Mike Brown has been a solid coach since his stint with the Warriors. He completely reworked how he coaches offense. Crazy to think he was a defense first coach not long ago with some of the worst offensive game plans we have ever seen.

Rarely see coaches completely flip their philosophy and style after so many years in the league.

Dude went from terrible offensive game planning to one of the better coaches offensively in the league.

He was getting relentlessly clowned not long ago. lol haven’t heard Mr potato head in a long long time.

As a life-long Knicks fan, I’ve watched us suffer through the 17-win seasons of 2014-15 and 2018-19. I was there, contemplating life, when Andrea Bargnani was considered our best player. Obviously I remained a loyal fan when we finally had some real NBA legends like Mike Bibby, Renaldo Balkman, and Cleanthony Early. You know, the guys on everyone’s top 10 list? I sat there like a good, born-and-raised NYer and let this team punch me in the face year after year. Spit in my cereal. Take a dump in my sneakers. I took it all.

And you know what? I’m glad I did, because IT’S SO MUCH SWEETER NOW. EVERYTHING HAS LED TO THIS MOMENT. WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT SEASON AND PLAYOFF RUN. WE ARE EASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPS AND WE ARE HEADING TO THE FINALS. BING. FUCKING. BONG.

His playmaking has shocked me, I heard someone say there’s a lot of similarities with how Mike Brown helped draymond in GS take up positions to be a facilitator and since then I can’t unsee it, watching KAT stand with the ball outstretched behind him only to absolutely rifle it to someone on a cut or for a shot it has that same energy/ feel to it as when draymond would do it for GS.

The Knicks are playing like the team of destiny. They are shooting insanely well. They have a clutch captain. A likable second star. A flaming hart. A grab bag of wings gathered from around the league. They might be facing weak competition but they are absolutely rolling them.

Knicks FC and Pacers FC let’s work. The east needs to be definitively better than the west and this is the chance. We will bring the east to levels it hasn’t seen since the bad boy celtics bulls rivalries of the 80s and 90s.

Knicks def can win the finals if you play like this

They have the personnel to guard sga 1v1, and guard their wings, and to pull Wemby out to the perimeter on defense and punish the spurs guards on offense

While getting swept obviously sucks if you’re the Cavs, reaching a conference finals appearance is still not a bad result, all things considered.

Congrats to the Knicks fans out there getting to see their team reach the finals for the first time this century. It was a rough couple of decades for you guys since your last finals appearance, but I’m glad for y’all.

While most folks will probably pick the Spurs/Thunder as the favorite, the Knicks certainly have a chance. After all, ~~eight~~ eleven straight playoff wins (forgot about the Hawks series, MB) is quite a feat. They’re that good.

I think getting swept in the conference finals when they have the highest payroll in the league isn’t a good result either.

clock winds down to 5 seconds left in game

ball is inbounded to Mitchell who turns face to face against Brunson

“You took my family”

moves to the left

“You took my friends”

moves to the right

“You took all that was dear to me”

clock winds down to 2

“I cant get them back, but I can do this for friendship, FOR MY FRIENDS”goes up, fire coming out of his shoes

“SPIDERUKEN”

Ball flies over Brunson’s forehead, goes straight into basket. Mitchell falls to the ground, exhausted.

“Rudy… Senpai… I…”

faints

Mobley: “Actually, I remember one time we were playing against the Knicks, and it was 3-0 in the series for them, we’re in the second half, down 68-49, and Mitchell said: ‘Guys, if you think we are good, let’s prove it now’”

Harden: “did we come back?”

Mobley: “of course not. Knicks 130 Cavs 93.”

maybe its because this series was over so fast I didnt have time to really get a lot of hatred going but I got no beef with this knicks team despite them whipping our asses. They play a really nice game of basketball and deserve all the credit. Ill personally be pulling for them over whoever comes out of the west.

from the cavs side - it was bad. Lots of questions on the table now and really curious to see how they play it this offseason. Glad they made it this far but going out that bad really sours it.

Don’t sleep on this Knicks team. Sure, the East is not as deep as the Western Conference, but they’ve basically power walked their way into the Finals. I don’t think they even had to turn it up to 100 to get it done. Knicks can win this Championship regardless of whether it’s Spurs or Thunder..

KAT’s third consecutive conference finals and now he makes the finals! He is a winning impactful player 😤 Give this man his flowers!!

People said so much shit about him in the playoffs, he’s quietly impactful and exactly the kind of versatile player one needs in the playoffs because he can impact a game in a variety of ways! Doesn’t even need a lot of shots attempts because he’s so efficient

This is the part of the movie where the villain falls to his knees, looks up incredulously, and asks, “What… Are you?”

Seriously, what the hell is this team? The Sixers knocked off the “finals favorite” Celtics, only to be swept convincingly by these Knicks. Then the Knicks go to the ECF, and sweep EVEN HARDER.

I initially thought that the WCF would be the “true” NBA Finals, but now, I’m not so sure. It is hard to see any team getting 4 wins on these Knicks if they keep playing like this.

Look, I’m fired. I already know I’m fired, trust me I know. But before I go, I just want to get this off my chest. That shit was not my fault.

Ya’ll are trash.

And I mean this from the bottom of my heart.

Ya’ll are trash.

Like y’all are so trash I want you to know that I’m talking to you so I’m going to say your name then I’ma call you trash.

Donovan Mitchell, you trash.

Evan Mobley, you trash.

James Harden…

James Harden listen to me when I say this. You are trash.

Now I deserve to be fired don’t get me wrong, I’m not disagreeing with the decision they’re about to make. Because I left you out there for 38 minutes, I deserved to be fired.

You wasn’t doing shit!

I’ve seen it all 38 minutes. Donovan Mitchell, if I see your name on another top 10 list, I’ma kill somebody.

I better not hear your name compared to Brunson again or I’ma kill somebody.

I don’t want nobody saying Donovan Mitchell and Jalen Brunson in the same sentence, not in the same paragraph, not in the same essay. Unless trash comes after Jalen Brunson’s name.

Now like I said I know I’m gonna be fired. So I’m just gonna get this off my chest we lost to the Knicks! We analytically had a 2-1 lead. I’d fire me too because I don’t know who else to blame but y’all’s sorry asses.

I don’t even know them boys’ names I know every one of y’all’s names.

Oh! Jarrett Allen, you trash. I know you thought I forgot about you, but I did not.

This don’t make no sense. Everybody in this whole organization is-we need to move this organization to a new city.

Because Cleveland ain’t the place no more. We need to move to Maine or something! We need to go so we need to go somewhere where people are not talking about. Anywhere! Maine! uh.. fuckin’ Austin! Let’s go to Austin. Let’s…who…uh…uh… Somewhere! Anywhere, but Cleveland. We don’t deserve that in our names. We don’t deserve that in our names, and that’s all I gotta say. Fire me. Fuck this whole organization I’m gone.

Fucked up my legacy again. It’s analytically 3-1 again, you fucked my legacy again.

Max Strus sent a group text message to his Cavs teammates before game 5:

“If you don’t believe, don’t show up for work.”

Max Strus went 0/9 and the Cavs were ELIMINATED
