seems like pick your poison with Embiid or Harden. Bridges is making it a lot closer than it should be.

2 buckets in h2 he cooled off. Sixers won going away. Not that I expected different vs the Nets.

Imagine people thinking Brunson was at best an okay complimentary player.

Just imagine.

trixstar · 04-15-2023, 06:54 PM

Knicks are a team where I’m always wondering how they’ll keep scoring, yet they do.

regularp · 04-15-2023, 07:02 PM

Mobley is afraid of contact and goes up soft in the paint.

I still can't believe how good he's become. Nobody saw this coming as evidenced by his draft position. He is the epitome of a gym rat.

Those few playoff games sans Luka really opened my eyes. I don't think I projected him to be this good, but the shade thrown by some made me scratch my head. When you factor in his projected salary vs. the rest of the league even if he didn't have this kind of breakout season, Knicks got a steal.

He's going to make a case for best pg in the east in a year or two.

Wow. Did not expect to see Cleveland's bigs getting dominated on the board like this.

duron · 04-15-2023, 07:16 PM

Longtime Knickerbockers fan here. It’s just a joy watching Brunsino play. Is composure a statistical category?

duron · 04-15-2023, 07:18 PM

Randle playing like he’s coked out. Chill out mang.

Andddddd nails a 3 the second I hit post.

And makes another dumb play as I edit.

PKIPP · 04-15-2023, 07:21 PM

Getting a bit F’ing tired of garland getting hit in the face all season on wreckless plays by defenders. That should’ve been a flagrant on Randle idc

Cavs will be lucky to win 1 game. Just want to get swept so JB gets fired, honestly.

Embarrassingly bad offense and he never has this team ready to win big games. I’ve been saying all season this whole get down by double digits thing and come back to win ain’t happening in the playoffs.

Pack it up and get ready for Cancun. Kings warriors gonna be fun

Good call on the o5.5. I owe you a solid.

Still think it's going to be a good series. Probably 7.

I'll never understand people who follow and root for teams all season giving up after 10% of a series has been played.

I still throw up thinking that shmuck drafted Frank over Spida guess they never learned from the Fredrick Vies debacle.

knicks responded well after the cavs went on that run and took the lead. they could have crumbled.

Scottish Punk · 04-15-2023, 07:35 PM

Iso, iso, dribble, dribble, dribble, shoot. Both sides. Do we even run offenses anymore?

kobebeast2020 · 04-15-2023, 07:38 PM

HUGE WIN

Late quarter close game situations in the NBA are terrible. Everyone tightens up and the best ISO wins.

Knicks on the boards were too much; Hart had an incredible game. Grimes / Barrett / Quickely going 3-22 and somehow the Knicks win. Thibs gonna be pumped.

ninjacookies · 04-15-2023, 07:38 PM

Knicks had a good game plan.

They slowed down their game pace tremendously compared to the regular season. They're going to need to play a physical, grind it out type of series to have a chance.
