Call me Nostradamus but I already know what Bisme gonna post on May 12 th or the latest at May 14th after Celtics sweep

I quote “Nice series Knicks fans , see you all next season “

[Butch718]

Celtics in 5.

I will enjoy the glow of Brunson’s game winner for a couple of days though.

[ArksNetsSince99]

Celts in 4.... at least Thibs will be axed when that happens.

If it’s Celtics in 5 or 6 and this way Thibs deserves extension I’m all for it

[bronxknicksfan1]

I have the Celtics repeating this year…but we going 7 games

[cgf]

Well it's the series we've been bracing for months and you've gotta be nervous against the defending champs...and they'll probably handle us in 6 or 7...but it's hard not to be excited to see how we stack up with our full top 7 healthy, proper rest, and Thibs pulling out all of the stops. Think both 2nd round series in the east will surprise some people, the way ORL / DET / IND surprised folks in round one.

That penultimate game was close til we gassed even without Mitch. While that final RS game was just one of the better games of the season, and both teams should be fitter than they were for that one...Robinson in better shape, Karl / OG / Hart having gotten to rest their knicks, plus Horford being back on the court for Boston and Boston's knee being in better shape...so hopefully the basketball is even better, only with a slightly different final result

[cgf]

Knicks are going to win 4 straight series against teams who "owned them in the regular season"

[durden_tyler]

Celtics in 6. Unfortunately, i don't see an upset happening. Anyway, we have to get the Cavaliers vs Celtics East Finals or we'll never know if the Cavaliers are legit.

Totally agree. Lakers in 5.

[Maury2423]

Raptors in 4

I’ll tell you how you stack up , Celtics gonna sweep you with couple 30+ points blowout’s and couple 10+ points wins

This thing will never be close at the end of the games

You underestimate Celtics by a lot while overestimating Knicks tremendously

[KnicksGadfly]

Tbh, I'm not too optimistic about the Knicks this series. Surprised so many people saying Celtics in 6.

We were bailed out by Brunson in Detroit, but KAT has been super underwhelming and that's not going to cut it. The bench was disappointing and I think Thibs was bailed out too.

[Wolfgang630]

Isn’t this what the Knicks were built for? Isn’t this why they got OG and Bridges for Tatum and Brown?

Avi bet? Or will you refuse to step up like that Boston fan who was so confident they wouldn’t lose a game til the ecf before the playoffs started?

[okboomer]

Boston will roll.

Honestly you was bailed out by Bickerstaff playing Tim Hardaway Junior, take him out and replace with anybody else and the series is 3-3 right now

Now I know why Cavs fans was so happy when they fired him

...

3 2nd round appearances to 1 in the past decade.

Suffer.

As someone who was a giant fan before losing interest in the NFL, I can’t blame anyone for dumping the cowboys
