Another reminder that everything Trump touches turns to shit*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
I can't get over the advance the ball thing in the NBA.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Reviews are killing the NBA.*
Posted by gullit
|
Turnovers really costing the Knicks tonight. Brunson very inefficient too.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Ice cold 4th. Fuck*
Posted by snipes824
|
Johnson is really strong, pushed Robinson into the air and into Wemby*
Posted by illini222
|
So many punchable faces courtside*
Posted by HeatMizer
|
Bloomberg got one in the kisser just for you*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Howard Lutnick next please*
Posted by HeatMizer
|
Stop turning it over please.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
And here we go again. Fucking absurd.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
That’s a flagrant foul???*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
A flagrant for that? Fuck right off
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Do we need Draymond there fucking up the chemistry?*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Definitely not pointless addition.*
Posted by gullit
|
Took their best shot in the first quarter and up 7. Love it.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Spurs got up early then went away from what go them there. knicks stayed the course*
Posted by Mrap24
|
They got away from hitting every shot they took.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Insisting iso’ijg Wemby 30 feet from the hoops didn’t help either*
Posted by Mrap24
|
NYC is on fire tonight. It is crazy here. Most energy I can ever remember on
Posted by JacobRDaugherty
|
Too much hero ball by the spurs. I don’t like how the spurs use Wemby*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Awful close out by Wemby*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
2 more terrible close outs that possession*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Awful in different ways but equally bad.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
That’s not flagrant. Stupid but not flagrant*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Agreed. Would be nice if they called a couple of the other flagrants tonight.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Castle and Brunson going the full 10 rounds tonight or will there be a knockout first?*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
High level hoops.*
Posted by Toonces
|
lol Mike Breen*
Posted by Mrap24
|
The refs have already lost control*
Posted by Mrap24
|
I mean they’ve just decided they’re not calling anything*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
There is a crazy amount of celebs there. *
Posted by MC
|
That fucking asshole had them show him on the Jumbotron during the anthem so he didn’t get booed
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Same thing happened at the US Open (tennis) last year.
Posted by PDO
|
That can't be all, right?? Surely they'll show him again at a point when the frickin' national
Posted by Wotcher
|
I certainly hope not.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
There’s gotta be video somewhere right?*
Posted by Stu
|
Yes, Stu. Yes there is!
Posted by Stu
|
I hate all New York sports teams with a passion but this crowd is gonna be fuckin’ awesome*
Posted by illini21
|
I’d love to see the Knicks get blown out right in Fuckface’s fucking face*
Posted by Stu
|
Don’t give a shit about that. He doesn’t care about sports. *
Posted by VIV
|
Ok. I’d love to see them get blown out right in front of every other obnoxious Knicks fan’s face*
Posted by Stu
|
It’d be a real shame if they got blown out.
Posted by VIV
|
I mean, you guys won all of those.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Except 94*
Posted by VIV
|
I hadn’t realized that the Knicks just give courtside seats to famous people.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
They pay dearly for it, but yes. You can include the filthy rich in that too.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Because they have to cheer for the Knicks?
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Yeah that article isn’t correct. Quite a few of them have season tiks. The front rows are by
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Mcafee ruins everything he goes to. Of course he’s there the same night trump is *
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Love when an event that you don't want to go to gets cancelled. Thank you rain for no
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
Question for anyone that has heard or read about the schedule of events: do you know...
Posted by Wotcher
|
1. I like where Mrs. Wotcher’s head is at. 2. If it’s anything like his disaster trip to the US Open
Posted by voiceofreason
|
I think what his attendance does to the fan experience for everyone else sucks.
Posted by illini
|
Even if I grant you his Knicks fandom, it’s an incredibly selfish decision.
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Knicks are on a roll, don't know what could possibly throw them off at this point*
Posted by RVA
|
They've got a Grade-A distraction headed their way tonight.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
Did I hear correctly that the knicks haven’t lost a game since April 23? They are extremely
Posted by Toonces
|
Arguably on the greatest heater in NBA playoff history. *
Posted by illini
|
So maybe don't foul for the hell of it just because you have one to give?
Posted by RVA
|
Yeah that made no sense at all. Both the Spurs players and head coach are probably 1-2 years away
Posted by OB25
|
That game was awesome, physical, incredibly frenetic.
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Absolutely hate that play.*
Posted by Mrap24
|
So bad*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
In the last 40 seconds, SA called 2 time outs. The resulting shots were
Posted by Mrap24
|
Yessssssssss. Keep on trying, NBA. Knicks better get some serious home cooking at MSG.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
lmao*
Posted by Ron McDon
|
You’re way overboard in this thread. It was physical both ways. Maybe more to help
Posted by John Coctostan
|
C’mon. Wemby gets treated like Jordan and the refs take KAT out of it with two horrendous
Posted by voiceofreason
|
And hart and bridges pushed wemby all over under the basket. And castle was allowed to really
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I’m with you on that wall - they took the best player out of the game (Towns)
Posted by RD
|
The idea that the NBA wouldn’t want the Knicks to win is delusional*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
The idea that they have to have a coronation for Wemby isn’t.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
You’re making a fool of yourself*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
Oh no, Wemby pt2*
Posted by VIV
|
Never in basketball is that called a kick*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Yeah, Jefferson was trying too hard there.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Dammit. Brunson has been off tonight.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Oh no Wemby *
Posted by illini21
|
That was on Castle to me*
Posted by JacobRDaugherty
|
Eh. He looked for the outlet immediately, wemby started dribbling, so castle started running
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Agreed. He has to be looking for the outlet there.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
I’m guessing Wemby has dribbled that up in similar situations this season*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Yeah, could be. I haven’t watched much of the Spurs this year.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Yep. *
Posted by VIV
|
He looks on the take*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Come on *
Posted by VIV
|
ZOMG*
Posted by VIV
|
Spurs call TO onset up a 25 footer from a 7 footer. Mercy*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Where is the foul there?*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
What a 4th Q*
Posted by VIV
|
Thank god for challenges. C’mon, refs. You’ve fucked the Knicks all night.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Spurs look timid, tired and hurt. Knicks taking it to them*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
14-0 run. Now tied. *
Posted by Philo
|
Another phantom foul.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
the one where Hart rebounded Wemby's right arm? *
Posted by OrangeSox
|
No that was legit. The call on OG before that.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Ahh, yeah soft for sure*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Knicks have finally made the Spurs look young and like a team with an inexperienced coach*
Posted by OB25
|
This would be a 20 point game without the home cooking.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Spurs have no plan on offense and Wemby hasn’t been up for the fight on the other end.
Posted by OB25
|
It’s not lost on me that I’ve fallen into the hot take vortex that I just derided.*
Posted by OB25
|
Those final 4 minutes without KAT and Brunson … so impressive by NY *
Posted by RD
|
Yep, solid. Huge sequence there.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
And now a joke offensive foul on KAT. Fuck you, NBA.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
KAT leans backwards, gets a foul called. Jordan rules for Wemby.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
LETS GOOOOOOOOO!*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
In today’s embrace debate/social media hot take world, it’s funny to watch…
Posted by OB25
|
Great close to the half.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Don’t touch the hair! Embarrassing again, NBA.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Wemby walks on water, evidently. Embarrassing.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
I can’t wait for this thing to get to MSG. Clown show officiating.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
The flagrant was 100% warranted*
Posted by bjl63
|
agreed. Hart knew it right away*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Call it both ways. They are fouling the shit out of the Knicks on every pressure.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Brunson should’ve drawn 3 techs by now … Harper followed him to his coaches huddle and pushed him
Posted by RD
|
The fucking officiating, my god. Let’s just keep the Spurs in this one like we did in game 1.
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Who would be the modern reenactment of this?
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Ray Lewis.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Way bigger than Marshawn. Barkley or Michael Strahan come to mind when factoring in…
Posted by OB25
|
Shaq, Gronk*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
Strahan is a good one*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
maybe Cena*
Posted by Sammich
|
Good call on those names*
Posted by illini21
|
I've seen very little NBA over the past few years, most of which has been recently. It seems to me..
Posted by Wotcher
|
I find it way more entertaining this way rather than just watching a shit ton of free throws*
Posted by illini21
|
The refs have been letting them play lately. I think it is in response to all the flopping
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
I’m just glad they let the Knicks on the court*
Posted by snipes824
|
Won’t somebody please think of the poor disrespected New York team!*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
Brunson is a stone cold killer*
Posted by illini21
|
Yep. *
Posted by harb
|
He’s not Wemby but Hart’s defense and rebounding was game changing
Posted by RD
|
No doubt. Also super impressed with KAT tonight. Always thought he was kinda soft but man he battled
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Spurs in trouble.*
Posted by Toonces
|
WTF is this trash 720p feed?*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
ESPN is the worst*
Posted by CWR10
|
Brunson is a dude. *
Posted by illini
|
Also this has been an excellent game. These guys are so damn good. The speed and skill
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Watching all these guys get near the paint and have 0 interest in putting the shot up is wild
