I agree. Anything can happen, of course, but realistically - ECF is likely the Knicks cap.
I actually think both of these teams match up well with the Celtics; assuming they come out of that side of the bracket. So I wouldn't be at all surprised to see the winner of this series go on to the finals

They can matchup well all they want. Barring Tatum/Brown getting hurt neither are beating the Celtics. Same goes for Philly if they advance.

You're right. The Knicks' only chance of beating the Cavs is if Garland/Mitchell get hurt.

Congratulations beating the Cavaliers. The Celtics are a whole other animal - they're heavy favorites for a reason to win the whole thing. Let me guess, next you're gonna quote the fact that the Heat weren't supposed to beat Milwaukee right? Anything can happen of course, but logically speaking here we haven't seen a team as heavy of a favorite as this since the 2018 Warriors if we're going by Vegas odds.
Philly has Doc Rivers and he is a notorious choker so I'd give them a better shot there.

I'm a heat fan but i have objective goggles about this matchup because i went to the last game we played the knicks at the Garden and it was a game of runs. Spo and Thibs are great coaches so it will be a chess match every game and will be chippy from the start. watching us all season i did not expect us to beat the Bucks with jimmy flippin the switch.
The Knicks are legit and will make us work for every point and attack the paint furiously because we are small. funny thing is me and a coworker said last saturday said if the heat and knicks meet up in the 2nd round we going to the garden dipped out in our team colors but we looked at those ticket prices today and was like ehhhhh Buffalo Wild Wings??
a lot of cheddar I imagine.

We ostensibly have better single coverage but we might wall him like we did Mitchell.
