They (Jordan & Ewing) faced each other a total of 70 times in NBA games. Michael Jordan has a 49-21 winning record over Patrick Ewing, including a 19-8 record in Playoffs.

7 & 3 - currently Tatum and his Celtics hold the edge over Brunson and the Knicks. It's early, but this year has been looking like a similar discrepancy in roster talent.

April 11th 2024 was our last victory- and I wonder if they were even trying that game given that it nearing the end of the season. I don't remember.

Is this the ultimate reverse jinx thread?
Or complete capitulation?

If the game is close, yea. But, I can see the Celtics crushing and cruising early - up 20 in the opening period.

And Thibs would play the bench no matter how far ahead the Celts are.

if you go by the picks on the gamepicker - it is complete capitulation- there is only one optimist picking the knicks to win right now, and that may yet change.

Would love this to be a reverse jinx thread- but the Celtics aren't winning because of a jinx. They just have way better talent and a much better system.

I am in the fire thibs camp after reading some of the comments in the last game thread.

I don't know if a different coach would do better. We have a nice squad. I like to think they can do better. I do think some different strategies would help.

But maybe having two turnstile defender like JB & Kat are too much for anything- coach/system to overcome when we are playing against elite teams.

But our struggles (sure, we won) against young, athletic teams is surely worrying.

Dadiet scores 20 off the bench in first half, then doesn't get a minute in second half, my prediction

We are either nervous or we just dont seem to have the right strategy against this team.
