However, while watching this game back he was very fair and even-handed towards the Knicks. It surprised me

I felt the same way. He was pretty balanced overall.

Probably wouldn’t be injured all the time if he wasn’t launching himself at other players all game. And when he’s not launching himself at players he’s falling to the ground. He’s not exactly a slim guy.

As fans, we’re so accustomed to teams just folding under pressure and some fake-hustle, but these guys are different.

They simply don’t quit, they stay composed and seem to really believe that they can win no matter the circumstances.

They’re making us believers too. I’m just glad we’re here for the ride.


The PTSD is real

I remember that bitch Tyson Chandler with the damn flu and everybody just forgetting how to play basketball, leaving Melo alone. And Melo was quite frustrating to watch sometimes too.

Combine that with Randle’s playoff performances and you’re probably right. :D

I believe Bogs can & should contribute. Maybe he has to rest up for the next seriesm, but he has a small but significant part to play.

One thing I noticed was Embiid and Maxey started becoming disinterested as the game went on, I think it's hallmark of a great team defense... I remember the Pistons made Kobe and esp Shaq so exasperated... their D just wore them out mentally first they made them both not interested in playing ball anymore (you made a Kobe uninterested, you've done a helluva job)... kudos to our team D, esp of course OG, Josh, Deuce and Precious

---

Also, gotta appreciate and love Starks' energy...

I'm guessing Doc and AI won't go to MSG for Game 5... there's a difference between loving a team for real vs obligation/ duty

This team just don't quit.

Ihart and Divo will get better in game 5.

See ya it is 4am in Hong Kong and I am ecstatic now, how can I sleep for tomorrow's work?

Hard to put into words the effort this team put forth today. I’m still stunned by the game

Brunson was remarkable. Not only making buckets but also creating for others. He had good moments defensively too and clutch down the stretch

Hart and Precious may have had the two most impactful games for guys who scored 5 points combined in a combined 66 mins

OG was spectacular and he was the answer on Embiid defensively. He was more aggressive on offense and his defense continues to wow

Deuce continues to provide huge bench mins as well. Props to Thibs adjusting


I also wanted to give props to Maxey. Dude is one of the youngest on that Sixers team and the most level headed. He’s going to be a MF to go against for years but he’s earned my respect with how he handles himself on and off the court

Yeah I’ve noticed Maxey doesn’t do a lot of complaining and hasn’t thrown cheap shots or flops

Can’t say same for Embiid and Lowry who is a shameless flopper

7-man rotation is the way to go. More minutes to McBride and Precious to maximize defense and hustle plays especially in 4th quarters.

OG came through big time today. He was aggressive all game on both ends and it was a sight to see. Winning play after winning play.

Return to New York Knicks
