You know this Robinson kid would look really good on the Raptors. Just saying.

I bet he would. But the Knicks aren't interested.

If OG is worth 3 first rounders, we're gonna need 6 first rounders for Mitch.

I'll fall on the sword on behalf of Knicks fans here.

At the beginning of this series most Knick fans were predicting a hard fought, close series. We were called delusional. Overconfident. That one team was clearly better than the other and it would become glaringly obvious. Five, six games tops.

And you know what? Y'all were right. It wasn't close at all. I'll take the L and admit I was wrong.

Phew. I feel better now.

ESPN's mid season Top 100 had 4 Cavs on it before the Knicks had anyone. We just stomped them. Thanks for falling on the sword. I had it Cavs in 7. Beating them in 5 is insane!

[knicksNOTslick]

Didnt watch but saw the Knicks had 17 orebs, was that basically the difference?

Knicks basically killed the clock with offensive rebounds to win the game.

and OG

This is really **** sweet.

So glad the Knicks did not overpay for Donovan. We still all have our assets, which all have gone up in value since last the offseason. This team is one legit wing away from being a legit contender. Hell, if RJ keeps playing the way he did for games 3-5, that might not be as pressing a need.

Called knicks in 5 max on page 2 of the first thread but I really watched my team and a good bit of the cavs as well so I knew without a doubt that we're better than them and wasn't worried in the slightest.

Think we take out Miami in 5 or 6, same goes for the bucks. We've had the Celtics number these past few seasons but I think that one goes to 6 at least.

We can def make the finals this season

Heat would be a tough series, but a winnable one. The bucks would smoke the Knicks.

I hate that Ernie has to bring up that the Cavs haven’t won a series without LeBron since ‘93 like the franchise is still giving that man checks.

[Big_Aristotle]

I had the same thoughts, but I believe LBJ's priority in 2024 will be to play with his son. Not to join this Cavs team.
Would be a nice story though, Coming Home v2.0 and retire as a Cavs.

Well why couldn't he do both?

Beat me to it, I was gonna say that could be one in the same. It is probably no coincidence either that their 2024 FRP was the only one they kept.

I didn't know about that FRP, so it remains a possibility. It's still more than a year out, a lot can happen between now and then. We'll see how it goes

If someone had told me RJ and Obi were going to lead Knicks in playoffs I would have slapped them hard Jesus is the world ending?

Good job by the Knicks young guys for showing up as for RJ I heard he was playing like trash because of his girlfriend if this is true god damn you **** unprofessional robot.

lol you’re pathetic dude.

[gavran]

Watch the Knicks get an 8 second violation right here.

Gotta hand it to you, you've put up a better fight then the Cavs frontcourt.

Funny how some Cavs fans want Knicks fans to be classy but have been trashing the team and fanbase from the beginning til even now.

Sorry bro, you don’t get to pull a Dillon Brooks on us.

They're just heated the same way some of y'all are still heated from the pre-series talk. Both sides could be classier if we wanted to be. Not saying y'all shouldn't take your victory lap now that we've won, especially those of you who predicted Knicks in 5...although that can be achieved without needing to s*** on the cavs kids quite so much

Just saying that the same way other fanbases respond more to our most aggro fans like bNo than they do folks like Capn, and so get this warped perspective on how aggressive & dickish we are as a whole...some of our fans have been responding to the most aggro comments from opposing fans, which is why they're feeling extra bereaved & disrespected.

You right lol. bNo is going on a rampage now. But yea, that's why I made sure to say some Cavs fans. Ironically, I think it's the ones that were least classy before the series started that want Knicks fans to be classy now.
