  1. Jalen Brunson is now a Top 5 Knicks player of all time. Not only do I put him above Carmelo Anthony, I also now put him above his idol Bernard King too.

    I won’t put him over the early 70s Knicks players or Patrick Ewing yet (I’ll put him over Pat if he wins this city a championship) but he’s now officially reached the Top 5 in my eyes.

    And the best part is? The sky is the limit for him and this Knicks team if they do the unthinkable and win it all.

  2. There are three things that are certain in life: Love, Death, and Thibs working his starters like a SHEIN factory.

  3. Mike Breen is a fantastic commentator. But goddamn, I don’t know that anything could be more annoying than listening to a team’s local broadcaster as they kick your ass for two and a half hours to end the season lol

  4. From Jerome James to Alexey Shved

    **I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS**

  5. This man Josh Hart was up 38 points with 14 minutes left and he still out hustled two Celtics for an offensive rebound with their season on the line

  6. Blowing back to back 20 point leads at home might have hurt the Celtics chances in this series.

  7. I Stopped By One Of My Biggest Haters Funeral Today 🙏 Just To Make Sure He Was Dead

  8. I can’t fucking believe it. It’s been 25 fucking years and we’ve made it back to the doorstep of the Finals.

    I’ve been a fan of this team my entire life. My favorite Knick growing up was David Lee. I just never thought that my team could actually be good.

    It’s just insane. Jalen and this team have brought some real hope to this city. 11 will never be worn by another player in New York.

    We’re going all the fucking way.

  9. The craziest thing about this game was Tom Thibodeou keeping his starters in a long as he did.

    Thibs minutes, what a sicko

  10. Sir a second 60+ win team has hit Cancun before the Conference Finals.

    Team | Result
    —|—
    CLE (64-18) | ✈️
    BOS (61-21) | ✈️
    OKC (68-14) | TBD

  11. One step closer to the Villanova Finals.

    God and the Pope’s will be done.

  12. Props to the Knicks. The better, hungrier, more serious team won. Awesome championship caliber roster they’ve put together.

    Miss me with that Ewing Theory bullshit with Tatum for good. All these guys are worse off with him not taking the focus off them. Gonna miss him badly next season.

  13. 6 years ago the Knicks started the season with a five of: Frank Ntilikina, Tim Hardaway Jr, Enes Kanter, Trey Burke, and Lance Thomas. Let us have this.

  14. Lenny Kravitz never takes a day off man, he always looks like Lenny Kravitz.

  15. BING BONG, it’s gonna take more than the national guards to calm these streets.

  16. YOU DONT KNOW THE FUCKING LINEUPS I HAD TO SIT THROUGH IN MY LIFE! FUCKING RON BAKER. SEE YOU SOON PACERS KNICKS IN 6

  17. Congrats to the Knicks fans. One of the most loyal fan bases in America. Run it up

  18. I became a Knicks fan during the Isaiah Thomas scandal era. Yeah, that one. The sexual harassment lawsuit, the Marbury-Eddy Curry chaos, the absolute dysfunction from the top down. I didn’t choose an easy time to fall in love with this team. But I stuck with them—through every miserable chapter.

    I watched us trade half our roster for a fading T-Mac just to clear cap space. I believed in Jordan Hill (for a minute), and then watched us pass on Steph Curry for him. I lived through “Knicks for LeBron” only to get Amar’e’s knees on borrowed time. And yeah, I was hyped for Linsanity—only to see Dolan let it go over pennies and pride.

    I remember when Andrea Bargnani cost us a first-round pick. I remember Phil Jackson using the triangle like it was 1996. Fizdale’s “take that for data” moment felt like a win. Knox over Shai, trading Porzingis for cap space, paying $70M for Julius and Elfrid Payton and friends, and watching Trae Young bow on our court.

    But through it all, I stayed. We stayed. The real ones know the heartbreak. The memes. The jokes. The ESPN hit pieces. The Dolan bans. The “hopeless franchise” label.

    And now… 2025. We’re in the EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS. For the first time since 2000.

    Jalen Brunson is HIM. Josh Hart is heart. Thibs—yeah, I doubted him—has this squad grinding for every inch. This isn’t luck. This is a f**king team. Built not bought.

    I’ve never been more proud to wear orange and blue.

    Let’s bring it home. One step at a time.

    GO NEW YORK GO!!
