▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
My Keys to the Game
•Play Defense - both in the paint and 3-point line
•Don't be complacent just because of their record - your record is not much better
•Control the pace of the game - Clarkson, Lin and Ellington
•Keep the energy up - Hill needs to be a motor
•Get to the line, hit free-throws
•Keep them of off the charity stripe
•Crash the boards hard - We need to out-rebound them by a lot
•Keep turnovers to under 10
•Return of Linsanity!

Lakers - Knicks Preview Per NBA.com
By NOEY KUPCHAN
| Quote: | While the New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers are two of the winningest franchises in NBA history, they find themselves at or near the bottom of their respective conferences heading into Sunday's matchup at Madison Square Garden.
This marks the teams' first meeting since Phil Jackson signed on to become New York's team president back in March. Jackson coached the Lakers to five of his NBA-record 11 titles during his 11 seasons in Los Angeles from 1999-2011. This game also serves as a reunion for Knicks coach and former Lakers guard Derek Fisher, who played a part in each of those five championships under Jackson.
New York has struggled in the series over the years, dropping 22 of the last 31 meetings. However, Carmelo Anthony scored a combined 64 points as the Knicks and Lakers split two matchups last season, with each team winning at home.
Anthony is averaging 30.1 points on 51.4 percent shooting over his last eight games against the Lakers, and he's reportedly planning to suit up despite a nagging knee injury.
The Lakers (13-34) are in 14th place in the West, but they finally had something to celebrate after snapping a season-worst nine-game losing streak with Thursday's 123-118 double-overtime win over Chicago. Jordan Hill had a season-high 26 points and 12 rebounds as Los Angeles outscored the Bulls 68-56 in the paint.
Wayne Ellington added 23 points after scoring a career-high 28 two nights earlier against Washington.
"We can surprise a lot of people out there if we keep playing like we did tonight," Hill said.
Sitting in the East's basement, the Knicks (9-38) had won three straight and four of five before getting blown out 103-82 at lowly Indiana on Thursday. New York was outscored 50-26 down low and allowed the Pacers to shoot a season-high 53.2 percent.
"It was just one of those nights, we took a step backwards," Anthony said. "We had been playing some very good basketball as of late, so we just want to put this behind us and look forward to Sunday."
The Knicks were held to combined 53 points over the final three quarters.
"No, the team didn't quit," said Tim Hardaway Jr., who banged his knee at the end of the game. "I don't know why you would say that. We didn't quit at all. They were just making shots and we weren't."
The Knicks could be looking forward to getting back home, where they've won three in a row after opening 3-17 there. New York is averaging an NBA-low 91.7 points on its own court.
After playing on two 10-day contracts, Lance Thomas and Louis Amundson were signed for the remainder of the season. Thomas is averaging 14.3 points on 57.4 percent shooting over the last four games.
Amar'e Stoudemire is expected to miss a third consecutive game with a knee injury. Nick Young has sat out the last two for the Lakers with a sprained ankle, leaving his status for Sunday unclear.
Jeremy Lin, who made a name for himself with New York in 2011-12, has since averaged 17.5 points on 50.0 percent shooting in four matchups against his former team. Lin is averaging just 10.5 points for Los Angeles.
The Lakers have dropped 10 of their last 11 road games, including all six in 2015 while averaging 88.8 points. |

Do Metta and LO live in NY again? If so, they could get most of the old gang back together with Phil & Fisher, Kobe in town, those two probably aren't too busy. Shoot, Bynum could pay for dinner since there are banks in every city. I miss 2010  |

BS will DNP-CD Lin just to slight Linsanity and the fans in the stand wearing Lin's NYK jersey.
Tempted to skip church service and watch the game but it'll be bad karma. Sigh. |

TANK-A-THON: SPECIAL EDITION
 vs
| Quote: | Practice Notes:
As the Lakers (13-34) embark on their nine-day, four-game Grammy trip, what do they need to pack with them to maintain the competitiveness they had against the Bulls and Washington Wizards? “Everything that we just had last game,” Scott said. “We have to pack that energy, that aggressiveness, that patience that we had at certain times, that ball movement, that player movement. The one thing we really have to pack is our hard-hat. We have to come with a lunch-pail mentality.”
The first game of the trip is Sunday against the struggling New York Knicks (9-38), which is what concerns Scott the most: “I think the thing that concerns me the most is the fact that they’ve been losing just like us,” Scott said. “It’s like having a wild animal backed in the corner -- they’re going to come out fighting. So we just have to be ready for it.”
Scott on meeting with Kobe Bryant before Thursday’s game: “He was a real upbeat,” Scott said. “We talked for about three or four minutes, then we both went in and he said, ‘I love all my teammates.’ He sat down and watched us go through the meeting and our points of emphasis. Then we gathered again for a second, I gave him a hug and told him I’d talk to him later.”
It’s unclear whether Nick Young will be available for Sunday’s game, as he has yet to return to full-contact practice since spraining his ankle Monday. “He did some shooting today,” Scott said. “He was real light on it. I don’t know if he can run or cut on it. So we’ll have to wait and see.”
Center Robert Sacre had an interesting analogy for the upcoming road trip. “It’s a bombing mission,” Sacre said. “Like coach said, ‘It’s a bombing mission.' We just have to kick butt and take names.” |

The Knicks are 4-2 over the last 6 games. Not saying they're a juggernaut but certainly not the team that lost 16 in a row this year. They have their own new PG in Langston Galloway. |

Finished the OP, I usually have more stats but the game is too early tomorrow (today for me) to update. I tried to make up for it by slightly color-coding the NBA.com Preview. Hope you enjoy.  
Looking forward to a 2nd win in a row.  #ANTITANK

| Would love to see the team go 4-0 on the road-trip and build some chemistry... what's crazy is that... the WC isn't really all that.... if Kobe had stepped up down the stretch in most of the games... and the team not faltering in the 2nd half..... we would probably be talking playoffs right now. |
