OK, we need this win. The Knicks and their fans have a God complex because of their arena (The Mecca
) Their hatred for Boston and the Celtics is real because they believe if it wasn't for the Celtics, they would be kings of the NBA. (Laughable I know!) They think that because they won 3/4 last year they have our number. Put them in their place tomorrow night. And if you need any more incentive, Bobby Marks picks the Knick to beat the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals
End this foolishness!!

Actually, I don't begrudge the Knicks too much. This is probably the only time this season that they feel like they have a hope of winning it all. Give them a few weeks, and they'll probably be back on the "We suck" train.
Let them have these few moments of hope before it all comes crashing down around them - Again!!!

Amazingly, Bucks nailed bucks and nuggets winning the finals.

With Beal out. PHX started JOSH OKOGIE. The offense never ran through him, yet he managed to play quite well with his energy and defense. Managed 7-9 on offense as a bonus. WE have the bigger version here. Stevens of course. Let him rotate with all of our star players and do the necessary dirty work. Every team can use that type of player. Especially when they are full of stars.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..

It starts tonight.
This is the damn season and I’ve never been so sure about anything.

[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Exactly. When you have 4 great options on offense you can hide one who is willing to do the dirty work. Think about how nasty defensively it could be with Stevens or Brissett subbing in for one of the Jays with the rest of starters. Same with Hauser and Pritchard bringing a boost to the offense without it hurting defense too much. I liked how Joe worked in the subs during last preseason game and the offense usually didn’t miss a beat.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

So weird seeing Doc as an announcer, last I can remember he was one before becoming our coach? Maybe sometime after that and in between jobs...but weird to see.
