What's the chances OG goes off for a career playoff high again?

We can go in and on.

Celtics in 5.


Pretty good considering OG has never been as good offensively as he has been? Dude really leveled up this season when Brunson was out.


Yeah OG wasn't a fluke last night. Hart is such a winning player too. The Knicks are loaded and healthy this year. We got a series.




chances are VERY high Tatum will be in hell all game 2 with OG on him, what was the stat of OG as the primary defender this game again?

They needed everything to go right just to win by 3.

Imagine having that kind of confidence after escaping with a win vs a team playing their worst possible game hahahhahahqhahha


tell your boy tatum to man up, man shaking in his boots when he sees OG across from him.

I mean they did win a playoff game on the road
I hear you though that the Cs had a lot go bad and blew a 20 point lead at home and it’s not likely that they miss that many open 3s again, but still, Knicks played good D and overcame a bunch of missed free throws to win on the road. They have every right to be excited. It’s going to be a tough series, Will see what Brown and Tatum are made of. Knicks came through in the clutch. Celtics didn’t.

They won by a basket.

Am I supposed to bend the knee and capitulate my entire take because they win by a single basket in game 1?

I don't think so.

Celtics in 5.

56-33 run. You were up 20. Couldn’t win in regulation. Knicks were having their worst game of the playoffs and the Celtics could close them out. Hahahahahahahaahahah

I’ll be here…when not moving my little girl & her mom up to live with me…just like I was while the top 3 were whipping the floor with us in the regular season.

You’ll probably win… and I’ll pick you over Indiana/Cleveland in 6 or 7 if you do…but if the Celtics disrespect the Knicks as much as you do, this won’t be the only time you get Brunson’d.

Screaming A isn’t a Knicks fan, he just plays one on tv. Perk reps us way harder than SAS ever has.

Incorrect. You and a host of other knick fans keep quoting ME. I'm not engaging with you. You're engaging with me.

No one asked you to harass me for my opinion or for other users to dig up post I made of Celtics in 5 after one **** game but here we are.

I get it. You guys gotta get your licks in now because next week you got nothing else to do but don't turn this into me disrespecting the Knicks. Celtics in 5 is a completely reasonable take giving the talent gap and how the regular season went.

Get over it. It happened. I didn't just make it up.

I'd enjoy it too knowing I got romped by this team 10 of the previous 11 meetings and at expected to take another early round exit.

Like is said. It was the Knicks championship. Congratulations.

What you didn't expect was a game 1 win and it shows.
