Nets lost. Guessing their three fans are upset.

Durant's mom, Kyrie's mom... who else?

[EDIT]

Oh right, Harden's mom

You have to add at least 20 of Durants alternative twitter handles.

Bob Myers on the playoffs: "That two feet of space you had in the regular season is two inches. You watch how many players cannot make a shot in the playoffs and shoot 42% in the regular season."

When I read that quote I thought of our shooters. By the end of the season we had a bunch around 40% 3pters. When the postseason started we could no longer buy a 3.

I really miss the Houston/Sprewell Knicks.

Don’t forget H20 contract and the endless debate over how stupid it was when he opted out.
Or Larry’s back.....
Or camby delicate nature then.
Annual Spree training camp issues.
Ewings ego and contact albatross.
They were a fun team at times but endlessly frustrating too.
8th seed upset over Miami in strike short season was capstone but bloated the era.

Stars dropping like flies in Brooklyn.

Time for Durant to show and prove.

Remember Giannis also injured KP's knee in Garden? Coincidence?

Two players made of glass get hurt? One thinks the world is flat.

POrter Jr can’t play a lick of defense. He was lost. His back hurt does not excuse him from missing his assignments.
He is blind to his teammates and does not pass.
If his shot goes cold he is a liability.
I know his back was not great and they were forced to play him but he was exposed badly by PHX.

Show and prove what? That starphucqing for chips doesn't always work out?
That the effed up three are all out of here after next season?

I'm rooting for Philly and the Bucks. Once they both win, I don't care what happens.

KnickDanger @ 6/14/2021 10:04 AM
It’s pretty sad that once the Knicks lost I get more pleasure out of seeing certain teams (comprised of certain players) lose rather than from rooting for any team to win. But first round exits for the Mavs and Lakers plus a second round elimination for our local super friends would translate to joy for me.

If anything, it shows why he's going to get max. Even players you think should be 1b get max level contracts.

Disagree. Without Middleton Bucks would not be as successful as they have been this year. Without Randle Knicks would be exactly what they were before. A joke. Middleton was a big part in turning the series around with his 35 and 15. That's what you want from a max. Something Randle is capable of.

Or Charlie football doing squat in the Finals
Or how glad I am Chris Dudley isn't in that pic...

That shortened '99 season was electric. Good times. Thibs was on the bench!

They're probably just finding out the results. They were out shopping during the game.

Well remember, the tankathon crowd would actually welcome us being a joke.

Is Kurt Thomas the guy in the middle?
