This is your classic trap game and the Knicks took the bait.

Man... Can't really complain after 9 games... But this one really hurts.

Oh well I should've known not to create game threads feels like I'm a jinx when I do.

9 game winning streak snapped 😢

no energy. this is the hangover from playing so hard so long against the celts.

We just needed something more from McBride and Obi- and they really didn't give us anything late.

How many times have we been on the opposite end, playing a good team when we're eliminated.

A minute left, down five--hard to envision a favorable outcome for this one.

Quickley and Randle bricked an awful lot of shots that they normally make.

We win if the offense was ran through RJ. He had it going and Randle / IQ was off. The defense was also suspect.

This lost confirms who we are. A team that can beat any team in the nba and lose to any team in the nba.

I know Brunson was out. but this game shows how hard a seven game series will be vs. an elite team. A real marathon. Why I consider a deep playoff run "gravy" this season.

You know what?

I don't even care we lost tonight without Jalen Brunson.

💔 Heartbroken to know we (finally) lost a game (since Josh Hart) but I'm extremely proud of these kids + Coach Thibs for not only that 9 game winning streak but also for bringing us so much joy.

Big 4 game road trip coming up in order to get back on track.

I’ll take a playoff win. That’s a step forward.

I don’t think home court advantage works for us. What’s the point in trying to get to the 4th seed? Seems like we a better road team.
