Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

ROY = All-Star X2

by ChrisB803 on Jan 31, 2008 2:35 PM PST

OK, here's the scoop everyone: Hate to ruin the suspense, but Roy IS an All-Star reserve.

Book it.

Now the big question is... Will he play in BOTH games?

(And no, there is no link to a source on this one. It comes straight from the higher realms, of which there will be no names and identities are kept secret by use of a paper bag with a giant question mark on the front)

doubt it

I doubt he'd play both games, he needs rest. He'll come to the big dance and let someone else play the rook/soph game

mark twain is correct

The higher realms told me so.

will you banish yourself if you're wrong?

Gosh we'd hate to lose your colorful insights if you're wrong about Roy. I hope you don't pull a fatty on us if the higher realms are pulling a fast one.

Nature bats last.

BROY

Barkley called it a no brainier. Also, David West, good for him. Also, the NBA hates the warriors.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
