Can someone define Karma since it's being cited so much ??? I think some of you are utilizing a very simplified understanding of it. Don't know if it really surfaces in a short term sport series but whatever. If Karma is true in sports the way some of you are using it, then what evil did the Knicks perpetrate since we suffered so many injuries, if some of you are right then the universe taught us a lesson. Can't be the Knicks lost all our strengths because of random stuff but other players you don't like are being taught a karmic lesson.

Karma, to me, is a thick stripper who gave me the time of my life in the backroom 5 years ago. Doubt she could tell the difference between Kevin Knox or Cleansthony Early. PHUCK Karma, literally and figuratively speaking

Luka is locked in. Was dumb to let Brunson leave and corrupt to thank to save their pick, but yet they seem to be having the last laugh.

Nah, I think both are laughing. Luka is still Luka, which is awesome. Brunson now is a household name in the bright lights of NY. Win-win

Wishing Haliburton a big dose of karma, and a penicillin allergy.

Hali Cheating?
Seems if its not being called its not "Cheating". Its permitted.

I totally agree, like he knew he got away with a crime, but wanted to present as if he beat a healthy team and after they tied it at 2-2, IMO they were favored in this aeries after the 2 injuries. Everyone has injuries, but not like the playoff Knicks did. Humbie pie is on his way, maybe his nickname should be karma because he is a bitch. Haha

PS & JR rebounds are very similar per minute played. I don't need JR handling the ball, and PS creates his shot much easier. Either way, similar effects and numbers in a game. Both could do great with a healthy team. Still, rather the other guys I listed, Sabonis stays healthy. Saying they are both about the same and that the others are preferred, isn't short-changing him, they are all elite PFs in this league. Glad to have any of them.

And regarding the Siakam versus Randle comparison. I am a critic of his clutchness but prefer him to Siakam in a lot of ways. He can handle the ball and can be quite good there if he stays within his capabilities and he's a much more reliable rebounder. I am more optimistic than not that next year surrounded by more talent he'll play even better -- distributing the ball and taking opportunities when they're quality shots.

I'm all for upgrading talent but let's not short change a two time all nba

They didn't call them on their PED usage during the season so in your words McGwire, Sosa, & Canseco, to name a few, didn't cheat nor give their sport a bad look and ruin records? If it is against the rules, whether it gets called or not, it is still against the written rules. Sure you can skirt uncalled rule violations, that is a character flaw and usually a sign of a loser. Usually, better talent, heart, and coaching wins in the end. Philly abused the rules, and they are out, Indy does the same, and they will be out soon, at least the Knicks went out due to a lack of remaining talent and bodies. I'll take that any day over frauds, like Halibitchin. He has the talent to be successful without willingly violating the rules, he chooses not to and still loses.

So, yes, it is cheating. If it is permitted, change the rules or this game will escalate to All-Star game level where no one takes it serious and fewer people care to even watch anymore. Just my opinion, but I'm sure some others agree.

P.S. Cheaters shouldn't complain when they don't get away with cheating, that pushes them to a super loser. They got away with violations 4 times in a row, how dare you call it on the 5th attempt. Just smile and say you got me this time. Be glad it worked 80% of the time, crybabies. Haha

One more Celtic win to go. Can't Stand the frontrunning Pacers. I wish the Mavs would also fail to reach the finals but those trades at the deadline was exactly what they needed.

I am getting high blood pressure from all this salt.

He’s got a great system there- and I know I’ve seen the Knicks blow big leads.

But, why do I think Thibs wouldn’t have blown a nearly 20 point lead and found a way to win a game with the same roster as what Rick had yesterday.

Damn shame the Pacers look ready to be swept. Better them than us- and I think that is the only upside to us losing Games 6 & 7.

I think the January Knicks- dare I say it - up at least 2 to 1 or 3 to 0 against these Celtics.

Alpha1971 @ 5/26/2024 6:37 AM
Celtics, I haven't paid any attention to their playoffs but they played and injured Miami, and a injured Indiana and who else did they play ? Boston has a gimpy KP but seems Karma is on their side so far

Sure is fun that pacers are blowing late leads — one might say choke

Get out the brooms

I don't even know where the Pacers go from here. I think they need to blow it up, and build around their superstar.
