In Mike Bibby We Trust?…Fuck.
Its not like the Knicks had Magic Johnson running the point and lost him to a brutal knee injury. We’re still talking about replacing 145 year old Baron Davis here. But he actually played pretty well this series, and the fact of the matter is, the drop off between any point guard and Mike Bibby is an astronomical, almost catastrophic gap. I mean like any point guard on the planet.
He’s a dead ringer for Verne Troyer. His game on the court looks like a half melted candle running the point. If I was Toney Douglass and I was being called Mike Bibby’s back up, I’d probably just retire on the spot. Point is, this Knicks were in way over their head with B Diddy at the point – so things are infinitely worse now that Bibby is running the show. But who knows. Maybe he digs deep. Returns to the form of when he was the #2 overall pick to the Grizzlies. Maybe he gets a pep talk from C Webb about the time his Kings almost knocked off the Lakers in the middle of their dynasty. When you need a miracle to beat the Heat as it is, whats the difference of asking God for an even bigger miracle, right?
Actually scratch that. God is probably running through his checklist of miracles right now like “Alright, took care of the Rangers in game 5 by making that black guy hit someone in the face with his stick, whats up for tonite…Looks like Knicks fans want a game 5 win against Miami? Ok I can do tha…wait a fucking second they’re starting Bibby? Bahaha take a hike Dolan. Guy’s a half melted candle.”
Prove me wrong Bibby. Prove God wrong. Steal one more game so we get another night of basketball at the Garden.
Actually, the +/- numbers from this series have shown that the Knicks are actually statistically better with Mike Bibby on the floor over Davis against the Heat.
giantsfan, that can be attributed to a wide variety of reasons — correlation is not causation. point is mike bibby is terrible, and the fact that the knicks are turning to him in an elimination game is just not a good look for them. let’s just hope carmelo and one-hand amare can carry the team.
he looks more like a disgruntled albino transvestite than a half melted candle in my opinion
Never gonna happen
you don’t like basketball, shut up
how bleak is it to be a fan of a team that can only step out of mediocrity if they trade a player they just signed for 100 million? Not sure how Lin fits in, considering that once he had a good week he started attempting about 15 fgs every game. 20 shots for Melo, 15 for Lin, 20 for amare if they want to stay happy. I wonder how this will work out.
