Chalamet plays Tyler Kolek in the doc

one step closer to this

Spike actually was trying to make a doc based on the Blood in the Garden book by Chris Herring but wasn’t given access to MSG apparently.

An entire episode devoted to Eddy Curry lowlights

Ben Stiller gets free tickets to games on the condition that he never says anything bad about the Knicks or ownership so it’s hard to imagine it’ll say anything critical.

He has sexual harassment cases? Bro, what the f.

sir we still have an assistant coach with sexual harassment charges 😭

Cries in Jared Jeffries and Jerome James.

Bro the 2003-2020 knicks can be a 10 part series on its own title the Dark Ages at the Mecca. That’s how much shit besides Isiah’s Thomas stuff happened.

Oh man I want an entire hour solely focused on Larry Brown, Marbury, and Steve Francis.

How about the one where when the Knicks met with LeBron James to make their free agency pitch in 2010, Dolan gave him a JD and the Straight Shot CD?

SB Nation already covered that pretty well in their collapse series.

But I think it is worth higher production to zero in on that low point so it can drive how important this victory was to the Knicks fans.

They will likely focus on the adversity of this franchise yes, they’re trying to tell a story lol

Or Tony Soprano doing a pitch to Lebron to come to New York before he made The Decision

Phil Jackson arc will be must watch tv

During the Linsanity era part “I saw someone and he looked….Asian!”

Meet the ‘Bockers

He spoken a foreign language. It sounded like Asssian!

Jim Carrey as James Dolan

Seemed like a happy ending to me! I’m sure Bird stayed healthy and continued to dominate the conference throughout the 90s and we didn’t have multiple of his successors die

That show was great they really fucked up by cancelling it

I know that the show’s version of Jerry West was an exaggerated caricature, but I’ll be damned if he wasn’t entertaining as hell.

Didn’t watch but that’s a pretty hilarious way to end it.

I’ll never forget how deflating watching the credits of the season 2 finale was

That’s gotta be the funniest show cancellation I’ve ever heard of lmao

I do feel bad for you guys and feel bad because I wanted more of the show but as a Lakers hater it was a hilarious way to end it

I was shocked. It was really good.

That show was dope and before the end/last couple rushed episodes of that second season, the second season was even better than the first. I love the cast, how it was shot, etc. It was awesome. What a bizarre ending after shitbag Zaslov ran around cancelling everything so he can stuff HBO full of already aired Investigation Discovery slop.

Shot Taker

And Langston Galloway, I’m not watching if he is not in it

Small segment? That’s gonna be the bulk of the series

Yeah. I’ll watch because I love a hoops doc and the Knicks have a rich history.

But winning one title and immediately greenlighting a doc is hilarious. Only in New York. (Or LA)

(And probably Boston)

The funny thing is that most Knicks fans I know are being both insufferable and reasonable

Like, none of them are taking about running it back or a dynasty or whatever (unlike fans of some teams) 

Every Knicks fan I know is basically saying, “this shit was fucking magic, so we’re going to brag about it to a truly unreasonable degree, suck it” 

They’re not the first or last team to have a fan with connections make a documentary about them. It’s not even the first on HBO

Do you not enjoy masturbating or something

Every single team does some kind of championship documentary or DVD, this is just that but from a fan who’s also a director and been at all the games

Did you say this shit about Bill Simmons Celtics city doc lol

There was a serialized show about the 1980s Lakers and a multi-part doc about the Celtics and the ‘98 Bulls…so does that make it a circle jerk?

You really think one of America’s biggest media market isn’t going to milk this shit for all it’s worth?

Bruv we gonna milk on to this one championship so much Doc Rivers gonna grow some self-awareness

Think of it this way — it’s a great way to teach all the brand new bandwagon Knicks fans about the franchises history

He’s not directing any of S3, he helped break the scripts but that’s it. So this won’t delay S3 thankfully

Timothy Chelmet as Brunson is getting closer and closer

Robert Downey Jr narrating the documentary as Kirk Lazarus

I don’t read the script, script reads me.

And Haliburton will be the director that steps on a land mine?

well this year new york was the first team in nba history to win an nba championship, its worth a documentary

Smelling their own farts.

A little Nate in there too

Sorry but you’ll get all 17 games in full of Antonio McDyess while Marcus Camby’s DPOY stats flash on screen.

I’d prefer if Spike made a movie where the Knicks championship is happening in the periphery. Kind of like how 25th Hour isn’t about ⁹⁄₁₁ but it’s still a big part of the story. 

Spike was supposedly working on a movie adaptation on Blood in the Garden (book on the 90s Knicks).

We’ll always have the triangle explanation video

There’ll be little snippets of it during the chip season episode

I’ve watched every 30 for 30, even for sports I don’t care a lick about so yeah I’ll watch a basketball documentary

I would absolutely watch this. I dont need to be a Knicks fan to watch a good basketball documentary.

I’m not a Knicks fan and I will watch the snot out of this

Not a Knicks fan but as a basketball and sports fan in general…Hell yea

Yes of course. Hoops docs rock. Lol

I mean, I am indifferent to baseball and UFC, but there are some YouTubers who create amazing documentaries in those sports that I rewatch regularly.

I enjoy all sports documentaries, even teams/players I don’t root for

Did anyone watch Celtics city?

Stiller is a great director, it’s probably going to be worth a watch for anyone.

I’ve watched random documentaries about amish people. I’ll watch any well made documentary. I think most people are like this lol.

Even if only Knicks fans watched it that’s still pretty good #s for a documentary, isn’t it?

He was already making this before the playoffs, it just lucked out that it has such a perfect ending now.

the Lakers literally had two seasons of an HBO prestige series, and Jeanie Buss has a TV series “about” her life on Netflix

Neon 90% acquires and doesn’t finance or produce…yet
