Knicks · Game Thread: Knicks vs Celtics @ 1pm. Without JR, the Knicks try to win their first playoff series since the Van Gundy era. (page 1)

We need Felton to come up big in JR's absence. Hopefully we get some points from Copeland and Novak. It would be amazing to sweep Boston in Round 1 but I am OK with this. Boston has a lot of pride and without JR, I think a sweep is unlikely.

I just want to remind to everyone how long it has been since the Knicks won a playoff series. The forum description (Van Gundy's civic) was actually relevant back then.

This was the team and we watched and this was on TV

GO NY!!

Stealing a line from Moses infamous Fo', Fo', Fo'....Let go for Fo'!

These Boston clowns are talking about being angry at the Knicks showboating. Really..?

REALLY?!

You freaking dare to talk about showboating when Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnet are on your team? How many times have these clowns played around embarrassing us after a clutch shot or something? And they dare accuse us?

I don't care if they are just wounded and trying to find motivation, they are freaking a-holes and I can't wait to see the Knicks end their season.

Beat the C!!

So with the offense in shambles, Rivers again stressed the burden on the defense.

“You have to take their firepower away. They have offensive firepower, and we don’t want to get into a gunfight with them,” Rivers said. “Let’s put it that way. Let’s try to be anti-NRA and take some of their guns away. Which I am.”

Well, JR did them a favor and beat them to it...

Go Knicks!

I guess they learned it by watching the C's.

Exactly what I was thinking- the Celtics complaining about showboating!

AND complaining about the JR elbow being a dirty play- this is the team with KG!

Let's put these clowns down!

Yeah, those fucking bows.

Showboat this, assholes.

Screw the Celtics and their Crying!!! I'm LOVING the way the Knicks have trashed the C's and they can't lose badly enough for me. All the YEARS of PP and KG making dirty plays and laughing at the Knicks... Man I hope we do sweep them today and send them and their fans home to lick their wounds. GO KNICKS!!!!

The Celtics are a bunch of hypocrites. remember how many times pierce and garnett showboated when they beat the knicks in the playoffs. How about when Pierce went to mid court and took a bow. Its funny when the show is on the other foot and they are on the verge of getting swept they cry like little girls. I really hope we sweep these clowns even without JR

Wonder what Jeff 'Two-Face' Green shows up. He's the kind of player that would drive me insane if he was on my team. He can switch from looking like an unstoppable beast on both sides of the court, to completely invisible- he's more inconsistent than JR!

Speaking of which, it'll be tough without him- we lose a large chunk of our bench scoring, and it'll allow Boston to focus more on Melo and Felton. Someone has to step up- hopefully we don't get so desperate we turn to Q-Brick!

Cope and even Shump before Q-Brick.

Someone else will step up. Let's stop calling JR a bench player. He plays starter minutes. Someone will earn those minutes tonight and pick up the slack.

LET'S GO COPE!!!!

Te refs are swallowing the whistles this game.

Celtics playing their best ball. Knicks need to withstand their punch and keep it close.
