Knicks is NY basketball 90s vibes all over again. No game 7 you want to finish these sixers off and move on.

[@boris2997]

Let's goo KNICKS 🙌 💪 🧡💙💭🗯💨

This Series Ain't Going 7 Games

[@ThePinkrabit91]

Game 7 ? Nah they need rest for the next team match.i hope they close it at game 5 !

4

[@christianmiller2321]

The boyssss is back in town

[@heliossantana5115]

I think Mitch should be starting this series. He's better defending and rebounding over Embiid. IHart is much better on the second unit. And I wish more lob situations were set up for Mitch.

[@Reecesavage-Alwayswin]

If Philly drop this home game its over with, they might rest Embiid.

[@SimpreOroNuncaPlata]

Let’s go Knicks

[@remymorgan9630]

Who TF wants 7 games of this????!😮😮😮 Get them out of here in 4!! 😡 🤬 😠 😡 🤬 😠

[@rthompson1330]

I want no part of 7 games. The way these games are, 4 or 5 is enough. I don't need cardiac arrest for 2 or 3 extra games😅

[@DemoTrucking]

If Thibs gives Achuwa 5 mins in each half go 9 deep instead of 8 we might have a chance. We are ti small at the 4

[@acidfromhell]

I would like to see a linuep of McBride, DiVicenzo, Anunoby, Achiuwa and Robinson for 5 minutes if we are up. Tell them to be aggressive on the boards for rebounds and putbacks and to shoot those 3's.

[@K_Reezee75]

Knicks got to knock them out early in game 3. None of this playing from behind garbage that happend the last 2 games. The 3rd quarter use to be a problem for the Knicks. Now its the 1st quarter. Get the 1st qaurter of play fixed.

[@jc09113]

The 1st quarter is where usually Julius wrecks havoc. Would have been nice to have him.

[@Bonsai-Sage]

Wait until we start hitting shots. These would be blowouts

[@megabkny]

7 Games? They Should Be Drug Tested Respectfully

[@WawaMarvel]

Why not. Game 1 rebounding won it and hart had the best shooting night he could imagine. Brunson locked. Knicks didn’t win by that much. Game 2, Brunson contained, 6ers were winning and the refs called nothing on the knock for over a minute of time, confirmed in the report. You can find it and see. So that’s a game they should have lost and the first game was saved by hart and hustle. Nice. Add now, embiid is playing in one leg and Maxey has an illness. They still scored 30 ish with no one else doing much for 6ers. Those were 2 close escapes. Game one was solid. The 6ers haven’t had a good game yet abd the Knick barely winning. If the 6ers won 3 straight, that wouldn’t be shocking at all.

[@darkprince7385]

@@WawaMarvelthis is a playoff series where u expect the games to be close..Knicks may win every game that’s 3pts or less. Who cares long as u pick up the win.

[@shandiseamador9085]

Knicks players and coach is not worrying about that bs report. How about when they break out the 46 mins report comes out. Stop crying. Let’s go Knicks

[@AnthonyFernandez23]

As a Knicks fan I think they are.

[@rthompson1330]

This series isnt going 7 games. Knivks will win in 5 was my prediction b4 the series started

[@stevenveganightowl12]

If Brunson continues to struggle it goes to 7 games, if he plays lights out the next couple of games, the Knicks win in 6.

[@jovictor9064]

Deuce is loose, Deuces Wild, Big Ragu, 3vincenzo, Brunson Burner , Brunshim , Bodega, Bogey, Baby Jokic, Mitch Lobinson, Thanos, With nicknames like that... how can they lose?

[@marmcflyy]

I knew wen kawhi took them out the way he did , embiid wasnt built for this

[@wook1990]

This is a very stupid comment. You're judging somebody based on an all-time lucky shot bouncing around the rim until it fell through the net. Horrible take.

[@Newyorkballazzz]

@@wook1990what’s he done since

[@wook1990]

@@Newyorkballazzz The same thing the Knicks have done since then and since 1973. Nothing. As a matter of fact, Joel Embiid has more playoff series wins since 2021 than the Knicks have playoff series wins since 2000.

[@pillsburidoughboi]

Knicks in 5

[@yaweli2968]

Embiid has fucked up knees so he isn’t going to jump for a rebound. It has less to do with him being gassed. Also, he is omitted painkillers. Watch his face, his eyes.

[@lyriktehuti]

We are NOT playing our best.

[@ocsorrells]

It is just plain STUPID to be playing Joel. He is not healthy and his knee is not going to get better. They are not going to win a championship with Joel injured. You are risking further damage.

[@PhyuckYiu2]

Some people don’t need to have their opinions on a platform and this video is an example of that. Wanting to see your team take a series to 7 is asinine because they’ll be exhausted if they advance to the next round.

[@Skullroyal]

He literally said “As a KNICKS Fan I wanted to go 5 which was my prediction but as a BASKETBALL fan, maybe like 6 or 7” Me who is a Knicks fan wants a sweep even though my prediction was also we would win the series in game 5 but as a Basketball fan who enjoys the game and how entertaining the series, having the series go to game 6 or 7 would be awesome as a basketball fan

[@jxmmykriminallive]

just because you disagree w the opinion means that opinion shouldn’t be shared lol?

[@PhyuckYiu2]

@@Skullroyal that’s great and all but there’s other games happening to watch that don’t require your team to exhaust themselves for the love of basketball.

Brunson is to short for play off. Yes, he was great in season, but so far on play off he disappeared

[@ckq]

But he outplaued Jimmy Butler and Donovan Mitchell last year.

[@Carizion]

If you look at Brunson, he looks more like he's over thinking rather than being fluid. I think tonight's game, he gonna be locked in.

They roughing that man up. These whistles are different in the playoffs and they're defending him like it.

Bro joel hurt not gassed he's not 100 percent

[@teddystoldt9782]

I don’t think a knee injury changes your cardio

[@teddystoldt9782]

If you watch he is tired. Yes his knee is hurt but he is also exhausted

[@aas55]

Maybe both? Conditioning may be why he fades as the game goes on and he’s playing a lot of minutes. But his limp gets more noticeable, and they’re working on his knee in the second half. So I think the knee bothers him more the more he plays
