Really speaks to the culture. High praise from Ian

"The Knicks have shown all season that they can win games they aren’t supposed to. It speaks to a confidence among the group.

I’ve covered this team long enough to know what a losing team looks, feels and sounds like. This group exudes none of those traits. One NBA person familiar with the dynamic of this team also spent a lot of time around the 2021-22 Warriors during their championship run. This person says the belief among this Knicks group is similar to what they observed in Golden State. I don’t mention this to suggest that the Knicks are going to win a title this season, but they carry themselves like a group that expects to win every night, no matter the circumstances."

Super tired this morning (getting too old for this! ) but super psyched! There is just nothing like playoffs at the Garden! We needed to get this first one cause we always seem to go on and loss a series when we lose game one at the Garden.

So freaking proud of Deuce! The game changed when he came into the game. He outscored the entire Sixers team in the second quarter by himself 13-12! So proud and happy for Mitch too! Completely shutdown Embiid in the 4th quarter! Embiid didn't score and went 0/5! And what can you say about Josh Hart? He always seems to hit the clutch threes. Went 3/3 in the fourth! And this rebounding just demoralizes teams.

Great sign we were able to win with Brunson shooting so poorly. But he will back in game two guaranteed.

Got to make adjustments on Maxey. Too many easy layups.

Strongly disagree. Gus is fun and has a nice chemistry with Clyde.

Doris Burke is unlistenable but I'll be at the Garden for Game 1.

Seriously on Gus - in my view Gus is a GREAT listen - fun, alive and excited.

Marv is by far the greatest Knick announcer EVER.

Doris & Breen (so overrated) and BOTH could not stop blo*ing Embid.

I hear her, and other singing a different tune. Its not for them to expound love when that happens.
Knicks winning and Jalen putting up gaudy numbers has earned a lot of respect.
I find some have issues with any women speaking up? Ok.
That Becky Hammon and Candace Parker talking about him is at that level and debating it is itself quite a feat.
They do make some valid points and if Jalen is to dispel the notion that small players, when the beat on a team does not carry teams to chips, well then let him prove them wrong!

Doris Burke has been gushing about Jalen and very complimentary about knicks. I find her mostly objective. Perhaps a women calling out bad play or being critical bothers some people? Knicks have not exactly been perennial playoff contributors the last 23 years and have won two series in that time. Six times in 23 years, won two series in that the. The other 4 first round bounce.
Asinine coaching hires, Isiah, the forced Walsh hire, and numerous starphuchs in that time. Isiah as Team GM? Then Grunwald with the "Isiah whisperer" post AnuchaGate, then Mills hire only to be supplanted by Phil, then back to mills?
Some bad **** on the court. What's n color announcer suppose to say when things go bad?

Yea Doris is as objective as you will find on the National circuit. Much better than someone like Richard Jefferson for example. JJ is a rising star in the world of commentary. He's really good.

DORIS IS BRUTAL

Deuce was REMARKABLE—— such a clutch Grimes like performance

Mitch stood tall and proud and did exactly what he needs to do if he wants minutes - GREAT GAME

Bogey turned the tide to a degree because he came off bench in attack mode.

Maxey is great. A true all star to pair with Embid. We are missing our second All star, in Julius. Does the national media acknowledge that ?
