Who was I kidding?

Who was I trying to fool?

Usually I come into games wanting to see a blowout by 20+ points.

But not tonight. Ever since 2020-2021 beat down these ATL Hawks have always scared me;

I'll be thrilled with just a 1 point win.

I lied.

I wanna beat these MFKRS by 45-50 Points and watch us do to them in the 2nd half (what we just did to them in the 1st half).

Knicks: 66.
A-T-L: 44.

+22.

And I wanna see Obi Toppin play the entire 4th Q as long as we outscore ATL here in the 3rd Q.

Let's all try our best to enjoy these final 24 minutes as Knicks fans because this will be our last Knicks game until the 24th (9 days away)

What a 1st half!!!

RJ has most minutes. Fans give up on him but fortunately Thibs does not. Just like he didn't give up on Randle.
Panos @ 2/15/2023 8:44 PM
If Trae is going to get all these ticky-tacky fouls might as well knock him on his ass
HofstraBBall @ 2/15/2023 8:46 PM
JHart. Two and a half excellent games and counting.
My boy Grimes, struggling since he got here.
1-5 so far.
Move to second unit imminent.

Agreed, can't touch him and he usually creates the contact.

Grimes feet were pointing away from the rim, when he took his last shot...weird

It looked like the ball went where he was aimed. Miss left

Looked like Randle was literally falling back quickly to get out of the way, knowing he had no chance to block the shot, but still got called for a foul.
CleaverGreene @ 2/15/2023 9:08 PM
I don't follow Atlanta or watch them, except when they play the Knicks...I can't understand why they don't have a better record with the personnel they have.

RJ and Grimes 1-11 from 3pt

HofstraBBall @ 2/15/2023 9:13 PM
RJ and Randle need to set JB up a more.
GustavBahler @ 2/15/2023 9:16 PM
Strong move by Randle
HofstraBBall @ 2/15/2023 9:17 PM
Big tip by Hart.
GustavBahler @ 2/15/2023 9:19 PM
Love to see Randle in the paint, beasting, when his shot isnt falling.
GustavBahler @ 2/15/2023 9:20 PM
Hartenstein is giving us timely buckets when the lead starts slipping.
HofstraBBall @ 2/15/2023 9:21 PM
IHart! The little things.
NYKMentality @ 2/15/2023 9:22 PM
Not a very good 3rd Q. @ all.

But nonetheless up 15 points heading into the 4th.

Big time 4th Quarter close-out opportunity here because ATL refused to 3rd Q quit just then.

Just give him the damn ball!
His GF must be watching.

HofstraBBall @ 2/15/2023 9:24 PM
Curry, I mean Toppin with the three!
VDesai @ 2/15/2023 9:26 PM
Bad non call on Hart he was hacked
HofstraBBall @ 2/15/2023 9:26 PM
