Official '24 NYK playoffs thread: east semifinals vs Indy

[8pm at msg]

San Antonio been putting up a fight in 4th quarters so I'm not gonna celebrate too early

Did you all watch the Spurs last game? They were blown-out. The announcers are discussing the Knicks offense as if beating the Spurs is a sign of its birth. I'm optimistic that it is, but I wouldn't be surprised if they encounter difficulties against a seasoned team.

I mean Knicks had a chance to win against the bucks and Celtics and squandered it. This team is for real and can play. Just need to make sure Randle keeps his head straight.

 

[don ramon]

yeah julius rough start cost the knicks at least two games

 

[keko jones]

Certainly, I was specifically talking about the offensive performance. The team's defense has been solid enough to secure wins. In the games we lost, having the kind of offense they're demonstrating tonight could have made a difference. That's why I'm eager to see if this offensive performance can be consistently maintained against seasoned teams going forward.

Hubie Brown def wants the Spurs to win

 

[masagipatron]

Starks, Kid Mero and Melo in the cut.

 

[Air Pope]

Mitch has played great tonight

 

[8pm at msg]

OK I think we're safe.

Good effort tonight. Thibs ain't yelling as much as he used to means we're on point.

 

[Air Pope]

Great win

 

[don ramon]

solid game.
ihart and mitch played excellent
so did rj, jb and randle

 

[biggie62]

People better put some respekt on RJs name.

 

[don ramon]

only 2 turnovers tonight (both by randle)

 

[big j 33]

Another good win

The jerseys looked better in person, but the shorts are fire.

Man these jersey have really grown on me, I’m hoping they drop authentic versions soon.

I feel like they won't. Last two year's city jerseys had no authentics iirc.

 

[Coupé It]

The jerseys and court weren’t as bad as I thought.

Definitely got flashbacks of Stat and Melo years.

Good win.

 

[ballinsam23]

RJ has been the best Knick this year.

Hoping Brunson can find his shot. Missing a lot of easy ones he hit last year.

I ****ed with Obi because he put in max effort and had a good sideline presence for his teammates, but dude has been pretty bad on the Pacers. Not gonna call him a bust a few weeks into being on a new team but there might've been a reason we couldn't commit to him getting big minutes

I mean yea. His offense was limited and he’s a liability on defense. He’s a burst bench player at best. Just sucks we drafted him over haliburton.

I’m hoping, last year they dropped the authentics in March. So hopefully later in the season.

That’s cool.

But we REALLY need a backup 4.

That’s why I was so pissed at the trade.

 

[don ramon]

these are strong moves by ihart. he's getting his

 

[Mister Meaner]

Everytime we play good I’m against making any trades

I get it. When the vibes are immaculate, everyone is perfect as they are

Which is why the only move needed is Quick scenarios w/ some context. JB still ain’t going nowhere I’m assuming.

Do we still yearn for the days when Evan would score 17 & give up 22?

Aside, I effs w/ Sochan still. Dude is a baller in the making.
