- And they need an effective 2nd player with size* - illini222 Yesterday, 22:19:55
- 100%. They need castle or Harper to become the perimeter alpha - John Coctostan Yesterday, 22:17:16

    - Not tonight, but Castle has been great much of the post-season* - bjl63 Yesterday, 22:22:27
    - Castle has been beyond useless tonight. * - assassin Yesterday, 22:19:59
      - For sure. They’re still young though. I don’t think I’d overreact* - John Coctostan Yesterday, 22:22:43
- They don’t let him touch that ball. Hes their best player tonight* - bjl63 Yesterday, 22:16:02
These Spurs shots are abhorrent. * - illini Yesterday, 22:12:50
- Harper has been their best player and he doesn’t even get a touch* - bjl63 Yesterday, 22:14:54
I can’t remember a team ever gagging game after g game in the NBA Finals quite like the Spurs. - Ron McDon Yesterday, 22:12:32

Would Wemby have been suspended for game 6 if they called that?* - OB25 Yesterday, 21:21:47
- Yes. He should be suspended for this one already.* - voiceofreason Yesterday, 21:22:49
That’s a terrible missed call. Entire reason the rule exists* - John Coctostan Yesterday, 21:21:34
- Not for the NBA golden boy though.* - voiceofreason Yesterday, 21:23:09

OG’s bad close outs are giving them too many open 3s* - voiceofreason Yesterday, 21:14:27
Eh, I know it looked similar to the last play, but Wemby acted a bit there* - gvibes Yesterday, 21:08:55
- It’s what he does. That being said, Hart hardly got pushed either.* - voiceofreason Yesterday, 21:12:06
Fox sure plays like a guy who was raised by the Sacramento Kings organization* - OB25 Yesterday, 20:42:37

Just a guess but the Knicks are not down 22 because of the officials* - bjl63 June 10, 2026, 20:33:37
- Spurs are shooting out of their minds too* - OWWDig June 10, 2026, 20:38:12

- I don’t watch a ton of NBA these days and I certainly have no love for the knicks… - OWWDig June 10, 2026, 20:12:36
- And now Wemby allowed to tip one in that is clearly on the rim. What is the point of even playing. - voiceofreason June 10, 2026, 20:11:35
- I 100% thought it was a pass real time. I was wrong * - gvibes June 10, 2026, 20:10:48

Mike Brown will get fined, but good for him calling out the officiating discrepancies.* - voiceofreason June 9, 2026, 9:36:55
- Officials lost control of the game early and never tried to regain control. - Mrap24 June 9, 2026, 10:11:58
  - It wasn't great officiating but the players were allowed to decide the game in the 4th - RVA June 9, 2026, 11:49:50
    - 24-8 FT discrepancy in the 2nd half isn’t just letting the players decide it. - voiceofreason June 9, 2026, 12:44:46
    - Agreed* - illini21 June 9, 2026, 12:38:43
  - Gotta get to 7 games... just accept that's how this is going to end up.* - uofi1998 June 9, 2026, 10:32:41
    - Can’t risk Wemby getting suspended either. The golden goose.* - voiceofreason June 9, 2026, 11:30:55
      - Careful otherwise Wemby will put one of those elbow daggers in your throat, Shaolin style.* - Warrin'_Illini June 9, 2026, 12:36:48
        
        Or throw me down forcefully via back of the neck like he did Brunson last night.* - voiceofreason June 9, 2026, 12:43:07
S Castle is really good* - Mrap24 June 9, 2026, 9:09:16
- Dylan Harper ain't no slouch either. They have a great nucleus of young talent obviously but - Warrin'_Illini June 9, 2026, 10:33:44
  - I don’t love how they use Wemby. Stop trying to iso him 30 feet away. - Mrap24 June 9, 2026, 11:29:05

Took their best shot in the first quarter and up 7. Love it.* - voiceofreason June 8, 2026, 20:52:14
- Spurs got up early then went away from what go them there. knicks stayed the course* - Mrap24 June 8, 2026, 20:59:28
  - They got away from hitting every shot they took.* - voiceofreason June 8, 2026, 21:02:27

Question for anyone that has heard or read about the schedule of events: do you know... - Wotcher June 8, 2026, 15:21:40
- 1. I like where Mrs. Wotcher’s head is at. 2. If it’s anything like his disaster trip to the US Open - voiceofreason June 8, 2026, 15:33:44
  - I think what his attendance does to the fan experience for everyone else sucks. - illini June 8, 2026, 17:47:49
    - Even if I grant you his Knicks fandom, it’s an incredibly selfish decision. - voiceofreason June 8, 2026, 18:20:34
Knicks are on a roll, don't know what could possibly throw them off at this point* - RVA June 8, 2026, 9:27:55

So maybe don't foul for the hell of it just because you have one to give? - RVA June 5, 2026, 22:40:16

  - C’mon. Wemby gets treated like Jordan and the refs take KAT out of it with two horrendous - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 22:45:16
    - And hart and bridges pushed wemby all over under the basket. And castle was allowed to really - John Coctostan June 5, 2026, 23:02:59
    - I’m with you on that wall - they took the best player out of the game (Towns) - RD June 5, 2026, 22:54:00
  - The idea that the NBA wouldn’t want the Knicks to win is delusional* - Herman Blume June 5, 2026, 22:44:56
    - The idea that they have to have a coronation for Wemby isn’t.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 22:46:00

  - Agreed. He has to be looking for the outlet there.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 22:27:23
    - I’m guessing Wemby has dribbled that up in similar situations this season* - Mrap24 June 5, 2026, 22:29:26
      - Yeah, could be. I haven’t watched much of the Spurs this year.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 22:30:14

Another phantom foul.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 21:54:50
- the one where Hart rebounded Wemby's right arm? * - OrangeSox June 5, 2026, 21:55:55
  - No that was legit. The call on OG before that.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 21:56:49
    - Ahh, yeah soft for sure* - OrangeSox June 5, 2026, 22:02:09
Knicks have finally made the Spurs look young and like a team with an inexperienced coach* - OB25 June 5, 2026, 21:52:24
- This would be a 20 point game without the home cooking.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 21:53:06
  - Spurs have no plan on offense and Wemby hasn’t been up for the fight on the other end. - OB25 June 5, 2026, 22:03:07

And now a joke offensive foul on KAT. Fuck you, NBA.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 21:28:59

Great close to the half.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 20:57:32
Don’t touch the hair! Embarrassing again, NBA.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 20:48:30
Wemby walks on water, evidently. Embarrassing.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 20:44:12
I can’t wait for this thing to get to MSG. Clown show officiating.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 20:41:09

  - Call it both ways. They are fouling the shit out of the Knicks on every pressure.* - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 20:44:41
    - Brunson should’ve drawn 3 techs by now … Harper followed him to his coaches huddle and pushed him - RD June 5, 2026, 21:06:05
The fucking officiating, my god. Let’s just keep the Spurs in this one like we did in game 1. - voiceofreason June 5, 2026, 20:17:58

I've seen very little NBA over the past few years, most of which has been recently. It seems to me.. - Wotcher June 4, 2026, 8:06:27
- I find it way more entertaining this way rather than just watching a shit ton of free throws* - illini21 June 4, 2026, 8:37:10
- The refs have been letting them play lately. I think it is in response to all the flopping - Warrin'_Illini June 4, 2026, 8:25:49
I’m just glad they let the Knicks on the court* - snipes824 June 3, 2026, 22:15:33

- No doubt. Also super impressed with KAT tonight. Always thought he was kinda soft but man he battled - John Coctostan June 3, 2026, 22:23:16
Spurs in trouble.* - Toonces June 3, 2026, 21:56:35
