[Highlight] The New York Knicks take a 3-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals with a 121-108 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Knicks have won 5 straight road playoff games by double-digits.
GO NEW YORK GO NEW YORK GO
Smiling through it all. Can’t believe this is my life
The vibes in the Garden must be absolutely unreal right now. Enjoy every second of it, you guys earned this after all those years of pain.
After Game 1 - I knew this series was over
You can’t choke that bad and not have it effect you psychologically the rest of the series
Trust me I know, we saw it happened to the Knicks last year
And truth be honest, this Cavs team has nothing for the Knicks
Honestly felt like the team that would’ve given us the most trouble is a in form Celtics team but idk what happened with them
Cap space is the reason the championship roster is gone for the Celtics.
No reason to blow 3-1 though against the team that we swept.. they keep jacking up treys
Coaching. Blowing the lead? Could happen. Unable to pick out what the problems are? Huge problem. Cavs still believe their defense isn’t the problem when Mike Brown is picking apart their defensively inept backcourt. Same issue with Boston on how that entire organization forgot non 3 point shots exist in this game. Just tone deaf.
I think saying Kenny Atkinson is being out coached is the understatement of the year. This is a tactical spanking rarely seen before
Easier to say now, but I think we all knew it. I was looking forward to a Detroit series but nothing tells me that wouldn’t have been a sweep either. The regular season games I guess convinced me to a certain extent that they would at least make it slightly more competitive than CLE, but damn do those count for shit.
Detroit could theoretically pull you into their type of bullshit game the same way Iowa football gets people, cavs are just outgunned on every front
I thought that, until CLE dragged them to 7 games.
yeah that game 1 collapse was brutal. felt like even if they somehow pulled out game 2 or 3, the damage was already done mentally. and you’re right, the Cavs just don’t match up well at all - Mobley can’t handle Brunson on the perimeter and nobody’s stopping Mitch on the boards.
This team is insane to watch. They’re a machine firing on max.
For real, they’re clicking at the perfect time. Feels like every night someone different steps up too, makes them impossible to gameplan for.
we’ve seen playoff runs where single players put the team on their back and the team dominates through them. this is a team effort.
Congrats to the Eastern Conference runner up: The Atlanta Hawks
BING BONG
The Knicks are now 11-2 in the playoffs. Both losses were by 1 point each. This has been a pretty dominant run so far.
10-0
That defense on like the 3rd to last possession, Cleveland just gave up.
cleveland fans have had to watch new york shit down their throats in 2 of 4 seasons, yikes
We are their Pacers (used to be Jimmy Butler Heat)
Nah nah nah the Sixers are our Pacers.
The hawks gave the knicks the most trouble this postseason 😂the rest of the east needs shame
The Cavs gotta BLOW IT UP
Look at us, who would have thought? not me.
I’m a Knicks fan, my first NBA game ever was 2006 at the Garden vs the Cavs. Coach of the Cavs in 06 was Mike Brown. 20 years later, the Mike Brown led Knicks are one win vs the Cavs away from making the fuckin NBA Finals. Absolutely cannot believe what I am seeing with this team. LGK
Just a crazy run we’re on
I’m sooooo getting fucking tatted if these Knicks win it all
WHO’S WITH ME?!?!?
Tattoos aren’t my thing, don’t have one, but I have to admit I’m thinking about it
I’M WITH YOU. (FIRST TATTOO BTW)
I been tatted since 2020 when I turned 18. Life is good
I think that 1st game and Cavs dropping 20 point lead just fucked up Cavs mentally right away . Would be whole different series if they dont choke
Demon hawks beat these guys twice
The Cavs in the end of the game was embarrassing.
You can’t be a professional team hoping to go to a finals and show up like that. No heart.
please five more!
Cavs are rhinoceros shit
5 straight road playoff wins by double digits. away. in someone else’s building. by double digits. five times.
the cavs had homecourt and the knicks treated it like a road trip
1999 was 27 years ago and the table is almost set
evan mobley can’t win with these cats
Bahahahaha cavs were favorites? With harden??? EASY $$$
Haha that Asian dude flashing his white T forgetting that he took his jersey off.
I think a big part of it as well is that every game now is every other day. Only one day off between games. Cleveland has lost a step in the fourth multiple times now and that 7 game series against detroit seems to have worn them out a bit.
