This is a good idea. I know some of the college coaches hate the one and dones (Boeheim has been very vocal in that area which is ironic cause Melo was 1 and done). Coach K has used them well. Same with Pitino. But a lot of the one and dones could care less about the school and repercussions of accepting gifts (see what’s going on with Kansas assistant and Zion Williamson’s recruitment)
Pelicans are good, y’all. Fun team to watch, too.
Tanking is like taking a Greyhound bus cross-country. Sure, it may eventually get you where you want to go, but it’s messy and unpleasant and uncomfortable, it stinks, the entire time you’ll be wishing you weren’t there, and not everybody along for the ride is going to make it to the end. - Quote stolen from Deadspin
Nice to see the officials are up to their old Knick hating tricks.
Them sucking as bad as they did jut ruined our shot at a perfect season.
It's BS.

That much closer to our choice of Zion, Reddish Barrett or Romeo Langford

I mean, whichever one of those guy's fits best with Durant...I'm good with.

So Barrett or Langford since Knox and KD would be interchangeable as a 3 and 4
Knicks arent getting shit. Durant is signing in Miami with Kawhi.
Damn, I missed a good game...smh

Spitting on someone is the weakest damn move you can make, but I would rather cp3 just have swung rather than that dirty ass eye poke.
Brandon Ingram is a bitch for escalating the situation and jumping in and throwing a punch when cp3 and rondo were banging. I wish Carmelo would’ve hit him for that.

I missed the entire game. I just watched the replay. Ingram definitely started it. Man, they better be glad it was Eric Gordon out there instead of Gerald Green...lol. All hell would have broken lose. Last year when 7'0" Dieng shoved CP3, Green threw his a## in the stands. No telling what he would have done to skinny Ingram.

Melo is one of CP3s best friends and supposedly had gang ties from Baltimore. When Ingram sucker punched cp3 I was really expecting Carmelo to retaliate. I was disappointed. Lebrons best friends were on the other team, would’ve been hilarious if he fought on cp3s and Melos side.
I would love to see that happen to Dwade with Haslem in the general vicinity.

Not having cap space is a *****. Take it from a knicks fan.

Melo only likes hitting Jared Jefferies. Thats really the only fight i remember him in.

Sorry, but Rondo’s straight left is way more impressive than that smack you’re calling an uppercut.
CP3 has been dirty for YEARS. And I don’t think Rondo spit on him. Carmelo accidentally spit on CP3.

Rondo got the first sucker punch, then Paul gave him a two-piece without the biscuit. According to Skip, Rondo had blood in his mouth.

CP3 told the truth....Rockets just sent the league office this video of him spitting
He deserved every bit of that two-piece.

Rondo’s punch was NOT a sucker punch. It was simply the first punch. You clearly don’t know what a sucker punch is.

noun: sucker punch; plural noun: sucker punches; noun: suckerpunch; plural noun: suckerpunches
1.
an unexpected punch or blow.
That's the Dictionary's definition of a sucker punch. Rondo gave an unexpected punch to CP3...just like he unexpectedly spit in the man's face. He's a bum that got served a two-piece because he was in his feelings because Paul was trash talking him all game while busting his a## (28 &10 in 30 mins) on the court. Its the same reason why Brandon Ingram got mad at Harden...he was embarrassing him on the court.
Oh yeah, you saw the first part of the two-piece (the uppercut), here is Paul's second landing...

How is it unexpected???? Paul smushed his hand into Rondo’s face. A retaliatory punch is totally an expected result.

...and I don’t have any love for either guy. Yes, that connection on Rondo’s nose was awesome. And Brandon Ingram is a dope.
Alls I’m saying is that wasn’t no sucker punch.
When are the suspensions coming?

Rondo didn’t sucker punch him. He spit on him which is despicable but he didn’t sucker punch him. The second cp3 put his finger on his face he should’ve expected a punch.
Either way they both fight like shit. Looked like a typical rec center fight.
Woj - Sources: NBA suspensions – Brandon Ingram 4 games; Rajon Rondo 3 games; Chris Paul 2 games.
Knox out 2-4 weeks with a sprained ankle. Will be re evaluated in a week.
Trae Youngs 35pts and 11 assists make him the first rookie since Curry to have 35 and 10 in a game.

Sounds fair to me.

Rondo still didn't get what he deserves. Will be interesting to see the next matchup between these 2.
