That miami Blowout was a message, this spurs win was a a clear message that we are ready for anybody(who got next).
NO more who's getting traded, who's getting fired, will he be here next year, late night parties.
This team got together EARLY (which will be good for amare) and have been FOCUS every since, no side shows' no blockbuster trade senerio's..everybodys roles are define, contracts are set, and the chemistry is on a 1000 watts..
This team is so focus..they could call us old all day long, make AARP jokes, keep saying prigs is the oldest rookie in the history of the NBA (which he is not) this team has made strides alot quicker then anyone could have imagine..
Were GOOD, really good!!
i like this team playing with a chip on its shoulder

It makes winning that much sweeter!
This team hasn't won championship or anything, but it's simply amazing what we just seen tonight. From down 12 points with only 7:13 remaining during the 4th quarter. To up 7 points. Before actually winning by the final score of 104-100. Simply remarkable. Just witnissed a will power that stopped another team dead in their tracks. A will to win. More like cold blooded
resilience. This was the definition of resiliency during those closing moments. Still in a state of shock in regards to what just happened. What I just seen. The sudden change of events.
My stomach started to turn while down 77-89 (along with moments leading up to it). That empty feeling you get/have before the crushing blow. The reality of a loss. On the road against an elite Spurs team. True Western Conference Contenders. 7-1 overall. Our Knicks were down 77-89 with only 7:13 remaining. And then it happened. Fought back to 85-89. An 8-0 run on San Antonio's home court. Only down 4. Felton stopped the bleeding, and Kidd stuck the dagger. Found ourselves up 7 (102-95) with only 26 seconds remaining. Which is exactly when San Antonio's fans began to leave the arena.
Just seen our Knicks come from behind, more like storm back out of absolutely nowhere during the final seven minutes and thirteen seconds. Not even words can describe the type of resilience this team has played with thus far through 6 games. On the road against a previously 7-1 Spurs team is only 1 example. This is the same Spurs team in which has already beat the likes of the Thunder and Lakers. We straight up murdered those guys during the (2nd half) of the 4th quarter.
Prepared, mentally tough, resilient... whatever you wish to call it. We're on of the above. Had a stronger mental toughness when compared to Miami after hurricane Sandy. Came out ready to compete and fight for our City. Miami couldn't match our intensity on that night. People overlook the fact that we've played an Atlantic divisional rival in Philly, during a home/away series, and walked away with two victories during consecutive nights. Had our way with a streaking Dallas Mavs team. With or without Dirk, that team was playing good basketball heading into our matchup. Took care of the Magic in Orlando, dominated Orlando during the second half (especially during th 4th quarter) and just escaped with a resilient come from behind victory over an actual NBA contender.
Basketball is back in the mecca.

Couldn't have said it better.
The last time we went 6 - 0... I'm getting sick... will I have to apologize when we go to the championship game? I still won't apologize to Jimmy Dolan tho.

Just enjoy it, who give a damn about apologizing.

was skeptical but no denying that we are very good. we are proceeding with caution of course because we were burned before in past years but watching this team play, they are confident and playing excellent ball. this is against some of the best teams in the nba also so we forced our way into the conversation as one of the best in the east! for real this time.

Easy said than done. I've been the laughing stock among my friends for the past 20 years. They stopped inviting me over to their houses to watch playoff games if the Knicks are in the hunt because there will be loud cursing (I have a loud opera voice) and yelling. If I just enjoy it, it might end up back in 1994 and OJ's white bronco ruined everything and I ended up standing for 2-3 hours in agony and we eventually lost the championship. I'll try to just enjoy it again, but it's scary man.. it's scary. Maybe I'm just too old to enjoy the possibility of final victory.
We are just a veteran team now.
We kept it close throughout the game. Then closed them out when it matters. Teams like Boston have been doing the same thing for years.

Get back on your meds. Or get off your meds. Or breathe slowly through your nose and meditate on your inner Melo.
Let your soul smile, let JimmyD and the past 20 years(what the hell was wrong with the '90s?)fade off into the sea of forgetfullness. Last time I checked, little rich fat bluesboy barely even shows up to the games.
Let the balloons go.
Concentrate on the lack of back page drama for this franchise.
Open your eyes slowly. Dredge up your man voice.
WE ARE THE BEST FUHHHHHHUCKIN TEAM IN THE ENNNNN BEEEEEEEE AAAAAAAAAA!
Say it. Believe it. Live it.
It's actually easier done than typed.

While this is true, san an hasn't lost a game in there house when they had a double digit lead in the 4th since David Robinson..Even during Miami, lakers, dallas championship yrs..they all lost to the spurs in there house..this win was a significant win
