One of the dumbest takes lol

Those games early on meant nothing, especially the Boston game lol
And we had Cleveland on the ropes before we took our foot off the gas.

*** some X users asked me about a phrase I used about Robinson that was isolated in a post by the Let’s Talk Knicks account. I did say on Wednesday night that Robinson was not close to a return. But I said it within the context of the latest update from Thibodeau. Thibodeau said that Robinson was not yet running full speed. So, in my read, he is not close to returning. The post from Let’s Talk Knicks was accurate. But I think it would have been helpful to include the context of the rest of the conversation.

This is the problem with taking quotes from secondary or tertiary sources - it may be misleading even when the quote is accurate. It can be very dangerous in the hands of someone armed with a huge cache of !!!!s.

We have Wingstop and I'm offense they have to guard a rested Brunson and Kat.

People will come at you but it is the truth. While we have been very good lately, it's mostly been against trash teams. We gotta beat the elite ones if we wanna win it all. A win tonight would be huge.

A signature win would be nice but I don't take too much from those early games. That said, if we get smoked tonight it would be bad.

Im thirsty to see us beat elite comp. A blow out loss would mean we are pretty much the same team from the beginning of the season. Hopefully this team is forreal and we win

I don’t think we’re the same team but definitely a win against OKC would mean a lot more to me

Right. But where would a close loss put us? I'd say on track though obviously you want the win.

The reality is they've won 8 in a row, and 13 of their last 14 (which is still great).


That is stupid and more reason to get rid of the stupid Cup


Hard agree!

The cup is stupid as hell. Never liked that thing and always said it was a dumb gimmick.

Real hoop purist, like me and rob, aren't swayed by false idols. We have are eye on the real prize - an nba championship.


Count me in, too!
