over 2013 easily.

1994 Knicks and 1998 Yankees only debatable ones..

I've always felt the Knicks was NYC's team. :hubie:
🧢🧢🧢

Fans spent a large portion of the season hate watching this team and comparing it to last years team :mjlol:

KAT is considered a role player now? :mjlol:
Role players getting super max deals in the nba :wow:

Even if his tweets look like an AI writes, not even an AI would say some shyt like that. Did he stop paying attention to basketball after he left the Lakers in 2019 :mjlol:
Even back then he was already a back to back all star

Knicks gotta win game 3. Absolute must win if they wanna steal the series because otherwise I still expect those bytch ass Celtics to come back.


Celtics shooting 25% on 25 open threes isnt a real winning strategy. just need the Knicks to pull off 2 more miracles.

I've seen numerous talking heads with the cope "well if Boston just hit two more threes they'd be up 2-0", totally ignoring the Knicks haven't played that well either, yet are actually winning the games, and nothing in basketball happens ceteris paribus

they also don't realize how different the Knicks are defensively with Mitchell Robinson. Celtics swept the Knicks this season without him playing

Knicks have definitely shown up and made timely runs when it's mattered (to which they deserve credit for), but one would be remiss to not see that Boston has been in the driver's seat for almost the entirety of this series, all the while shooting terribly and defaulting to bad habits of the past (that we all thought they'd put behind them after winning last season).

It's almost as if you run either of those games back and Celtics win 8/10 times. It just so happens that the result we have now ended up being the 2/10 times.

I just voted Celtics in 7...This series is giving me flashbacks of the '94 Western Conference Semifinals between the Suns & Rockets.The Suns overcame huge deficits games 1 & 2---winning both games on the road in Houston.The Knicks even have some snake bitten Phoenix Suns residue on them(Mikal Bridges, Landry Shamet, PJ Tucker, and Cam Payne)......I have this fuked up Phoenix Suns intuition.Anything connected to it.I can feel the dark clouds forming.

Yes and no. True they are a far superior team talent wise and yes been better period as the stats show. But this the playoffs. Knicks are physical and Celtics playing scary when the game on the line. When it happen twice in a row at your home arena it ain’t no fluke. They got punked. I think they win the series too. But I can’t act like the shots simply wasn’t falling like how Timberwolves was just way the hell off and cold against the warriors the other day. Wolves weren’t intimidated. Just outplayed and bad shooting. Celtics out here looking soft . Wouldn’t be surprised if Knicks win again. And I really don’t like the Knicks either. But I ain’t with that soft shyt the Celtics on

Happy the Knicks stole 2 in Boston but the series is far from over.

Those wins will be meaningless if they come back home and lay a dud for G3.

Knicks at home in the playoffs over the past couple of years have been ass, and they haven't closed out a playoff series at home since 1999 :francis:

We gotta go for the jugular. Anything less is shameful BS
