LeBron, a minority owner of Liverpool, might want to bring an MLS team to Miami. Once Cristiano gets a taste of South Beach. ...

Stefan Bondy

Also, I'm in Miami awaiting the highest grossing basketball player in the world, LeBron James.

Stefan Bondy

You're wrong if you think an NYC franchise will help the Red Bulls. They will steal players and I don't see how it can help RBNY attendance.

The Guardian lists Sheikh Mansour's net worth as 20 billion pounds, or 30 billion dollars. m.guardiannews.com/football/2011/…

Stefan Bondy

Move over Mikhail Prokhorov. The richest sports owner in New York is now Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al Nahyan. And it's not even close.

Here's the beginning of my Nets season in review blog series, which kicks off with a look at Andray Blatche's year: bit.ly/17UK2ww

My conference finals predictions: Memphis in 6, Miami in 7.

Tyshawn Taylor

it's easy to say you would wanna be in my shoes .. but everybody ain't built for this ...

Tim Bontemps

Up late working on some Nets season wrap-up stuff that's going to start running on the blog Monday. Think you guys will enjoy it.

Tim Bontemps

Here's the full piece I wrote about Lance Stephenson and Paul George praising Indiana assistant Brian Shaw: m.nypost.com/p/sports/nets/…

Tim Bontemps

Absolutely terrific piece by @Matt Moore on the Knicks, Carmelo Anthony and how their system is unsustainable: cbsprt.co/1894GGT

Tim Bontemps

And Danny Granger isn't Indy's best player, either. A very good player, but clear third behind Paul George and Roy Hibbert.

Tim Bontemps

And he had a pretty rough couple years before this one, too. Pacers were patient and have been rewarded handsomely.

Tim Bontemps

Also, please don't use the "why didn't the Knicks draft Stephenson" thing. Him being in a place like Indiana allowed this to happen.

Tim Bontemps

Stephenson on Shaw: "He gives me the confidence in the game to knock down big shots.”

Tim Bontemps

I should mention when I talked to Lance Stephenson, he credited his development this season to Brian Shaw. Nets expected to interview him.

Tim Bontemps

And, finally, I wonder if Chris Copeland is this year's Gerald Green, a guy who signs a mini-MLE deal this summer and is quickly overpaid.

Tim Bontemps

Sixth, I have no idea what J.R. Smith is going to get this summer. Will be awfully curious. But he did himself no favors with these playoffs

Tim Bontemps

Fifth, I really hope Tyson Chandler was playing through injuries, because he was dreadful in this series. If not, huge issue for Knicks.

Tim Bontemps

My dad wouldn't believe me when I said he wasn't. "He's really great!" my dad kept saying. Couldn't argue with him.

Tim Bontemps

Fourth, my dad watched the game, never watches hoops. Late in 4th quarter, turns to me and says, "Is Stephenson their best player?"

Tim Bontemps

Third, two centers were questioned for the contracts they got last summer: Brook Lopez and Roy Hibbert. Anyone questioning them now?

Tim Bontemps

2nd, bizarre decisions from Woodson. Should've played Copeland more, and should've had JR sitting. He was horrible, especially defensively.

Tim Bontemps

That said, couple of points about the game. First, Knicks fans complaining about refs are silly. The Knicks shot jumpers all game long.

Tim Bontemps

I didn't have Internet access for the second half of the game. Reminded me how much I enjoy being on Twitter watching sports now.

Rod Boone

Spectacular block there by Roy Hibbert, sending Melo's dunk back directly in front of the rim. Exciting game.

Fred Kerber

#Knicks Shumpert had five points in 13 minutes. Then scores nine in 64 seconds

Fred Kerber

Just out of curiosity what is former #Knicks draft pick Andy Rautins doing right now? Lance Stephenson is leading #Pacers scoring if ya care

Tim Bontemps

This double-teaming in the post by the Knicks is silly. They already can't rebound without doing that.

Stefan Bondy

Referees have ruined the playoffs.

Fred Kerber

#Knicks are being outworked and outhustled. And yet they are within six. #Pacers have stunning 18-5 rebounding edge

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Lance Stephenson: 6 rebounds. Everybody wearing a #Knicks uniform: 4 rebounds

Fred Kerber

One other thing #Pacers do as well as anyone: miss free throws

Fred Kerber

Gotta admit, one thing #Pacers do better than anybody: fall down

Fred Kerber

#Knicks again having trouble on boards: #Pacers have 9-3 edge. Knix 1st reb was Smith grabbing 2d missed free throw by Stephenson at 7:45

Tim Bontemps

Points I highlighted: close rebounding gap, make 3's, and get to the rim and FT line. So far Knicks are doing none of them.

Tim Bontemps

Here's the story I wrote on how the Nets -- one of two teams to get more than one win in Indy -- did so: m.nypost.com/p/sports/nets/…

Stefan Bondy

The Nets logo has never looked this good m.nydailynews.com/1.1347984?pmSl…

Fred Kerber

Okay for #Pacers v #Knicks over/under for fans to determine "These refs suck" is 5:29 of second quarter

Fred Kerber

#Pacers pres of basketball ops Donnie Walsh praising George Hill. Does a lot but mainly "on this team, he’s the glue,”

Fred Kerber

#Pacers George Hill has been cleared to play

CJ Watson

Gotta have one of these in this Vegas heat to stay cool!!!! instagram.com/p/Zd6mTpC8MT/

Fred Kerber

#Pacers George Hill still has other steps to complete per NBA concussion policy before clearance

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Frank Vogel on GHill : "Not ruled out not cleared to play. he's a game time decision"

Fred Kerber

#Pacers George Hill is game time decision. More tests today including shootaround

CJ Watson

#Shoutout to my guys at @drinkgt always keeping me hydrated on and off the court!!!! instagram.com/p/ZbwX0uC8Mp/

Fred Kerber

#Pacers PGeorge on winning G6 in Indy: "Here is where we really want to end it & we don’t it could really be up for grabs going there."

Mike Mazzeo

For once, Matt Harvey Day may not turn into No-Decision Day

Fred Kerber

#Pacers George Hill will have more tests later today for concussion

Fred Kerber

#Pacers George Hill still officially day to day according to team

Tim Bontemps

It's hard to see someone clearing the NBA's new concussion protocols in a three or four day period. A week seems like the earliest timeframe

Tim Bontemps

I am not sure I would be ruling out George Hill for the season. Quite premature. Rest of this series? That's a legitimate question.

Tyshawn Taylor

HAPPY G DAY ...to my babygirl .. my big homie ...my goonie goon .. she aggy but I love her to death… instagram.com/p/ZZjXTwDVwR/

David Beckham will retire from soccer, but his star won't stop until he's too old to take his shirt off soa.li/4O9biKH

Stefan Bondy

so he's desert thirsty for the playoffs “@PeterBotte: J.R.: "I'm not worried about Instagram. I'm worried about the playoffs."”

Tim Bontemps

J.R. Smith's response to Rihanna question: "I'm not worried about Instagram. I'm worried about the playoffs."

Tim Bontemps

JR Smith: "I'm not worried about Instagram. I'm worried about the playoffs."

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Roy Hibbert apologizes to women in room then says "we played like pussies"

Tim Bontemps

Tyson Chandler walking pretty gingerly in Knicks locker room. Clearly got banged up pretty good on that late fall.

Tim Bontemps

Chandler is headed straight back to the locker room.

Tim Bontemps

Chandler staying in the game.

Tim Bontemps

Chandler is down. Looked like he might've hurt his tailbone on that fall. Hobbling off.

Tim Bontemps

Looked like an awkward fall for Stephenson that last trip and now he's out of the game. Something to monitor moving forward.

Tim Bontemps

Pacers still within shouting distance, but not sure they're capable of scoring another 10 points in this game, let alone making up 10.

Tim Bontemps

I don't like the Knicks' strategy of doubling Hibbert normally, but hard to argue it against this lineup. He's the only threat out there.

Tim Bontemps

Again, for all the things working against the Pacers, they still are only down 6 with the ball.

Tim Bontemps

Looks like Raymond Felton got his foot/ankle stepped on after diving on the floor for that loose ball. Hobbled off the floor.

Fred Kerber

Yup, "These refs suck" for #Knicks v #Pacers. Biggest surprise? It took until 1:49 of third Q for fans to express that heartfelt sentiment

Tim Bontemps

It's no coincidence that Raymond Felton has come alive in this game when he's primarily being guarded by DJ Augustin instead of George Hill.

Tim Bontemps

The Pacers are shooting 37 percent from the field and 12-for-22 from the FT line, and still trail by just nine. Should be out of this game.

Tim Bontemps

Imagine how good the Pacers would be if they had a bench?

Fred Kerber

#Knicks over limit at 6:21 of third. Normally real reason but #Pacers even with Geroge hitting 2 at 50% 10-of-20

Tim Bontemps

That's an embarrassing call on Hibbert. Clean block. Now both centers have four fouls. Guess that makes it even?

Fred Kerber

#Knicks Tyson Chandler off the hook. #Pacers Sam Young wins award for "Dumbest Foul by a Human Being"

Fred Kerber

#Knicks strategy for second half: Hack-ANY-Pacer. #Pacers 8-of-15 at foul line

Tim Bontemps

Pretty awful third foul there for Tyson Chandler. Can't make a mistake like that in the final seconds of the half.

Fred Kerber

If either team, #Knicks or #Pacers could shoot Miguel Cabrera's batting average, this game would be over.

Fred Kerber

So much for hometown love. #Pacers LStephenson of Brooklyn goes down hard, is hurt, Garden fans cheer

Fred Kerber

#Knicks shooting .321 -- and up 6 on #Pacers who are at .296
