Ball Don't Lie on the Knicks

  • Photo Gallery: Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg take in a Knicks game

    Actors Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Rosie Perez (she's alive!) and Brooke Shields ate hotdogs and sat courtside to cheer on the lowly New York Knicks during Sunday's matinee game against the Boston Celtics. Word has it the oddball foursome was on hand to film a scene for the new movie "The Other Guys."

    According to Wikipedia, "The Other Guys" is an upcoming 2010 action/comedy film directed and co-written by Adam McKay. The movie, set to star Samuel L. Jackson, "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson, Ferrell, Wahlberg, Eva Mendes and Michael Keaton, is expected to be released August 6, 2010.

    I assume it's a dark comedy if the Knicks are involved.

  • SL: Arenas says Wizards have 'hidden agendas'; VC shoos boos

    Each weekday morning, BDL serves up a handful of NBA-related stories to digest with your rum chica rum chicken.

    Tim Price, NBA.com: "Emotions on the Washington Wizards seem to be boiling over ... The Wizards (3-9) have lost eight of nine games. Against San Antonio they shot a season-worst 33 percent. Perhaps more embarrassingly, they had just as many turnovers as assists (nine) heading into the fourth quarter before finishing with 12 assists to nine turnovers by the end of the game. Gilbert Arenas said players on the team had 'hidden agendas,' noting that eight players on the team are free agents following the season. 'I guess when you start losing everyone wants to start pointing fingers everywhere else,' Arenas said. 'I converted my game to try to get people involved, but at the end of the day, to be honest, this is the same team since three years ago. We added a couple of pieces, but everybody else is basically the same player. I'm sitting here thinking 'Do I have to go in attack mode like I was two years ago to get us over this hump?' I hope not. I hope we're strong enough mentally that we can get over this.'"

    Brian Schmitz, Orlando Sentinel: "Not surprisingly, Vince Carter quickly turned down the opportunity to be, ahem, honored by his former team, the Toronto Raptors, on Sunday. He didn't turn down the chance to beat the Canadian club again and remind Raptors fans of his bittersweet legacy with some live highlights. Carter led the Magic to a fifth consecutive win with a 104-96 triumph against the Raptors, ultimately silencing a crowd that has booed his every return to Air Canada Centre the past five seasons. [...] The Raptors have been celebrating their 15th anniversary as a franchise by honoring former players and coaches with video tributes during timeouts. Given the acrimonious back story of the relationship, the Raptors contacted the Magic to see if Carter might be a willing participant (or target) for the tribute. George Galante, director of communications for the Magic, said he asked Carter if the Raptors could honor him, but Carter declined. 'Why would I want to do it? You heard it out there,' Carter said. 'They came to me. It just didn't make sense. Actually, it wasn't as loud as it has been. It used to be deafening.'"
