How can Knicks fans wear Jordan shoes?

They aren't playing loose. There is no flow to their offense and the person that has the ball is the one that ends up shooting a contested 3 pointer.

SGA and Chet need to step it up if they want to beat the Pacers who are playing focused.

Am I so glad the NBA is going to NBC. I just can’t stand watching SAS. He’s nothing but a loud mouth.

OKC is tight/scared and playing Thibs type basketball

Fetal position

Too early to say how serious his injury is.

That is 100%
Without a doubt
A type 4 Achilles tendon tear at the least
He’s done for all of next year and a bit of the start of the following season
It’s worse than tatum’s

Im no Doctor, but I so it in slow mo, and I could almost see the pop.

Do you need to be reminded what PJ Brown did to our Knicks back when we had a championship team during that playoff run?

This game is a perfect example of why you need a bench that gets burn throughout the season. Players go down and other players step up.

I still think they find a way to win it.

They have no point guard to run their offense.

They have 2 ...Mcconnel and Neimhardt

What’s your point?

3pt shooting for OKC is absolutely horrible. Can it be that bad in the second half?
