Official '24-25 NY Knicks Offseason Thread

[In The Zone '98]

Deflating but don't listen to the haters. Knicks blew this game more than Pacers won. NYK was the better team for 40 minutes of the game.

Come out strong and win g2 and take back the momentum.

Mans just cooked the defending champs

They will win 4x in two weeks

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Also, we should’ve already knew that this was going to be a long stressful series. Anyone saying Knicks in 5 wasn’t being realistic (or maybe I could be wrong )

Next 48 hours going to suck dealing with all the trash talk from the haters... f*ck

Time to turn the TV off.

I feel like I'm 10 again, but at least I'm old enough to go to the dispensary now.

shyt all this game was missing was a cut away to a live car chase

We're fine. It took Nesmith turning into Steph Curry to win that game.

1) Brunson has to pick his spots better when to takeover. Soon as he came back in the game, the offense stalled out. One of his teammates or coaches has to call him out on that.

2) Haliburton will have a couple of those no show games where he scores in single digits on a horrible shooting %.

3) Knicks have already won 5 road games this series (3 in Detroit, 2 in Boston). Winning a couple in Indy shouldn’t be that tall of a task.

I hope so, breh. I really fukking hope so.

If they don't win game 2, man...................................

that one pick and roll with Kat he did get fouled but he kept holding the ball instead of passing it. he that main guy but dont stop the ball like that im too hyped and angry gonna hit a spliff outside.

Nembhard and Nesmith are motherfukkers they tough

After these playoffs the FT strategy should be deaded honestly shouldn’t be used unless there’s like 3-5 seconds on the clock. Knicks are not the only team in these playoffs to get fukked using it. It’s way too much pressure to inbound the ball and keep up with the free throws.

OG missed that damn FT and he had the extra pass to Hart on the intentional

I wanted more time off the clock

That's definitely true, but then the Celtics were the better team for the majority of their series against the Knicks too and look how that ended. This postseason has been a run of unpredictable events, so who's the better team for however many more minutes doesn't seem to mean anything in the grand scheme of things.

Deflating loss

This shyt is infuriating

fukking stupid ass Knicks. Especially Brunson

 

[TOAD99]

And fukk all this talk about the Knicks being better all game

Who the fukk cares if we end up losing

The Celtics were better 40 minutes each game and they’re still in Cancun

 

[Derek Lee]

That Siakam foul on OG being overturned was complete bullshyt. How do you fumble an easy dump off pass and blow a tire on a fastbreak dunk though?

That’s the NBA today and this is why it’s better than ever.

20 years ago teams down 15+ with 2 minutes are going through the motions towards the finish line. Today, if you’re not on point you will choke.

I can’t fukking believe it…

OG having no handles helped contribute to the loss

Ain’t been this pissed off since the 2013 series. My blood pressure might spike this go around.
