Championship teams get back up from heartbreaking losses. This is just part of our journey. We got this.

Brunson tunnel vision in OT and Mitch lack of closeouts on Maxey in the 4th lost us the game. The most important flaw was Thibs not going with what just worked a game ago. Like how Fn stupid do you have to be to not just repeat that? Sickening loss.

Hart has like 2-3 unforced turnovers every fcking game. I was like oh no once he threw that pass to OG

Mitch missed FTs to seal it?

Sports is painful

That’s why they want you betting on the action so you can enjoy a win even when your team chokes

It's on thibs. Embiid isn't a threat no need for Mitch who isn't comfortable on perimeter and it killed us for 7 pts in 20 seconds.

That is 100% on thibs

Precious couldn’t play 1 second after being the X factor last game, huh?

Our coach is a loser. Always has been, always will be. Had better teams with Chicago and went nowhere because he’s a terrible X and O coach with garbage rotations.

There is no way you can have confidence in this team after this performance.

Way too much in that OT. Made some big shots but didn’t trust anyone else. That’s not what got us here

Allowing them a 3pt opportunity for OT instead of putting them at the line for 2 was the reason for this loss.

That's a coaching call.

Yeah so many mistakes but this one is glaring. Cant even allow someone like Maxey to take a 3 period.

One of the worst losses and biggest choke jobs in NYK history and I won't be surprised if it cost us the series and ends our season.

This is not a championship team. Sorry to say. Maybe next season. This is a gritty team with lots of heart. Not enough talent and Thibs may not be the one.

This the type of **** that flips a series.

6 points up and then tries to be a hero to get a block on Maxey. Dude just let it go...

none of us expected him to take the 3 that far out BUT they should have fouled him before...

What's Hart's excuse for not being a good free-throw shooter? You expect centers to miss free-throws, but wtf man.

Hats off to Maxey. That dude can play for my team anytime
