Torrey Craig is a clown.

Am I alone in thinking Gus Johnson sucks now though? He says so many cringe things, barely knows the players, and just doesnt have good chemistry with Clyde. I used to enjoy his schtick 20 years ago, but he’s been away from the NBA game too long it seems.


thank god I’m not alone on Gus. Such a painful listen

Mitch’s conditioning looks terrible and we don’t have many games left to get him in shape.

OG looking fully healthy is the biggest news.

Brunson has been a top 8 player all season, but I think we knew that, it's the media who has been asleep at the wheel.

OG getting his rhythm back offensively is what puts this team into a position where the only match up I have concerns about is Boston. Otherwise, all this talk about the Knicks need to avoid certain 1st round match ups is irrelevant to me. They will beat who gets put in front of them.

The only question mark I have is bench support. Mitch is not in game shape, Bojan has to give the team more and Deuce is not playoff tested. But, it is what it is at this point, these are the 8 guys who will be on the floor. I just don't like the idea of Hart having to play 48 mins every game but there's literally no other choice.

Yeah I was surprised Gus straight up said Isaiah was going to leave because he’s going to get paid. That was after he said about 3 times that, off the bench, he was putting up good numbers this season lol. Isaiah has been starting most of the damn games.

Gus also mentions how much money all the players make in general now constantly, and how old Clyde is. He gave Donte the Big Ragu nickname and has some funny moments, but he’s just been off since he came back. Tries too hard. We’re spoiled with Breen.

That was Gus? I was wondering who this drugged up wannabe male Doris Burke was. He was so annoying. Boris Burke.

I still love Gus. Breen is on another level, but Gus is great as a fill in especially next to Clyde. They have good chemistry still going back 30 years on the radio.

I don't know if I could take Gus everygame...he can be a bit over the top...but sprinkling him in every now and then is pretty cool. Love his energy!

If he doesn't ask out this summer, it's on him.

He turns 28 in August. Time is fleeting and if he decides to burn his peak years messing with Sean Marks and Joe Tsai's batsh*ttery, he will have only himself to blame. It's not even about a trade to the Knicks at this point for him, he's been set up for failure and having to watch his friends becoming rock stars while he wallows in filth has to hurt.

Brunson is so good. I'm starting to think he is the best Knick I've ever seen.
