Wow, Knicks lost first two games at home, and now Josh Hart to the bench - an adjustment, what do you know!

I have to concede that Carlisle's brand of basketball is better than Mazzulla-Ball.

Joe needs to tweak his system.

Not saying to stop shooting 3s, but put more emphasis on attacking the basket.

I’m glad it’s the Knicks, not us who are getting bulldozed at the ECF.

Wow Brunson really can't defend on the move, just grabbing and pushing

Knicks are a joke. It shows you how inept the Celtics were. Dumb low IQ basketball. I know they were not healthy but still. Just dumb basketball the first two games of that series.

Indy didn't close half well, started feeling like they were settling for long jumpers

We needed someone who could defend bridges, not what we got. He cooked us in big moments all the time. He hasn’t helped Knicks much at all in this series, against us he looked like a world beater.

Knicks stumbled into the ECF 'cos of the dumb Cs just to get swept.

So the bad news is my favorite non. Celtic right now is Nesmith and he just busted his ankle.

The good news Indiana with Carlisle has always used 9 or 10 players. So someone should be able to step in, since they have a ton of actual playing time with not much rust.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Both teams running in mud this third quarter, which benefits Indiana since they're up

For the record, I like Ben Sheppard and his game a lot. But that porn mustache has to go.

Definitely looked bad and he couldn't put any weight on it. They carried him off.

That’s terrible. If the Knicks come back here the series could get interesting.
