NFT: PLAYOFF BOUND KNICKS VS. SPURS 7;30PM

loss by the Heat to the Sixers. The Knicks win the direct tie breaker with the Hawks since they went 3-0 against them in the regular season.

One of our sons bought us two tickets months ago for the experience of a low-attendance game at MSG. (We used to have season tix so he has good memories.) Didn't expect it would end up being a high-stakes game!

Nice. Have fun. Go 76ers! Go Magic!

What a great year. Would love to get the 4 seed locked up.

What is the deal for the playoffs attendance? Is it being increased? Haven't followed but I would love to get to a game.

5700 may 19th, hopefully more as the playoffs go, islanders made a deal with cuomo for 50%

Quickley remains questionable..

How do you "make a deal" on something that's supposed to be based on science and safety?

Supposedly they sent a letter to cuomo and they got their arena set at 50%

Really hoping to fly up for a game @ MSG.

Upgraded to probably for tonight's game

Quickley is listed as Questionable.

Are 1 pm eastern start times

regardless of where we land in the bracket. Two of three seems doable here.

Rose is out..

I wonder if they are just resting Rose because he was probable..Wonder once Quick was good to go they decided to give rose the night off

Probably more to do with Burks running the point on the 2nd team.

Love that, as wife & I got wedding Saturday @ 5, but should be good to watch it all.

Lol we average saying it about 2.5 times per game

Haha. In group chat with my old man & 3 other Knicks fans...'Payton fucking sucks' is pretty much autocorrect for us all, Haha.

..

One can predict each Knicks game: Elfrid goes in, sucks...Rose comes in & rallies the team either from behind or makes them expand their lead.

if Rose gets hurt

..

One & done.

If D-Rose is 100%, I think we can go toe to toe with whoever.

I don’t even remember him getting hurt. What happened — Although now thinking about I kinda remember him like half limping for the entire 4th quarter (or not limping but just running “gingerly” or whatever )

Sprained left knee. No idea how serious. I hope it's just them being cautious.

Agreed let’s hope so. Luckily playoffs don’t start for 10 days—

Still not exactly sure why we were supposed to be happy they beat the Celtics

ankle, he was probable tonight, so clearly its a rest day

Yes, ankle, not knee. I always get the two confused.

Heat kicking Philly's ass right now...Ugh.

..

..

Both ATL & Miami up double digits right now. Hawks end season with Rockets...what a joke.

And we freaking suck tonight

welp hello Milwaukee

..

Not pretty tonight with Rose out but let’s see if we can still get this one— doesn’t have to be pretty just have to get it done . Then we just need to win the last 2 and hope Miami loses to Milwaukee and boom— 4 seed.

didnt like Randle taking that last shot, should of been burks

The starters are low on minutes it seems . I think they’re avoiding the physicality of Miami and just rolling the dice that they’ll beat the Magic twice and clinch the 1 seed.

I think they only need 1 more win to clinch the 1 seed?

You’re right idky thought Nets had the tiebreaker over them. So yeah they’re resting up and then betting they can figure a way to beat the Magic at least 1 out of 2 . Makes sense. I bet the last thing they would want to do is show the Heat anything meaningful tonight considering the Heat have clearly proven they could be a threat to come out of the East.

We should’ve beaten the Lakers when we had the chance. Can’t rely on other teams.

I feel like everyone is penciling the 76ers, Nets, or Bucks into Finals...don't sleep on the Heat. They are damn good. They got destroyed by COVID early, but have been coming on. They got playoff experience. I want nothing to do with them.
