If we’re the 3

We want the 2 bc bucks are a bad road team.

This is the type of Knicks fan that gets you in trouble …

This team at 85% healthy (Randle with some limitations, but OG full go, Mitch at rehab strength) should be an even match for the likes of the Bucks or Sixers (with Embiid). I don't expect the Cavs, Heat, Magic, Pacers to have an edge on us.

I think the Bucks are vulnerable. They get wrecked by guards, they have Doc coaching, the team is old.

I feel the 7th and 8th seeds right now are serious issues too. Miami has Butler going super saiyan in the playoffs, and Joel Embiid is about to return for Philly.

My fear list is
Celtics
*large gap*
Magic
Heat
Sixers
Bucks
Pacers

Thanks Zion…1.5 back of the bucks. Gotta beat Spurs out the gate.

lol we could've had dejounte murray for cheap and instead we went after f0uni3rovich and burks

He looked pretty good but got a little lucky at the end

Dunno

Seems kind of wannabe ish

But not disagreeing really

I was surprised by White’s D there — isn’t he good on that end lol? Looked like not very good

Murray will come down to earth again. Bogdanovic had 18 points in 16 minutes yesterday. It’s the NBA, players get hot. We don’t win many games in either the Bucks or Celtics series. They’re the ones with top level talent and that’s what wins in the playoffs. We have Brunson and good role players. Let’s not get carried away.

I assume you are referring to a fully healthy knicks squad. In which case I agree. Actually I would go even a step farther and say a fully healthy knick squad would have even odds with the Celtics. This Knick team, if healthy throughout a season wins 60+ games and fights the Celtics for the top seed.

As long as KP is healthy, that Celtics team is a special king of monster.

I like how the Knicks match up if healthy

I think the key is to somehow make KP ineffective. Thibs is going to have to take away something from Boston's attack.

You are going to want to wind up with Jrue trying to score on our center as a best case scenario.

[stuporman]

One game back in the loss column to the Bucks plus one game left to play against them and one game in hand with 10 games to go...it's right there.

how cheap were the rumors? I always heard Atlanta was trying to gouge people to make up for how much they paid SAS.

Anyway, it was an ugly game that featured OT, the Hawks won, and the Celtics are no pushover, but hot damn Murray took 44 shots for 44 points. And some guy named Vit Krejci played 35 minutes, took 1 shot, had 3 rebounds, 1 assist and fouled out?

He hit another game winner.

They wanted just two picks. That’s pretty cheap for an all star

I’m buggin cuz he hit a game winner after putting up an inefficient night ? Good for him, but doesn’t mean it would have been good for us.

Murray trade means no Deuce breakout, no Donte and Josh big contribution for a black hole on offense

Even if Burks and Bogey inconsistent play they aren’t getting in the way of team chemistry or player development

i dont even like dejounte like that, but only pointing out he took 44 shots to get 44 while ignoring he hit a game winner against the best team in the league is crazy to me. thats why i said you bugging. 2nd time they took down boston this week too.


donte overrated as hell on this board. he's shooting 40% from the field since the all star break. solid player but nothing to go crazy for and never had a good playoffs.

deuce still gets mins as backup pg/sg so i dont know how this means no deuce breakout. and burks def gets in the way of team chemistry when he goes tunnel vision mode lol

Thanks Zion…1.5 back of the bucks. Gotta beat Spurs out the gate.

This is getting real now because we face the Bucks one more time.

Win that game and we might be second seed if they lose one or two more games they should be winning.

At the moment, we're taking of business and winning the games we should win and they are not.

I’d rather keep the 3rd seed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want no parts of Miami because they’ll definitely injure one of our players at some point in that series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll go down to Miami and stick my foot up Bam's ass

[Kidknick!]

The 2 is within reach. Gotta handle business. One thing about Thibs is that he's gonna keep his foot on the gas.

Hopefully OG makes it back in the next few games.

[Spandau]

I’ve got tickets to that April 7 game against the Bucks at Fiserv Forum. I didn’t realize how important a game it was going to be. Just gotta keep rolling ‘til then.

Heat are tested. You need four great games to beat them. I have them second and then the large gap.

It was a mistake not to do it for two lesser 1st picks
