I made the comparisonearlier that this Knicks team is really similar to the 2021 Hawks, but on second thought that is obviously untrue. The Hawks made it to the ECF that year, after all.

I think it's pretty obvious that no team can overcome those injuries and the fact they got to 7 games against a team that was only missing Benedict Mathurin kind of played into the outcome.

Nobody deserves to be compared to the Hawks. Doltos posted:I don't get the Haliburton hate but TJ McConnell deserves every bit of hatred I want someone to punt him TJ is most certainly a "That loving guy" when he doesn't play for your team. And now he has that little jump shot 5 foot out he somehow developed that makes him even more spikey for opponents to watch. Anyone who hates Hali is a weirdo though. He was the same guy on the Kings as he is now, all in and wants to make his team and teammates better...he's just had a few years to grow his own game.

it was really funny when the pacers were running a full court press, poorly, looking like a low tier high school team trying to do it and the knicks still had nothing

That game sucked. Indiana was going all out but I don’t think they have any shot against the Celtics unless they get the crazy shooting luck they had the last two games. The East outside of Boston is crazy weak this year. This Knicks team in the playoffs was a lottery team after all their injuries.

mcmagic posted:they got hosed in game 3 and should've won the series in 5 tbh Reffing was whatever they got hosed by them in 3 but they also gave up a ton of scoring in two of the last four games. It was pure luck and completely unsustainable but they still got beat by the Pacers, not the refs. It's not the zebras fault that Nembhard cans every off balanced, fumbled shot.

The Knicks could have at least beat up the Celtics a little, made them fight for it. Crazy how this went to 7 when they were missing half their players. Playing the Pacers is like playing a pickup game where no one tries on D - I'd be pleasantly surprised if they can win a couple against the Celtics but I don't have much hope. I like it when new teams win a chip so it will be a huge bummer if OKC, Pacers and Timberwolves all get bounced.

Anyway I’m really happy for Myles Turner. Lived on the trade block for years but now has had a couple of career years since Hali joined the team and finally gets to enjoy and be a key part of some playoff success. Hope he retires a Pacer

Now that the East is down to Indy/Boston, I think the best way to improve the NBA is obvious. Eastern teams play 60 games, then start their playoffs. Eastern Conference champ is given the 10 seed in the West, when the actual playoffs start.

As down bad as I am about being a Wiz fan, at least I'm not a Knicks fan It'll never ever get better for either of us, but at least my team's last championship was more recently in the 1970s than theirs

I like the idea of playing 7 games and chalking up the results to “aw it’s all luck.” Why not just flip a quarter instead?
