PG: When The Going Gets Tough The Tough Get Going

Media and opposing fans are crying because of something called LolKnicks. It is something they grew up with. It is like a national pastime for them, to make fun of the Knicks 24/7 and treat them as a class clown. It's been 24 years of the same thoughtless nonsense.

They are panicking now because they can't accept we are actually good. They will do all sorts of malarkey to continue the tradition ranging from disrespect, crying about the refs, to creating stats that show our players are not very good.

What they are experiencing now is cognitive dissonance and it will take several years for them to get over it.

Knicks becoming relevant is a conspiracy theory

I love this!

Yup. At the end of the day, we made big plays.

Spoiler:

I watched this one before the game as well----it was one of the sloppiest, worst prepared pregame previews in a while:

1. At 1:44 Pierce says he loves Mathurin off the bench.....I was like WTF? So they have a show and he shows up not knowing that Mathurin who was admittedly very good for the Pacers is out for season? I mean how do you miss that?

2. Both of them referred back to the 125-111 Pacer win in the garden where the Knicks were without Mitch, Hartenstein and OG (and obviously Randle). They started Taj Gibson.....I mean why would you take that as a reference?

3. He cites the Pacers defense and grit on Brunson---like...what? Brunson put up 36points per game on 49% shooting and got to the FT line at will in the regular season shot 30 FTs in 3 games......like WTF is Pierce talking about? The Pacers have no answers 1 on 1 for Brunson. Brunson's 43 points and 14 FTs were just business as usual for him against the Pacers, like another day in the office and he really got to all the spots he wanted to. The Sixers defense on Brunson was much tougher....I have rarely seen such a bad take by a commentator or ex-player pregame. It was like they were not familiar with the personnel of both teams at all and didn't even bother to look at regular season box scores for reference.

Extremely sloppy and unprepared.

cant wait to see their follow up...
you nailed it...Paul is also just a hater of the knicks and for a guy that got the best of us so many times I just dont understand why...

without a doubt

Remember how I predicted people would turn on Mitch because this series isn't the best match up for him after he was the best option against the previous series big man? No, I'm not stupordamos, it's because this board is so dam predictably dumb.

[Reign23]

just watched both games.
well maybe it is sustainable, that Brunson carries us to the Finals and Hart having energy to play 48 minutes every game.
unbelievable performance once again.
oh and Emmy Rossum <3

i guess the nba could come up with some kind of rule that lets you add a player in the playoffs if you have multiple guys out for the season. but who are you gonna get and are you gonna even want to play them in a playoff setting. i wouldn't think so.

Grant Hill seems to have kept in good shape. Maybe we could finally get him.

I still can't believe Ramon Sessions eventually played for us. Dreams do come true.

Sure there's all this consternation about the bench scoring difference but nobody seems to have the same energy about the Knicks starters outscoring them 118-71 yet there's only one point differential that makes a real difference...121-117

Nah, it’s the same people waiting for these moments. Brunson had the same type of haters that popped up after G1 and 2 of the Philly series but they’re gone now.

im not going to worry about it- i just hope we make the right adjustments and can end this series early so these guys can rest.
that will be far from easy...

If you agree with my point why did you start the response with 'nah'? I didn't say 'everyone'...I said 'people'...those were the people I was referring to.

everyone saying we stole this game is so fking annoying

[pwayknicks]

Need to give precious some run at the 5, and as much as he blows, Alec burks may need to get some spot minutes. Everyone plays 45 minutes every game is crazy

Everything the Knicks have done is stealing because nobody wants to give it to them...

Oh, cause you said "turn on," like they're supporting him at one moment and then attacking him after. I don't know if they ever changed their minds...they're always gonna find a way to hate. But yea, you were right.

I still think Mitch can make an impact in this series too.

Last possession of the game for Indiana 10.7 seconds left in the game. Watch the moving screen that Miles sets on Divo top of your screen. He absolutely mauls him and is moving the entire time. Looks like he even puts his forearm out. Should have been another offensive foul called on him and the refs completely missed it.

When he's playing well even many of his haters will say something nice about him and enjoy his contributions but the moment he doesn't it's a 'turn' back to their previous state, but I digress.

Hi Knicksgod!
