Back at home! We’re short-handed and banged up but let’s bounce back! Let the Garden crowd fuel them and swing this series back in our favor

Everyone is writing us off. Continue to fight and shock people like we have all year. LET’S GO KNICKS!!

that was quite some negative energies or jinx unleashed on game 4

hopefully little or none of that this time around

This is what happens when a few of you complain about me being negative so I switch it up to positivity in game 3. You are the problem

i understand that they want to milk this series for the money, but the fatigue though...

Knicks with the valiant 15 point loss as Brunson hobbles around the court and OG relaxes drinking lemonade

OG's durability is concerning; never seen a sportsman as fragile as this.

Slow healer or low pain tolerance or both maybe?

I think never is hyperbolic but he's definitely injury-prone which is concerning. He is also very cautious about returning from injury in general, which is good for him in the long-term but not great for the Knicks during his tenure here.

Not sure what to expect with this game. I sure hope we win the series because I don't want to bow out in 6 in the 2nd round in consecutive years. I want ECF this year.

Tough to be optimistic after that a$$ whooping but ya it's a 3 game series now and 2 of them are at home. Win next game and then we get 3 days off to rehabilitate. Maybe we see OG back?

We are a completely diff team without him

Damn.

OG being hurt proves why its dangerous to max him.
Also we were 9 deep, now ... we got two subs starting and our victory cigar is our 6th man.

We're cooked, the injuries have caught up to us and its too much. It sucks but it is what it is man. Missing 4 important players right now. Bogey was really important for us in the Sixers series before going down, he'd come in and snipe 2-3 3pointers and help start comebacks, we really miss him now, and so does Deuce since he doesn't have another guy who can handle the ball and create looks for himself when Brunson sits.

Brunson is also clearly not himself either, he's much slower right now and that quick first step to get by the defense has been gone since the foot injury happened..
