2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks vs. Pacers, Game 7, Best Of 1 Opener, which is a thing today

Both OG Anunoby and Josh Hart will start Game 7 for the Knicks against the Pacers today, and that just speaks to the heart and the resiliency of this Knicks team, and it is just so inspiring. You really have to like the Knicks’ chances today with both OG and Hart starting, as even a […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks @ Pacers, Game 6, Next Stop Boston, which better be a thing

The Knicks head to Indianapolis for Game 6 of this Best of 7 series, and honestly, this just speaks to how important home court is, as you know that eventually someone is bound to lose at home, and you sure want to be the team that had their home games out of the way already […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks vs. Pacers, Game 5, Best of 3 Opener, which is kind of a thing

The Knicks head back to the Garden after a disastrous Game 4 performance to a tied series, and no OG for tonight, and very likely Friday night, as well. So the Knicks’ backs are against the wall, as their defense without OG is pretty darn bad, and the Pacers have the best offense left in […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks @ Pacers, Game 4, Mother’s Day Massacre Opener, which is hopefully a thing

From ess-dog’s lips to God’s ear, let’s see the Knicks massacre the Pacers. The Knicks have been waiting for a blowout these whole playoffs, let’s see them finally get one today. I’m still confident in this Knicks team even if they lose this one today somehow, but, well, obviously, much better to head home up […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks @ Pacers, Game 3, Win One for the OG-er Opener, which is not a thing

The Knicks head to Indiana to take on the Pacers, now down one of their most indispensable players, OG Anunoby. That is a huge blow for the Knicks, but he might actually return this series, so the Knicks really just need to split these next two games to be in the driver’s seat still (even […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks vs. Pacers, Game 2, Win One for the Mitcher Opener, which is not a thing

The Knicks suffered yet another major injury as Mitchell Robinson, who had been playing visibly hurt since his “encounter” with Joel Embiid in Game 3 of the first round, has been ruled out for the rest of the playoffs. Honestly, though, losing a clearly injured Mitch, while certainly a blow, is really not that much […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks vs. Pacers, Game 1, Second Round Opener, which is a thing

The Knicks host the Indiana Pacers in Game 1 of the second round, the first time since the 2013 Playoffs that the Knicks are no doubt about it favorites in a round. And you know what? It feels pretty fucking sweet. I was bullish on the Knicks in all of their playoff series in the […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks @ Sixers, Game 6, Only Return to New York for Second Round Opener, which I say is a thing

In all seriousness, the Knicks are obviously in the much better situation than the Sixers. The Knicks just need to split these two games, while the Sixers need to win both games (which will also mean beating the Knicks three games in a row). So just relax. The Knicks will probably close the Sixers out […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks vs Sixers, Game 5, No Return to Philly Opener, which I say is a thing

As I noted last time, I’m on vacation early this week, so it’s hard for me to follow this awesomeness. I watched Game 4 on my phone in a friend’s house (Cable sucks, but I love being able to get NBA games wherever I am in the country). He had a phone stand, so we […]

2024 Playoff Thread: Knicks vs Sixers, Game 4, Whiny Jerk Embiid Opener, which is a thing

The whole world now knows that Joel Embiid is a whiny jerk, and this game is the “opener” to the world of that fact, so let’s hope that he has a terrible game, and the Knicks destroy the Sixers. Sadly, Mitchell Robinson will miss the game, but hopefully Sims has some…ahem…hard fouls this afternoon. Six […]
