Reserving this one for the next GameThread. We will all love or hate Philc1 just a little more than we do now

We have no choice. Backs against the wall.
Personally it doesn’t matter anymore. These 2 loses reveals some serious flaws in a roster and coaching staff with championship aspirations. A roster built around offensive players, who lacks playmaking, defense and no offensive continuity will never win a chip. Brown already said he’s expecting this veteran group to figure it out. Including KAT. That’s not this roster.
I'd be shocked if we don't win game 4.
I expect a loss. Atlanta has our number.
It's more like we have to win this, otherwise it's all over. I hope we do

This is how I feel.
I was a big advocate of the Brunson signing but, I'm ready to move on from him after this season.
"Knicks in 5"...... have to hope its not the other way around.
ATL is impressive.

I disagree that Atlanta is that impressive. Have you watched other games in these playoffs. There are some teams playing at a very high level that neither the Knicks nor Hawks are sniffing. Watch some Boston, SAS, OKC. We're in trouble against those teams.

Regrouping and winning against ATL would be the minimum expectation for this team.
They were at different times touted as the best candidate in the East. No longer.
A one game reversal after 3 disappointing games is not much of a benchmark for what they will have to do to contend.
ATL is young and athletic, but not seasoned. There are more experienced teams that are bigger and more physical than ATL.
There is nothing to take away from this series so far to say they are ready for the bigger challenges ahead.
We're about to find out if they are even ready to be consistent for the rest of this series and repeat the defensive intensity and execution through KAT of just one game so far.

Fanatics on both sides are some of the dumbest people alive.
