First Round Matchup Set: Knicks vs Pistons

[LFGK]

I think we lock in on Cade, force him to give up the ball and sweep them. If we don't force the ball out of his hands I don't know what we're doing.

Yeah I think people are downplaying what OG will be able to do to him. It's fine though, yet again people are thinking the sky is falling, it's going to be alright.

Very sad that some people here want to see us lose for their fire Thibs agenda.

Ian saying pretty much everybody’s on the hot seat from the players, coaches and even the Fo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The stakes are high Folkssssssssss the Stakesss are High!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brunson and OG are the only players who are safe in my opinion.

This is accurate IMO

Smart moves from the Pistons but it's probably not going to stop the Knicks from taking over the arena...

Doooooooooooooce

There are definitely some of you who want the Knicks to lose this series because you are a fan more of your opinion or agenda than you are the Knicks and that is a miserable state to be.

If this surprises you, I’m surprised. This has been going on for 7 months.

It surprises me that you are surprised by the thought it surprises me when I've had it in my signature for almost two decades.

Kind of off topic…but don’t the Wolves get the Pistons # 1 pick this year from us in the KAT trade?

Yes correct

Wingo’s Ultimate Winning Playoff Strategy:

Start Mitch throughout the playoffs and bring Hart off the bench.

Done. Boom!

Yeah, we need to slow down the game, play classic half court game and in meanwhile dont let Brunson bring the ball for 15 seconds being full court pressed by big wings... pass the ball quickly like the Triangle Lakers did and start running the sets from the wings without wasting precious seconds and energy to come off the press and traps that team now constanly put on JB

Mitch / Achiuwa or Tucker depending on the matchups
Towns / Hart
Anunoby / Shamet
Bridges / McBride
Brunson / Payne or Wright depening on the matchups

[Besart19]

Also we need to run more small ball lineups when Towns sits

Anunoby
Bridges / Shamet
Hart / Shamet
McBride / Payne
Brunson / Payne

Warriors had a great success with those lineups (KD at 5) in spurts but also the Clippers

[The KnicksFix]

Mitch hasn’t played against Detroit, keep that in mind
I feel as though we finally unleash him in the playoffs

Wow, you’ve been ahead of your time I’m actually surprised you saw this level of idiocy coming.

In order to survive, Thibs’s must not only get to round 2, the team has to play up to the Celtics level of play. I’m not saying they have to beat the Celtics, the better team at this point in time imo, but we have show that we belong. We can’t go out 4-0, 4-1, or a weak 4-2.

[NiceLikeChrist]

if losing the series is a 100% way to get thibs fired then I'm not mad at those who are secretly hoping we get it out of the way. in their minds there's no way we are winning 2nd round or ECF so might as well get it over early and make sure thibs is gone

nightmare scenario would be winning 1st round handily, taking 2 or 3 games off boston and then the front office deciding that's enough to roll with thibs for the next 3 years. chances of us winning a chip with this bozo are slim

I expect us to win this series though since we're just the better team. if we really do lose thibs needs to be gone the very next morning

[HarthorneWingo]

Also, throw occasional doubles at Cade. He needs to be disrupted. Those clown are newbies. We’re the vets with home court advantage. F these twats.

TWATS!

Christ thinks you know nothing about basketball. He personally communicated that to me. He also said that you’re not that nice.

I’d also like to see some Delon Wright on Beasley who’s a physical player. I’m not sure Deuce or Cam can handle him.

Touché

I’m still right. Also, I would play Delon Weoght over Cam.

We need to make sure only the right people get to make game threads during the playoffs.

1. NO BALLBOYS!

For some reason, they come out of the woodwork when the playoffs start. No self awareness whatsoever!!!

2. Only those with the biggest game thread winning streaks during the season or established veterans are permitted.

Bro, there’s one guy on here that made game threads recently, have no clue who he was
Damn near had an aneurysm because we were in the middle of a losing streak
I think the GT didn’t even have the time or date of the game in it
We need to bring out the best of the best for game threads
