Brunson’s struggling big time. Not saying shooters shouldn’t still shoot, but he’s not sinking those floaters or off balance fade aways in the paint he hit all season. Dude should try something else to adapt his game.
Knicks are up 2-0 in the series but Joel Embiid says 76'ers will still win this. Would be nice if Knicks could steal one of the next 2 games in Philly.
Knicks beat them 3 of 4 during the regular season and Sixers are down 2-0 but they are going to win 4 out of the next 5. Yeah, don't think that's happening. What's more likely to happen is the Knicks put his quotes on the bulletin board and make him regret saying the Sixers are the better team.
Knicks won yesterday in Philly and they are up 3-1 in the series. Loved the Knicks fans dominating in Philadelphia. Even Embiid complained about it. Okay not a basketball guy. So I have to ask @JackBower - Do Knicks match up favorably against Indiana Pacers or no?
What doesn't Embiid complain about?? Dude is not the next Bill Laimbeer as far as being dirty goes. Some day, he's gonna get what's coming to him.
One thing I learned from these playoffs is that Embiid is a dirty player. Crazy that he was allowed to grab a person's leg in mid air without a flagrant 2 ejection. Same with the knee to the balls, Draymond got a flagrant 2 for almost the same exact play. Then he cheap shotted Josh Hart's leg while on the ground, with the extra stomp that went unnoticed by refs. Mitch Robinson reinjured his ankle because of Embiid, so the Knicks beating them in game 4 with basically a 7 man rotation was glorious. The Knicks need to clean up their play in the clutch. Too many missed FTs, too many mental errors, that will not fly against Boston or another top team. Hopefully The Bucks can win some games against Indy, to prolong that series. I am a little worried about the Indiana match up. They always seem to be our kryptonite.
It’s lining up beautifully… the Pacers are a smooth matchup for the Knicks and the Celtics at the top of the bracket always choke Knicks and Mavericks in the finals
Brutal loss for the Knicks. Up six points with 28 seconds left and they pissed it away. Gotta come back strong and finish the 6ers off in Philly on Thursday. Go Knicks.
My jaded inner Jets fan smells choke. Series 3-2, I went, "And so it begins." Ya know, like when the Jets are 3 TDs ahead and the opposing team gets a FG and I start crapping my gatkes.
Uggg, they gotta clean up that play in the clutch. They had the series and a rest in the bag, but completely blew it.
The Knicks are badly missing Quickley. I get that everyone sees OG as an upgrade over Barrett on the wing and they weren’t going to pay Quickley but I think that trade bites them pretty bad in the next couple rounds. They don’t have anyone who can facilitate an offense without Brunson and the 76ers really caused a lot of problems for them at the end of the game when they ran a second guy at him.
