Hello Knicks fans, the moment of truth is upon us, it’s time to rev up for the playoffs. We’re probably not going to face the Celtics’ starters but we still should beat their behind. It would be good for morale and we’ll lock up the third seed. Let’s go Knicks !!!
I will only cherish the wins and ignore everything else, because that's the only way to survive as a Knicks fan.

Do we need to actually win this game? Might wanna give OG, KAT, and Mikal a break or limit them to a half. Brunson could use the reps but I don't wanna see guys playing 30+ mins against the Celtics bench.

Play hard to win out the remaining schedule. We need home court advantage in the Finals.

Everybody plays, need to get Brunson integrated back in the offense with OG and Mikal having a larger role.

Yes, it’s important to go through the motions and use this as practice rather than rest.

Either way: If we lose, this game counts. If we win, Boston clearly wasn’t trying.

Celtics doing what every smart franchise does entering the post season. Meanwhile regular season hero Thibs will play his starters 35+ minutes to pad his season win totals.
