Why would the NBA rig the game for the Celtics? The Knicks in the playoffs is better for them. Think everyone.

I went to school with his big brother Norman who was the best sophomore in the city at that time

I have to hate the Knicks (Heat fan dating back to 96) but there's a part of me that feels they deserve this for the Isiah years. I got so many laughs out of it, but that had to be pure misery to live through. "Randolph and Curry, twin towers!"

Why is White guarding Brunson instead of Jrue?

They've beaten the refs in 2/3 games so far and are in the mix in this one.. i'd say they are there


Nah, you can see they still are unsure of what the other is going to do and how best to play off of each other. But we didn't have Towns until after Training Camp and we didn't have Mitch until after game 60 or something. So it makes sense that they're still vibing.

If your offense is just going to be Tatum shoot it, why TF would you also make him bring up the ball

if I was a Knicks fan I'd be thinking how a win here gives them a high chance of a finals appearance

Btw that was legitimately a good post-up/drive by Tatum there but his handle is so loose all the Knicks have to do is send a hard double and he'll cough it up. I'd be wary of going back to that if I'm Boston. They need everyone involved.

The game is slipping from Celtics.
