The Knicks probably hope they don't play the Celtics in the playoffs. They are too predictable; they surround 4 guys on the perimeter and let whoever is open shoot the 3. All teams have to do is get them off the 3 point line, it's not that tough to solve in a 7 game series.
I don't believe the Knicks have some sort of edge of Mia, still think Mia is the team to beat in the East and the Knicks have to play tremendous basketball in order to have a chance.
But what I don't agree with is how you can talk up the Celtics and be confident with the way they looked so far?
Knicks are without their second best scorer who provides an interior presence.
Meanwhile KG looks done, Pierce is getting floored ever other week and Rondo still can't shoot. Not to mention you're best clutch shooter is now in Mia.

This current roster without those 2 won't get it done. Too much scoring needed from 1 individual.
Didn't the last game against the Heat show otherwise?
Chi beat Mia in the regular season without Drose. It doesn't mean anything...
Teams tend to underestimate the other team when the other team is missing their best player. Stop putting so much stock into 2 regular season games.
The Rockets blew us out, do you think they can beat us in a 7 game series?
The Knicks are looking good so far but you guys need to stop acting like we're better than Mia until we prove it in the playoffs.
