Why in the world would he gamble there? It also seemed like a lazy gamble.

I forgot to mention in the GameThreads but Coby White is playing really well. Very shifty, almost in a more athletic Brunson type style. Almost.

Yet jimmy the zombie got up and played the rest of the game? WTF?

Boston lucky

Jimmy hurt
Randle hurt
Giannis hurt
Embiid definitely not 100%
Mitch not 100%

Hope Bojan is ok.
Mitch should be improving and get his timing back.
PHilly got some age on them and playoffs wear a man down.
Other than Randle (big “Other”) knicks in good shape now.
Playoffs with parity is. Like a tournament. A lot of things can happen. Seedings are not as apparent outside of Bostons and its 63 wins. 13 games more than the no. 2 seed!

Long way to go but how cool would an ECF be with KP vs. knicks?

Only second to none to Mavs vs. Knicks finals

Hate trae. WOuldn’t want him on the team for free. hawks have big issues and i don’t think keeping trae and trading DM is the solution

Happy for COby. Wasn’t that long ago he was viewed as a lottery bust. Based on no facts i suspect his revival had a lot to do with Zach not being in the lineup hogging the ball. Zach is another guy i wouldn’t want on this team for similar reasons to Trae. Their ball hogging hurts the teams whereas Brunson’s does not. I think Brunson hogs but if there is an open guy with s better opportunity he willingly passes. Trae and Lavine have tunnel vision (like Julius) where a lot (Not all) of their passes are them bailing out of a situation or trying to do some hotdogging pass

Love it when Trae fucks up

Chicago, the opportunity is yours

Man, just a cpl buckets short of playing Miami without Jimmy in a 7 game series. Luck not necessarily coming our way, but still have every confidence we'll earn our wins :)

my god if Thibs played Butler for 3 qtrs on a busted knee this fanbase would lose it

Did anyone watch the game last night? Butler was literally limping, did nothing in the 2nd half. I thought coach Spo was the genius of adjustments? Maybe adjust by sitting the guy who can't run?

He shot 3-10 in the 2nd half and was -13 with 9 points. Played the 2nd half both ineffective and clearly injured.

Yes, playing Jimmy was a huge mistake - he really wasn't effective and Philly put up 66 pts in the 2nd half including 36 in the 4th and Miami struggled. Herro missed a lot of shots. He didn't have an excuse, he really needed to knock down some of his looks. Heat missed Duncan Robinson and obviously Rozier as I think Sixers gave them some looks on 3s that they couldn't make.

Spo is overrated.

His go-to move is “insert Jimmy”!

also "hurt" someone on other team. I have no doubt they would cross a line of physicality on Brunson, e.g., step on him etc.

Lowry picks Knicks over Sixers for this stretch run and it’s a whole different story for NY.

Same goes for next year but man he is 38

The fallacy of the predetermined outcome. We have no idea what Lowry would have been on the Knicks. Lowry could have signed and been Alec Burke or Shake Milton. Or heck in the playoffs Lowry might suck and Burks or Milton find time to contribute
. Expect a surprise or two that's what this season has taught me
