Go time! Queue up the lovely Rebecca and let the games begin!
All the words don’t matter now. Predictions? Put your money down and let it rip. If not sit back and chill. Expect a split and 7 games. Why? Identical records and why the hell not. You can talk yourself into thinking why we better and down interstate 85 to ATL they doing the same thing! They got fans! Its just most of ATL don’t care about sports. Mecca or not.......
IT all gets sorted on the court!

I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict a 4-1 Knicks win. At the end of the day I think this team wants it more and has better chemistry. I don't think the end of game hierarchy being established in Atlanta, I think John Collins wants to hit the game winners.

Bro I paid a looooottt of money to talk to someone about the fact that she may not be a virgin any more and now I'm just seeing the proverbial background headboard list and OMFG all of this is unraveling faster than a Julius double team turnover

Prediction? Im clueless. Really. I cannot measure ATL's heart based on reading NY centric media or any natioal writers quotes. That Nate Mac is pissing his pants or playiong games doe not matter.
Thibs earns his players trust and respect by bring preperations they have not seen before and that sets the tone. What other teams do or don't is on them. Nate has his team playing very well!!!
What Think? I don't know. What I hope? Knicks win either by sweep or 7th game. Just win baby!!!!

Randle and RJ have a tendency to get a bit jittery and try too hard sometimes, hopefully not tonight- I'll handle the nervous wreck side of things for the both of them!

Realistic expectations are a competitive, hard fought series going 6 or 7. Two teams with the same record, both well coached, both finishing strong. I like our chances and even believe we might match up well -- on the other hand I know the Hawks -- or just about any team -- can explode. That and I am a Knicks fan who has been beaten for the last two decades plus. That said -- I believe!

Just, please ref's, for the love of god, don't give Trae Young the benefit of the whistle every time he pulls one of his ridiculous flops/ contorted jumps into the defender

Yes, I like our chances. I like their chances. Both teams should have the Yips to some degree.
I want so see Frank play the first shift over payton. Just balls to the wall on Trae. ANything he gives us offnseively is a gift. Then take him out and go with Rose and Quick down the stretch.
But fact is Payton got us here. Knicks finished last two months strong while Payton didn't? In Thibs we trust.
I'll be rocking my Glen Gondrozak vintage jersey, I'll put on some vintage 70's double knit Thigh high "Gym shorts" and some tube socks pulled up just south of my Knee with my high top Pony sneakers and my gifted from Jrod Dr J NY Net sweatbands still encrustd with his DNA! In my Knick Shrine will be NBA trading cards of former knicks including Phil "Action" Jackson, Clyde, Toby Knight, Travis Knight, Otis Day and the Knights, the ever present Ticky Burden, Moochie Norris, and Paul Westphal.

They should be desperate to shut down Julius. And Julius should be looking to break records for assists.

Payton gets so much hate, it would be great if he could show us all up by having a beast of a game

And if he doesn't, then we hold onto our scapegoat in the event things go south. Win win!
