Why would they do that?

We are a much smaller market than yall :D
Playoff team in the East (44 wins) ...... and we stink, rebuilding (only 17 wins)

Sure we have Wemby, but not much else around him ( good players but very streak, young, etc).

All night long, every time in the 4th quarter the Knicks took a 2 point lead, refs called a soft foul for Wemby. Also check the FT disparity.

Add a BS jumpball violation now.


Yep. Knicks fans have every right to feel aggrieved and angry.i know Wemby had a wonderful game but Brunson and his team deserved better from the officials.

Silver has an officiating problem on his hands.

And fans are fed up.

32 to 12 FTs
Getting in the penalty with like 7:30 in the 4th to go off of weak foul calls
Every time the Knicks took the lead in the 4th, refs call weak calls for Wemby to tie it up at the line everytime.
Horrible jumpball violation call.

End of story.

Green drops 10 in 2:47 to start the second half. 7 came on the same play; he's just reading what's in front of him.

You've said this a couple of times already, and also said Kings hitting everything yet: Dallas 3/13, Kings 4/11...

Kings have responded well so far this evening. After their last game (very bad) against Dallas.

Gg.

"Knicks fans called him overrated a few months ago"

That part is so cringey though, trying to create a narrative against the opponent based off what "fans" said, you can go online and find any fan saying anything bad about any player if you want. :lol: :lol:

No one should scare of the Suns.

ISO ball is easy to defend in the playoffs.

Because the Spurs were playing through him. They were actively trying to post him up. That would lead to fouls. The Knicks game was let Brunson jack up jumpers.

The only foul call that was legit in the 4th was the one that Hartenstein fouled out on, the two previous calls that tied the game again was so weak and a non-call for any other big.

Bol Bol was right. 8-)
