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

[tlance]

It’s really not longer travel if it is Indiana this year though.

They set the dates before they know the teams

 

[Pastafazul]

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?

Do not see how childish you could be

If anyone even posts something remotely close to what I do you you go on the attack

 

[Pastafazul]

Well, they outlasted 2 teams that most would say were better all year (including you, at least with the Celtics).

So there is that.

But your insistence on Thibs being the thing holding them back is just another example of you straddling the fence.

If they win?

Hey! You are going to claim being right.

If they lose to the Pacers?

You are going to claim it is Thibs fault and that you are still right.

Even though the Knicks aren’t still playing if Thibs didn’t drastically out coach Mazzula.

The 2019 Raptors were not a better basketball team than the Warriors. But things happened and they won a title anyway.

And that is all that really matters.

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

I'm not going to derail this thread, but it shines a light into someone having a nostalgic opinion of MJ.

People didn’t have a problem derailing the thread comparing Shai’s game to MJ so have at it I guess

The problem with sports is all too often fans get uneasy and try to force teams to make bad decisions like this

You know why the Steelers have had this incredible run of consistency? Because they don't fire their coaches every five seconds.

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.

What nostalgia? I was too young to remember his absolute peak. If anything, one would presume I'd be arguing for Kobe.

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

 

[thunderc]

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

I guess the behavior expected then is act like an ass if your son is the franchise player and get to be in the suite.

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

I’m guessing it was his choice not to be in a suite to begin with
