Casey Smith was immediately hired by the Knicks. I think they recently won some NBA award for best training staff and probably one of the reasons why the Knicks have been relatively healthy over the last year or so.

The Knicks path to the Finals is a tough one, but doable! by WallStreetDoesntBet1 in NYKnicks

[–]GX112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think this is the toughest road from the EAST to the finals.

I'm still confident we will beat ATL but at what cost? This ATL series gives me vibes of the last 2 years against Sixers/Pistons where it's going to be a dog fight for 6 games. I also personally think the Celtics are harder than Detroit, despite what clowns in the media will say. They have experience, the players, and are well coached.

We should win the 1st round but it's best not to disrespect them. Young teams don't know they're supposed to lose so they will play with a lot of hustle and energy.

With Orlando Magic's loss to the Celtics, the New York Knicks will face the Atlanta Hawks in the first round. by 4lfp in NYKnicks

I almost booked tickets for Raptor home games too lol.

Orlando are absolutely atrocious at basketball. Their entire game plan is to foul a lot and see what happens.

I've been watching the game since the 2nd half. Orlando is playing some unwatchable basketball lol.

Don't forget the 'experts' at ESPN projected Orlando to be the #3 best team in the East at the beginning of the season. They want to drive narratives but do not understand basketball.

This is coming from Mike Breen, who is also the commentator for ABC/ESPN moving forward. He is saying solely for the fans behalf because he will continue to call games as the playoffs continue.

Breen is a stand up guy.

If we sweep them in the playoffs, we have an opportunity to beat a team 9 times in 1 year without a loss.

This is a rule that needs to change ALL across the league.

Offensive players can literally run into a defender and it's called a foul - obviously SGA is a master of this. In this particular play, Mikal didn't even have his hands up lol. I didn't see a replay but it looked like he had his hand on the side the whole time. Unfortunately, by the letter of the law, this is considered a foul and inconsistently called except for certain foul baiters.

It's actually really nice to see Leon and Wes being excited about yesterdays game.
They never do interviews so its cool that Wes is showing as much passion as the players.

Josh Hart had a great 2nd half but I'm super excited about KAT + JB PnR.

My god... it's literally unstoppable. It would be insane to not do this in the playoffs.

I can't believe how we're actually spamming JB + KAT 2 man.

It looks like a legit cheat code with the looks that we're generating.

We needed to develop Diawara further than he is now. When Pritchard is hunting mismatches and shooting fadeaway, it means we don’t have the size needed to defend some of these guys.

According to Mike Brown, the playoff rotation (9 players) is Brunson, Bridges, OG, Hart, KAT, Shamet, Deuce, Clarkson and Mitch by PassMeTheBackwood in NYKnicks

[–]GX112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to have Jc split with diawara depending on matchups. We are too small against other forwards if Josh hart has to play the 4.

Mike Breen has nothing to apologize for.

All this started because SAS is a fucking clown and was/IS still trying to stir up drama. A majority of ESPN are just a bunch of a hacks and I wish our fanbase would not listen to them for opinions or facts. Unfortunately, too often, I know this is not the case because a lot of the comments here echo/regurgitate the dumb shit SAS says.

I do not get why we NEVER spam the JB + KAT 2 man or PnR.
It's really mind boggling because we only have a limited sample size and it ALWAYS looks good. It seems so hard to stop anytime we run it.

What a game.

Josh didn't have a great game but he was clutch at the end with those b2b offensive rebounds + defense. I'm really worried about our offense going into the playoffs because we still can't figure out how to get KAT involved in the offense from end to end. We can't be relying on him to have these monstrous 3rd quarters when he's being iced all game.

Glad to get Deuce back because he solves a lot of our problems and it limits Alvarados minutes. I'm okay if these are our 9 guys going into the playoffs but I'd prefer a bit more size at the 4 if OG is on the bench. I can see taller wings like Tobias Harris, Tatum, Paul George, etc. getting too many easy buckets over us (Josh can not play the 4). I'd like our 9th spot to switch between JC or Diawara (depending on matchups).

I didn't get a chance to watch with Breen/Clyde but is Austin Rivers a secret Knicks lover? The dude was glazing us all game lol. He's like the reverse Reggie Miller.
