Select 2026 NBA Playoffs Round 1: Knicks @ Hawks Game 4 – Time to Retake Control of the Series

Okay, it’s time for the Knicks to even this series, and take home court advantage back.

For all the pathetic nature of the Knicks’ last two losses, we’re talking two ONE POINT losses. The Hawks are barely getting past the Knicks. So it is time for the Knicks to remind them that they are so much more talented.

The Pistons are down 2-1. The Celtics barely beat the Sixers in Game 3. The Eastern Conference is up for grabs, and the Knicks need to take hold of the reins today, and start to impose their will, and win this series.

It all begins here.

Let’s go, Knicks!

Mike Brown has decided it’s best to go back to the negative 7.4 starting lineup . I kind of remember that was an issue last year and it led to a pink slip.

Brown is all froze up…just like his team…weren’t we the battled tested veteran squad…not gonna flinch?

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again!

Ugh

You will soon find out Mike Brown is a puppet who was hired by Rose because he would listen to his commands. Benching Mikal is bad optics for Rose.

You can’t bench Mikal, he’s a dawg.

A Lhasa Apso is still a dawg. Technically.

Try to give Mikal some touches early in the game (KAT as well), if he responds on both ends, good. If not, bench him.

Can’t believe what I’ve been reading on the game threads. WTF has been going on? Decided to pull an all-nighter (in Europe) to see this mess for myself.

Go Knicks! (Or else.)

I don’t get it. I thought Brown was supposed to be a stats coach. What’s the purpose if we never use the stats

He played last game like he was dribbling and shooting with paws

Mikael scored! Hoist the banner!
Please Knicks be better (assisted baskets ftw)

OG looks great

It’s a very bad matchup for Jalen all over the court. Can barely see him when Daniels is guarding him.

Maybe Brown wants to enjoy a salary without having to work for a few years. He took out KAT and Brunson in the first quarter. WTF, man.

Starting lineup finally playing well so naturally make 4 subs including taking out both KAT and Brunson…

Mikal has only had 3 dunks over his past 21 playoff games. That was a small miracle.

Hawks only have 19 pts with less than 3 mins to play Knicks defense has been fine.

Look, they might win it, but there’s nothing here that tells me that their process has improved. The final offensive possessions were awful. They are saved by the Hawks going 3-12 from deep.

So we keep feeding Brunson to go one on one with the guy who can guard him one on one…hmmm

If the Knicks lose this series, Brunson will lose so much of the good will he has built over the years.

Scott foster has to retire on the basis of that call alone

Mitch subsequently got pulled down by Okongwu…
