-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

but then again, if they can't beat those teams...why even make it?

do you rest your starters and risk losing that top seed -- and help your old mortal enemy? if they go for the win, they have a better chance of facing utah in the opening round.

I guess you always want to make the playoffs and it provides a positive benefit in signing D12 I'm all for it. From a contender standpoint I'm not sure it matter that much.
11. "They lose the draft pick if they don't make it, right?" In response to Reply # 9
It wouldn't be a great pick, position wise, but it'd give them a chance to inject some new blood into the team with some upside. That and that it will increase the possibility of Dwight re-signing definitely point towards making the play-offs the better outcome. I think y'all make it regardless.
17. "Eh, then the play-offs is still the better outcome" In response to Reply # 15
I know and understand that some Lakers' fans just want the season to be over, but there's no upside in having a team built like this not make the post-season.
18. "to that point tho" In response to Reply # 17 Wed Apr-10-13 01:25 PM by LegacyNS
there's no point in this team hanging around for 5-6 games tops in the postseason either but if it helps in other areas great.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <---- 5.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dlgiritpmfo

16. "Probably not. Which I think is better." In response to Reply # 0
If you tell Dwight, "It was a bad year with a coaching change, too many injuries, and lots of adjustment...we'll come back better next year" rather than getting smashed in 4-5 games, I think it's better.
20. "at this point though...playoffs are a preview of next season" In response to Reply # 16
this roster isn't gonna change that much if dwight stays...
if yall think they can't do shit in the playoffs...how different is next year gonna be? they old and kobe has been about as healthy as he's gonna be again. i don't see them magically getting breaks on the wear and tear front doing it again.
i feel like they have a puncher's chance against anyone.
21. "well 1st off you'll have a fully healed, in shape Dwight from day 1" In response to Reply # 20 Wed Apr-10-13 01:56 PM by LegacyNS
Hopefully, the same will be true of Kobe, Nash, MWP, & Pau.
2nd, don't forget Jordan Hill is out. He young, he can rebound & protect the rim w/ D12 and maybe he'll gives us leverage to ship Pau & get 1 or 2 younger perimeter players.. Earl Clark could continue to improve.
I could see the Lakers trading Pau & MWP potentially next year since both have expiring contracts..

I'm ready for the inevitable "worst disaster in sports history" stories and the "Kobe missed the playoffs with a team Bron woulda somehow won 83 games with" posts.

you and O_E had me start for y'all did in fact reach it's fundraising goal on Sunday after the Clipper game.
With my Boeing connect, you guys should have enough in there for a Duvall-Apocolyspe-Now air-fleet to ride over Staples Center blasting 'Flight Of The Valkeries' with that Mike Brown 'post-game Mo Will dunk press-conference' giggle looped over top of it as per your request.

For the millionth fucking time.
They probably should have jocked Phil the instant that they made their moves but honestly I really, really don't think it would have made a significant difference.

Bernie didn't get all the jobs he did in this league for this long by not knowing how to play the game.
The LA Lakers were never firing their coach & passing the reigns of this team to Bernie Bickerstaff for a full season no matter what happened in those games.

the rest are Ls
Hopefully MEM takes the night off vs the Jazz.
Either way it'll be close. I'd lowkey prefer the Lakers to get in in. Mainly because the might be able to handle the Spurs and make it more competitive.
46. "most would be thrilled to see the lakers go on a run w/out kobe" In response to Reply # 41
strictly speaking other than kobe and 99.8% of their fans, i don't have a problem with the lakers. i have always really liked nash, enjoyed watching pau, had fun watching artest and appreciated howard even if he's not my favorite personality. their going on a run would be a huge boost to any kobe hate 'genda.
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
