Giannis turning into middy GOAT was not expected at all but has me aroused. Think we're a 2nd tier title contender right now but a Bobby trade and a Middleton return away from being in that 1st tier imo.

We'll play either Orlando or Boston at home next Tuesday.

I like how this team is playing.

Or Atlanta. Go Knicks!

We're the top seed and play the wildcard. Atlanta won their group, we won't play them.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

if giannis can hit that midrange shot....and knows he can make that shot....and keeps shooting it once he knows it...and still hits it....

then he can become the greatest of all time from age 30-37

we'll win another title or two

not that im putting any pressure on him tho. im not like that

Holy crap. I just realized that if the Bucks win their quarterfinal at home, they'll be playing the semifinal in Vegas on Saturday, 12/14.

I'm going to be in Vegas that night, for the first time this year...

Is it weird that Connaughton didn’t even play in garbage time?

It's so early but any team with Giannis on it is a tier 1 contender, just look at what he does to dudes

War crime. Never was a reason to employ anyone from Larry Drew's Milwaukee staff.

The Knicks only need to win the 4th quarter by 6 points to take the top seed.

ETA: But that's not going to happen.

Garbage time is to give your young guys experience. Pat is not a young guy who needs experience. It's also to see what they have. We know what Pat brings to the table.

I usually hate Bucks comparisons but looks like he has a case of Jennings syndrome where he is quick as **** but can't finish at the rim against NBA talent. That layup "attempt" was hilarious. He is bad right now but 2 years from now? Who knows. Imma roll with the Brandon Jennings comparison though, seems to have a flair for the dramatic

The difference between him and Jennings is size he is a legit 6’5 with long arms once he gets stronger he is going to dunk a lot of those layups.

Yeah that's what AJ has going for him, he is long. Just isn't good at all right now

Can't believe we played the Pistons again while I'm still mad about the call from the last Pistons game.
