Let’s go Knicks! On our way to win the cup! 🧡💙
CyberCronin….
Does seem like a favorable draw, kind of…
CyberCronin….
LOL
Tonight especially, Owen. The Raptors aren’t that good when they’re healthy, and they’re not healthy.
I’m still listening to Violet Grohl and JK… great tune! I love it! 🤘
Clydeeeee!!! 🧡💙
Huk Huk!!!
Did anyone interview Bane on national TV and ask why he was such a dick?
Isn’t this the quarter finals?
Quick is not a starter !?
raptor announcing their lineup: me scratching my head…. who?
Isn’t this the quarter finals?
Yes, the semis and final are in Vegas.
Let’s win the two games that count!
I see Quick is out, good for us.
Let’s win the two games that count!
And then the other one. 😛
matador d (if i wasn’t watching on prime)
No Mitch, trouble on the interior – gave up that first board, then one for an easy putback. No bueno.
Brunson iso against Poetl is a good way not to turn the ball over
Edit: after another TO, yes, please let’s just let Brunson score
Some old school Thibs take 14 seconds to even attempt a set, great.

One of the keys to the game was a Clyde gem – “Don’t procrastinate, devastate” 😉

Ingram looks much better than he used to.
KAT and Brunson gets most of the shit for the Knicks bad defense but Hart low key is a big part of the horrible Knicks defensive possessions.
If we lose to Toronto sans IQ and RJ…
Knicks are a step slow.
lot of standing around ball watching on the offense
Offense isn’t the Knicks problem so far…
My color commentary so far: ugh
So we’re smacked 2 times, no foul, we do it one time, they call it.
And then the other one. 😛
No that one’s cursed
The Raps look dug in.
lot of standing around ball watching on the defense
KAT reverting to dumb fouls………..
If we lose to Toronto sans IQ and RJ…
…E will be miserable! 😛
KAT reverting to dumb fouls………..
They’re like tatoos. It you see one you’re gonna see two more.

A Knicks loss tonight wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world, they’d get 4 days off before playing Miami at home then another 3 days off before playing a back to back.
Can we fire Clarkson?
That second Clarkson FTA, yikes.
Can we fire Clarkson?
LOL
lol at the crowd cheer on Brunson’s miss – don’t they know Mitch is in the game?
Brunson misses a FT for the 5pt play
Brunson wants to win the Cup.
1
Hopefully they’ll burn out their energy in this first quarter.
Can we fire Clarkson?
The CBA effectively won’t let us do it without a trade.
Well, at least the Knicks still have Brunson.

WHAT A RUN LFGK!!!!

At least one guy can shoot rn.

No chance for the “this would be the worst loss of the season” comment tonight? 😉 😛 😀
Winning games without Deuce is like pulling teeth.
That commercial for “Oh. What. Fun.” was so long I feel like I watched the whole movie
No cyber definitely not tonight 😂
1
I’m also okay not giving Desmond Bane another chance to injure one of our players
Clarkson can’t be on the floor. Jesus.
Hubert, I was just thinking that!
Brunson, at the end of that incredibly long time out, saying to Clarkson: “Do something useful.”
Glad the Knicks read my comment…just let Brunson shoot

Thank God for the League Pass, i don’t have commercials. 🙂
Somehow Clarkson’s defense has been worse than his offense.
So apparently OG is completely useless trying to cover Ingram?
Wilt’s record is in danger…
Brunson going for 80.
Yabu is useless on defense unless he’s playing with 40+ year old guys at the Y.
I don’t think Clarkson had an angle to Mitch on that one, but again, passing to a big low under the hoop is almost always a bad idea
1
Considering how bad Toronto is offensively this might be the most embarrassing defensive quarter by the Knicks this season.
1
Yeah I might be turning this bullshit off soon and going to bed early…
Horrible defense compounded by giving clarkson too much run
Also Mitch has made pretty much zero good decisions
I don’t understand Brown’s love of Clarkson. I get that he’s an eater of innings, but he’s more of a pre-Hardmode Corruption-themed worm boss.
With Deuce and Shamet out, Kolek is the only alternative to Clarkson – and he should be playing.

Absolutely embarrassing!
Clarkson got me wondering if this should be the Kevin McCullar game.
Wilt’s record is in danger…
Which one? 😀
Clarkson is cooked, the end.
With Deuce and Shamet out, Kolek is the only alternative to Clarkson – and he should be playing.
Don’t downplay Clarkson’s skills… we could easily play Diawara, Tosan, Dadiet, McCullar, and Jemison over Clarkson too.
Need to win on the offensive boards the rest of the way
Based on this season’s numbers, Ingram will not stay this hot.
1
Brown finally glanced at Knickerblogger and put Kolek in.
Breen about Hart “so good at finishing near the rim”, and indeed he is
Its the normal rotation, Brunson plays entire 1st quarter then sits and Kolek starts the 2nd quarter.
LET’S GOOOOOOO!!!!!
If they’re going to play like shit I at least need Clyde to attempt “Mamukelashvili”
1
I know, BBA, I just like the idea of an Assistant Coach of Media Hot Takes in the second row whispering to Brown about our posts…
1
Hart is a turnstile
If they’re going to play like shit I at least need Clyde to attempt “Mamukelashvili”
He’ll probably go with “Sandro”
I’d love to see a few more of those spin moves from Towns. Gorgeous.
1
Hart is a turnstile
Yeah, his defense has been really bad. He’s ok against bigger and slower guys, but can’t stay in front of anyone fast.
Look at KAT!
Edit: and OG!
More of THAT KAT
Clarkson’s eyes lit up when he saw Dick covering him
Scottie Barnes is one of those NBA players who is very triggering to me as a former middle school teacher, because he makes the exact same face to refs who accurately call fouls on him as students denying they did things I very obviously saw them do. It’s a particular kind of over the top incredulity.
I guess there’s no Assistant Coach of Media Hot Takes…
That e7 advertisement was fuckin packin heat
Raven that actually would be great if every game a different member of Knickerblogger sits near the Knicks bench giving Mike Brown coaching advice from the blog!
1
Just realized that the game is on MSG 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Dang can’t believe I missed a whole quarter of Breen and Clyde
And Hahn???
Ok KAT
Holy shit KAT!!
Holy moly KAT
That’s more like it 🙂
Poetel posterized
I was sure they’d collapse once Kolek went back to the bench, but nope.
