  1. The fact that BSPN creates the narrative of Trae being a foul baiter while this crap goes on is ridiculous.
  2. Terrible call on that foul on Embiid. Calls have killed any momentum for us this game.
  3. The Sixers have adjusted defensively and have really disrupted the Hawks and their flow. I don’t see an adjustment this game but they had better come out ready to go next game.
  4. I don’t know how, but we HAVE to stop Harris from getting into the lane.
  5. How did Trae even see that developing? That pass blew my mind.
  6. The amount of simple mistakes we’ve made….killing us.
  7. Give Philly credit, they’re making it tough. I wonder if they can keep up this kind of pressure though.
  8. We’re going to need something from the forward spot without Hunter.
  9. I told y’all! Bogi is that X factor!!!! Huerter not far behind though too. He has been impressive these playoffs.
  10. Man, you get some of these coaches in the playoffs a s they just clam up. Case of a tight sphincter @JayBirdHawk?
  11. Toppin and Quickley should’ve gotten more minutes for the Knicks but it’s to our advantage. Can we just put this team away please?
  12. Yeah, Knicks are just not that good. We’ll have to clean this up if we move on and face Philly. Somehow we’re up by more than 10. One run from us and it’s over.
  13. I know it was a different injury but I'm sure we all remember KD trying to play through a major injury in the Finals....it's just not a good idea. This doesn't bode well for Philly and I feel for Embiid. Seemed like a really good opportunity for them this year but if the cards play in our favor it would be nice if we can get to round 2 and take advantage.
  14. Sure, but just because one guy doesn't show up doesn't mean they'll lose. All it takes is a bad game by the Wiz, which to me is inevitable regardless of what Simmons does. Randle has played like crap for the Knicks but they still managed to get one against us because we just didn't show up as a team.
  15. I can’t see this one going past 6 games, even without Embiid. Westbrook is bound to be too aggressive and make enough mistakes for the Sixers to capitalize on.
  16. I definitely did a double take but wasn’t about to question another man’s business or weird fetish.
  17. That’s what I love to hear from a coach. Makes adjustments and admits it was the right call to make that change. That makes me feel good about him as our coach in these playoffs and the ability to adjust and to feel better that some of those kinks are worked through from game 2.
  18. They’re low in bball IQ, they’re sh*t talking isn’t even clever, and their pizza is overrated. Yeah, I said it. Whaddayagonnadoooabowdit tough guy Vinnie, eh? Spit on me?
  19. It's worth bringing these to the table since Nate Dogg is getting a little bit of heat from the media. https://www.si.com/nba/2021/05/27/hawks-bench-nate-mcmillan-knicks-tie-series Stubbornness can almost always be to the detriment of the team so I hope he makes some adjustments for game 3. He's a smart guy so hopefully he doesn't clam up and stick with his plan too much, you have to be flexible as things change throughout the course of the game. It was a good call leaving Lou in game 1 but he rode the bench way too much in game 2.
  20. What gets me is that people think the chanting, etc. works on seasoned players. You don’t think that’s going to give them extra motivation? I’d rather not poke a bear and let the Hawks play do the talking. I am slightly concerned as to what the crowd will be like, especially with the Knicks playoff drought. I’m sure NY fans will be itching to get in the arena.
  21. Trae has always been a top tier player. Now the media and general public are getting a taste of what we’ve known.
  22. I'm glad he chose the NBA instead of the mafia. Either way, he's a scary dude to have to face.
  23. Randle was off but Burks was also super hot, plus we didn’t get the calls. Even if we don’t win the next game I’m feeling good about this series. Ice Trae son!
  24. Bogi with that X factor. Such an assassin. Coming right down to the wire. We need to steal this one with Randle off his game.
  25. Nate Dogg coming in aggressive with the check. If we win the series it’s checkmate. Ladadadada! Nate has this quiet calm demeanor but those are the ones you have to worry about. He’s quiet because he’s planning his next move.
