That pass to Castle was heartbreaking. What a frustrating turnover.

They’re about the same height.

That was an elementary school level turnover at the end

Yeah this is the first game their lack of experience really felt like it caught up to them. Their sheer boldness and lack of baggage had been an asset so far in the playoffs but backfired on them at the worst time.

Coaching too, just mindblowingly bad by Johnson. Not sure how you come back from that

And just sheer grit and hustle from the Knicks.

That last one was a back breaker

it’s gonna haunt them

I really hope it ends in 4

Crushing loss for the spurs, and going into NY? Yikes

is it a costly mistake by Wemby?

I was a big, so I’m biased, but how the FUCK is a guard not ready for an outlet?

Deserved loss for Spurs honestly after all their mistakes

Imagine losing the finals bc of that Benny Hill ass play

I thought it was absolutely baffling that we went away from KAT in the 4th. Brunson, as much as I love him, nearly cost us the game.

that’s why coaches have to call a timeout

He has issues closing and these two games are showcases

I think it’s pretty over. They’re not winning 2 in MSG and I don’t think a split is enough.

Great challenge from Mike Brown and the Knicks there too.

Ref manufactured run. It was about to get DARK.

Using your alien to take step backs deep 2s on his last 2 shots was some baffling coaching

I do not understand how they are so bad at lobs. Any lob attempts they do attempt are not the correct height, too fast, not with Wemby ready, it’s insane.

The REFS want this shit tied up bad

Mike Brown is out-coaching Mitch hard

Thats what the analytics say.

Analytically, the Cavs are up 2-0 on the Thunder right now

Horrible game from Brunson, yet Knicks still win.

Brunson nearly lost the game by himself in the 4th

He’s really fucking good and everyone’s a fucking moron. A 7 footer thick boi that can drive from the perimeter… there’s like him, Jokic, and no one else. 

FMVP imo

Tony Brothers was the only thing that could stop KAT tonight

He is elite. Three conference final runs in a row and now making a finals MVP case.

I thought if the Knicks won this series it would be Brunson making the legacy statement, but it’s KAT instead. I thought the scouting report on him in Minnesota was he couldn’t play defense, but clearly he matches up well with Wemby.

This has got to be one of the greatest career turnarounds of all time, prior to 2024 he was seen as this soft playoff choker. Now weve seen him beat jokic and son wemby

Almost fucking choked it, my heart

With so many bullshit calls and noncalls too. Holy shit fuck Tony brothers

The refs tried to take it from yall

Agree but we take it

You beat the spurs and Tony Brothers with Adam silver on the phone. Well deserved W

It’ll be cheaper than getting court side seats at MSG this series

Many are saying he’s the best to ever do it

CJ started all this

Everytime The Knicks win its a CJ upscale.

He’s the 2nd most impactful player in the East

This series reminds me a ton of the 1995 Finals, with Wemby being Shaq.

Harper is the calm, veteran leader.

Danhausen devil magic > refs

Yes. It’s fucking wild.

They were Banging Brunson for an entire half and didn’t call a single foul for him, how does Tony Brothers keep getting work?

Also 6 of the 21 total were hack a Mitch. So really the FTs were 27-15

Yes you are correct

Nah, clearly this 13 game win streak is still a fluke and the Knicks haven’t played anybody good yet.

These two games were so monumental for us^ignorethealmostchokejobhere

For real those 2 quick fouls on KAT were so fucking bad even RJ and legler were like “yeah that was a bullshit call”

The tech on Mitch, calling Deuce for backcourt violation, the hair call, the two KAT fouls that forced him off, then ignoring calling techs fairly both ways, not seeing the foul on OG and making us challenge, then the kick.

Legitimately when you add these up this was not going to be a close game and the refs tried their absolute dambest to make it close, and it was not even subtle.

I’m not enjoying this win as much as I should because genuinely I’m concerned about the integrity of this game. With gambling being shoved down our throats, advertising, ticket sales, buzz, there’s so much money in extending series, and I know we also get ridiculous calls to this isn’t a team thing, something needs to be done about this because it’s out of control and no one seems to care.

May we never see Tony Brothers ref another playoff game this postseason

Idk man.

Everyone who tuned in for the real stars (the refs) got what they wanted

I’ll never get over how easily games can be influenced by refs in this sport. It’s pathetic.

Especially when you don’t have a shot clock on the last possession. Pure idiotic game management by Mitch Johnson. You take the last shot and if you don’t hit it you go to OT.

Brunson shot like shit, the rest of the team played great

That would make me cry. Nobody deserves that more than KAT.

The first free throws that NY took in the 4th quarter had to come from a challenge.

The officiating tonight is some of the most one-sided shit I’ve ever seen in the Finals.

Wemby turnover and you guys choking the lead will be the story, but the officiating was insane.

We’ve never seen a Mandate of Heaven like this since JFK.

My favorite was “And shout out to the refs for letting them play ball… Well, they didn’t let KAT play” 😂😂😂

14-0 run in 2 mins

Brunson misses layup to go up 5

Brunson misses FT

That had the makings of an all-time choke job but you’re right. The way the Spurs are allowed to defend is absolutely ridiculous when Knicks aren’t given that same opportunity on that end

MY BAGEL JEWISH

Man the non called foul on OG’s 3pt attempt late in the 4th was so blatant, thank God the Knicks had their challenge, it literally saved the game.

They are literally playing football with Brunson every possession!

He can only get it up against Chet I guess.

This sub has many people just fyi
