walking into the precinct and saying "i know you weren't looking for me but yep i did it" is just about the craziest thing anyone has ever done. but that 1st album is underrated as hell.





Puffy had him rapping on some fire ass beats tho

I hope that was the only thing he had him on.

Simmons has us in 5. He's not scared of the sixers at all. The Philly fan on the podcast just thinks they deserve to win lol

Donte is my paison, but he cant only rely on threes if he’s going to be our 2nd option. He has games where he attacks the rim, cuts, and mixes it up more, so that’s what he needs to do if his shot is off. I assume he will also have his hands full on defense mainly guarding Maxey, unless OG does it.

Speaking of OG, he must step up as a scorer. Too much talk about Donte in here and not about the soon to be 40 million dollar man. OG is a great defender but he has to be aggressive on the other end too. He gets too passive and disappears at times. He’s healthy now, in the playoffs, with a payday on the line, so time to show out.

Isaiah will have to keep giving us 15+ ppg as well. He’s been great the last month looking for his offense more. Make Embiid work on both ends.

Josh will have to do his thing running around like a nut.

Mitch hopefully had a nice week of recovery and conditioning. Time to repeat the Cavs series.

Deuce could become very important if the starters have trouble slowing Maxey. He will rise to the occasion in whatever role he’s in though.

Bojan has to be our bench bucket getter it he’s healthy.

Jalen will be Jalen, and there’s nothing they can do about it.

This will be a battle, but Knicks take it in 6.

At least we have OG.

This honestly isn't even funny. It sucks. We're replicating some AI with Larry brown sht here.

We need Brunson on gawd mode every game.

I'm going to be stressed tf out every game. And we're too old for that sht.

I root for the Knicks and against Knicks Twitter.

So whatever the outcome, I win. Completely stress-free.

I'm glad the tweet documented what Draymond said, because I saw the clip but I couldn't understand it because I don't speak lottery.

When was the last time anyone had us favored to win series?

So once again, let us prove those folks wrong.

Sadly, some of us have the emotional maturity of a preteen.

It should be noted that sham gassing up embiid is setting up iHart for slander and/or hedging if mitch folds. This man can not be trusted.

If we're up big then I hope Thibs doesn't keep the starters in there. It was 12 years ago, Game 1 of the playoffs - Bulls vs 76ers where Drose tore his ACL in the 4th quarter when Chicago was up big. I hope Thibs doesn't make the same mistake again.

I never thought he would reach these heights but I loved his efficiency and thought he had a lot of talent. Happy to see this guy reach these heights because he's just a good, humble dude and easy to root for.

To continue patting myself on the back I have also heavily advocated for the drafting of McBride, the trading for Josh Hart and been a day 1 Hartenstein supporter. All this from what some have called "one of the biggest Knicks haters"!

Lick my taint - it's playoff time. Lock in and let's get ready to rumble!


I felt strongly that Brunson would be very very good based on his playoffs.
Though I worried his defense would suck (and it hasn’t).
But Brunson went to the uppermost level one thought was possible. You know it can happen but not likely.
In a way like my avatar from when he was drafted. :wink:
