And I say this as a member of the minutes police sometimes..

Josh Hart has said that very same thing in this video at around the 2:20 mark.

He mentioned those heavier minutes in the regular season has allowed their bodies to be more resilient and now they're mentally and physically prepared to deal with the intensity we're seeing in the playoffs.

When do we get to see Paul Pierce sulking in his robe with no shoes on? I'm looking forward to it.

The Knicks took the Celtics' soul so completely these two games they hurt the franchise's value, the new buyers want to renegotiate because the price yesterday is not the price today.

I need to try and dial it back but, this vibe is strong right now! There's potentially 5 more games left to get two more wins. Odds and maths and all of that is fine and dandy but, the Celtics are not out of this at all. They have come back down 0-3 as a team to force a game seven. They have it in them. Both teams need to play better and still can. The Knicks need to close this out and get us to the ECF.

My favorite is the deuce buckets. A player who has had a down year and was unplayable against Detroit hitting key buckets to help us crawl outta the mud to take a 2-0 lead. Has me on some NY Mentality sht. I love this fcking team.

I'm extremely happy. I'm just trying to put myself in check. This isn't over yet. Having the upper hand is glorious. I'm working up in Rhode Island rocking Knicks gear for the last 5 weeks. Celtics fans had shyt to say every day until recently. :lol: I haven't heard one comment yet the last three days! This is awesome!! I am extremely optimistic but, that comes with some caution. Fat lady has not sung a note yet.

No no no ... his plan is to go down 20 to teach life lessons.

"You play the full 48 minutes."

"Every possession counts"

- Tom Thibidumb at the press conference

Thrilled we are humiliating the Celtics. Thibs has nothing to do with it. Possibly he could take credit for using Josh Hart as the screener after 2 years of watching him get left alone in the corner, but I imagine Hart and Brunson probably figured that out themselves.

Nothing cures a hangover like a little additional drinking, particularly in the AM.

Hope is slowly creeping back into my hardened, blackened, calcified, 48 year old defiled Knicks fan soul.

Haven't done shyt at work today. Slept in until 9. Got breakfast up the street in my Knicks pajamas. :lol: put on ESPN and came in here looking at clips! Benefits of being the boss. I am all in on this Knicks vibe right now. 25 years since we had anything close to this. I feel like I'm in a time warp. We are winning playoff games against the defending champs!! Boston no less!! Fuggin awesome.
