I vote for “analytically, suck it!” Has the right NY vibe for this team

I felt so bad for him when he blew the layup. . That could haunt a player for the rest of their lives. And then he goes and does his usual non-boxout BS. I was Soo pissed off at him for not boxing out

Usually he’s fine ball hunting (not condoning it) but he was just standing there waiting for it and castle pulled “a Hart” on Hart grabbing it out of no place. I am so happy that he leaned a lesson that wasn’t lifelong painful

I cannot imagine any of this happening without him on the floor.

Jalen does legendary clutch stuff so he is irreplaceable in his own unique way, but OG is the glue that binds this team together.

I'm certain this team wouldn't be where they are now without OG. He's the difference between the Knicks being a good team and a team that can do great things.

When I look back on this team its essence to me will be defined by the presence of OG Anunoby.

With all due respect there are so many guys who have been critical which is why this team is so special.

KAT and his massive turn around
Mikal and Landry going nuclear at times plus D
Mitch for stretches
Hart for everything at different times including hitting 3 when they matter (kind of like Marcus smart)
Jose for being fearless
And yes OG who played a monster game yesterday including defending Wemby for stretches.

I hope deuce gets out of his funk and joins that list too

If they keep this attitude, I hope they win nothing. I was truly pulling for them against OKC, but then they started copying them and now they have turned themselves into a very dirty team that it’s too easy to root against.

I agree. They have stigmatized themselves by their actions. The one neanderthall who is impressed by their bully tactics is Shaq which comes as no surprise.

Wemby is an intelligent person and he's only 22 so he will grow up, but his joker-like smirk when Brunson bounced off the floor and confronted him exposed an inner quality that may be who he really is at this time.

Wemby has good reason to feel entitled, because he is. But character is shown not by how entitled you are, but by how much you show your entitlement.

Wemby is showing he thinks he can do anything he wants without consequence. The NBA has enabled this and Wemby is carrying his privilege poorly this series.

Yes and I’ll add to it his taunting of Mitch. Mitch just came out publicly about his mental illness challenges and there’s wemby taunting him up the floor. He should have been called for a tech; nba has a no taunting rule.

Super smug. Glad that he missed both FTs at critical time. Choker.

Just re-watch it again and again. OG is MVP. Love Brunson but the OG block and then the tip won the game. He covered for Brunson on both sides of the floor.

Plus clutch 3s and guarding wemby for stretches. He was 7-9 from three and waving he was wide open on that last shot too but crashed the board when Jalen let it fly

Also hit that clutch 3 at end which should have been at least plus 1 if not a flagrant — he was literally knocked into spurs bench

You Boricua?

pa que lo sepa. And Jamaican and British. I was just irrestible to the chicks when I was young. I'm a real product of NYC Love NYC and live and die with the Knicks. I grew up playing handball and stick all in the playgrounds, cycling around, exploring the subway system to learn about the City. Spent time in Museums, parks, theatres, venues, friends apartments to learn about all the parts of the city and its culture. Played in fire hydrants, tasted girls of every flavor and color, shook every hand, from the projects of the South Bronx to a middle aged man with a mortgage and a family. Love NYC and live the Knicks !

Sounds like a life very well lived so far! Kudos, fellow Boricua. I was born and raised in PR and you know we have a strong connection to NY, so once I started loving hoops, I fell in love with the Knicks! What a run we are witnessing! Definitely added to the list of great life experiences!

Cheers!
