the nba gave us the second hardest second half schedule in the league. and that was made AFTER They seen us playing 500 or so basketball. they do us no favors

lol can yal relax with this. they nba didnt GIVE us anything. everyone plays the same teams.
the schedule was created months in advance...and only slightly altered cause of covid costing teams games....but the knicks only missed one game(the spurs)
you know every team had a brutal westcoast trip in the eastern conference cause of the condensed schedule right
some had it at the beginning of the season...some of the middle...some the end. the nets had ran through their westcoast trip right before we did ours
it was expected to kill our team cause we werent expected to be this good...thats the only reason people were weary

Team full of bytches... we need to sweep them.

Nothing Coach McMillan said was wrong or out of bounds. How many times do we hear “the NBA is better when the Knicks are in the playoffs” even tho y’all have consistently been one of the most disorganized, dysfunctional and mediocre teams in the NBA. Why are y’all upset for him stating the obvious? He’s not saying they’re gonna rig the games for y’all but there is a pro NY bias in professional sports b/c of NY being a media capital.

Damn they letting in 15k fans?

What does "pro NY bias" have to do with what's going on in the game?
"Pro NY bias" has done nothing for the Knicks, idk why y'all care about it and why it's even a narrative.

He knows that. Doesn’t mean he won’t play it up to try and get an edge. Coaches work the refs when they can in these series. That he did it before this even starts sounds like fishing for an edge.

 

[Derek Lee]

Bozo

 

[Aintnobodystupid]

Restricted lonzo or flabby and sick Lowry? shyt, we should try for Ish Smith. That boy styling on the Pacers.

Breh this is what Coach said:

"Absolutely, I've talked about that to the team a lot. Basically, I've gone as far as saying the league wants this," he said. "They need this, New York, this is a big market for the league, and New York has been out of the playoffs for a number of years.

"And this is a team that our league, they want to see -- there's a huge fan base -- and they want to see New York in the playoffs."

He added: "The league wants to see it, everybody wants to see this. Even to the fact that our [opening] game was moved to Sunday, they want to see this.

"So, yes, we have talked about that, about the advantages of this situation and some things that we're going to have to face, going into [Game 1], with everyone picking New York to win and a lot of folks wanting to see New York in the playoffs. It's a battle, it's a challenge, just playing New York, all that comes with it. ... They've had a really good season, and I think the NBA is excited about having them back in the playoffs."

Tell me where is the lie. You got the media like ESPN 14 out of 16 picking y’all. Like we get it breh, we ain’t mad but we understand. The NBA is desirous of a NY Knick team doing well in the playoffs. The NBA WANTS to see the Garden in prime time. shyt ain’t the league offices right down the street from MSG?

Silver wants y’all to be here and do well, let’s not play dumb

 

[Montez]

McMillan only saying that because he’s worried about the refs and Trae.

Atlanta are a major market and they have a bright star. While they lack the National presence it doesn’t hurt the NBA to have a good team there as well as.
