Re: new york knicks what a bunch douchebags...
didn't the clippers tank a few games in the 05-06 season to get in position for denveR? not sure how that's different than this.

don't get me wrong.. im not judging/criticizing the clippers like you are doing the knicks.. im just saying that it looks like a tank job when the clippers best player plays under 30 minutes. sam and chris didn't play at all yet they're ready and fresh for denver. i could be wrong, but i just remember the clippers getting a little criticism during that time.
here's a link of april 22nd, their first game against the nuggets http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=260422012

Re: new york knicks what a bunch douchebags...
what's funny to me is that the knicks gave all 20k of their fans free food... only to tank the end of the game. pretty ironic to me.

Re: new york knicks what a bunch douchebags...
I don't even care anymore. Whatever happens, happens and that's it. The Clippers better just work with whatever pick they get and make the best of it.

kevin garnett, ray allen, and paul pierce didn't play. you don't really have anything to complain about.

no **** they didn't play...that's why the knicks were actually winning....they were leading and then they put in their bench players....

so? playoff teams can rest their starters for their advantage but lottery teams can't do that same?

the knicks, deliberately lost a game with no other purpose than to get the worst record possible....the grizzlies, knicks, and especially the heat do not deserve a top two pick....
i hope the clippers and minnesota get the first two picks....neither team has tanked and have tried to do their best regardless of how hopeless this season has been....

they aren't two different things at all. both are intentionally resting players to gain an advantage over other teams. and no they didn't intentionally lose the game, they just put in their backups.

Re: new york knicks what a bunch douchebags...
Minnesota are worse in my eyes than the Knicks, the Heat or the Grizzles in regards to tanking. Last year they pulled the most obvious tank job in history with Mark Madsen taking 7 threes in one game and not making any of them. They also sat KG in the last | |
