The Knicks have been for real these last couple of weeks. There's a chance that y'all might win the 1st round if they matchup with ATL (still haven't thought who might win that but looks close).

You really had to bring that back... Lol

Oh yeah! Heard about that. Apparently, that AMA got trolled to death. Sadge lol


I forgot to mention: Anthony Edwards looked like Steph Curry in his most recent game and couldn't miss a shot. He's built like a mini-Zion but he has the outside shot already. Football boi gud.

Steph is literally top 2 all-time along with lebron.

Knicks back in the playoffs after 8 years of torture @Noyman @Haoshoku

Are your all-time top players just current players right now? Lol


Harden balling out once again off injury. I'm almost convinced he'll win Finals MVP if the Nets win 'cause they're playing his offense pretty much from HOU with MDA there but he's with Kyrie & KD now. I'll take that should BRK win.

Gotcha🤙🏾

@homelander @Jiihad

Man, I feel bad for the Kings. I think they're about to have the longest playoff drought ever. I still remember their last playoff season where they almost missed the playoffs until they got Artest who just got back from the brawl suspension. Dude was arguably top 10 at the time 15 years ago... Time fucking flies.

@Noyman one more win against the Celtics tmrw and we clinch the 4th seed and play Atlanta in the first round :O

It's imperative that both you and ATL have to win the last game 'cause either one will get to the 2nd round and that will be a huge overachievement for this year. Nets are pretty much in 2nd place now and MIL will possibly face MIA again in the 1st round. PHI can likely coast through the first 2 rounds. They couldn't have a better luck of the draw with the 1st seed.

Boston resting all of their starters against us later today, hopefully nothing goes wrong on our end. If all is right, we can clinch 4th tonight.

Also just ordered a Knicks Randle jersey yesterday. First time in 8 yrs that ive bought Knicks merchandise lol

Yeah Philly is not seeing Miami, MIL, or Brooklyn in the first 2 rounds with how things are looking right now. Giving them a clear path to the Conference Finals. And from a matchup standpoint they could give Brooklyn a hard time with no center that can remotely even bother Embiid.

Its looking like the Nets will still come out of the East, even if they got the more difficult bracket. At the end of the day they still got KD, Kyrie and Harden that’s gonna be tough for any team.

 

[RobertoTheOharaSurvivor]

so far so good, hopefully no chokes to the depleted Celtics

True. In their last matchup, DJ had some good moments against Embiid but I imagine they'll take their chances with small ball, especially since DJ can get in foul trouble that quickly if Embiid is getting the calls. My only worry for Philly is if Simmons becomes a problem again offensively and Doc's adjustments.

Yeah. Really the only worry for them is if they can figure it out quickly with so few games played together for the big 3. Then again, it's a weird season for everybody.

You say that then it almost happened lol. At least, you get 4th now against ATL. It's almost an even matchup.

 

[Haoshoku]

With the way Steph is playing , Lakers might want to watch out sleeping on the Warriors in the play in and dropping a game because all it takes is Steph going for 40 and the second unit playing well :cantseeme:

This man already has 30 against Memphis in the 3rd and just shot over a double team from halfcourt, absolutely insane.
