Lots happened this weekend, and there is a (in the parlance of Francesa) yuge, yuge game tonight against Milwaukee, ok. They threw up a stinker in Toronto when they couldn't make a shot from outside and appeared unprepared for a zone look. Then came home and took care of business against Detroit. The Toronto loss was frustrating but I'm willing to chalk that up to a standard lockoutugly performance since they bounced back well the next night.
Bad news is that Jeffries is out for two weeks, which is really damaging. The guy is quite simply invaluable. Watching Harrelson the last two games shows me that he gives you maybe 40% of what JJ brings.
Amare had some back stiffness--after the domination hes been throwing out, I have a real concern hell regress back.
Carmelo continues to be a shell of himself offensively but is still playing intense defense. Tells me there is something amiss with the wrist, elbow or both.
Lin tweaked his knee but is said to be fine.
Tonight they get new look Milwaukee. This is a big chance to put the 8th seed on lockdown and focus up the standings.
