Series Thread: Eastern Conference Finals: (3) New York Knicks vs. (4) Indiana Pacers

So they are letting Haliburtons Dad back in the arena but he has to stay in the suite. What a punishment lol.

Should have always been the initial punishment. Just keep him away from court side. Did you want him banned for life? He missed over a round of home games. That’s enough punishment

 

[thunderc]

Is he allowed to throw stuff at the Knicks bench from the suite?

Yes they give him one of those t shirt launcher like things

I really don’t care about it honestly, he should have kicked Giannis ass.

Good luck with that

The Yankees only started winning more when Steinbrenner stopped firing people every 3 seconds

It also makes me feel extremely old that most people under 40 would have no clue what I'm talking about.

Wonder how accurate he is with a slingshot?

 

[trojanfan12]

D

Dude quit hurting yourself

I don't know...watching him kick his own ass is kind of entertaining.

 

[trojanfan12]

It’s just the way it is here in NY, I don’t make the rules. It’s a win right away mentality. Got to justify the price of all things.

Win right away?

lol

Why has it taken them 25 years then?

How many times did he fire Billy Martin? Like 8? lol

Yeah, he had to miss a few games, which is fair. While watching the game from a suite doesn't seem like much punishment, it accomplishes making sure it doesn't happen again.

Also, speaking as a Dad, if that's my son...I want to be courtside...so it's still a bit of a punishment.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

How many times did he fire Billy Martin? Like 8?didn't.

5 times lol

Fired Dick Howser after a 103 and 59 season. Howser ends up winning the WS with the Royals

He has a PHd in dumbfuckery.

 

[tlance]

Seriously, dude you have no clue

Have a question for you…

If a player played for a team with less chances of winning it all , then gets moved to another team with better chances , and they win it all does he not deserve the same respect as the team who were together all year .

Did he not put in the same work to achieve the goal of winning?

Things change bro… I go with the flow

Thibs is gone, lots of fans want him gone, they usually get what they want in NY, if they win he stays, maybe

What are you even talking about?

Any team that wins deserves respect. It is the ultimate accomplishment in the sport.

And they deserve everything that comes with it. They are champs. That is what matters.

But as I said, the best team doesn’t always win. If they did, there would be no reason to even play the games.

That is what sports are about. The journey and the excitement of watching the unexpected unfold.

Says a true lance loyal NH

There is not a single person here that follows me.

The problem is you are wrong most of the time, and too stubborn to acknowledge.

Then when everyone calls you on it, you assume we are alts or ganging up or some nonsense.

But I argue with all of the people you claim to be my followers at times.

Just everyone is on the same page against you because some of your takes are just that far off.

Again…

What have I lied about?

What have I been wrong about?

You have been sayin this for years , yet you have yet put one single thing on here to support your claims .

Let's start with an easy one. You are wrong to keep posting that Thibs is a bad coach who should be fired

I hope and pray you realize how wrong you are in posting this, in that it hasn’t happened yet , and that it is very good chance, and I believe it will happen, I guarantee it, if Knicks lose.

How many chances do you give a coach who has had different players with the same results, and you lose to same team twice in consecutive years tryin to get to promised land.

This ain’t about gettin your team to PS!

You asked what you post that's wrong. That's one of the many things.

 

[PPhan]

Eh.

Doesn’t matter at that point.

But the best team in the league doesn’t always win the title.

Which has been part of my point.

Of course the title is all the really matters.

And being somewhere between 3rd and 10th best?

Who really cares about that?

No. We've been through this before. If OKC for example fails to win the title with all their players healthy, then they weren't the best team in the league. You can say they had the most talent, but that's where it stops.
