This guy is just so pathetic, such a clown show, how he ever gets a single call from an NBA official is beyond me.

I'd just look at him and choke on my whistle all night -- complete douchebag --- the largest I've ever seen in NBA.

He’s not even doing basketball any more

My initial negative thought is THANK GOD we didn't need Deuce to score more than 3 points on 1-6 shooting.

Last thought is Kat was great on boards/passing/D BUT he can't revert to FOUT TROUBLE again. Been so good for a long time but 3 straight games with dumb fouls and I know Embid is an ALL TIME ASS-HOLE.

I thought KAT got called on very Ricky tack stuff tonight. Refs blow

And I’ll add bridges. He was not afraid to shoot. Hart needs to shoot more quickly — for the teams sake!! But man he contributed in every way possible

Yes - ticky-tack but he's putting himself in situations where the refs can call it. He can't help himself with little hip shoves and little pushes --- just hope he can stay out of trouble going forward - EMBID is a train wreck by himself....draws you into all kinds of ****.

This is the 2nd year in a row Bridges is stepping up in the playoffs when we need him most. Fans will forget about it next season and dog him again.

Mikal superb D but I think Maxey/Edgecombe just don't jive with Embid on offensive end (too much deferral required) despite what happened in Boston against a bunch of scrubinos.

Yabusele could've started for the Celtics that last series. BTW, this payback for Philly pumping up Yaba's value and tricking is into signing him.

Even bad Jose on a bad night is like MJ compared to what that over-weight chunk brought to Knicks --- we was tricked big time.

I love this play when you know the team is going to double Brunson. Mike Brown is coaching his butt off.

Well I'll just say he needs to keep it going - easy to cheer for this Mikal (BRILLIANT) and he did suck for a long time plus looked like someone stole his puppy dog. It does come down to playoffs and when he is clicking we seem to be at our best.

It was a rope a dope strategy to get more minutes for Mitch. Knicks have been preaching next man up all season, this was a case of next next man up.

Yeah and when you have smart role playing vets like those guys filling their exact need, it’s beautiful basketball

The **** he was throwing in early was just disgusting and you knew he wasn't keeping that up - basically did same thing in game 2.

Playoff P should be Playoff D- Disappear.

Mitchy changed it up and went Foreman vs Frazier on Embid.

Bench lead by Sham-King (and without Deuce) outscored their bench 29-11 --- BOOM
