Knicks · The slaughter will be broadcast on ABC at 1PM - Knicks Celtics (page 1)

They (Jordan & Ewing) faced each other a total of 70 times in NBA games. Michael Jordan has a 49-21 winning record over Patrick Ewing, including a 19-8 record in Playoffs.

7 & 3 - currently Tatum and his Celtics hold the edge over Brunson and the Knicks. It's early, but this year has been looking like a similar discrepancy in roster talent.

April 11th 2024 was our last victory- and I wonder if they were even trying that game given that it nearing the end of the season. I don't remember.

Is this the ultimate reverse jinx thread?
Or complete capitulation?

Do I even continue watching after halftime?

If the game is close, yea. But, I can see the Celtics crushing and cruising early - up 20 in the opening period.

And Thibs would play the bench no matter how far ahead the Celts are.

if you go by the picks on the gamepicker - it is complete capitulation- there is only one optimist picking the knicks to win right now, and that may yet change.

Would love this to be a reverse jinx thread- but the Celtics aren't winning because of a jinx. They just have way better talent and a much better system.

I am in the fire thibs camp after reading some of the comments in the last game thread.

I don't know if a different coach would do better. We have a nice squad. I like to think they can do better. I do think some different strategies would help.

But maybe having two turnstile defender like JB & Kat are too much for anything- coach/system to overcome when we are playing against elite teams.

But our struggles (sure, we won) against young, athletic teams is surely worrying.

Ah crap sorry didn't see this game thread! Martin please delete mine!

Not expecting a win but we gotta show some fight!

Dadiet scores 20 off the bench in first half, then doesn't get a minute in second half, my prediction

How is that in the act of shooting
VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:13 PM
Knicks need to take the 3 whenever there is space
VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:14 PM
KAT looking at the official when he should be dunking
VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:15 PM
Bridges still shooting the 3 flat and short
VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:16 PM
Gonna be down double digits in 3 mins of game time.

This is actually pathetic

VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:20 PM
We are either nervous or we just dont seem to have the right strategy against this team.
VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:26 PM
This is literally Josh Hart and 4 dudes who are spooked as hell
VDesai @ 2/23/2025 1:29 PM
Bridges was signed to match up with these Boston wings, but he has been non existent in these games.

I dont think he brings it consistently enough to be a championship player
