burn the bench this game. rest the starters as much as reasonable to keep the game within decent margins.
then take the next 2 games and wait for boston


This. Or just take the blowout in G3. Play some Burks, Precious, Sims, and Shake to get them ready.

He nailed it. I been talkin bout it all day with my boys… it’s crazy how they’d rather hate than give any credit to the fight, perseverance, and success our guys are having. It’s really kinda sick when you consider we’ve really never seen anything like this before.

We get a legendary performance from Brunson coming back from injury, Hart is playing like Dennis Rodman crossed with LeBron out there, and all they can talk about is the **** officiating and how we still ain't ****.

If we take the title the first thread on the GB will be "are the Knicks the worst title team of all time."

Truest statement that would ever be made in the GB, for sure.

Then they would be like, lolKnicks finally win a title after 50+ years, lololeleventy!!!111

The Pacers are soft. It won't be easy but, I still think we can win this series without OG. They went 6 games against the depleted Bucks. We are already up 2-0. It's doable. Carlisle is also a moron and his players just watched him cry after a loss.

Boston? Different story. If he's not back for that series, it's almost guaranteed a wrap. Anything's possible but, yeah.


Before the playoffs I didn't have much hope against Boston. But I was starting to dream the dream. Now I'm rolling it back a lil. They just need to win 2 out of the next 5 against a soft Pacers team. They got this.

Is there such a thing as a cortisone shot in your hamstring? The Knicks need to be looking for some quack doctor right now lol

McConnell has really been their best offensive player and it's not even close

Hali was very good but his stats don't really reflect his impact yesterday -- he's not having a huge impact

So you thought we could beat the Celtics, huh

Love it


I was starting to buy all the way in. I mean we would have the best player in the series and og would have made Tatum's life hell

Also fck the Cs. I was going all the way in regardless of being reasonable. What's the point of being a sports fan if we can't be delusional during the playoffs. Kinda feel like this team has earned it. So I was really ready to go all in.

Precious either made that phone call or got that phone call from his father or mentor about the opportunity he has...
you know his agent called him...yeah...I expect his best effort and we know our guys love to win on the road...
