This last shot was insane by Mikal

Agreed, but get some damn arch on those FTs.

We finally beat Boston while they were hitting 3s.

Sucks for Tatum, wish him a speedy recovery (let's say a week?)

I don’t know how you come up gimpy on a dunk attempt and hold your hamstring, go back to the locker room, and later emerge unscathed unless Anne Hathaway was treating you back in said locker room. OG. You lucky dog

I meant ACL tears.

Until the coach pulled me and said I was moving super slow and had no lift on my jumpers or rebound attempts. All tears I've seen have required carrying to the locker room.

You sound crazy. Even though I did walk off but that was my second one. The first time you like who the hell just kicked me? And they carried me all the way to my car.

Not me Ive seen football players walk off with full tears.

I didn't see Bad Bunny, but I saw some mad hunnies.

Praise whoever takes care of JB when he exits.

Yes - he was big. OG and even Kat (who is frustrating as hell) had some big plays.

Loved the Jalen/Deuce/Mikal/OG/Mitch line-up towards end.

Josh Hart hard for me to watch these days === just don't feel him but do like him.

Bring in Wright. I liked the way he played. Size and smarts with vet savvy.

Sad to see injuries but we need not apologize as we had this team down 3-1 before the injury. Knicks path to the Finals just opened up in a huge way.

And we actually made shots like a real NBA team -- so much nicer when some shots are falling.

There was about 7-8 minutes of that 4th quarter where we were making shot after shot but could not stop Celtics on other end (some fantom calls by S Foster as well that had me very scared).

Mikal needs more time on the floor when JB is not.

Free throws be damned, Mitch has been a force this series and has an absolutely absurd +/- rating for the series

Tough. You might have to keep Holiday and KP and try to move one of them down the line. If I'm a Boston fan, I'd be horrified by the idea of Brown carrying my team for all of next season

We still need 1 more game but damn KP has been such a turd/dud for them this series.

Even Kat with all his faults put up 23/11 on 11-15 shooting. Watching Thibs with Knicks up 10 late and Kat shoves Holiday out of bounds to grab offensive rebound with Knicks in penalty. Thibs yelling at Kat how stupid he is...lol.

The eyes confirm this story. Cavs series was not a fluke
