We're sloppy as hell.

Not sure Im ever gonna understand Bridges

All those fans wasted so much money. And the Celtics are whiny bitzaches.

game 4 is a must win

We shat the bed…

They'll program them to hate the Knicks, too.

11% from three?! Smh
NYStateOfMind @ 5/10/2025 5:25 PM
Simple math: 12% for 2 made 3-pt shots and 62% free throw percentage = blowout loss. At least I'm watching the game on mute, suggest you do the same.

Not soft in the least but he can be uncoordinated quite often.

So predictable as well.

We all hoped they would come out today and play a game for the ages (think Clyde game 7 type back in 70s) BUT in the deep recesses of our Knick fandom you know to expect a complete zero game in this situation (so many times).

Chickenshat basketball up this big. They are punks.

Your strategy of putting another big down low with no ability to play 5 feet from the hoop and then just post up KAT all game is a horrible one.

Knicks needed to try something different. No way was Boston going to keep missing so many 3s. Only way forward was to use our size against them. Now the pressure is on NY.

Yea, unbiased bettors probably ate real good today. Same scenario played out in Indy yesterday.

Celtics are better team -> due for a hot shooting night -> desperate to keep their season alive while Knicks are comfy unexpectedly up 2-0. Recipe for a blowout.

They hack-a-Mitch, you put one of theirs in the morgue.

I like the big lineup but overdoing KAT post ups to counter Bostons 3s ain’t it.

Joe giving Mitch some confidence at the FT line in a 30 pt blowout seems stupid on his part
MaTT4281 @ 5/10/2025 5:35 PM
These games have me all sorts of screwed up. Feeling ok that is 'only' 26 going into the 4th.
