If Kolek dunked on Bronny what would you do?

No one should be overly concerned about the Lakers or Rockets game. What matters more is the Celtics game because it will show if this team is different from the last time they played them.

The Knicks will likely have to go through the Celtics if they want to reach the Championship, so that game will be much more telling. But the Lakers game? Knicks fans shouldn’t lose their minds if they lose that one, lmao.

Some fans bang their heads against the wall after every loss. I’m not sure why.

It's not on MSG. Just mute the game if Doris annoys you that much.

Anyone else kinda worried about KAT’s bone chip? I hope it doesn’t get progressively worse throughout the season, we’ve seen it has impacted his shotmaking ability already, best case scenario is he gets used to it till the offseason with no lasting consequences…

I hope we win and score over 130 and Doris Burke is stuck in the face with the ball off a deflection.

Anything less I'll consider a loss
