While u have a point about Randle, how many 'ships did Sprewell win with the Knicks, I forgot? His stats look like a poor man's RJ. This is your gold standard for the Knicks?

Well he took them to the NBA Finals. Went to the WCF with Minnesota too. Twice the player RJ is ever going to be. How old are you to talk about his stats lol

HE took them to the finals? Wasn't there some guy named Ewing on that team?

Runner up is the first loser. Ewing is a loser and nobody wants to watch him. He isn’t that type of talent, like MJ. They should have just tanked for Elton brand instead of making the playoffs as an 8 seed. I was rooting for losses the entire season. /s

Watch on YouTube

They only showed the Celtic's reaction to the loss. The hidden message. The Celtics lost the game, the Knicks didn't win it. They also ignored the results of the pregame prediction regarding who would score more....the Randle and Brunson duo versus Brown and Tatum.

They are so damn predictably lame. The broadcast is just one commercial to fawn over the same 6 or 7 players,. When the script gets flipped they just go into ignore mode. Thank god there are alternatives like this forum and Internet broadcasts like KnickfanTV.

I have long distanced myself from the Knicks emotionally, basically since the Sprewell days because this franchise never gets it done and always lost momentum when it was time for change. From that view, Boston actually lost the game and New York didn’t win it. In the big picture, that’s just the way things are. Boston has been a true contender and the Knicks aren’t at all. Nobody cares about the Knicks until some real changes are made to the roster. It’s simply the way it is. Who wants to watch Julius Randle play? He isn’t that type of talent.

I don't fully agree with that point about Randle. I mean sure the league gets behind the flashy players - the top scoring players but Randel's play lately puts him in an area where he should be getting recognition. This version of Randle , the one that is yamming it on Tatum and Hordford is something I think people would want to see.

Anyway, it was Camby and Spree who led them to the finals. And maybe diminished LJ.

Embiid is motivated, lets see if he can outplay Jok for once.

Woj bomb: Myles Turner extends for 2/60. $17mm is going to his salary this year so really 2/42

Super interesting deal. Myles gets the equivalent of 2 years at 30 prior to the new TV contact, while the Pacers only have a 20m cap hit next year. And Turner is extremely tradeable.
