[BK The Great]

We still need this energy

 

[Sterling Archer]

I disagree. They beat Boston and he played a pivotal role in that in the fourth quarters. Do I need to go pull up the status, sure he did bad against Indiana but Kat's numbers in the playoffs prior to this season were ass and he also isn't as clutch. He was largely inconsistent when the Wolves needed him and I don't think he could handle the pressure of being a number one option or running the offense through him primarily but who knows may be something they can play with.

Some of that I can agree with but people are missing a dynamic with KAT. It’s that a big reason NY is in this predicament right now is because Thibs seems incapable of figuring out how to use KAT. This is not exclusive to his time in New York. In fact it highlights a big reason that KAT didn’t perform well in Minny for the same reason, Thibs.

Wilbon is an idiot for saying Haliburton is not a superstar because he plays in Indiana instead of NY or LA.

 

[Raquinotj]

Yes. The fukk?

This is year 1.

Anyway: Tyrese Haliburton is the best pure point guard in the league. He is the prototype pass first point guard.

15 assists and no TO???? 30+?

I hate this nikka but he's amazing.

You had the perfect storm this season, no major injuries in the playoffs. Still Not good enough.

Well I guess the perfect storm is happening next season since Tatum, Embiid, and Dame are still out.

Like how are you still so mad. Go outside and sniff some Citgo fumes already. I heard it makes your teeth green like your logo.

Your BEST season since the 504 Boyz released “Wobble Wobble” gonna end up in a Eastern Conference Finals gentleman sweep you gonna be forced to put up this banner to celebrate the failure.

I agree. And to possibly lose to the Pacers again, 2 years in a row

Superstar goes beyond ability on the court.

Knicks gonna be there next year 1st or 2nd seed. Milwaukee is done, Can’t count on Embiid healthy for a whole season, Tatum gonna be out probably the whole season, Cleveland some frauds, Pacers probably gonna lose Myles Turner.

I think next year Pistons, Magic, Knicks, Cavs, Pacers gonna fight for the top 5 seeds in the east and the Knicks don’t have any notable players hitting free agency.

Idk breh, I like your optimism, I just have a funny feeling some unseen team going to fight their way to a top 3 seed in the east

There’s gonna be some player movement and teams are going to see some changes but the Knicks is one of the few teams that will have a core with continuity with the top 6 players all coming back, I know I talk a lot of shyt about ya’ll it’s all for fun and games. Brunson is CLOSER, KAT is an all star(I think he need to be aggressive like game 3 in the 4th quarter more often). If you can get some more pieces for the bench to spare Anunoby/Brunson in the regular season to keep everyone fresh and healthy for the playoffs you can be in the finals.

I know KD/Giannis gonna end up in Houston and OKC will bring this team back with more experience and the Lakers will add some Center to help LeBron and Luka so I feel the west will have whoever come out alive be the champs but the Knicks will have deep runs for the next 2-3 years with this core.

objectively speaking...do yall think the Knicks will win tomorrow at MSG ?

Yes and very easily. It’s game six that will be the real problem
