Brooklyn to the Durantula: Don't Shoot Threes

My brother Joe moved to Brooklyn a month ago, and caught his first Knick game last night, which happened to coincide with the Sonics' sixth win of the season. This is what he had to say: "I watched the future of the Seattle Sooners dispatch the Knicks last night at the Garden to the chorus of 'fire Isiah!' Talk about an unhappy throng. But, I tell ya, Jeff Green and Durant, aka green and gold, brought it. If Durant would ever figure out, like he did in the second half, that he has a lights-out mid-range game and should never shoot another 3 — ever — he could be an all-star now. I've never seen a 19-year-old get superstar treatment from the refs like that. And how 'bout Ridnour and Collison? The honkeys represented big time last night. Even Nate Rob and Jamal Crawford brought their a-games. 'Twas a mighty fine night to be a Seattlite at the old MSG.
