If anything, I feel JB has done the impossible and united the fanbase.
However, this is being outdone by Thibs lol
So true! RIP mags

POR is correct TKKnicks is wrong.
Nah. When your prepared you aren't scraping together wins by one point against a lesser team.

Now you're whining about the margin of victory? We're up 3-1. We're going to win on Tuesday. 4-1 and off to the EC semi finals.

Tha Magic are a much better team than the Pistons. Think about that: Banchero missed 40 games, Wagner missed 20 games, Suggs missed like 50 games and Mo Wagner missed half the season. Imagine your stars missing so many games and you best complementary players out for season and yet they finished just 3 wins below the Pistons. If the Magic and Pistons played each other all healthy, the Pistons would struggle to win a single game. The Magic are being led by 2 6'10 all-star forwards that are very difficult to stop and they have the second best defense in the entire NBA. That is despite their best defender missing like 50games and their best bench player as well.
Magic >>>> Pistons
And while the Boston-Magic game was close througout, the Celtics were really leading the entire way more or less. Magic did a good job keeping it close but one never had the impression they could win. I know some are dreaming up scenarios were we go 7 with the Celtics are take the series....you are all setting yourself up for a big dissapointment. The Magic stay home on every possession, letting Boston go 1 on 1 each time--very good strategy but only applicable because almost their entire team consists of good defenders. We on the other side will be helping out left and right letting White, Porzingis, Pritchard rain down open 3-pointers on us all game long.
brother why u watching the playoffs if you have this defeated mindset? If you don't think the Knicks are playing different defensively in the playoffs then they were in the reg season, idk what to tell you.

If we somehow could play comparable defense though we could win a tough series against them.
It makes no sense to me that beating a team that is struggling with the Magic makes no sense to you
Lmao I guess you just don’t know ball then? But in reality being 3-1 on someone isn’t really “struggling”. And in another realm of reality we don’t play defense like the magic do, this isn’t last years team.

Right, the Melo years were great! Thanks for reminding me.

Too far. He choked against Indiana and he was the worse starting point guard in the league in 2014

JB did force in Game 2 which people didn't like and he has since course corrected on that. Happens.

Yeah I'm not sure who people are arguing with.
Who are the posters that don't like Brunson?
Outside of like Najeem but I don't think anyone takes his dislike for Brunson seriously...

The refs let that game get out of control yesterday. Shroeder is literally hugging OG. But I am happy to see that we were willing to oblige.
I believe that we can beat this team by keeping a 10 point lead from start to finish but I dont think we can blow them out and hold a bow out lead.
They are 1 more guy deeper than us...and I dont think the Thibs will allow Precious to play. We close them out. None of us like this team but I cant deny that they deserve to be in the first round. Just not the second
They are a good team. They are a bobo version of our team from last year, essentially. They deserve everything they have gotten up to this point and I respect them as opponents.
But we're better, by virtue of experience and moving up to the next level talent wise, and should be able to prove that by ending this series.
