I still feel like the pressure is on the knicks to win G2 but I won't be crushed if NY loses tonight outside of a blowout that makes G1 look like a mirage.

If the Knicks win game 2 they will have a stranglehold on the series (like Pacers do over the Cavs). This is pretty close to a must win game for the Celtics, so I'd say the pressure is on them.
Knicks lose and at least they still got the split and stole homecourt advantage.

I really don't want NY to get into this game with the bolded attitude. All year Boston was the better club by a pretty large margin. When you're going for an upset you can't have the attitude all we need is a split.

Hopefully Ark can lead us to another win in Boston, even though they should be out for blood tonight.

Yeah we need to keep punching them in the face...even though I expect Boston to give us their best shot tonight...bait them into even more bad threes, do better on the boards, get KAT rolling if he can avoid the soft fouls he picked up in the first half of game 1, and punish them at the FT line when we can get a whistle.

Arky needs to get their hatin' ass into this thread pronto.

I think the rule is that if we say Mikal Bridges 5 times, they'll automatically appear in a thread?

Btw... it's quite painful when I have to type stuff like "NYK leads 1-0." But I do it for you guys.

The series I'm thinking about right now is 2023 MIA-BOS. Miami pulled off the upset but that series went 7 with MIA even with Miami winning the first 2 in Boston.
I just don't think NY can bank on 3-0 at home.

Yeah we need to kill them before they figure out how to protect their bigs from Brunson and the Jays from any offball cuts. Our offense needs to crank it up a couple of levels to offset any shooting regression from Boston.

Hopefully we can advance to the next round quickly, so you don't have to make too many more of these

Hopefully you don't have to update the Knicks side of the column again.

Get the man a banana bag and let's go. We need him to stretch the d and alter shots. If KP plays he's dropping 27.
