Response To No Moral Victories

During the entire Knicks vs. Celtics playoffs series, The Campus Socialite (Knicks) will square off against Dueling Couches (Celtics) in a trash talk showdown. We’re taking this rivalry from the courts to the blogs.

Those scumbag New Yorkers obviously are getting nervous over there in shit city that they feel the need to defend an 0-2 team in the playoff that are most likely going to lose Chauncey Billups and Amare for game 2. The responded to our No Moral Victories post.

Here it is:
Under normal circumstances it would suck to write a post after losing two consecutive playoff games by a total of 4 points. Nobody likes to lose and there is definitely no such thing as a moral victory in the playoffs. But shit, we played our asses off last night, Melo did EXACTLY what I said he’d do, dominated an inferior team. There isn’t a player in the NBA who can guard Melo when his jumper is falling like it was last night. Plenty of New Yorkers are playing the “if we only had our starters” game and it may even be true that losing an MVP quality player for the most important game your team has played in ten years is less than ideal. More so than that though, we SHOULD have beaten the defending Eastern Conference Champions for the second game in a row last night. We out-played them, had a lead in the final minute and just couldn’t seal the deal. The unfortunate excuse of an NBA basketball player that is Jared Jeffries has graced us with his incompetence once again. He teased us with a dynamic driving layup to take the lead in the final minute only to completely blow the game on the final two important possessions. The coaching mistakes were evident, Carmelo MUST come off of Delonte West and double Garnett in the post and Dantoni is directly to blame for not making that known. Also, in his post-game presser Mike D said “Melo was gassed and couldn’t chase Delonte into the backcourt on the final play”. THEN TAKE HIM OUT AND HAVE SOMEONE FRESH MAKE THE FOUL!!! We are fouling on purpose anyway and could have brought Carmelo back in the game after the first free throw. I wanted to see, for once in the past 2+ seasons, Dantoni actually win a game by outcoaching his counterpart and now I have no faith that will ever happen.

It is going to take an infusion from THE Garden crown on Friday night to bring the Bockers back into this series and that is exactly what we are going to get. The place is going to be rocking, you will feel it through the television. People in Boston will be drinking discounted beers in their mom’s basements and screaming at the tv in horror. They won’t understand what is happening, their hated NY fan base showing up and making a difference in the game? WOW. We don’t need bad calls and dirty players to win, yea im talking to you KG and Big Baby. It amazing what these guys get away with and then scream and cry whenever they hear a whistle. Bunch of bitches on that Boston team and I “CANT WAIT” (Bart Scott Voice) to take them out of the playoffs just like the J-E-T-S did to Tom Brady and his soft bunch of pussies in January.

The Answer Gets An Answer

During the entire Knicks vs. Celtics playoffs series, The Campus Socialite (Knicks) will square off against Dueling Couches (Celtics) in a trash talk showdown. We’re taking this rivalry from the courts to the blogs.

Remember when our own Answer ranted about this

“Ummm so I just got done reading this little battle between DC and Camp Social Fuck and I’m checking into the game here. Now I’m not doing it because I have some long rant and rebuttal to their stupid fucking article about the 90′s, I actually only have one thing to say (and I’ll take this moment to say a few other things.)” More

Well the Campus Social Fucks responded:
First was a response by someone called “The Answer” which ironically only left me with questions, like who allowed this clown to actually publish something on their site, and why everything he says contradicts itself to the point that I don’t know what the hell this dude is trying to accomplish. My time spent on replying to “The Answer” will be limited simply because I have better shit to do. In response to you calling us “Camp Social Fuck”, that sounds like the most awesome place ever, and being that you probably can’t afford a lawyer I am going to go ahead coin that phrase, and make a t-shirt out of it.



Then on to your actual commentary about the game I will say the following; I find it funny that you feel Rondo (can’t shoot), Jeff Green (bum), and Big Baby (mush) lead you to a level of confidence in the future. The fact that you are counting on a draft pick and the hope of a free agent, doesn’t sound very promising either.

To your points on defense, and the Knicks lack there of, we have held your Boston Celtics under 100 pts two games in a row. I think our defense has been decent enough. And to demonstrate how contradictory your ignorant arguments are, you first mention how D’Antoni will be fired, and then say how we wont ever win a championship because of his game plan. Good point dude. Well thought out.

You compare the Knicks to the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks don’t have Melo or Amare, they have Josh Smith. Relax on that comparison kid.

The Knicks were by far the more effective team in the half court offense, it was Boston’s offense that all came from their running game. If you have watched the Knicks in this series or prior to the playoffs, you would know that with the addition of Melo and Billups we have transformed them from a running team to a more half court offense. Which makes your statement about how the knicks running style offense will never win in the playoffs, irrelevant. Lastly, RAY ALLEN might be the best shooter ever, but he was only open because Garnett tripped Toney Douglas, and the ref didn’t call it because you blew him before the game.

Im out.

Another Reason to Hate New York... The Knicks


During the entire Knicks vs. Celtics playoffs series, The Campus Socialite (Knicks) will square off against Dueling Couches (Celtics) in a trash talk showdown. We’re taking this rivalry from the courts to the blogs.

For all of those who aren't familiar with DuelingCouches.com we've have been very outspoken about how the Knicks, Carmelo Anthony and the aura surrounding the gulag known as Madison Square Garden to be the most overrated and overhyped franchise in the NBA.

First off the Knicks and the hype surrounding the Carmelo Anthony trade was absolutely ridiculous. Do I agree with the trade? Absolutely. I feel it was a real good move for them now and long term. They gave up Wilson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, the Knicks 2014 first-round draft pick, the Warriors' 2012 second-round pick, the Warriors' 2013 second-round pick and $3 million in cash for Anthony and Chauncey Billups and some scrubs. Who would have thought that the 2nd most important player in the deal would be Billups, behind Amare Stoudemire? Carmelo is a nice piece, however people (idiot New Yorkers) believing this team would be a contending team rather than a happy to be in the playoffs team is retarded.

Carmelo Anthony is an outstanding player, no doubt, but the real leader of this team is and will always be Amare Stoudemire. As we saw in game 1 against the Celtics, the Knicks were dominating the Celtics when Amare was the primary scorer and Billups was the main ball handler. As soon as Melo decided to "take over" the game he showed Knicks' fans exactly who they got, which is a ball hogging moron who cares more about his perception then winning game. In the last 11 possessions of the game, Amare didn't get the ball, while Melo went 5-18. That is absurd considering Amare was 12 for 18 in the game and dominating in the paint. You can put some blame on Mike D'Antoni who got completely outcoached by Doc Rivers in the second half, or even that Billups got injured in the final minute, but if your so called "Batman" wants to bring his game to superstar level he needs to pass the ball, instead of tough fade aways or a emotional offensive foul. You want to see how it's done, the Knicks only half to look across the court to a man named Paul Pierce who gave up the final shot and let Ray Allen be the hero. Carmelo cost the Knicks game 1, a winnable game, but instead they are going to play tomorrow in Boston down 0-1 and without their former All Star point guard, when all "Batman" had to do was let Robin take them home.

We shouldn't be surprised about the Knicks overhyping something though. Look at what they do with Madison Square Garden. How is that place so special when the only thing that happens is losing? Really, it is just sad at this point that they even call this Celtics/Knicks games "rivalry games". Paul Pierce said it best "maybe this will be a rivalry when I retire".

We were at the game and the whole time without even looking at shirts or jerseys you could tell who the scumbag Knick fans were. They are loud, obnoxious and are completely entitled for no real reason. If a Knicks fan can tell me how they have been relevant since Willis Reed came back into the game, I'd be shocked. You know what the Knicks are known for in the passed 30 years? Reggie Miller, and them choking (both on the court, and Sprewell). During the whole game they were popping their Stephon Marbury and Penny Hardaway jerseys (I know, that's the most ridiculous thing in the world, that would be like us Boston fans rocking a Vin Baker Jersey or dressing up like Rick Pitino), so it was unbelievable to see how humbled they got when Ray Allen's shot tickled the twine to win the game.

So in my closing statement in this rant, I just want to give the Knicks a big thank you for giving us game 1, we will need the extra time to rest going into round 2.

You can go to Campus Socialite to hear thier rant against the Celtics, and check back the day after every Celtics vs. Knicks game to hear both sides of thier "series".
