am sure it was somewhat emotional for both players since it was their first time back in the Garden since the trade, but they made the most of it.
(Video) NBA: James Harden Almost Crosses Knicks Pablo Prigioni Out Of MSG!
Sheesh! James Harden made Pablo Prigioni look his age last night when he hit him with a crossover that made Pablo look like he was on skates. Harden made the jumper as well to add insult to injury but in Pablo’s defense, he really had no chance in hell at stopping someone with the skills and speed of Harden.
