I agree I think the “destination” stuff is ESPN millennial low-attention span noise the Knicks are a desirable place to play now for free agent targets like Reggie Jackson

Refs hosing the Bucks in the 4th. Couple of iffy fouls on Crowder early and Booker should have foulwd out just now. Giannis with an incredible follow, but how do you not call the obvious foul on Booker. Also not a smart play by Booker there.

Jae Crowder is just going to ground any time he is touched
VDesai @ 7/14/2021 11:31 PM
Just an incredible block by Giannis and then a huge steal from Holiday

Don't know why but I'm rooting for Bucks. Great finish

Giannis seems like such a genuinely nice guy, it's hard not to root for him

And he's doing shit like this on a knee that folded in half the wrong way. Incredible. His legs still look like KP pencils. I just don't get it.
Fast twitch muscles are a great thing to be born with.

Yeah Im rooting for the Bucks because Giannis is easy to root for. He has his flaws, but man he's fun to watch and I love his attitude. Also Jae Crowder's 4th Q flopping was easy to root against. Giannis is giving it his all this series. Tied 2-2. Hard to call from here. Suns looked way better the first 2 games, but Bucks have taken momentum.

He eliminated the nets and Hawks. Gotta like that as a Knicks fan

I really liked the concept. Its not without flaws but it kept the last month of the season relevant and under normal scheduling keeps teams from resting star players against lower seeded teams. You think its good to buy tickets months in advance, take the family perhaps for a birthday celebration, then learn star player did not come to Charlotte on the second nite of a back to back as he has “a cold”? Keeping the games relevant down the stretch as much as possible improves the product and interest. Boosting attendance/viewership is the end game and you do it by imporoving the product.
