It's going to be a tough one. But our Kings always got a plan.

We got this. Somebody is going to step up on game night

This series would be so different, even five guys playing well would not be enough, we need our spark plug from the bench, or at least close the gap against theirs.

That would be a massive achievement and momentum swing had we stolen one of their home games. We have two chances to do that.
Are you fans of the team or the player?

Start with the twin towers line up so we can rough em up, win on the boards, bench hart so he can be our bench spark plug. I really don’t think we can play 5 out and beat them at their own game, we need to crash the glass and play at our pace and play strong at the arc. This is the type of matchup thibs is **** awful against so hopefully he’s learned to defend the perimeter against a 3 point shot chucking team.

Boston has gone all the way before, but I refuse to believe that they are a particularly tough team. Jrue is tough and I respect Pritchard and White, but we need to play big and punch first and hard to see if they can recover. Bring Hart off the bench to sustain pressure. Get a split in Boston at all costs, maybe that shakes them.

Mitch can't guard KP on the perimeter and KAT is a liability on the defense. Get me some Precious! Delon should also be getting some burn guarding Jrue.

Ofc none of this will happen cuz Thibs is a broken record.
Fire Thibs!

Has anyone else heard that MSG is selling tickets to tomorrow's Game 1 vs. the Celtics? $10/seat, to be donated to charity. I suppose it's just a giant indoor watch party, but it could get loud in there if the Knicks play well!
