Name a more classic Duo Knicks coach and injured players
Cavs got this ❤
We built for this. NY all day.
This is a bad match up for the Knicks cavs height will be too much for them
Wear JB out. It will work
Knicks in 5
So is Stephen A telling the Knicks to injure Mobley or Allen to get one out of the game? That sounds like a NY Knicks fan 💀
The mad dog thought he did something there , red suit ?? Nahh orange bro , you said they were gonna sweep , nahh I said 7 , get this clown off the show please
STEVEN A SMITH IS FUNNY 🤣 .HE HAS LOST HIS MINE.
I am a Knicks fan BUT when these talking heads jumped on the bandwagon saying they would crush the Cavs in 4 – i said to myself OH NO – and never believed this series would be a cake walk – the Cavs are a good team and were not about to lay down – and they out played us and beat us up physically in game 2 and my Knicks played very poorly on all levels – hoping the Knicks can rebound at MSG
sit RJ
simple.
Mitchell did what he had to do, get his teammates involved by taking less shots. Cleveland outplayed us plain and simple. I still believe Knicks will win in 7.
Cavs in six sorry knicks lossers
A fool and his words Cavs in six
Cleveland isn't going to be able too repeat this same game plan in Madison Square Garden so it's understandable that game 2 was won in Cleveland.
JJ Reddick would be a great coach
Still got Knicks in 7 keep sleeping on us we going back to the crib to a real city.
I truly agree Stephen A is rooting against the Knicks in his own way he can't stand Dolan and the Knicks organization!!! It's all about Jinks Jinks Jinks. Also I think THEY SHOULD BAND HIM FROM MSG FOR LIFE, but who cares about what I think!!! 😊
I truly didn’t expect the Knicks to be so rattled by the pressure. They looked lost and flustered. I hope Thibs got some tricks up his sleeve or its gonna be a repeat of the Hawks series 2 years ago.
Got ya
As I said, Knicks were gonna lose one in Cleveland. They need to win two of three in MSG. And win game six somehow someway.
I'll take Mitchell over Brunson any day of the week. The Knicks messed up as always not getting him.
F—k that Knicks in 6
cavs in 5. they solved the knicks and thibs cant adjust. donovan gonna make the knicks cry on what they missed out on while no J barret clunks away and randle spins himself into turnovers all game while brunson is triple trapped with no help.
Knicks in 6. Cavs NEEDED to win that game. Adjustments will be made and the Knicks wont shoot that bad. IQ and Grimes will wake up
Mad Dog knows exactly what he’s talking about Knicks teams historically choke under the pressure at home, Stephen A is totally jinxing them!
Knick Fan All Day Every Day !!! Now listen America 🇺🇸 these games are controlled by the ZEBRAS !!! THE NBA IS A ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS ( PLAIN AND SIMPLE ) if you watch the 2nd game ( the 2nd Qt was all you should have saw ) all it takes is a few non calls and it's OVER !!! Not gonna take away what Cleveland did ( GREAT JOB ) but it's a different story Fri night ( FACTS ) THIS series and many more has to go six or seven ( REVENUE For The NBA ) Take the Lakers game Wed night!! Did you see the BS on display by the Lakers !! If not just go and watch ( CHANNEL 0 ) THIS process has been going on FOREVER and the Best Teams Don't always win !!! Now That I Informed Yall on the BS that's always happens !!! LETS GO KNICK ( KNICKS IN 6 TAKE THAT TO THE BANK 🏦 ) GOOD LUCK CAVS PEACE ✌
Bro, stephen a poking the fucking bear, especially when all the knick players have been doing their best not provoke anyone on cavs especially mitchell
The Cavs are a young team as well . I think the Garden is going to be rocking on Friday . Your going to see the inexperience of the Cavs in game 3 .
That chick needs to be gone off of 1st take she's very disrespectful to men
Stephen A smith just jinxed us 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️… he is motivating the cavs more and more everytime he talk
Cavs will get blown out game 3. 20 point loss. But I think they’ll split the games at the Garden.
Cavs will buck up and will win game 4 but it will be a slugfest. Might be a 2 point game and come down two a few free throws.
Both teams hobble back to Cleveland and Cavs win game 5 handily I believe. Game 6. Knicks might very well respond in the first quarter but I think will be pressured hard being down 3-2.
Cavs in 6
I can't wait to see the talking head A.Smith eat his words on Monday when the cavs go up 2-1. Delicious 😋
