We going to ECF and losing to Celtics in Game 5/6

Nah we're taking them to game 7 and then it's a toss up from there.

 

[keko jones]

I would go to the game tomorrow, but I don't think the Celtics are gonna seriously play.

Nate Robinson doesn’t ‘have long to live’ if he doesn’t get new kidney

Former Knicks guard Nate Robinson made a sobering admission that he doesn’t have long to live if he can’t find a new kidney.

It's sad but not completely true. He should be able to continue living as long as he continues dialysis. A new kidney would be nice so he doesn't have to continue dialysis but it's not necessary to continue living.

How difficult is it to find a kidney?

Do family members usually have one to give or nah?

 

[airmax1fanatic]

Fixed: Jaylen Brown, Jrue Holiday, Al Horford, Kristaps Porzingis, Jayson Tatum and Xavier Tillman will rest for tomorrow’s game vs the Knicks.

Depends on finding the right match but if you consider that 95K people are on the waitlist, it sounds like a long wait. Doesn't have to be a family member (eg, Selena Gomez).

Giannis is going to miss the last remaining games of the season (against good teams too).

We have to go for 2nd.

 

[keko jones]

Yeah, I'm not spending money to go see this.

Thanks.

Bucks play Orlando 2 out of their last 3 games too

Not a fan of playing the Sixers or a healthy Heat in round 1.

Unless you're confident we can beat both those teams and avoid Boston in round 2

Yea that’s a good point. Just looked at the bracket. I’d rather stay with the Pacers.

2nd and 3rd will avoid Boston regardless tho.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

In a lot of ways the 3 seed could be an easier bet but I still want the 2 seed on principle.

The other thing is the Heat or Sixers can get the 6th spot too.

They’re both only 1 game back.

Heat are busting their *** to win games right now. Haven’t kept up with the Sixers.

 

[you go boy]

people keep saying they dont want to see boston in the second round... lets win round 1 first lol

Guys what’s your highlight moment of the season since it’s almost over?

Mine is getting rid of RJ Barrett

 

[johnnyredstorm]

January as a whole was fire

 

[keko jones]

I don't have one single highlight, but rather a series of events that have come together to create one big highlight. From the assembly of the team to the bargains we secured for Brunson, Ragu, and Duece, to the unity of the squad. As you all know, I haven't been the biggest fan of Thibs, but now I believe he's the right coach for this team. It's not about backpedaling, but rather understanding the team's DNA. Leon put together this team to fit Thibs' style of basketball: a gritty, defensive-oriented squad. I'd be hard-pressed to think that a more offensive-minded coach would find success with this group. I say we stick with it, keep everyone on board for the next three years, and let the chips fall where they may. We have plenty of assets moving forward, so we're in good shape. The team's selflessness on offense is a positive attribute. Brunson, Randle, and others can take as many shots as they want, while the rest don't complain when they get fewer opportunities.

I believe we have a bright future if these guys stay together and continue to play as they have been.
