  • I have come here to chew bubblegum and kickass ... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

      Example: Toure' starts and the Knicks go down 8-0. He gets a "-8."
      All it means is that while Murry was in, the Knicks were outscored at least 14-6 (since Murry scored six points). If, for example, they actually scored a total of 12 while he was in the game (six by Murry and six more by his teammates), that would mean that the Knicks were outscored 20-12 during his minutes.

      MJ must not be a hockey fan -- they've used plus-minus forever (although it's also obviously easier to compute in hockey since there's so much less scoring), and it's always been controversial as to how good or valid a measurement it really is.

        0% hockey fan. I do enjoy supporting the Wichita Thunder though as they are a local team. :)

        • Beno Udrih got bought out and now Felton is facing multiple felony weapon charges. Could Murry be in line to see some major playing time?

            • So was Felton just using a "Hand exerciser"?

                You know, Michael Wiggins was in my Calculus 3 class, and was getting an A. Dude did NOT seem to me to be the type to keep a gun in his car, but that's just supposition.

                Anyway, the season is a mess anyway, they should just start Toure and see what happens.

                  • Toure got some decent minutes in the first half.

                    • Got fouled on a Dunk attempt. 2 FG's two turnovers.

                      • On the court right now on ESPN. Knicks playing Golden State.

                        • Had a third quarter buzzer beater on a runner from FT line. Also had a nice block on a Steph Curry perimeter shot. I was watching it while on an exercise bike at the Y. I did a Will Ferrell "I know him!" to my buddy who was with me.

                          By the way, the Knicks suck and give no effort. Carmelo would rather win a scoring title than a Finals title. I really hope Toure gets on a better team with teammates who actually care.

                            I think Melo has been playing well lately. It's the rest of the team that blows (besides Toure of course :)).
